Broad-Spectrum Antiviral Natural Products from the Marine-Derived Penicillium sp. IMB17-046

A new pyrazine derivative, trypilepyrazinol (1), a new alpha-pyrone polyketide, (+)-neocitreoviridin (2), and a new ergostane analogue, 3 beta-hydroxyergosta-8,14,24(28)-trien-7-one (3), were isolated and characterized along with five known compounds from the marine-derived fungus Penicillium sp. IMB17-046. The structures of these new compounds were determined using spectroscopic data analyses (HRESIMS, 1D- and 2D-NMR), X-ray crystallography analysis, and TDDFT ECD calculation. Compounds 1 and 3 exhibited broad-spectrum antiviral activities against different types of viruses, including human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis C virus (HCV), and influenza A virus (IAV), with IC50 values ranging from 0.5 to 7.7 mu M. Compounds 1 and 2 showed antibacterial activities against Helicobacter pylori, a causative pathogen of various gastric diseases, with minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values of 1-16 mu g/mL.
