Furanaspermeroterpenes A (1) and B (2), with a unique 6/6/6/5/5 pentacyclic skeleton, and five new congeners aspermeroterpenes D-H (3-7) were co-isolated from the marine-derived fungus Aspergillus terreus GZU-31-1. Among them, compounds 1 and 2 with rare five-membered D/E coupling rings were the first example of DMOA-derived meroterpenoids. Moreover, compound 3 was the first reported 6/6/6/6/5 pentacyclic meroterpenoid featuring an unusual cis-fused A/B ring. In the bioassays, all of the isolates were evaluated on the inhibitory activities against lipopolysaccharide-induced nitric oxide production in RAW 264.7 cells, and compounds 3-7 exhibited significant anti-inflammatory activity with IC values ranging from 6.74 to 29.59 μM than positive control (Indomethacin, IC 30.98 μM).

Six new highly oxygenated and polycyclic andrastin-type meroterpenoids, namely, bialorastins A-F (1-6), were discovered from the culture of Penicillium bialowiezense CS-283, a fungus isolated from the deep-sea cold seep squat lobster Shinkaia crosnieri. The planar structures and absolute configurations of these compounds were determined by detailed analysis of spectroscopic data, single crystal X-ray diffraction, and TDDFT-ECD calculations. Structurally, bialorastin A (1) represents a rare 17-nor-andrastin that possesses an unusual 2-oxaspiro[4.

Four new compounds including three andrastin-type meroterpenoids hemiacetalmeroterpenoids A-C (-), and a drimane sesquiterpenoid astellolide Q (), together with eleven known compounds (-) were isolated from the cultures of the marine-derived fungus sp. N-5, while compound was first isolated from a natural source. The structures of the new compounds were determined by analysis of detailed spectroscopic data, and the absolute configurations were further decided by a comparison of the experimental and calculated ECD spectra.
