Abstract

Six new guignardins A–F (1–6) were isolated from the cultures of endophytic fungus Guignardia sp. KcF8 derived of a mangrove plant Kandelia candel, along with three known analogues, palmarumycins C1 (7), BG1 (8), and JC1 (9). Compounds 2, 3, 7, and 8 showed antimicrobial activities. Compounds 5–7 exhibited significant cytotoxicities against 10 human tumor cell lines. Compound 3 also displayed significant inhibitory activity against human protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B and histone deacetylase silent information regulator T1enzymes, two key targets for the treatment of diabetes. This is the first report on the anti-PTP1B and anti-SIRT1 activities of spirodioxynaphthalenes.
