Two ergosterins and two triterpenoids were isolated from the dried fruit bodies of Ascomyce Bulgaria inquinans. By means of chemical (hydrolysis) and spectroscopic methods (NMR, EIMS), their structures were established as betuinic acid (1), cerevisterol (2), (24R)ergosta-7, $22E­diene-3\beta,\;5\alpha,\;6\beta-triol-3-O-palmitate$ (3) and ursolic acid (4). Compound 3 is a new compound.

신령버섯(Agaricus blazei Murill)은 항암, 면역력 개선, 항비만 등 다양한 효능이 알려져 있으며, 피부 효능으로는 항산화, 항염, 미백 등에 대하여 보고되었다. 이러한 효능을 뒷받침하기 위하여, 신령버섯의 성분 연구가 진행되었다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 신령버섯 추출물의 피부 효능을 재확인하고 유용한 효능성분을 밝혀내어 이를 화장품 소재로서 이용하고자 하였다. 신령버섯 추출물은 100 ㎍/mL에서 멜라닌 합성 저해, 콜라겐 합성 증진, 보습과 관련된 유전자(hyaluronan synthase-2, 3와 aquaporin-3) 발현 증가를 나타내었다. 이들 화합물은 분광학적 데이터와 문헌값을 비교하여 ergosterol (1), 5-dihydroergosterol (2), cerevisterol (3), cerebroside B (4), cerebroside D (5), adenosine (6), 및 benzoic acid (7)로 동정하였다. 이들 중 비교적 효능이 알려지지 않은 3종의 sterol (1-3)과 2종의 glucosylceramide (4, 5)에 대하여 피부효능을 평가하였으며, 그 결과 5-dihydroergosterol (2)이 마우스 흑색종 세포에서 멜라닌 생성을 억제하였으며, 또한 인간 진피 섬유아세포 세포에서 콜라겐 생합성 촉진하였다. 그리고 cerevisterol (3), cerebroside B (4), cerebroside D (5)는 마우스 대식세포에서 NO 생성을 억제하였으며, 특히 cerebroside D (5)는 인간각질형성세포에서 hyaluronan synthase-2와 aquaporin-3 유전자 발현을 증가시켰다. 따라서 신령버섯 추출물과 분리 화합물은 화장품 소재로 활용 가능 할 것으로 생각된다.

Genus Penicillium comprising the most important and extensively studied fungi has been well-known as a rich source of secondary metabolites. Our study aimed to analyze and investigate biological activities, including in vitro anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory and anti-diabetic properties, of metabolites from a marine-derived fungus belonging to P. levitum. The chemical compounds in the culture broth of P. levitum strain N33.2 were extracted with ethyl acetate. Followingly, chemical analysis of the extract leaded to the isolation of three ergostane-type steroid components, namely cerevisterol (1), ergosterol peroxide (2), and (3β,5α,22E)-ergosta-6,8(14),22-triene-3,5-diol (3). Among these, (3) was the most potent cytotoxic against human cancer cell lines Hep-G2, A549 and MCF-7 with IC₅₀ values of 2.89, 18.51, and 16.47 ㎍/mL, respectively, while the compound (1) showed no significant effect against tested cancer cells. Anti-inflammatory properties of purified compounds were evaluated based on NO-production in LPS-induced murine RAW264.7 macrophages. As a result, tested compounds performed diverse inhibitory effects on NO production by the macrophages, with the most significant inhibition rate of 81.37±1.35% at 25 ㎍/mL by the compound (2). Interestingly, compounds (2) and (3) exhibited inhibitory activities against pancreatic lipase and α-glucosidase enzymes in vitro assays. Our study brought out new data concerning the chemical properties and biological activities of isolated steroids from a P. levitum fungus.

The EtOAc and CH$_2$Cl$_2$ soluble fractions from the fruit body of Ganoderma applanatum showed strong aldose reductase inhibitory activity. Nine compounds were isolated from both fractions. They were identified by spectral data as D-mannitol (1), 2-methoxyfatty acid (2), cerebrosides [(2S,3R,4E,8E)-1-O-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranosyl-3-hydroxy-2-[(R)-2'-hydroxypalmitoyl]amino-9-methyl-4,8-octadecadiene] (3), daucosterol (4), 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid (5), protocatechualdehyde (6), 5-dihydroergosterol (7), ergosterol peroxide (8), and cerevisterol (9).

Eight compounds were isolated from the fruiting bodies of Ganoderma applanatum, and were identified as 2-methoxyfatty acids (1), 5-dihydroergosterol (2), ergosterol peroxide (3) $3{\beta},7{\beta},20,23{\zeta}-tetrahydroxy-11,15-dioxolanosta-8-en-26-oic$ acid (4), $7{\beta},20,23{\zeta}-trihydroxy-3,11,15-trioxolanosta-8-en-26-oic$ acid (5), cerevisterol (6), $7{\beta},23{\zeta}-dihydroxy-3,11,15-trioxolanosta-8,20E(22)-dien-26-oic$ acid (7), and $7{\beta}-hydroxy-3,11,15,23-tetraoxolanosta-8,20E(22)-dien-26-oic$ acid methyl ester (8) by spectral analysis. All compounds were isolated for the first time from this fruiting bodies, and their effect on rat lens aldose reductase (RLAR) activity was tested. Among these eight compounds, ergosterol peroxide (3) was found to exhibit potent RLAR inhibition, its $IC_{50}$ value being $15.4\;{\mu}g/mL$.
