Published: January 2024

New ambuic acid derivatives, pestallic acids R-V (1-5), together with ambuic acid (6), were isolated from the endophytic fungus Pestalotiopsis trachicarpicola SC-J551 derived from the fern Blechnum orientale L., of which compound 2, being racemic, was separated to two optically pure enantiomers (+)-2 and (-)-2. The structures including absolute configurations of these new compounds were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic analysis and theoretical simulations of their ECD spectra and C NMR chemical shifts. Compounds 1 and 3 exhibited cytotoxicity against human carcinoma A549, HeLa, HepG2, and MCF-7 cells (IC: 3.6-12.5 μM) and compound 3 was also active against Staphylococcus aureus and MRSA (MIC = 20 μg ml). Compound (±)-2 showed inhibitory activity against LPS-induced NO release (IC = 21.1 μM) and t-BHP-induced ROS production (IC = 8.5 μM) in RAW264.7 macrophages.

Chemical prospection of an extract derived from a saprotrophic fungus Lachnum sp. IW157 resulted in the isolation and characterization of six unprecedentedly reported ambuic acid analogues named lachnuoic acids A-F (1-6). Chemical structures of 1-6 were determined based on comprehensive 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopic analyses together with HR-ESI-MS spectrometry.

Quorum sensing inhibitor (QSI) has been attracting attention as anti-virulence agent which disarms pathogens of their virulence rather than killing them. QSI marking cyclic peptide-mediated QS in Gram-positive bacteria is an effective tool to overcome the crisis of antibiotic-dependent chemotherapy due to the emergence of drug resistance strain, e.g.
