Bioactive terpenoids and sterols from the fruiting bodies of Fomitopsis pinicola

A chemical investigation of the fruiting bodies of Fomitopsis pinicola was conducted, resulting in the isolation of 51 compounds, which included 16 previously undescribed lanostane triterpenes (1-14, 16-17), 30 known analogs (15, 18-46) as well as two sterols (47-48) and three diterpenes (49-51). Comprehensive analyses utilizing 1D, 2D NMR, MS and IR spectroscopy and DFT calculations of <sup>13</sup>C NMR chemical shifts have elucidated the structures of the compounds in question. Two undescribed compounds in addition to fomitosides F, G and K showed cytotoxicity against MCF-7 cell line with IC<sub>50</sub> values ranging from 11.01 to 31.92 μM. Meanwhile, these isolates showed α-glucosidase inhibitory activity, and compound 7 showed the IC<sub>50</sub> value of 9.22 μM.

Abstract

A chemical investigation of the fruiting bodies of Fomitopsis pinicola was conducted, resulting in the isolation of 51 compounds, which included 16 previously undescribed lanostane triterpenes (1-14, 16-17), 30 known analogs (15, 18-46) as well as two sterols (47-48) and three diterpenes (49-51). Comprehensive analyses utilizing 1D, 2D NMR, MS and IR spectroscopy and DFT calculations of <sup>13</sup>C NMR chemical shifts have elucidated the structures of the compounds in question. Two undescribed compounds in addition to fomitosides F, G and K showed cytotoxicity against MCF-7 cell line with IC<sub>50</sub> values ranging from 11.01 to 31.92 μM. Meanwhile, these isolates showed α-glucosidase inhibitory activity, and compound 7 showed the IC<sub>50</sub> value of 9.22 μM.
