Keywords: Pleurotus florida, Pleurotaceae,ergosterol, ergosterol peroxide, cerevisterol, palmitic acid, linoleic acid, oleic acid, dilinoleoyloleoylglycerol _____________________________________________________________________________________________ INTRODUCTION Pleurotus species belong to phylum Basidiomycota that produce oyster shaped fruiting bodies (basidiocarps) and are called oyster mushroom [1]. Fruiting bodies of Pleurotus species were reported to possess a number of medicinal properties, such as anti-inflammatory, immunostimulatory and immunomodulatory[2], anticancer [3], hypoglycemic [4], and anti-HIV [5]. A review on the medicinal properties of Pleurotus species (oyster mushroom) has been provided [1]. Pleurotus florida , a species of the genus Pleurotus is widely cultivated in the Philippines as commercial oyster mushroom for food. A number of studies have been conducted on the biological activities, nutritional values and chemical constituents of this oyster mushroom. The methanol extract of P. florida Eger showed significant activity in ameliorating acute and chronic inflammation at 500 and 1000 mg/kg body weight. The extract also showed significant platelet aggregation inhibiting activity by 88% to 95% at a concentration of 500 µg/mL after a preintubation time of 5, 10 and 20 min [6]. The ethanol extract of P. florida was reported to possess appreciable antioxidant activity, as indicated by the polyphenol contents, DPPH scavenging activity, reducing power and anti- lipid peroxide effect. Furthermore, the extract showed antimicrobial activity against Escherichia coli , Staphylococcus aureus , Pseudomonas aeruginosa , Salmonella typhi , Salmonella paratyphi-A and Serretiamarcescens [7]. The aqueous extract of P. florida (100, 200, 400mg/kg) revealed an antihepatotoxic action on thioacetamide induced hepatotoxicity in rats [8].The methanol extract of P. florida has inhibited the growth of 331 www.scholarsresearchlibrary.com Consolacion Y. Ragasa et al Der Pharma Chemica, 2015, 7 (10):331-336 ___________________ __________________________________________________________ solid tumour induced by EAC cell line in a dose-dependent manner in experimental animals[9].Another study reported that P. florida yielded 113 µg ergosterol per gram of the mushroom[10]. We report herein the isolation of ergosterol ( 1), ergosterol peroxide ( 2), cerevisterol( 3) (Fig. 1), a mixture of palmitic acid and stearic acid, linoleic acid, and oleic acid in about 1.5:1:0.5 ratio, and dilinoleoyl oleoylglycerolfrom the fruiting bodies of Pleurotus florida. Fig. 1. Chemical structures of ergosterol (1), ergosterol peroxide (2), and cerevisterol (3) from Pleurotus florida MATERIALS AND METHODS General Experimental Procedure 1 13 H (500 MHz) and C (125 MHz) NMR spectra were acquired in CDCl 3 on a 500 MHz Agilent DD2 NMR spectrometer with referencing to solvent signals ( δ 7.26 and 77.0 ppm). Column chromatography was performed with silica gel 60 (70-230 mesh). Thin layer chromatography was performed with plastic backed plates coated with silica gel F 254 and the plates were visualized by spraying with vanillin/H 2SO 4 solution followed by warming. Sample Propagation and Harvesting Grain spawn of P. florida (commercial strain) was aseptically inoculated into previously pasteurized rice straw – based formulation consisting of 7 parts of composted rice straw and 3 parts of sawdust (v/v) contained in heat resistant polypropylene bags. The inoculated bags were incubated at room temperature (28-30 oC) to allow the full ramification of mycelia and the bags were subsequently transferred to the growing room for fruiting in May 2014. Fruiting bodies were harvested at marketable stage. General Isolation Procedure A glass column 18 inches in height and 1.0 inch internal diameter was packed with silica gel. The crude extracts were fractionated by silica gel chromatography using increasing proportions of acetone in CH 2Cl 2(10%increment) as 332 www.scholarsresearchlibrary.com Consolacion Y. Ragasa et al Der Pharma Chemica, 2015, 7 (10):331-336 ___________________ __________________________________________________________ eluents. Fifty milliliter fractions were collected. All fractions were monitored by thin layer chromatography. Fractions with spots of the same Rf values were combined and rechromatographed in appropriate solvent systems until TLCpure isolates were obtained. A glass column 12 inches in height and 0.5 inch internal diameter was used for the rechromatography. Two milliliter fractions were collected. Final purifications were conducted using Pasteur pipettes as columns. One milliliterfractions were collected. Isolation of the chemical constituents of the fruiting bodies of P. florida The freeze-dried fruiting bodies of P. florida (200 g) were ground in a blender, soaked in CH 2Cl 2 for 3 days and then filtered. The solvent was evaporated under vacuum to afford a crude extract (2.6 g) which was chromatographed using increasing proportions of acetone in CH 2Cl 2 at 10% increment. The CH 2Cl 2 fraction was rechromatographed (2 ×) using 5% EtOAc in petroleum ether to yield dilinoleoyl oleoyl glycerol(35 mg). The 20% acetone in CH 2Cl 2 fraction was rechromatographed (3 ×) using CH 3CN:Et 2O:CH 2Cl 2 (0.5:0.5:9, v/v) to yield 1 (22 mg)after washing with petroleum ether.The 30% acetone in CH 2Cl 2 fraction was rechromatographed using 20% EtOAc in petroleum ether. The less polar fractions were combined and rechromatographed (2 ×) using 20% EtOAc in petroleum ether to afford a mixture of palmitic acid, stearic acid, linoleic acidand oleic acid(12 mg). The more polar fractions were combined and rechromatographed (3 ×) using CH 3CN:Et 2O:CH 2Cl 2 (1:1:8, v/v) to yield 2 (9 mg) after trituration with petroleum ether. The 80% acetone in CH 2Cl 2 fraction was rechromatographed (4 ×) using CH 3CN:Et 2O:CH 2Cl 2 (2.5:2.5:5, v/v) to yield 3 (2 mg) after trituration with petroleum ether. 1 Ergosterol (1): H-NMR (500 MHz, CDC1 3): δ 5.57 (dd, J = 2.5, 5.5 Hz, H-6), 5.38 (dd, J = 2.5, 5.5 Hz, H-8),5.22 (dd, J = 7, 15.5 Hz, H-23), 5.17 (dd, J = 7.5, 15.5 Hz, H-22), 3.63 (m, H-3), 1.03(d, J = 7 Hz, H-21), 0.94 (s, H-19), 0.92 (d, J = 7.0 Hz, H-28), 0.84 ( d, J = 7 Hz, H-26), 0.82 (d, J = 7 Hz, H-27), 0.63 (s, H-18). 13 C-NMR (125 MHz, CDC1 3): δ38.4 (C-1), 32.0 (C-2), 70.4 (C-3), 40.8 (C-4), 139.8 (C-5), 119.6 (C-6), 116.3 (C-7), 141.3 (C-8), 46.2 (C-9), 37.0 (C-10), 21.10, 21.09C-11, C-21), 39.1 (C-12), 42.82, 42.81 (C-13, C-24), 54.5 (C-14), 23.0 (C-15), 28.3 (C-16), 55.7 (C-17), 12.0 (C-18), 17.6 (C-19), 40.4 (C-20), 135.6 (C-22), 132.0 (C-23), 33.1 (C-25), 19.6 (C-26), 19.9 (C-27), 16.3 (C-28). 1 Ergosterol peroxide (2): H-NMR (500 MHz, CDC1 3): δ 6.51 (d, J=8.5, H-6), 6.24 (d, J= 8.5, H-7),5.15 (dd, J = 8, 15 Hz, H-22), 5.22 (dd, J = 7.5, 15 Hz, H-23), 3.97 (m, H-3), 0.81 (s, Me-18), 0.88 (s, Me-19), 1.00 (d, J= 7 Hz, Me-21 ), 0.81 (3H, d, J = 7 Hz, H-26), 0.83 (3H, d, J = 7 Hz, H-27), 0.90 (3H, d, J = 7 Hz, H-28); 13 C-NMR (125 MHz, CDC1 3): δ34.7 (C-1), 30.1 (C-2), 66.4 (C-3), 36.93, 36.95 (C-4, C-10), 82.1 (C-5), 135.4 (C-6), 130.7 (C-7), 79.4 (C-8), 51.7 (C-9), 20.9 (C-11), 39.3 (C-12), 44.5 (C-13), 51.1 (C-14), 23.4 (C-1 5), 28.6 (C-16), 56.2 (C-17), 12.9 (C-18), 18.2 (C-19), 39.7 (C-20), 19.6 (C-21), 135.2 (C-22), 132.3 (C-23), 42.8 (C-24), 33.0 (C-25), 19.9 (C- 26), 20.6 (C-27), 17.5 (C-28). 1 Cerevisterol (3): H-NMR (500 MHz, CDCl 3): δ 5.35 (d, J = 5.3 Hz, H-7), 5.19 (dd, H-22), 5.19 (dd, H-23), 4.08 (m, H-3), 3.63 (m, H-6), 1.08 (s, H-19), 1.03 (d, J = 6.6 Hz, H-21), 0.92 (d, J = 6.8 Hz, H-28), 0.84 (d, J = 7.4 Hz, H- 27), 0.82 (d, J = 7.4 Hz, H-26), 0.60 (s, H-18).

Since the first study of deep-sea fungi in the Atlantic Ocean at a depth of 4450 m was conducted approximately 50 years ago, hundreds of isolates of deep-sea fungi have been reported based on culture-dependent methods. To date more than 180 bioactive secondary metabolites derived from deep-sea fungi have been documented in the literature. These include compounds with anticancer, antimicrobial, antifungal, antiprotozoal, and antiviral activities. In this review, we summarize the structures and bioactivities of these metabolites to provide help for novel drug development. Keywords: deep-sea fungi; bioactive compounds; anticancer; antimicrobial; antiviral; antifungal 1. Introduction Fungi are well known for their vast diversity of secondary metabolites, which include many life-saving drugs and highly toxic mycotoxins [1].

The use of these extracts is justified stronger than the other supportive treat ments based on supplements. Accepted March 24, 2020 Keywords: Hericium erinaceus, Trametes versicolor, onco logy, Published online April 21, 2020 fungi, immunomodulation INTRODUCTION The healing properties of substances available in nature have been known for centu- ries. Medical practices using extracts and infusions from plants have been described in detail by various civilizations. Many of the medicines currently in use are of natural ori- gin. These include acetylsalicylic acid, salicylate derivative obtained from willow bark (Salix, 1853), digoxin, an alkaloid of digitalis (Digitalis lanata, 1925), morphine, poppy alka- loid (Papaver somniferum, 1803) or the first anti-malarial drug – cinchona alkaloid quinine (Cinchona, 1820) (1, 2).

Hernández Padrón*, and Jaime Bermejo Barrera Centro de Productos Naturales Orgänicos Antonio Gonzalez, I.P.N.A. Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Cientificas Carretera La Esperanza 2, La Laguna, 38206 Tenerife, Canary Islands, Spain * Departamento de Botanica, Facultad de Farmacia, Universidad de La Laguna, Tenerife, Canary Islands, Spain Z. Naturforsch. 47c, 503-507 (1992); received April 24, 1992 Stereocaulon azoreum, Lichens, Triterpenes, Sterols, Depsides Column chromatography of the acetone extract of the lichen Stereocaulon azoreum afforded several substances identified by chemical and spectral means; a-amyrin, lupeol, taraxerol, ursolic acid, ergosterol peroxide, brassicasterol, cerevisterol, stictic acid and an acetone-con- densation derivative, lobaric acid. Furthermore atranorin, methyl ß-orsellinate, atranol and, for the first time from the genus Stereocaulon, cryptostictic acid and the dibenzofuran, strepsi- lin were isolated. Introduction guing species was analyzed and afforded various types of substances. Four triterpenes, a-amyrin, Stereocaulon azoreum (Schaer.) Nyl. (Stereocau- laceae, Lecanorales) is a silver-grey lichen with fru- lupeol, taraxerol and ursolic acid, three sterols, er­ ticose thallus, very ramified, graceful pseudopode- gosterol peroxide (1), brassicasterol (2), and cere­ tia covered with squamulose or coralloidsquamu- visterol (3) and various lichen compounds were lose phyllocladia, no soralia, frequent subterminal obtained. apothecia, dark-brown-blackish flat-to-convex The major lichen substances were the depsi- disk. It is saxicolous and its preferred habitat in dones stictic acid (4) and lobaric acid (5) and the the Canaries is on the lava flow found on the depside atranorin, all three of which are of particu­ lar interest in the chemotaxonomic diagnosis of “green mountainside” at 800 to1 0 0 0 m altitude where it may be very abundant locally.
