Abstract
Neuroblastoma is a pediatric cancer of neural crest cells. It develops most frequently in nerve cells around the adrenal gland, although other locations are possible. Neuroblastomas rely on glycolysis as a source of energy and metabolites, and the enzymes that catalyze glycolysis are potential therapeutic targets for neuroblastoma. Furthermore, glycolysis provides a protective function against DNA damage, and there is evidence that glycolysis inhibitors may improve outcomes from other cancer treatments. This mini-review will focus on glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH), one of the central enzymes in glycolysis. GAPDH has a key role in metabolism, catalyzing the sixth step in glycolysis and generating NADH. GAPDH also has a surprisingly diverse number of localizations, including the nucleus, where it performs multiple functions, and the plasma membrane. One membrane-associated function of GAPDH is stimulating glucose uptake, consistent with a role for GAPDH in energy and metabolite production. The plasma membrane localization of GAPDH and its role in glucose uptake have been verified in neuroblastoma. Membrane-associated GAPDH also participates in iron uptake, although this has not been tested in neuroblastoma. Finally, GAPDH activates autophagy through a nuclear complex with Sirtuin. This review will discuss these activities and their potential role in cancer metabolism, treatment and drug resistance.

Abstract
Chemical investigation of the Antarctic lichen-derived fungal strain Acremonium sp. SF-7394 yielded a new amphilectane-type diterpene, acrepseudoterin (1), and a new acorane-type sesquiterpene glycoside, isocordycepoloside A (2). In addition, three known fungal metabolites, (-)-ternatin (3), [D-Leu]-ternatin (4), and pseurotin A (5), were isolated from the EtOAc extract of the fungal strain. Their structures were mainly elucidated by analyzing their NMR and MS data. The absolute configuration of 1 was proposed by electronic circular dichroism calculations, and the absolute configuration of the sugar unit in 2 was determined by a chemical method. The inhibitory effects of the isolated compounds on protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) were evaluated by enzymatic assays; results indicated that acrepseudoterin (1) and [D-Leu]-ternatin (4) dose-dependently inhibited the enzyme activity with IC50 values of 22.8 ± 1.1 μM and 14.8 ± 0.3 μM, respectively. Moreover, compound 1 was identified as a competitive inhibitor of PTP1B.

Abstract
Tau is a major component of protein plaques in tauopathies, especially Alzheimer's disease (AD). The purpose of the present study is to explore the inhibitory effects of heptelidic acid as a bioactive compound from fungus T. koningii on tau fibrillization and associated neurotoxicity. The influences of various concentrations of heptelidic acid on tau fibrillization and underlying neurotoxicity were explored by assessment of the biophysical (ThT/Nile red fluorescence, CR absorbance, CD, and TEM) and cellular (MTT, LDH, and caspase-3) assays. It was shown that heptelidic acid inhibited tau fibrillization in a concentration-dependent manner. On the other hand, cellular assays indicated that the viability, LDH release, and caspase-3 activity were regulated when neurons were exposed to tau samples co-incubated with heptelidic acid. In conclusion, it may be indicated that heptelidic acid inhibited tau fibrillization which was accompanied by formation of amorphous aggregated species of tau with much less neurotoxicity than tau amyloid alone. Thus, heptelidic acid can be considered as a potential candidate in preventive care studies to inhibit the formation of tau plaques as neurotoxic species.

Abstract
Targeting glycolysis is an attractive approach for the treatment of a wide range of pathologies, such as various tumors and parasitic infections. Due to its pivotal role in the glycolysis, Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) represents a rate-limiting enzyme in those cells that mostly, or exclusively rely on this pathway for energy production. In this context, GAPDH inhibition can be a valuable approach for the development of anticancer and antiparasitic drugs. In addition to its glycolytic role, GAPDH possesses several moonlight functions, whose deregulation is involved in some pathological conditions. Covalent modification on different amino acids of GAPDH, in particular on cysteine residues, can lead to a modulation of the enzyme activity. The selectivity towards specific cysteine residues is essential to achieve a specific phenotypic effect. In this work we report an extensive overview of the latest advances on the numerous compounds able to inhibit GAPDH through the covalent binding to cysteine residues, ranging from endogenous metabolites and xenobiotics, which may serve as pharmacological tools to actual drug-like compounds with promising therapeutic perspectives. Furthermore, we focused on the potentialities of the different warheads, shedding light on the possibility to exploit a combination of a finely tuned electrophilic group with a well-designed recognition moiety. These findings can provide useful information for the rational design of novel covalent inhibitors of GAPDH, with the final goal to expand the current treatment options.

Abstract
A new nitrogen-containing compound, trichothioneic acid, was discovered from the metabolites of fungal strain FKI-7573 using a mass spectrometry screening method guided by odd number of molecular weights, which indicates compounds that contain an odd number of nitrogen atoms. Strain FKI-7573 was isolated from soil collected in Obihiro, Hokkaido, Japan, and identified as Trichoderma virens by a sequence analysis of the internal transcribed spacer region, including 5.8S ribosomal RNA. The structure of trichothioneic acid was determined by mass spectrometry, nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, electronic circular dichroism spectra, and chemical degradation analyses. These analyses revealed that trichothioneic acid consists of heptelidic acid and l-ergothioneine, and contains three nitrogen atoms. Trichothioneic acid exhibited hydroxyl radical-scavenging and singlet oxygen-quenching activities.

Abstract
A new monosesquiterpene diacetylgliocladic acid (1), a new dimeric sesquiterpene divirensol H (9), and two exceptionally novel trimeric sesquiterpene trivirensols A and B (11 and 12), together with another eight known congeners, were purified from an endophytic fungus Trichoderma virens FY06, derived from Litchi chinensis Sonn. whose fruit is a delicious and popular food. All of them were identified by comprehensive spectroscopic analysis, combined with biosynthetic considerations. Trivirensols A and B are unprecedented trimers of which three subunits are connected by two ester bonds of the sesquiterpene class. Relative to the positive control triadimefon, all the tested metabolites showed strong inhibitory activities against at least one phytopathogenic fungus among Penicillium italicum, Fusarium oxysporum, Fusarium graminearum, Colletotrichum musae, and Colletotrictum gloeosporioides. Notably, as metabolites of the endophytic fungus from L. chinensis, they all presented strong antifungal activities against C. gloeosporioides which causes anthracnose in L. chinensis.

Abstract
A screening program aimed at discovering novel anticancer agents based on natural products led to the selection of koningic acid (KA), known as a potent inhibitor of glycolysis. A method was set up to produce this fungal sesquiterpene lactone in large quantities by fermentation, thus allowing (i) an extensive analysis of its anticancer potential in vitro and in vivo and (ii) the semi-synthesis of analogues to delineate structure-activity relationships. KA was characterized as a potent, but non-selective cytotoxic agent, active under both normoxic and hypoxic conditions and inactive in the A549 lung cancer xenograft model. According to our SAR, the acidic group could be replaced to keep bioactivity but an intact epoxide is essential.

Abstract
The ongoing search for effective antiplasmodial agents remains essential in the fight against malaria worldwide. Emerging parasitic drug resistance places an urgent need to explore chemotherapies with novel structures and mechanisms of action. Natural products have historically provided effective antimalarial drug scaffolds. In an effort to search nature's chemical potential for antiplasmodial agents, unconventionally sourced organisms coupled with innovative cultivation techniques were utilized. Approximately 60,000 niche microbes from various habitats (slow-growing terrestrial fungi, Antarctic microbes, and mangrove endophytes) were cultivated on a small-scale, extracted, and used in high-throughput screening to determine antimalarial activity. About 1% of crude extracts were considered active and 6% partially active (≥ 67% inhibition at 5 and 50 μg/mL, respectively). Active extracts (685) were cultivated on a large-scale, fractionated, and screened for both antimalarial activity and cytotoxicity. High interest fractions (397) with an IC50 < 1.11 μg/mL were identified and subjected to chromatographic separation for compound characterization and dereplication. Identifying active compounds with nanomolar antimalarial activity coupled with a selectivity index tenfold higher was accomplished with two of the 52 compounds isolated. This microscale, high-throughput screening project for antiplasmodial agents is discussed in the context of current natural product drug discovery efforts.

Abstract
High-content screening is transforming drug discovery by enabling simultaneous measurement of multiple features of cellular phenotype that are relevant to therapeutic and toxic activities of compounds. High-content screening studies typically generate immense datasets of image-based phenotypic information, and how best to mine relevant phenotypic data is an unsolved challenge. Here, we introduce factor analysis as a data-driven tool for defining cell phenotypes and profiling compound activities. This method allows a large data reduction while retaining relevant information, and the data-derived factors used to quantify phenotype have discernable biological meaning. We used factor analysis of cells stained with fluorescent markers of cell cycle state to profile a compound library and cluster the hits into seven phenotypic categories. We then compared phenotypic profiles, chemical similarity and predicted protein binding activities of active compounds. By integrating these different descriptors of measured and potential biological activity, we can effectively draw mechanism-of-action inferences.

Abstract
Trichodermamides A (1) and B (2), two modified dipeptides, have been isolated from cultures of the marine-derived fungus Trichoderma virens. The trichodermamides possess a rare cyclic O-alkyl-oxime functionality incorporated into a six-membered ring. The structure of trichodermamide B was established by X-ray diffraction analysis, while the structure assignment of trichodermamide A, and determination of the absolute stereochemistry, was accomplished by spectral and chemical methods. Trichodermamide B displayed significant in vitro cytotoxicity against HCT-116 human colon carcinoma with an IC(50) of 0.32 microg/mL.
