Sarcosphaera crassa is a mushroom consumed in Europe and Anatolia after being cooked well. The cytotoxic activity of the extracts of unbaked S. crassa against MCF7, HT29, HeLa cancer cell lines and toxicity against PDF fibroblast healthy cell lines were studied using MTT assay. Acetone and methanol extracts of the mushroom exhibited significant cytotoxic activity. Further investigation of cytotoxic extracts afforded two new fatty acid sterols (1–2), a new ergosterol glycoside (4), and seven known compounds, including a fatty acid sterol (3), a steroid glycoside (5), two ergostanoids (6–7) and three sugars (8–10). These compounds were identified as brassicasteryl heptadecanoate (1), brassicasteryl palmitoleate (2), brassicasteryl linoleate (3), brassicasterol β-?-xylofuranoside (4), brassicasterol β-?-glucoside (5), brassicasterol (6), ergosterol-endoperoxide (7), mannitol (8), erythritol (9) and turanose (10). Among them, 7 exhibited a moderate cytotoxic activity against HeLa (IC50: 70.1 ± 2.0 μg/mL) and high activity against HT29 (IC50: 38.8 ± 0.9 μg/mL), and MCF7 (IC50: 62.9 ± 1.3 μg/mL) cancer cell lines. Compounds 4, 5, and 6 also exhibited significant cytotoxic activity against HT29 and MCF7. Moreover, all compounds exhibited weak toxicity against PDF healthy cell lines. This study indicates the potential use of Sarcosphaera crassa as a natural source of cytotoxic ergostanoids, which can be considered a dietary supplement for cancer prevention.

A library of 197 endophytic fungi and bacteria isolated from the Amazonian palm tree Astrocaryum sciophilum was extracted and screened for antibacterial activity against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Four out of five antibacterial ethyl acetate extracts were also cytotoxic for the MRC-5 cells line. Liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry (UPHLC-HRMS/MS) analyses combined with molecular networking data processing were carried out to allow the identification of depsipeptides and cyclopeptides responsible for the cytotoxicity in the dataset. Specific ion clusters from the active Luteibacter sp. extract were also highlighted using an MRSA activity filter. A chemical study of Luteibacter sp. was conducted leading to the structural characterization of eight fatty acid exhibiting antimicrobial activity against MRSA in the tens of μg/mL range.

Two new (1 and 2) and 14 known (3-16) ingenane diterpenoids were isolated from the roots of Euphorbia ebracteolata by bioassay-guided fractionation together with UPLC-MSn analysis. The absolute configurations of the new diterpenoids were established from electronic circular dichroism (ECD) data and ECD calculations. Except for ingenol (16), the ingenane diterpenoids with long aliphatic chain substituents (1-15) exhibited potent activities against HIV-1, with IC50 values of 0.7 to 9.7 nM and selectivity index values of 96.2 to 20 263. From the results, it was concluded that long aliphatic chain substituents are required for the enhanced anti-HIV activity of ingenane diterpenoids.

A novel class of species-specific modular ascarosides that integrate additional fatty acid building blocks was characterized in the nematode Caenorhabditis remanei using a combination of HPLC-ESI-(-)-MS/MS precursor ion scanning, microreactions, HR-MS/MS, MSn, and NMR techniques. The structure of the dominating component carrying a cyclopropyl fatty acid moiety was established by total synthesis. Biogenesis of this female-produced male attractant depends on cyclopropyl fatty acid synthase (cfa), which is expressed in bacteria upon entering their stationary phase.
PRODUCTION OF FATTY OLEFIN DERIVATIVES VIA OLEFIN METATHESIS
-
Paragraph 0387, (2017/06/12)
In one aspect, the invention provides a method for synthesizing a fatty olefin derivative. The method includes: a) contacting an olefin according to Formula I with a metathesis reaction partner according to Formula IIb in the presence of a metathesis catalyst under conditions sufficient to form a metathesis product according to Formula IIIb: and b) converting the metathesis product to the fatty olefin derivative. Each R1 is independently selected from H, C1-18 alkyl, and C2-18 alkenyl; R2b is C1-8 alkyl; subscript y is an integer ranging from 0 to 17; and subscript z is an integer ranging from 0 to 17. In certain embodiments, the metathesis catalyst is a tungsten catalyst or a molybdenum catalyst. In various embodiments, the fatty olefin derivative is a pheromone. Pheromone compositions and methods of using them are also described.

, p. 1929 - 1935 (2016/02/27)
The Fatty acid content and composition of fixed oil from Zanthoxylum rhetsa seeds was determined. The seeds were found to contain about ～19.5% of crude fixed oil on a dry weight basis. Fatty acids were converted into methyl esters and analyzed by GC-FID. Ten fatty acids were identified using GC-FID. The major monounsaturated and saturated fatty acids were oleic acid (41.6 - 43.5%) and palmitic acid (26.8-30.2%) respectively, whereas the α-linolenic acid (12.1 - 12.5%) and linoleic acid (10.0%) were polyunsaturated fatty acid. Stearic acid (5.2 - 6.0%), myristic acid (0.1%), traces of pentadecanoic, heptadecanoic and arachidic acid were also identified. These fatty acids have not been reported earlier from the oil of Z. rhetsa. Fixed oil exhibited significant free radical scavenging activity which was measured using DPPH, and is also known to inhibit the gastrointestinal motility significantly.

Lycopersicon esculentum (tomato) fruit is a widely studied matrix. However, only few works focus their attention on its seeds, which constitute a major byproduct of the tomato processing industry. In this study the antimicrobial potential of ten different tomato seed extracts from "Bull s heart" and "Cherry" varieties were analyzed against Gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Micrococcus luteus, Enterococcus faecalis and Bacillus cereus) and Gram-negative (Proteus mirabilis, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Salmonella typhimurium) bacteria and fungi (Candida albicans, Aspergillus fumigatus and Trichophyton rubrum). Regarding antibacterial capacity, the different extracts were revealed to be active only against Gram-positive bacteria, E. faecalis being the most susceptible one (MIC: 2.5-10 mg/mL). Concerning antifungal activity, "Bull s heart" extracts were the most active. In a general way C. albicans was the most susceptible species (MIC: 5-10 mg/mL). The chemical composition of the extracts was also pursued, concerning organic acids, phenolics and fatty acids, in order to establish a possible relationship with the observed antimicrobial effect.
