A new antibiotic, funiculosin, C27H41NO7, was isolated from the filter cake of the fermented broth of Penicillium funiculosum THOM. Funiculosin is a neutral lipophilic substance which inhibits both DNA and RNA viruses as tested in infected primary chick embryo fibroblast cell monolayer and also some pathogenic fungi such as Tricophyton mentagrophytes and Candida albicans.

A new antibiotic, oryzachlorin, C26H31O8N2S2Cl(λmax 298mμ in ethanol) has been isolated from Aspergillus oryzae. It strongly inhibits the growth of many yeasts but has no effect on bacteria or filamentous fungi. It also has antiviral activity in vitro.

Ascochlorin and its analogs were isolated from the filter cake of the fermented broth of a fungus, Ascochyta viciae Libert; the compounds obtained were ascochlorin, LL-Z1272δ, LL-Z1272 ε, ascofuranone, ascofuranol and a new analog, C23H31ClO5. Some of these prenyl phenols show hypolipidemic activity in both normolipidemic and hyperlipidemic rats. Details of the structure determination for ascochlorin are presented. The structure of the new analog was elucidated as 4'-hydroxy-5'-hydroascochlorin.

A new antibiotic, cyanocycline A, was isolated from the fermentation broth of Streptomyces flavogriseus strain No. 49, a soil isolate. The molecular formula of cyanocycline A was determined to be C22H26N4O5. The antibiotic has a cyano group and a N-heterocyclic quinone moiety in its structure. Cyanocycline A was found to have broad spectrum antimicrobial and antitumor activity.

Mouse myeloid leukemia cells, Ml, were induced to differentiate into phagocytes by treatment with ascofuranone (AF). AF also induced differentiation of human promyelocytic leukemia HL60 cells and human erythroid leukemia K562 cells into granulocytes and erythrocytes, as detected by nitroblue tetrazolium reducing activity and benzidine staining, respectively. The antibiotic enhanced acetate incorporation of K562 cells. The increase was not observed with the cells of HL60 and two human B lymphoma lines, Daudi and Raji. The increase was diminished by the addition of a glycolysis inhibitor, deoxyglucose. Inhibitors of respiration, antimycin and sodium azide, also enhanced acetate incorporation of K562 cells specifically, which was diminished by the addition of deoxyglucose. Furthermore, antimycin induced differentiation of K562 and HL60 cells. These results suggest a possible relationship between cell differentiation and inhibition of respiration.

Ascofuranone significantly reduced serum lipid levels of rats fed with normal diet 6 hours after a single oral administration of 108 mg/kg. When the antibiotic was orally given for consecutive 10 days to normolipidemic rats, the treatment resulted in marked reduction of serum cholesterol, triglycerides, phospholipids and free fatty acids without affecting organ weight gain, serum total protein, albumin/globulin ratio and serum transaminases. Reduction was also noted with cardiac cholesterol content but liver total sterol and fecal sterol excretion were unchanged. Acute toxicity of ascofuranone is weak to mice and rats and the antibiotic did not induce hepatomegaly which is the main side effect of a positive control agent, ethyl-p-chlorophenoxyisobutyrate.

Ascofuranone demonstrated antitumor activity against FM3A murine mammary carcinoma, implanted in the peritoneal cavity of syngeneic mice, C3H/He. It was more effective by treatment prior to implantation than by that after implantation. Treatment with ascofuranone also increased splenic cytotoxicity and phagocytic activity of host animal cells. Moreover, ascofuranone induced inflammatory cells in the peritoneal cavity which are mainly composed of polymorpho-nuclear leukocytes and macrophages. These cells are more potent in cytotoxicity against FM3A cells than with resident peritoneal cells. The antitumor activity of ascofuranone was suppressed by ip administration of silica, just prior to tumor implantation. These results suggest that the prophylactic antitumor activity of ascofuranone is expressed through the activation of phagocytes. Ascofuranone also suppressed pulmonary metastasis of B16 melanoma and Lewis lung carcinoma. Treatment after tumor implantaion failed to suppress the metastasis. Single treatment of ascofuranone 4 days prior to implantation decreased the metastasis of Lewis lung carcinoma but not that of B16, whereas single treatment of ascofuranone 24 hours prior to the tumor implantation decreased the metastasis of B16 but not that of Lewis lung carcinoma.

A new antibiotic with hypolipidemic activity, ascofuranone, C23H29C1O5, and related substance, ascofuranol, C23H31C1O5, were isolated from the filter cake of the fermented broth of Ascochyta viciae LIBERT, an ascochlorin-producing fungus, and their structures were elucidated. They possess 3-substituted-5-chloro-orcylaldehyde moiety with novel sesquiterpenyl side chains.
