Bioactive metabolites from the endophytic fungus Ampelomyces sp. isolated from the medicinal plant Urospermum picroides

Extracts of cultures grown in liquid or on solid rice media of the fungal endophyte Ampelomyces sp. isolated from the medicinal plant Urospermum picroides exhibited considerable cytotoxic activity when tested in vitro against L5178Y cells. Chromatographic separation yielded 14 natural products that were unequivocally identified based on their ¹H and ¹³C NMR as well as mass spectra and comparison with previously published data. Six compounds (2, 4, 5, 7, 9 and 11) were natural products. Both fungal extracts differed considerably in their secondary metabolites. The extract obtained from liquid cultures afforded a pyrone (2) and sulfated anthraquinones (7 and 9) along with the known compounds 1, 3, 6 and 8. When grown on solid rice medium the fungus yielded three compounds 4, 5 and 11 in addition to several known metabolites including 6, 8, 10, 12, 13 and 14. Compounds 4, 8 and 10 showed the strongest cytotoxic activity against L5178Y cells with EC₅₀ values ranging from 0.2–7.3 μg/ml. Furthermore, 8 and 10 displayed antimicrobial activity against the Gram-positive pathogens, Staphylococcus aureus, S. epidermidis and Enterococcus faecalis at minimal inhibitory concentrations (MIC) of 12.5 μg/ml and 12.5–25 μg/ml, respectively. Interestingly, 6 and 8 were also identified as constituents of an extract derived from a healthy plant sample of the host plant U. picroides thereby indicating that the production of bioactive natural products by the endophyte proceeds also under in situ conditions within the host plant.

地衣型真菌石果衣(疣孢菌科，子囊菌门)次级代谢产物的多样性

地衣能够产生大量的新型次级代谢产物,但以往对石果衣Endocarpon pusillum的研究中未能检测出任何次级代谢产物。然而,对其共生菌进行基因组测序发现其中含有14个沉默的PKS基因和2个沉默的NRPS基因。在此研究中,为激活其途径,使用了优化马铃薯培养基和大米培养基对石果衣共生真菌进行了培养。从优化马铃薯培养物中分离得到9个次级代谢产物,包括2个新的异吲哚-1-酮类化合物(1, 2)。而从大米培养物中分离到3个已知化合物和1个新的萘醌类化合物(9)。通过核磁共振和质谱数据确定了新化合物的结构。研究结果表明,大量地衣中未能检测出任何次级代谢产物,或仅能检测出少量次级代谢产物,可能与其基因组中的沉默基因有关。因此,通过对沉默基因的激活方法为地衣次级代谢产物资源的研究与开发开辟了有效途径。     

Studies on Bacillus stearothermophilus. Part 1. Transformation of progesterone to a new metabolite 9,10-seco-4-pregnene-3,9,20-trione.

When Bacillus stearothermophilus, a thermophilic bacterium isolated from the Kuwaiti desert, was incubated with exogenous progesterone for 24 h, three monohydroxylated metabolites were produced. 20-Hydroxyprogesterone was the major metabolite produced in 60.8 relative percentage yield. The other two monohydroxylated metabolites were identified as 6β-hydroxyprogesterone and the rare 6-hydroxyprogesterone in 21.0 and 13.6 relative percentage yields, respectively. A new metabolite 9,10-seco-4-pregnene-3,9,20-trione was isolated in 3.7 relative percentage yield. All metabolites were purified by preparative TLC and HPLC followed by their identification using ¹H, ¹³C NMR and other spectroscopic data.     

Radical-scavenging activity of butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) and its metabolites

To clarify the radical-scavenging activity of butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), a food additive, stoichiometric factors (n) and inhibition rate constants (k_inh) were determined for 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol (BHT) and its metabolites 2,6-di-tert-butyl-p-benzoquinone (BHT-Q), 3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxybenzaldehyde (BHA-CHO) and 3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroperoxy-4-methyl-2,5-cyclohexadiene-1-one (BHT-OOH). Values of n and k_inh were determined from differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) monitoring of the polymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA) initiated by 2,2′-azobis(isobutyronitrile) (AIBN) or benzoyl peroxide (BPO) at 70 °C in the presence or absence of antioxidants (BHT-related compounds). The n values declined in the order BHT (1–2) > BHT-CHO, BHT-OOH (0.1–0.3) > BHT-Q (0). The n value for BHT with AIBN was approximately 1.0, suggesting dimerization of BHT. The k_inh values declined in the order BHT-Q ((3.5–4.6)×10⁴ M⁻¹ s⁻¹) > BHT-OOH (0.7–1.9×10⁴ M⁻¹ s⁻¹) > BHT-CHO ((0.4–1.7)×10⁴ M⁻¹ s⁻¹) > BHT ((0.1–0.2)×10⁴ M⁻¹ s⁻¹). The k_inh for metabolites was greater than that for the parent BHT. Growing MMA radicals initiated by BPO were suppressed much more efficiently by BHT or BHT-Q compared with those initiated by AIBN. BHT was effective as a chain-breaking antioxidant.     

Heterobimetallic aggregates of copper(I) with thiotungstates and thiomolybdates. Synthesis and characterization of polymeric (NEt4)3[Cu4(NCS)5WS4], (NEt4)2[(CuNCS)3WS4] and (NEt4)2[(CuNCS)4WS4], M = Mo, W

Reaction of (NEt₄)₂MS₄ (M = Mo, W) with CuCl and KSCN (or NH₄SCN) in acetone or acetonitrile affords a new set of mixed metal–sulfur compounds: infinite anionic chains Cu₄(NCS)₅MS_4³⁻ (1,2), (CuNCS)₃WS_4²⁻ (3) and two dimensional polymeric dianions (CuNCS)₄MS_4²⁻ (4,5). Crystal of 1 (M = W) and 3 are triclinic, space group P1(1:a = 10.356(2),b = 15.039(1),c = 17.356(2)Å, = 78.27(1)°, β = 88.89(2)° and γ = 88.60(1)°,Z = 2,R = 0.04 for 3915 independent data;3:a = 8.449(2),b = 14.622(4),c = 15.809(8)Å, = 61.84(3)°, β = 73.67(3)° and γ = 78.23(2)°,Z = 2,R = 0.029 for 6585 independent data). Crystals of 4 (M = W) and 5 (M = Mo) are monoclinic, space group P2₁/m,Z = 2 (4:a = 12.296(4),b = 14.794(4),c = 10.260(3)Åand β = 101.88(3)°,R = 0.034 for 4450 independent data;5:a = 12.306(2),b = 14.809(3),c = 10.257(2)Åand β = 101.99(3)°,R = 0.043 for 3078 independent data). The crystal structure determinations of 4 and 5 show that four edges of the tetrahedral MS_4²⁻ core are coordinated by copper atoms forming WS₄Cu₄ aggregates linked by eight-membered Cu(NCS)₂Cu rings. A two-dimensional network is thus formed in the diagonal (101) plane. The space between the anionic two-dimensional networks is filled with the NEt_4⁺ cations. Additional NCS groups lead to the [Cu₄(NCS)₅WS₄]³⁻ (1) trianion connected by NCS bridges forming pseudo-dimers. These latter are held together by weak CuS(NCS) interactions giving rise to infinite chains along a direction parallel to [100]. In contrast complex3 develops infinite chains from WS₄Cu₃ aggregates with the same Cu(NCS)₂Cu bridges as in 4 and 5. These chains are running along a direction parallel to [010]. The structural data of the different types of polymeric compounds containing MS_4²⁻ and CuNCS have been used to interpret vibrational spectroscopic data of the thiocyanate groups.     

One-electron reduction of selenomethionine oxide

Experimental evidence is provided that selenomethionine oxide (MetSeO) is more readily reducible than its sulfur analogue, methionine sulfoxide (MetSO). Pulse radiolysis experiments reveal an efficient reaction of MetSeO with one-electron reductants, such as e^-_aq (k = 1.2 × 10¹⁰M^-1s^-1), CO^·-₂ (k = 5.9 × 10⁸ M^-1s^-1) and (CH₃)₂) C^·OH (k = 3.5 × 10⁷M^-1s^-1), forming an intermediate selenium-nitrogen coupled zwitterionic radical with the positive charge at an intramolecularly formed Se_∴ N 2σ/1σ* three-electron bond, which is characterized by an optical absorption with λ_max at 375 nm, and a half-life of about 70 μs. The same transient is generated upon HO^· radical-induced one-electron oxidation of selenomethionine (MetSe). This radical thus constitutes the redox intermediate between the two oxidation states, MetSeO and MetSe. Time-resolved optical data further indicate sulfur-selenium interactions between the Se_∴ N transient and GSH. The Se_∴ N transient appears to play a key role in the reduction of selenomethionine oxide by glutathione.
