Mesophotic coral ecosystems (MCEs) represent an underexplored source of intriguing natural products. Efforts to discover bioactive metabolites from sponge-associated fungi in MCEs identified a new steroid, acremocholone (1) and its three known analogs (2-4), from Acremonium sp. NBUF150. The Acremonium sp. NBUF150 was isolated from a Ciocalypta sponge located 70 m deep within the South China Sea. The planar structures and absolute configuration of 1-4 were determined from NMR-derived spectroscopic data, HR-ESI-MS, and X-ray crystallography. Compound 1 exhibited antimicrobial inhibition against Vibrio scophthalmi, V. shilonii and V. brasiliensis at minimum inhibitory concentrations of 8 μg/mL; compound 2 inhibited V. shilonii and V. brasiliensis at 8 and 32 μg/mL, respectively, and compound 4 inhibited growth of V. brasiliensis at 16 μg/mL. Sponge associated fungi from MCEs represent a promising resource of anti-Vibrio drug leads for aquaculture use.
中光层珊瑚礁生态系统 (MCEs) 是一类尚未充分开发的有趣天然产物资源。为了从 MCEs 中海绵共生真菌中发现具有生物活性的代谢产物,从南海 70 米深处的 Ciocalypta 海绵中分离得到的 Acremonium sp. NBUF150 中鉴定出一种新甾体 acremocholone (1) 及其三个已知类似物 (2-4)。Acremonium sp. NBUF150 的平面结构和绝对构型是通过 NMR 衍生的光谱数据、高分辨电喷雾电离质谱 (HR-ESI-MS) 和 X 射线晶体学确定的。化合物 1 对最小抑菌浓度为 8 μg/mL 的创伤弧菌、灿烂弧菌和副溶血弧菌表现出抗菌抑制作用;化合物 2 对灿烂弧菌和副溶血弧菌的抑制作用分别为 8 和 32 μg/mL,化合物 4 对副溶血弧菌的生长抑制作用为 16 μg/mL。MCEs 中的海绵共生真菌是水产养殖中抗弧菌药物的有前途的来源。
