Abstract

Two new alkaloids, Aspera chaetominines A (1) and B (2), a new derivative (3) of terrein, and together with 11 known compounds (4–14) were isolated from marine sponge Callyspongia sp. -derived fungus Aspergillus versicolour SCSIO XWS04 F52, which was identified on the basis of morphology and ITS sequence analysis. The planar structures of 1–3 were determined by spectroscopic (1H, 13C NMR, HSQC, HMBC, and 1H-1H COSY), and MS analysis. Compounds 1 and 2 showed cytotoxic activity against leukaemia K562 and colon cancer cells SW1116 with IC50 7.5 to 12.5 μM, and also compounds 1 and 2 exhibited significant protection against H1N1 virus-induced cytopathogenicity in MDCK cells with IC50 values of 15.5 and 24.5 μM, respectively.
