The fungus Emericella nidulansvar. acristata was isolated as an endophyte from a Mediterranean green alga. Cultivation of this fungus yielded two new compounds, arugosins G (1) and H (2), together with the known metabolites 3−9. Arugosins (1−4) are benzophenone derivatives, biosynthetically related to the xanthones 5, 6, and 9. The indole alkaloid 7displayed antitumor activity in a panel of 36 human tumor cell lines, exhibiting a mean IC50value of 5.5 g/mL in an in vitro survival and proliferation assay. Furthermore, compounds 3and 4showed moderate antitumor activity toward individual tumor cell lines. None of compounds 1−8exhibited any immunostimulatory activity assessed as the capacity to induce cytokines in PBMCs from healthy donors. |
