Beauveria sp. FO-6979, a soil isolate, was found to produce inhibitors of lipid droplet formation in mouse peritoneal macrophages. A new compound beauveriolide III was isolated along with a known compound beauveriolide I from the fermentation broth of the producing strain by solvent extraction, ODS column chromatography, silica gel column chromatography and preparative HPLC. Beauveriolides I and III caused a reduction in the number and size of cytosolic lipid droplets in macrophages at 10 microM without any cytotoxic effect on macrophages.
球孢白僵菌属菌株FO-6979是从土壤中分离得到的,研究发现其能产生抑制小鼠腹腔巨噬细胞中脂滴形成的物质。通过溶剂萃取、ODS柱色谱法、硅胶柱色谱法和制备型高效液相色谱法,从该产生菌的发酵液中分离出一种新化合物白僵菌素III以及一种已知化合物白僵菌素I。白僵菌素I和III在浓度为10微摩尔时可使巨噬细胞中胞质脂滴的数量和大小减少,且对巨噬细胞无任何细胞毒性作用。
