Conclusions:Cytochalasin D inhibits CT26 tumor growth potentially through inhibition of cell proliferation,induction of cell apoptosis and suppression of tumor angiogenesis.展开更多

Their structures were elucidated by detailed interpretation of NMR spectroscopic and mass spectrometric data. The absolute configurations were confirmed by NOESY experiments as well as by DP4+ and ECD calculations. Differed from common cytochalasins, compound 1 is an uncommon secocytochalasin featuring the ester group cleaved between C-9 and C-23, and incorporating an additional oxygenated C4 unit which coupled with C-20 and C-22 to form a new substituted cyclohexenone moiety, while compound 2 contains an unusual 2–hydroxy-3-oxobutan-2-yl unit at C-22. Both compounds are distinctive from the commonly described cytochalasins. Compound 1 exhibited potent activity against angiotensinI-converting enzyme(ACE) whereas compound 2 showed antibacterial activity. Molecular docking simulations were performed to explore the intermolecular interaction of compounds 1 and 2 with ACE.展开更多

IFB-E060 in Vatica mangachapoi. METHOD: Isolation and purification were performed through silica gel column chromatography, gel filtration over Sephadex LH-20, ODS column chromatography, and HPLC. Structures of the isolated compounds were elucidated by a combination of spectroscopic analyses(UV, CD, IR, MS, 1D, and 2D NMR). The cytotoxicity of the isolates was evaluated in vitro by the MTT method against the human hepatocarcinoma cell line SMMC-7721. RESULTS: Five compounds were isolated from the solid culture of the endophyte Phomopsis sp. IFB-E060 and their structures were identified as 18-methoxy cytochalasin J(1), cytochalasin H(2),(22E, 24S)-cerevisterol(3), ergosterol(4), and nicotinic acid(5). Compound 1 had an inhibition rate of 24.4% at 10 μg·mL-1 and 2 had an IC50 value of 15.0 μg·mL-1, while a positive control 5-fluorouracil had an inhibition rate of 28.7% at 10 μg·mL-1. CONCLUSION: 18-Methoxy cytochalasin J(1), produced by endophytic Phomopsis sp. IFB-E060, is a new cytochalasin with weak cytotoxicity to the human hepatocarcinoma cell line SMMC-7721.展开更多
