[PMID: 37401998 DOI: 10.1007/s00253-023-12635-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/28/2023] [Revised: 06/08/2023] [Accepted: 06/12/2023] [Indexed: 07/05/2023]
Abstract
The genus Phoma has been explored for a wide range of secondary metabolites signifying a huge range of bioactivities. Phoma sensu lato is a major group that secretes several secondary metabolites. The genus Phoma mainly includes Phoma macrostoma, P. multirostrata, P. exigua, P. herbarum, P. betae, P. bellidis, P. medicaginis, P. tropica, and many more species from the genus that are continuously being identified for their potential secondary metabolites. The metabolite spectrum includes bioactive compounds like phomenon, phomin, phomodione, cytochalasins, cercosporamide, phomazines, and phomapyrone reported from various Phoma spp. These secondary metabolites show a broad range of activities including antimicrobial, antiviral, antinematode, and anticancer. The present review is aimed to emphasize the importance of Phoma sensu lato fungi, as a natural source of biologically active secondary metabolites, and their cytotoxic activities. So far, cytotoxic activities of Phoma spp. have not been reviewed; hence, this review will be novel and useful for the readers to develop Phoma-derived anticancer agents. KEY POINTS: • Different Phoma spp. contain a wide variety of bioactive metabolites. • These Phoma spp. also secrete cytotoxic and antitumor compounds. • The secondary metabolites can be used for the development of anticancer agents.

Abstract
Microorganisms still remain the main hotspots in the global drug discovery avenue. In particular, fungi are highly prolific producers of vast structurally diverse specialized secondary metabolites, which have displayed a myriad of biomedical potentials. Intriguingly, isocoumarins is one distinctive class of fungal natural products polyketides, which demonstrated numerous remarkable biological and pharmacological activities. This review article provides a comprehensive state-of-the-art over the period 2000-2022 about the discovery, isolation, classifications, and therapeutic potentials of isocoumarins exclusively reported from fungi. Indeed, a comprehensive list of 351 structurally diverse isocoumarins were documented and classified according to their fungal sources [16 order/28 family/55 genera] where they have been originally discovered along with their reported pharmacological activities wherever applicable. Also, recent insights around their proposed and experimentally proven biosynthetic pathways are also briefly discussed.

Abstract
Six new polyketides, alternaritins A-D [(±)-1-4] and isoxanalteric acid I (8), and 25 known Alternaria toxins were isolated from the culture of an endophytic fungi Alternaria sp. MG1. 3 is a rare fungal metabolite. 6 is a new natural product, and 5, 7, and 9 are known previously but their absolute configurations have not been determined. Three enantiomers [(±)-1, (±)-7, and (±)-15] were separated via chiral HPLC resolution. The structures of those polyketides (1-9) were elucidated by spectrometric analysis using MS and NMR. The absolute configurations were established using X-ray diffraction analysis and statistical comparative analysis of the experimental ECD and OR data, in conjunction with quantum mechanical calculations. All of the compounds were evaluated for their bioactivities. Known compound 27 exerted the most potent cytotoxic activities against HT-1080 and NCI-H1299 cell lines. The new compounds, 2 and 3, showed moderate inhibition on COX-2, while a pair of isomers, 8 and 9, exhibited medium activity on COX-2 and uropathogenic Escherichia coli.

Abstract
Isocoumarins and dihydroisocoumarins are lactonic phytochemicals plentiful in microbes and higher plants. These are an amazing small scaffolds consecrated with all types of pharmacological applications. Our previous review covered the period 2000-2016, documenting the then known natural products of this class; the current article is a critical account of discovery of known as well as undescribed structural types and pharmacological activities reported in the course of 2016-2020. The classification revealed in our previous review based on the biogenetic origin is further buttressed by discovery of new members of each class and some new structural types hitherto unknown have also been identified. Similarly, the biological activities and SAR conclusions identified were found to be valid as well, nonetheless with new accompaniments. The most recent available literature on the structural diversity and biological activity of these natural products has been included. The information documented in this article are collected from scientific journals, books, electronic search engines and scientific databases.

Abstract
A non-oxidant and metal-free strategy for synthesizing iso-coumarin by using a continuous electrochemical microreactor to initiate an oxidative cyclization reaction of o-(1-alkynyl) benzoate and radicals. This efficient and clean continuous electrosynthesis method not only avoids the complicated gas protection operation and production of by-products in the batch processes, but also help to overcome the difficulty that batch metal catalysis and electrocatalysis are difficult to scale up, and has the potential for pilot-scale experiment.

Abstract
Covering: up to April 2020Fungal benzene carbaldehydes with salicylaldehydes as predominant representatives carry usually hydroxyl groups, prenyl moieties and alkyl side chains. They are found in both basidiomycetes and ascomycetes as key intermediates or end products of various biosynthetic pathways and exhibit diverse biological and pharmacological activities. The skeletons of the benzene carbaldehydes are usually derived from polyketide pathways catalysed by iterative fungal polyketide synthases. The aldehyde groups are formed by direct PKS releasing, reduction of benzoic acids or oxidation of benzyl alcohols.

Abstract
Recently, the metabolites separated from endophytes have attracted significant attention, as many of them have a unique structure and appealing pharmacological and biological potentials. Isocoumarins represent one of the most interesting classes of metabolites, which are coumarins isomers with a reversed lactone moiety. They are produced by plants, microbes, marine organisms, bacteria, insects, liverworts, and fungi and possessed a wide array of bioactivities. This review gives an overview of isocoumarins derivatives from endophytic fungi and their source, isolation, structural characterization, biosynthesis, and bioactivities, concentrating on the period from 2000 to 2019. Overall, 307 metabolites and more than 120 references are conferred. This is the first review on these multi-facetted metabolites from endophytic fungi.

Abstract
Plant endophytes are microorganisms that live in healthy plant tissues in part or all of their life history without causing obvious symptoms of infection in the host plants. Endophytes, a new type of microbial resource that can produce a variety of biological constituents, have great values for research and broad prospects for development. This article reviewed the research and development progress of endophytic fungi with cytotoxic activity between 2014 and 2017, including endophytic fungi sources, microbial taxonomy, compound classification and cytotoxic activity. The results showed that the 109 strains of endophytic fungi belong to 3 phyla, 7 classes and 50 genera. The secondary metabolites mainly contained alkaloids, terpenes, steroids, polyketides, quinones, isocoumarins, esters etc. The results of this study provide references for the development of new antitumor drugs and endophytes resources.
