Description

S14-95 is an inhibitor of the JAK/STAT pathway isolated from Penicillium sp. 14-95. It inhibits the IFN-gamma mediated expression of the reporter gene with IC50 values of 2.5 to approximately 5 mg/ml. It inhibits the expression of the proinflammatory enzymes COX-2 and NOS II at 5 microg/ml (10.8 mM) in LPS/IFN-gamma stimulated J774 mouse macrophages.

1. S14-95, a novel inhibitor of the JAK/STAT pathway from a Penicillium species
Gerhard Erkel, Jan Rether, Timm Anke, Olov Sterner J Antibiot (Tokyo). 2003 Apr;56(4):337-43. doi: 10.7164/antibiotics.56.337.
In a search for new inhibitors of the IFN-gamma mediated signal transduction in HeLa S3 cells using secreted alkaline phosphatase (SEAP) as reporter gene, a novel compound, designated as S14-95 was isolated from fermentations of the imperfect fungus Penicillium sp. 14-95. The compound inhibits the IFN-gamma mediated expression of the reporter gene with IC50 values of 2.5 to approximately 5 microg/ml (5.4 to approximately 10.8 microM). Furthermore the compound inhibited the expression of the proinflammatory enzymes COX-2 and NOS II at 5 microg/ml (10.8 microM) in LPS/IFN-gamma stimulated J774 mouse macrophages. Studies on the mode of action of the compound revealed that the inhibition of the IFN-gamma dependent signaling pathway is caused by an inhibition of the phosphorylation of the STAT1alpha transcription factor. In addition, S14-95 inhibited the activation of the p38 MAP kinase, which is involved in the inducible expression of many proinflammatory genes.
2. New isocoumarin derivatives and meroterpenoids from the marine sponge-associated fungus Aspergillus similanensis sp. nov. KUFA 0013
Chadaporn Prompanya, Tida Dethoup, Lucinda J Bessa, Madalena M M Pinto, Luís Gales, Paulo M Costa, Artur M S Silva, Anake Kijjoa Mar Drugs. 2014 Oct 14;12(10):5160-73. doi: 10.3390/md12105160.
Two new isocoumarin derivatives, including a new 5-hydroxy-8-methyl-2H, 6H-pyrano[3,4-g]chromen-2,6-dione (1) and 6,8-dihydroxy-3,7-dimethylisocoumarin (2b), a new chevalone derivative, named chevalone E (3), and a new natural product pyripyropene S (6) were isolated together with 6, 8-dihydroxy-3-methylisocoumarin (2a), reticulol (2c), p-hydroxybenzaldehyde, chevalone B, chevalone C, S14-95 (4), and pyripyropene E (5) from the ethyl acetate extract of the undescribed marine sponge-associated fungus Aspergillus similanensis KUFA 0013. The structures of the new compounds were established based on 1D and 2D NMR spectral analysis, and in the case of compound 3, X-ray analysis was used to confirm its structure and the absolute configuration of its stereogenic carbons. Compounds 1, 2a-c and 3-6 were evaluated for their antimicrobial activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, Candida albicans ATCC 10231, and multidrug-resistant isolates from the environment. Chevalone E (3) was found to show synergism with the antibiotic oxacillin against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA).
3. Sporogen, S14-95, and S-curvularin, three inhibitors of human inducible nitric-oxide synthase expression isolated from fungi
Ying Yao, Michael Hausding, Gerhard Erkel, Timm Anke, Ulrich Förstermann, Hartmut Kleinert Mol Pharmacol. 2003 Feb;63(2):383-91. doi: 10.1124/mol.63.2.383.
The induction of human inducible nitric-oxide synthase (iNOS) expression depends (among other factors) on activation of the signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 (STAT1) pathway. Therefore, the STAT1 pathway may be an appropriate target for the development of inhibitors of iNOS expression. HeLa S3 cells transiently transfected with a gamma-activated site (GAS)/interferon-stimulated response element-driven reporter gene construct were used as the primary screening system. Using this system, three novel inhibitors of interferon-gamma-dependent gene expression, namely, sporogen, S14-95, and S-curvularin, were isolated from different Penicillium species. These three compounds also inhibited cytokine-induced, GAS-dependent reporter gene expression in stably transfected human A549/8-pGASLuc cells, confirming the data obtained with the above-mentioned screening system. Furthermore, in A549/8 cells, sporogen, S14-95, and S-curvularin inhibited cytokine-induced activity of the human iNOS promoter [a 16-kilobase (kb) fragment in stably transfected A549/8-pNOS2(16)Luc cells], cytokine-induced iNOS mRNA expression, and cytokine-induced nitric oxide (NO) production in a concentration-dependent manner. The proliferation of A549/8 cells, and the activity of the human eNOS promoter (a 3.5-kb fragment in stably transfected ECV-pNOS III-Hu-3500-Luc cells), were only influenced marginally by the three compounds. Sporogen, S14-95, and S-curvularin also inhibited cytokine-induced activation of STAT1alpha in A549/8 cells. In conclusion, sporogen, S14-95, and S-curvularin represent new transcriptionally based inhibitors of iNOS-dependent NO production, acting on the Janus tyrosine kinase-STAT pathway. These compounds may represent lead structures for the development of drugs inhibiting iNOS-dependent overproduction of NO in pathophysiological situations.
