Abstract
In this study, a series of acrylamide derivatives containing trifluoromethylpyridine or piperazine fragments were rationally designed and synthesized. Subsequently, the in vitro antifungal activities of all of the synthesized compounds were evaluated. The findings revealed that compounds 6b, 6c, and 7e exhibited >80% antifungal activity against Phomopsis sp. (Ps) at the concentration of 50 μg/mL. Furthermore, the EC50 values for compounds 6b, 6c, and 7e against Ps were determined to be 4.49, 6.47, and 8.68 μg/mL, respectively, which were better than the positive control with azoxystrobin (24.83 μg/mL). At the concentration of 200 μg/mL, the protective activity of compound 6b against Ps reached 65%, which was comparable to that of azoxystrobin (60.9%). Comprehensive mechanistic studies, including morphological studies with fluorescence microscopy (FM), cytoplasmic leakage, and enzyme activity assays, indicated that compound 6b disrupts cell membrane integrity and induces the accumulation of defense enzyme activity, thereby inhibiting mycelial growth. Therefore, compound 6b serves as a valuable candidate for the development of novel fungicides for plant protection.

Design, Synthesis and Antifungal Activity of Nootkatone Derivatives Containing Acylhydrazone and Oxime Ester. Chem Biodivers 2024; 21:e202400355. [PMID: 38453645 DOI: 10.1002/cbdv.202400355] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/08/2024] [Revised: 03/03/2024] [Accepted: 03/07/2024] [Indexed: 03/09/2024]
Abstract
In an attempt to search for new natural products-based antifungal agents, fifty-three nootkatone derivatives were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for their antifungal activity against Phytophthora parasitica var nicotianae, Fusarium oxysporum, Fusarium graminearum and Phomopsis sp. by the mycelium growth rate method. Nootkatone derivatives N17 exhibited good inhibitory activity against Phomopsis. sp. with EC50 values of 2.02 μM. The control effect of N17 against Phomopsis. sp. on kiwifruit showed that N17 exhibited a good curative effect in reducing kiwifruit rot at the concentration of 202 μM(100×EC50 ), with the curative effect of 41.11 %, which was better than commercial control of pyrimethanil at the concentration of 13437 μM(100×EC50 ) with the curative effect of 38.65 %. Phomopsis. sp. mycelium treated with N17 showed irregular surface collapse and shrinkage, and the cell membrane crinkled irregularly, vacuoles expanded significantly, mitochondria contracted, and organelles partially swollen by the SEM and TEM detected. Preliminary pharmacological experiments show that N17 exerted antifungal effects by altering release of cellular contents, and altering cell membrane permeability and integrity. The cytotoxicity test demonstrated that N17 showed almost no toxicity to K562 cells. The presented results implied that N17 may be as a potential antifungal agents for developing more efficient fungicides to control Phomopsis sp.

Abstract
Six previously undescribed cytosporone derivatives (phomotones A-E (1-5) and phomotone F (13)), two new spiro-alkanol phombistenes A-B (14-15), and seven known analogs (6-12) were isolated from the mangrove endophytic fungus Phomopsis sp. QYM-13. The structures of these compounds were elucidated using spectroscopic data analysis, electronic circular dichroism (ECD), and 13C NMR calculations. Compound 14 features an unprecedented 1,6-dioxaspiro[4.5]decane ring system. All isolates were evaluated for their inhibitory effect on nitric oxide (NO) in LPS-induced RAW264.7 cells. The results showed that compounds 1, 6, 8, and 11 exhibited potent bioactivities by comparing with positive control. Then, compound 1 displayed the anti-inflammatory effect by inhibiting the MAPK/NF-κB signaling pathways.

Synthesis and Biological Activity of Myricetin Derivatives Containing Pyrazole Piperazine Amide. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:10442. [PMID: 37445627 DOI: 10.3390/ijms241310442] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/30/2023] [Revised: 06/13/2023] [Accepted: 06/15/2023] [Indexed: 07/15/2023] Open
Abstract
In this paper, a series of derivatives were synthesized by introducing the pharmacophore pyrazole ring and piperazine ring into the structure of the natural product myricetin through an amide bond. The structures were determined using carbon spectrum and hydrogen spectrum high-resolution mass spectrometry. Biological activities of those compounds against bacteria, including Xac (Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. Citri), Psa (Pseudomonas syringae pv. Actinidiae) and Xoo (Xanthomonas oryzae pv. Oryzae) were tested. Notably, D6 exhibited significant bioactivity against Xoo with an EC50 value of 18.8 μg/mL, which was higher than the control drugs thiadiazole-copper (EC50 = 52.9 μg/mL) and bismerthiazol (EC50 = 69.1 μg/mL). Furthermore, the target compounds were assessed for their antifungal activity against ten plant pathogenic fungi. Among them, D1 displayed excellent inhibitory activity against Phomopsis sp. with an EC50 value of 16.9 μg/mL, outperforming the control agents azoxystrobin (EC50 = 50.7 μg/mL) and fluopyram (EC50 = 71.8 μg/mL). In vitro tests demonstrated that D1 possessed curative (60.6%) and protective (74.9%) effects on postharvest kiwifruit. To investigate the active mechanism of D1, its impact on SDH activity was evaluated based on its structural features and further confirmed through molecular docking. Subsequently, the malondialdehyde content of D1-treated fungi was measured, revealing that D1 could increase malondialdehyde levels, thereby causing damage to the cell membrane. Additionally, the EC50 value of D16 on P. capsici was 11.3 μg/mL, which was superior to the control drug azoxystrobin (EC50 = 35.1 μg/mL), and the scanning electron microscopy results indicated that the surface of drug-treated mycelium was ruffled, and growth was significantly affected.

Abstract
Fungi are important resources of novel bioactive compounds which have a high potential to be drug leads or candidates for further pharmacological applications. Phomopsis, a genus widely distributed in the environment, can produce various types of compounds including polyketides, alkaloids, terpenoids, cytochalasins, steroids and flavonoids. The metabolites of Phomopsis sp. showed diverse bioactivities such as antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, antimalarial, and so on, many of which may influence the physiological behaviour of the host plants. In this review, we focus on the chemical structures and biological activities of 183 specialized metabolites isolated from Phomopsis sp. in the decade (2013-2022). Moreover, the biosynthetic pathways of some typical components are summarized.

Abstract
Mangrove-associated fungi are important sources for the discovery of new bioactive natural products. Three new isocoumarins (1-3) and one new pyrone derivative (4) were isolated from the ethyl acetate extract of the fermentation broth of the mangrove endophytic fungus Phomopsis sp. DHS-11. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy (one-dimensional and two-dimensional) and mass spectrometry were used to determine the structures of these new compounds. The absolute configurations for the new isocoumarins 1-3 were determined by comparing their experimental and calculated electronic circular dichroism (ECD) spectra, while the configuration for the new pyrone-derivative 4 was tentatively solved by comparison of its 13C NMR data with reported data. In the biological activity test, compounds 1 and 3 showed cytotoxic activity against HeLa cells with IC50 values of 11.49 ± 1.64 µM and 8.70 ± 0.94 µM, respectively. The initial structure and activity relationship (SAR) analysis revealed that the length of the side chain at C-3 for isocoumarin-type compounds 1-3 could affect the cytotoxicity against HeLa cells. Compound 4 exhibited cytotoxic activities against human hepatoma cells HepG2 with an IC50 value of 34.10 ± 2.92 µM. All compounds have no immunosuppressive activity.

Abstract
Twenty 1,4-pentadiene-3-one derivatives containing quinazolinone (W1-W20) were designed and synthesized. The bioactivity test results showed that some compounds had antifungal activities in vitro. W12 showed excellent bioactivity against Sclerotinia sclerotiorum (S. sclerotiorum) and Phomopsis sp., with EC50 values of 0.70 and 3.84 μg/mL, which are higher than those of the control drug azoxystrobin at 8.15 and 17.25 μg/mL. In vivo activity tests were carried out on oilseed rape and kiwifruit. The protective effect of W12 on oilseed rape infected with S. sclerotiorum (91.7 and 87.3%) was better than that of azoxystrobin (90.2 and 79.8%) at 100 and 50 μg/mL, respectively, and the protective effect on kiwifruit infected with Phomopsis sp. (96.2%) was better than that of azoxystrobin (94.6%) at 200 μg/mL. Scanning electron microscopy results showed the hyphae of S. sclerotiorum treated with compound W12 abnormally collapsed and shriveled, inhibiting the growth of mycelium and, thus, laying the inhibiting effect on S. sclerotiorum. The results of the mechanism research showed that the action of W12 changed the mycelial morphology of S. sclerotiorum, affected the permeability of cells, increased the leakage of cytoplasm and allowed the cell membrane to break down. This study shows that 1,4-pentadiene-3-one derivatives containing quinazolinone have good effects on plant fungi and the potential for becoming new fungicides.

Abstract
Essential oils (EOs) have excellent antibacterial activity and are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) for use in food preservatives. However, the application of EOs is limited because of their strong volatility and easily oxidized. Encapsulation of EOs into nanoemulsions could effectively prevent oxidative deterioration. In this study, lemon essential oil-based nanoemulsion (LEO/NE) was prepared by high-pressure homogenization. FT-IR and encapsulation efficiency analysis indicated that LEO was effectively encapsulated in the nanoemulsion. The results of zeta potential changes after 35 d storage indicated that LEO/NE exhibits good stability at room temperature. The effect of LEO/NE on the main soft rot pathogens of kiwifruit Phomopsis sp. was investigated, and the results showed that LEO/NE significantly inhibited spore germination and mycelia growth of Phomopsis sp. by promoting ROS accumulation, intracellular antioxidant enzyme activities, and cell apoptosis. The preservation experiment was carried out by inoculating Phomopsis sp. spores into fresh kiwifruit, and the LEO/NE effectively inhibited soft rot development in kiwifruit in a LEO dose dependent manner. LEO/NE with 1% LEO loading amount has a good effect on preventing postharvest decay of kiwifruit caused by Phomopsis sp.

Abstract
Soft rot disease caused by Botryosphaeria dothidea and Phomopsis sp. is the most serious fungal disease of the kiwifruit production area in southwest China. In this work, the role of the co-application of tetramycin and matrine in the resistance of kiwifruit fruits against soft rot disease and its effects on development, quality and amino acids of kiwifruit fruits were investigated. The results indicate that matrine exhibited an outstanding toxicity against B. dothidea RF-1 and Phomopsis sp. RF-2 with EC50 values of 0.442 and 0.332 mg kg−1. The foliar co-application of 0.3% tetramycin aqueous solutions (AS) 5000-fold liquid + 0.5% matrine AS 1000-fold liquid could effectively control soft rot disease with a control efficacy of 82.68%, which was significantly (p < 0.05) higher than 75.19% of 0.3% tetramycin AS 5000-fold liquid and significantly (p < 0.01) higher than 68.50% of 0.5% matrine AS 500-fold liquid. Moreover, the co-application of tetramycin and matrine was more effective than tetramycin or matrine alone in improving disease resistance, quality and amino acids of kiwifruit fruits. This study highlights that the co-application of tetramycin and matrine can be used as a practicable, cost-effective and environmentally friendly candidate or alternative approach for controlling soft rot disease of kiwifruit.

Abstract
Cholinesterase (ChE) inhibitors are currently the main drugs used to treat the cognitive symptoms of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Dual cholinesterase inhibitors, that is, compounds capable of inhibiting both acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE), are considered a new potential approach for the long-term treatment of patients with AD. We evaluated the ethyl acetate extract of Phomopsis sp., grown in liquid medium malt extract and potato dextrose (PDB), an endophyte isolated from the Brazilian medicinal plant Hancornia speciosa. The anticholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE) activities were evaluated. The extracts exhibited dual action against AChE and BuChE. The compounds isolated from these extracts, nectriapyrone (1) and tryptophol (2), showed inhibitory action on BuChE (IC50 = 29.05 and 34.15 μM respectively), being selective towards BuChE. The discovery of selective BuChE inhibitors is extremely important for the development of drugs that can be used in the treatment of patients diagnosed with AD.

Abstract
Four new chromones, phomochromenones D–G (1–4), along with four known analogues, diaporchromone A (5), diaporchromanone C (6), diaporchromanone D (7), and phomochromenone C (8), were isolated from the culture of Phomopsis asparagi DHS-48 from Chinese mangrove Rhizophora mangle. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of comprehensive spectroscopic analysis. The absolute configurations of 1 and 4 were assigned on the basis of experimental and calculated electronic circular dichroism (ECD) data, and those of enantiomers 2 and 3 were determined by a modified Mosher’s method and basic hydrolysis. To the best of our knowledge, phomochromenones D–F (1–4) possessing a 3-substituted-chroman-4-one skeleton are rarely found in natural sources. Diaporchromone A (5) showed moderate to weak immunosuppressive activity against T and/or B lymphocyte cells with IC50 of 34 μM and 117 μM.

Abstract
Two new quinone derivatives, epoxyquinophomopsins A (1) and B (2), were purified from the EtOAc extract of endophytic fungus Phomopsis sp isolated from Morus cathayana. The structures of both compounds were determined based on 1D and 2D NMR and mass spectral data, as well as by x-ray diffraction analysis for 1. Compounds 1 and 2 were screened against eight receptor- (RTKs) and eight non-receptor tyrosine kinases (nRTKs). Both compounds showed strong inhibitory properties against Bruton's Tyrosine Kinase (nRTK) with their kinase activity were 19% and 20%, respectively. Only compound 1 that showed strong inhibitory properties against RTKs EGFR and HER-4 with its kinase activity were 16 and 15%, respectively. Thus, both compounds have potential as tyrosine kinase inhibitors.

Abstract
Following a biological screening using a dengue replicon virus-cell-based assay, Diospyros carbonaria AcOEt extract was investigated, affording six known lupane-type triterpenoids endowed with anti-DENV-2 NS5 polymerase activity. The study of the associated microbial community of this species permitted us to identify 38 endophytes belonging to five different orders. Nine out of these 38 strains showed significant activity on the dengue replicon assay. The chemical investigation of the most active one, Phomopsis sp. SNB-LAP1-7-32, led to the isolation of betulinic acid, an anti-viral secondary metabolite isolated previously from the host plant. This result is the first example of a lupane-type triterpenoid isolated from both an endophyte and its host plant. Its presence in the Phomopsis strain may result from gene transfer and/or specific niche selection.

[PMID: 27879655 PMCID: PMC5128758 DOI: 10.3390/md14110215] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/09/2016] [Revised: 10/20/2016] [Accepted: 11/08/2016] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Four new chromone derivatives, phomopsichins A–D (1–4), along with a known compound, phomoxanthone A (5), were isolated from the fermentation products of mangrove endophytic fungus Phomopsis sp. 33#. Their structures were elucidated based on comprehensive spectroscopic analysis coupled with single-crystal X-ray diffraction or theoretical calculations of electronic circular dichroism (ECD). They feature a tricyclic framework, in which a dihydropyran ring is fused with the chromone ring. Compounds 1–5 showed weak inhibitory activities on acetylcholinesterase as well as α-glucosidase, weak radical scavenging effects on 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) as well as OH, and weak antimicrobial activities. Compounds 1–4 showed no cytotoxic activity against MDA-MB-435 breast cancer cells. Their other bioactivities are worthy of further study, considering their unique molecular structures.

Comparison of pinoresinol diglucoside production by Phomopsis sp. XP-8 in different media and the characterisation and product profiles of the cultivation in mung bean. JOURNAL OF THE SCIENCE OF FOOD AND AGRICULTURE 2016; 96:4015-4025. [PMID: 26694522 DOI: 10.1002/jsfa.7593] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/15/2015] [Revised: 12/06/2015] [Accepted: 12/15/2015] [Indexed: 06/05/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Phomopsis sp. XP-8 is an endophytic fungus with the ability to produce pinoresinol diglucoside (PDG) in vitro and thus has potential application in biosynthesis of PDG independent of plants. In order to enhance the production of PDG, 18 different natural materials were tested in solid-state cultivation of Phomopsis sp. XP-8. RESULTS Most of the tested natural materials promoted the production of PDG. A supplement derived from mung beans produced the highest PDG yield and better fungal growth than the other materials. Also, pinoresinol monoglucoside, pinoresinol and other substrates (phenylalanine, p-coumaric acid, cinnamic acid, caffeic acid, and ferulic acid) were obtained after fermentation on mung beans. Furthermore, PDG production was much higher when mung beans were incorporated into solid state agar versus a liquid medium. The highest pinoresinol diglucoside production (72.1 mg kg(-1) in fresh culture) was obtained in 9 days using a solid state culture of Phomopsis sp. XP-8 on a mung bean grain medium containing 100 g kg(-1) glucose. Mung bean water-soluble polysaccharide was identified as a major promoter of PDG production by Phomopsis sp. XP-8. CONCLUSION Mung bean, especially its water-soluble polysaccharide fraction, was an efficient natural material to promote PDG production by Phomopsis sp. XP-8. © 2015 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
AIM To study the chemical constituents of the solid culture of the endophyte Phomopsis sp. IFB-E060 in Vatica mangachapoi. METHOD Isolation and purification were performed through silica gel column chromatography, gel filtration over Sephadex LH-20, ODS column chromatography, and HPLC. Structures of the isolated compounds were elucidated by a combination of spectroscopic analyses (UV, CD, IR, MS, 1D, and 2D NMR). The cytotoxicity of the isolates was evaluated in vitro by the MTT method against the human hepatocarcinoma cell line SMMC-7721. RESULTS Five compounds were isolated from the solid culture of the endophyte Phomopsis sp. IFB-E060 and their structures were identified as 18-methoxy cytochalasin J (1), cytochalasin H (2), (22E, 24S)-cerevisterol (3), ergosterol (4), and nicotinic acid (5). Compound 1 had an inhibition rate of 24.4% at 10 μg·mL(-1) and 2 had an IC50 value of 15.0 μg·mL(-1), while a positive control 5-fluorouracil had an inhibition rate of 28.7% at 10 μg·mL(-1). CONCLUSION 18-Methoxy cytochalasin J (1), produced by endophytic Phomopsis sp. IFB-E060, is a new cytochalasin with weak cytotoxicity to the human hepatocarcinoma cell line SMMC-7721.
