Abstract
Two new meroterpenoids, arthrinones A and B (1 and 2), along with six known compounds (3-8), were obtained from the fungus Arthrinium sp. SCSIO 41306. Comprehensive methods such as chiral-phase HPLC analysis and ECD calculations were applied to determine the absolute configurations. Griseofulvin (5), kojic acid (6), and 1H-indole-3-carboxaldehyde (8) showed inhibition of NF-κB in RAW 264.7 macrophages induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) with IC50 values of 22.21, 13.87 and 19.31 μM, respectively. In addition, griseofulvin (5) inhibited receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL)-induced osteoclast differentiation in a dose-dependent manner without visible evidence of cytotoxicity in bone marrow macrophages (BMMs). This is the first report on the activity of griseofulvin (5) to inhibit osteoclast formation (IC50 10.09±0.21 μM).
