Abstract
Introduction: In this study, two new papulacandin analogs (1-2), together with 12 known compounds (3-14), were identified from the co-culture of two endophytic fungi, Pestalotiopsis sp. J025 and Nigrospora sp. Wn-2-2, which were isolated from Wikstroemia nutans Champ. ex Benth.
Objectives: The aim of this study is to investigate the antifungal activity of papulacandins and other secondary metabolites from the co-culture of two endophytic fungi.
Material and methods: Their chemical structures, including relative configurations, were elucidated using extensive spectroscopic analyses, including HRESIMS, 1D and 2D NMR, ECD calculations, and quantum mechanical-NMR calculations, as well as comparison with reported analogs.
Results: Compound 3 demonstrated promising in vitro antifungal activity against fluconazole-resistant Candida albicans with a minimum inhibitory concentration in 50% isolates (MIC50) of 0.57 ± 0.01 μM.
Conclusion: These findings demonstrate that the papulacandin family is a promising resource for the development of antifungal agents against invasive Candida infections.
期刊介绍:
Phytochemical Analysis is devoted to the publication of original articles concerning the development, improvement, validation and/or extension of application of analytical methodology in the plant sciences. The spectrum of coverage is broad, encompassing methods and techniques relevant to the detection (including bio-screening), extraction, separation, purification, identification and quantification of compounds in plant biochemistry, plant cellular and molecular biology, plant biotechnology, the food sciences, agriculture and horticulture. The Journal publishes papers describing significant novelty in the analysis of whole plants (including algae), plant cells, tissues and organs, plant-derived extracts and plant products (including those which have been partially or completely refined for use in the food, agrochemical, pharmaceutical and related industries). All forms of physical, chemical, biochemical, spectroscopic, radiometric, electrometric, chromatographic, metabolomic and chemometric investigations of plant products (monomeric species as well as polymeric molecules such as nucleic acids, proteins, lipids and carbohydrates) are included within the remit of the Journal. Papers dealing with novel methods relating to areas such as data handling/ data mining in plant sciences will also be welcomed.
