Abstract

Two new indole diterpene derivatives, 5-hydroxy--aflatrem () and 14-hydroxy--aflatrem (), along with one known analogue, 14-(,-dimethl--valyloxy)paspalinine (), were isolated from the fermentation broth of the fungus sp. PQJ-1 derived from . The structures of the new compounds were elucidated from spectroscopic data and ECD spectroscopic analyses. All the compounds (-) were evaluated for their cytotoxicity against A549, Hela, Hep G2, and MCF-7 cell lines. Compounds and exhibited selective inhibition against Hela cells. Further studies showed that significantly induced apoptosis and suppressed migration and invasion in Hela cells. Moreover, could up-regulate pro-apoptotic genes BAX and Caspase-3 and down-regulate anti-apoptotic genes Bcl-xL and XIXP.
