Isolation and Cytotoxic Activities of Two New 2-Pyridone Alkaloids with Unique Structures from the Beibu Gulf Coral-Derived Acremonium sclerotigenum GXIMD 02501
摘要
Two new 2-pyridone alkaloids with unique structures, campyridones E (1) and F (2), together with other four known analogues (3–6), were isolated from the Beibu Gulf coral-derived fungus Acremonium sclerotigenum GXIMD 02501. The chemical structures and absolute configurations were determined by comprehensive spectroscopic interpretation and ECD calculation. Compound 3 exhibited antiproliferative activity against KTC-1 and MDA-MB-231 cells, with IC50 values of (28.42±9.04) µmol/L and (31.91±5.58) µmol/L, respectively. Compound 4 showed cytotoxicity towards MDA-MB-231 cells with an IC50 value of (29.23±0.53) µmol/L. Their structure-activity relationships are preliminarily discussed. Notably, compound 3 inhibited colony formation with a dose-dependent manner, blocked the G1 phase of cell cycle, and further induced apoptosis of MDA-MB-231 cells, revealing a potential promising anti-cancer compound.
