Abstract |
Bioassay-guided fractionation resulted in the isolation of four antifungal agents from the roots of Cudrania cochinchinensis. Two of these were new compounds, cudraxanthone S [1, 1,3,5,6-tetrahydroxy-2-(1,1-dimethyl-2-propenyl)xanthone] and cudraflavanone B (2, 2',4',5,7-tetrahydroxy-6-prenylflavanone). The remaining two compounds were known compounds, toxyloxanthone C (3) and wighteone (4). Among these compounds, 1, 3, and 4 exhibited antifungal activities against Cryptococcus neoformans, Aspergillusfumigatus, and A. nidulans (MICs = 2-8 microg/mL). Compounds 1 and 3 also showed antifungal activity against Candida glabrata (MICs = 4-8 microg/mL). |
