Abstract
A new benzophenone derivative, 8'-hydroxymonomethylsulochrin (1), together with eighteen known compounds (2-19) were produced by the endophytic fungus Aspergillus fumigatus WJ-131, isolated from the stem of Gardenia jasminoides. The structure of 1 was determined by extensive spectroscopic analysis and X-ray crystallography. Under the condition of concentration of 20.0 μM, the splenic lymphocytes proliferation rates of compounds 1 and 7 induced by LPS were 39.4% and 38.1% (LPS, the splenic lymphocytes cell proliferation rates of 21.3%), and the splenic lymphocytes proliferation rate of compounds 7 induced by ConA is 44.6% (ConA, the splenic lymphocytes proliferation rates of 28.9%). Therefore, compounds 1 and 7 promoted the proliferation of ConA/LPS-stimulated splenic lymphocytes at 20.0 μM in vitro. In addition, compound 1 showed weak antibacterial activity against Fusarium oxysporum.

Abstract
Two new glucosidated indole-containing quinazoline alkaloids designated fumigatosides G (1) and H (2) were isolated from mangrove-derived fungus Aspergillus fumigatus SAl12, together with the known analogues fumigatoside B (3) and fumiquinazoline J (4). The planar structures of the new compounds were elucidated by HR-MS and NMR spectroscopic data analyses. The absolute configurations were determined by comparison of electronic circular dichroic (ECD) spectra with that of the known compound fumigatoside B and with the calculated ECD spectrum. All these indole-quinazoline compounds were tested for anti-bacterial and cytotoxic activities.

Secondary Metabolite Variation and Bioactivities of Two Marine Aspergillus Strains in Static Co-Culture Investigated by Molecular Network Analysis and Multiple Database Mining Based on LC-PDA-MS/MS. Antibiotics (Basel) 2022; 11:antibiotics11040513. [PMID: 35453264 PMCID: PMC9031932 DOI: 10.3390/antibiotics11040513] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/19/2022] [Revised: 03/30/2022] [Accepted: 04/06/2022] [Indexed: 12/11/2022] Open
Abstract
Co-culture is known as an efficient way to explore the metabolic potential of fungal strains for new antibiotics and other therapeutic agents that could counter emerging health issues. To study the effect of co-culture on the secondary metabolites and bioactivities of two marine strains, Aspergillus terreus C23-3 and Aspergillus. unguis DLEP2008001, they were co-cultured in live or inactivated forms successively or simultaneously. The mycelial morphology and high-performance thin layer chromatography (HPTLC) including bioautography of the fermentation extracts were recorded. Furthermore, the agar cup-plate method was used to compare the antimicrobial activity of the extracts. Based on the above, liquid chromatography-photodiode array-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-PDA-MS/MS) together with Global Natural Products Social molecular networking (GNPS) and multiple natural products database mining were used to further analyze their secondary metabolite variations. The comprehensive results showed the following trends: (1) The strain first inoculated will strongly inhibit the growth and metabolism of the latter inoculated one; (2) Autoclaved A. unguis exerted a strong inducing effect on later inoculated A. terreus, while the autoclaved A. terreus showed high stability of its metabolites and still potently suppressed the growth and metabolism of A. unguis; (3) When the two strains are inoculated simultaneously, they both grow and produce metabolites; however, the A. terreus seemed to be more strongly induced by live A. unguis and this inducing effect surpassed that of the autoclaved A. unguis. Under some of the conditions, the extracts showed higher antimicrobial activity than the axenic cultures. Totally, A. unguis was negative in response but potent in stimulating its rival while A. terreus had the opposite effect. Fifteen MS detectable and/or UV active peaks showed different yields in co-cultures vs. the corresponding axenic culture. GNPS analysis assisted by multiple natural products databases mining (PubChem, Dictionary of Natural Products, NPASS, etc.) gave reasonable annotations for some of these peaks, including antimicrobial compounds such as unguisin A, lovastatin, and nidulin. However, some of the peaks were correlated with antagonistic properties and remain as possible novel compounds without mass or UV matching hits from any database. It is intriguing that the two strains both synthesize chemical ‘weapons’ for antagonism, and that these are upregulated when needed in competitive co-culture environment. At the same time, compounds not useful in this antagonistic setting are downregulated in their expression. Some of the natural products produced during antagonism are unknown chlorinated metabolites and deserve further study for their antimicrobial properties. In summary, this study disclosed the different responses of two Aspergillus strains in co-culture, revealed their metabolic variation, and displayed new opportunities for antibiotic discovery.

Abstract
Aspergillus fumigatus is an important opportunistic human pathogen known for its production of a large array of extrolites. Up to 63 species have been described in Aspergillus section Fumigati, some of which have also been reliably reported to be pathogenic, including A. felis, A. fischeri, A. fumigatiaffinis, A. fumisynnematus, A. hiratsukae, A. laciniosus, A. lentulus, A. novofumigatus, A. parafelis, A. pseudofelis, A. pseudoviridinutans, A. spinosus, A. thermomutatus, and A. udagawae. These species share the production of hydrophobins, melanins, and siderophores and ability to grow well at 37°C, but they only share some small molecule extrolites, that could be important factors in pathogenicity. According to the literature gliotoxin and other exometabolites can be contributing factors to pathogenicity, but these exometabolites are apparently not produced by all pathogenic species. It is our hypothesis that species unable to produce some of these metabolites can produce proxy-exometabolites that may serve the same function. We tabulate all exometabolites reported from species in Aspergillus section Fumigati and by comparing the profile of those extrolites, suggest that those producing many different kinds of exometabolites are potential opportunistic pathogens. The exometabolite data also suggest that the profile of exometabolites are highly specific and can be used for identification of these closely related species.

Abstract
Marine indole alkaloids comprise a large and steadily growing group of secondary metabolites. Their diverse biological activities make many compounds of this class attractive starting points for pharmaceutical development. Several marine-derived indoles were found to possess cytotoxic, antineoplastic, antibacterial and antimicrobial activities, in addition to the action on human enzymes and receptors. The newly isolated indole alkaloids of marine origin since the last comprehensive review in 2003 are reported, and biological aspects will be discussed.
