Praeruptorin A (PA), a natural coumarin compound, has significant anti-inflammatory effects. In this study, we evaluate the anti-inflammatory effect of PA on RAW 264.7 mouse macrophages induced by Polyinosinic acid-polycytidylic acid (poly (I:C)). RAW 264.7 mouse macrophages induced by poly (I:C) were treated with or without PA, the viability of which was determined to screen working solution of PA. RNA-sequencing was applied to analyze the differentially expressed genes (DEGs). Gene ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analysis were carried out. The expressions of interleukin (IL)-1β, heme oxygenase 1 (HMOX1), prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 2 (PTGS2), ATP binding cassette subfamily A member 1 (Abca1) and NF-κB-related proteins were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and western blot. As a result, PA at 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 μM slightly affected cell viability, while PA at 6 and 7 μM significantly inhibited cell viability. GO and KEGG analysis results revealed that DEGs were mainly enriched in the pathways related to inflammatory signaling. Through further analysis, we obtained five possible targets of PA, and verified that PA inhibited the expressions of IL-1β, HMOX1, PTGS2 and Abca1 as well as the activation of NF-κB pathway in poly (I:C)-induced RAW264.7 cells. To summarize, PA may inhibit expressions of the inflammation-related genes in poly (I:C)-induced RAW264.7 cells, which demonstrates its potential as a drug against virus related diseases.

In recent years, there has been a lot of buzz about the possibilities of marine microflora as a source of new therapeutic drugs. The strong anti-tumor potency of compounds found in marine resources reflects the ocean's enormous potential as a source of anticancer therapeutics. In this present investigation, an ambuic acid derivative anticancer compound was isolated from Talaromyces flavus, and its cytotoxicity and apoptosis induction potential were analyzed. T. flavus was identified through morphological and molecular analysis. The various organic solvent extracts of T. flavus grown on different growth mediums were evaluated for cytotoxicity on different cancer cell lines. The potent cytotoxicity was shown in the ethyl acetate extract of a fungal culture grown in the M1-D medium for 21 days. Furthermore, the anticancer compound was identified using preparative thin layer chromatography, followed by its purification in significant proportions using column chromatography. The spectroscopic and chromatographic analysis revealed that the structure of the purified molecules was an ambuic acid derivative. The ambuic acid derivative compound showed potent cytotoxicity on MDA-MB-231 (breast cancer cells) with an IC50 value of 26 μM and induced apoptosis in the MDA-MB-231 cells in a time-dependent and reactive oxygen species-independent manner.
