Four new compounds, asperisocoumarin G (1), asperisocoumarin H (2), (±)-asperisocoumarin I [(±)-3], along with the known pergillin (4) and penicisochroman L (5) were isolated from a mangrove endophytic fungus Aspergillus sp. 085242 by further chemical investigation. The structures of the new compounds, including their absolute configurations, were established by analysis of HR-ESI-MS and NMR spectroscopic data, and ECD calculation. Asperisocoumarins G-I (1-3) were new isocoumarins belonging to the class of furo[3, 2-h]isocoumarins which are rarely found in natural sources. All of the isolated compounds were evaluated for their α-glucosidase inhibitory effects, and compounds 1 and 4 showed moderate α-glucosidase inhibitory activity, respectively. In an antimicrobial test, the racemate of 3 showed antibacterial activity against Salmonella.

Studies on the chemical composition of endophytic fungus , isolated from the L., by using epigenetic modification to activate clusters of biosynthetic genes that are silenced or poorly expressed in fungi, resulting in obtainment of ten polyketides. Among these compounds were six new compounds, including cytosporin E2 (), cytosporin D1 (), cytosporin G1 (), cytosporin J1 (), cytosporin K1 (), cytosporin F1 (), and four known compounds, cytosporin E (), cytosporin Y3 (), cytosporin D (), and cytosporin L ().

Three previously undescribed steroid-polyketone conjugates, talarergosteroids A-C (-), together with talarergosteroid D (), which was first identified from a natural source, were isolated from a derived fungus sp. SCNU-F0041. Compounds and bear a complicated 6/6/6/5/6/6 hexacyclic ring system characterized by an oxaspiro[5.

Background: Avicennia marina ecosystems are critical for coastal protection, water quality enhancement, and biodiversity support. These unique ecosystems thrive in extreme saline conditions and host a diverse microbiome that significantly contributes to plant resilience and growth. Global food security is increasingly threatened by crop yield losses due to abiotic stresses, including saline soils.

Under the guidance of LC‒MS/MS-based molecular networking, three previously undescribed berkeleyacetal type meroterpenoids, amestolknoids A-C (1-3), together with ten known analogues (4-13) were isolated and identified from the mangrove endophytic fungus Talaromyces amestolkiae SCNU-F0041. Amestolknoids A (1) and B (2) are unprecedentedly congested 6/7/6/5/5/5/5 heptacyclic scaffolds characterized by two chiral spiroketal centers. Amestolknoids A (1) and C (3) represent the first examples of chlorinated berkeleyacetal type meroterpenoids.
