Popis: Resibufogenin (RB), a major bioactive bufadienolide, has the potential anticancer activity. In the present work, biotransformation of RB by Actinomucor elegans AS 3.2778 yielded five products, namely 3-oxo-resibufogenin (1), 3-epi-resibufogenin (2), 3-epi-12-oxo-hydroxylresibufogenin (3), 3α-acetoxy-15α-hydroxylbufalin (4), and 3-epi-12α-hydroxylresibufogenin (5), respectively. Among them, metabolites 3 and 4 are previously unreported. The chemical structures of metabolites 1-5 were fully elucidated on the basis of 2D NMR and HR-MS. The highly stereo- and regio-specific isomerization, hydroxylation, and esterification reactions were observed in the biotransformation process of RB by A. elegans. Their cytotoxicities against A549 and H1299 cells were evaluated.
