Abstract
Endophytic fungi can produce attractive secondary metabolites with various biological activities that have contributed significantly to pharmacotherapy. In this study, three bisabolane-type sesquiterpenoids, including a new one, namely, inonotic acid C (1), together with previously reported compounds (S)-(+)-11-dehydrosydonic acid (2) and sydonic acid (3), were isolated from a marine algal-derived endophytic fungus Penicillium oxalicum MZY-202312-521. Their structures were determined by means of extensive spectroscopic analyses. The absolute configurations of inonotic acid C (1) were established by single-crystal X-ray diffraction method. In vitro cytotoxic experiments on human A549, MCF-7, HeLa, and HepG2 carcinoma cell lines were carried out. The new compound inonotic acid C (1) was found to possess strong inhibitory activity against the MCF-7 cell line, with an IC50 value of 7.7 μM.
