Chemical investigation of an endophytic fungus Chaetomium globosum isolated from leaves of Wikstroemia uva-ursi led to the isolation of two new azaphilones, chaetoviridins J and K (1 and 3), along with five known derivatives (2 and 4-7). The structures of azaphilones were determined by NMR, X-ray diffraction, Mosher's method, and CD analysis. The isolated compounds were evaluated for their cancer chemopreventive-potential based on their abilities to inhibit tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha)-induced nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-kappa B). Compounds 4, 5, 7, and synthetic 8 and 9 inhibit nitric oxide (NO) production with IC50 values in the range of 0.3-5.8 mu M. Compounds 4, 5, and 9 also displayed (TNF-alpha)-induced NF-kappa B activity with IC50 values in the range of 0.9-5.1 mu M. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
