Butenolides from the Coral-Derived Fungus Aspergillius terreus SCSIO41404.

ABSTRACT: Five undescribed butenolides including two pairs of enantiomers, (+)-asperteretal G (1a), (-)-asperteretal G (1b), (+)-asperteretal H (2a), (-)-asperteretal H (2b), asperteretal I (3), and para-hydroxybenzaldehyde derivative, (S)-3-(2,3-dihydroxy-3-methylbutyl)-4-hydroxybenzaldehyde (14), were isolated together with ten previously reported butenolides 4-13, from the coral-derived fungus Aspergillus terreus SCSIO41404. Enantiomers 1a/1b and 2a/2b were successfully purified by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) using a chiral column, and the enantiomers 1a and 1b were new natural products. Structures of the unreported compounds, including the absolute configurations, were elucidated by NMR and MS data, optical rotation, experimental and calculated electronic circular dichroism, induced circular dichroism, and X-ray crystal data. The isolated butenolides were evaluated for antibacterial, cytotoxic, and enzyme inhibitory activities. Compounds 7 and 12 displayed weak antibacterial activity, against Enterococcus faecalis (IC50 = 25 μg/mL) and Klebsiella pneumoniae (IC50 = 50 μg/mL), respectively, whereas 6 showed weak inhibitory effect on acetylcholinesterase. Nevertheless, most of the butenolides showed inhibition against pancreatic lipase (PL) with an inhibition rate of 21.2-73.0% at a concentration of 50 μg/mL.

Project description:As a part of the important species that form coral reef ecosystems, stony corals have become a potential source of pharmacologically active lead compounds for an increasing number of compounds with novel chemical structures and strong biological activity. In this study, the secondary metabolites and biological activities are reported for Aspergillus terreus C21-1, an epiphytic fungus acquired from Porites pukoensis collected from Xuwen Coral Reef Nature Reserve, China. This strain was cultured in potato dextrose broth (PDB) media and rice media with different salinities based on the OSMAC strategy. The mycelial morphology and high-performance thin layer chromatographic (HPTLC) fingerprints of the fermentation extracts together with bioautography were recorded. Furthermore, an untargeted metabolomics study was performed using principal component analysis (PCA), orthogonal projection to latent structure discriminant analysis (O-PLSDA), and feature-based molecular networking (FBMN) to analyze their secondary metabolite variations. The comprehensive results revealed that the metabolite expression in A. terreus C21-1 differed significantly between liquid and solid media. The metabolites produced in liquid medium were more diverse but less numerous compared to those in solid medium. Meanwhile, the mycelial morphology underwent significant changes with increasing salinity under PDB cultivation conditions, especially in PDB with 10% salinity. Untargeted metabolomics revealed significant differences between PDB with 10% salinity and other media, as well as between liquid and solid media. FBMN analysis indicated that alkaloids, which might be produced under high salt stress, contributed largely to the differences. The biological activities results showed that six groups of crude extracts exhibited acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitory activities, along with 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical scavenging and antibacterial activities. The results of this study showed that the increase in salinity favored the production of unique alkaloid compounds by A. terreus C21-1.
