Abstract
Seven novel linear polyketides, talaketides A−G (1−7), were isolated from the rice media cultures of the mangrove sediment-derived fungus Talaromyces sp. SCSIO 41027. Among these, talaketides A−E (1−5) represented unprecedented unsaturated linear polyketides with an epoxy ring structure. The structures, including absolute configurations of these compounds, were elucidated through detailed analyses of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and high-resolution mass spectrometry (HR-MS) data, as well as electronic custom distributors (ECD) calculations. In the cytotoxicity screening against prostate cancer cell lines, talaketide E (5) demonstrated a dose-dependent inhibitory effect on prostate cancer PC-3 cell lines, with an IC50 value of 14.44 μmol·L−1 . Moreover, compound 5 significantly inhibited the cloning formation of PC-3 cell lines and arrested the cell cycle in S-phase, ultimately inducing apoptosis. These findings indicate that compound 5 may serve as a promising lead compound for the development of a potential treatment for prostate cancer.
