Depsidones and a dihydroxanthenone from the endophytic fungi Simplicillium lanosoniveum (J.F.H. Beyma) Zare & W. Gams PSU-H168 and PSU-H261. Fitoterapia. 2019 Aug 05;:104286 Authors: Rukachaisirikul V, Chinpha S, Saetang P, Phongpaichit S, Jungsuttiwong S, Hadsadee S, Sakayaroj J, Preedanon S, Temkitthawon P, Ingkaninan K Abstract Three new compounds including two depsidones (simplicildones J and K) and one dihydroxanthenone (globosuxanthone E) together with nine known compounds were obtained from the crude extracts of two endophytic fungi Simplicillium lanosoniveum (J.F.H. Beyma) Zare & W. Gams PSU-H168 and PSU-H261 which were isolated from the leaves of Hevea brasiliensis. The structures were elucidated by spectroscopic evidence. The absolute configuration of globosuxanthone E was established by means of experimental and calculated TDDFT ECD data. Simplicildone K exhibited antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and methicillin-resistant S. aureus with equal MIC values of 128 μg/mL. Simplicildone K and globosuxanthone E displayed antifungal activity against Cryptococcus neoformans ATCC90113 with the same MIC values of 32 μg/mL. In addition, known botryohordine C and simplicildone A showed phosphodiesterase 5 inhibitory activity with the IC50 values of 5.69 and 9.96 μM, respectively, and were noncytotoxic toward noncancerous Vero cells.
