Cytoglobosins H and I, New Antiproliferative Cytochalasans from Deep-Sea-Derived Fungus Chaetomium globosum
نویسندگان
چکیده
Cytoglobosins H (1) and I (2), together with seven known cytochalasan alkaloids (3-9), were isolated from the deep-sea-derived fungus Chaetomium globosum. The structures of new compounds 1 and 2 were elucidated by extensive 1D and 2D NMR and mass spectroscopic data. All the compounds were evaluated for their antiproliferative activities against MDA-MB-231 human breast cancer cells, LNCaP human prostate cancer cells, and B16F10 mouse melanoma cells. Compound 6 showed significant antiproliferative activity against LNCaP and B16F10 cell lines with IC50 values of 0.62 and 2.78 μM, respectively. Further testing confirmed that compound 6 inhibited the growth of LNCaP cells by inducing apoptosis.

Chemical investigation on the methanol extract of Chaetomium globosum TW1-1, a fungus isolated from the common pillbug (Armadillidium vulgare), has resulted in the isolation of nine new highly oxygenated cytochalasan alkaloids, armochaetoglobins S-Z (1 and 3-9) and 7-O-acetylarmochaetoglobin S (2), together with eight structurally related known analogues (10-17). Their structures and absolute c...
متن کاملDraft Genome Sequence of the Cellulolytic Fungus Chaetomium globosum
Chaetomium globosum is a filamentous fungus typically isolated from cellulosic substrates. This species also causes superficial infections of humans and, more rarely, can cause cerebral infections. Here, we report the genome sequence of C. globosum isolate CBS 148.51, which will facilitate the study and comparative analysis of this fungus.
متن کاملToxicity to rats of corn invaded by Chaetomium globosum.
Of 53 isolates of Chaetomium globosum Kunze isolated from corn, manufactured feed, and fiberboard, grown on autoclaved corn, and fed to rats, 25 were lethal within 4 to 6 days. Thirty-six single ascospore cultures of one isolate were uniformly lethal when similarly grown and fed to rats. Incubation of the fungus on corn for 6 to 8 weeks resulted in greater toxicity than shorter incubation times...
