Estudo químico-biológico dos fungos endofíticos \'Cladosporium sphaerospermum, Pestalotiopsis guepini e Chaetomium globosum\' / Chemical and biological study of the endophytic fungi Cladosporium sphaerospermum, Pestalotiopsis guepini and Chaetomium globosum.Momesso, Luciano da Silva 29 August 2008 (has links)
Três fungos endofíticos isolados de Viguiera robusta (Asteraceae) foram cultivados em três meios de cultivo distintos (Czapek, arroz e extrato de malte) e também em culturas binárias em extrato de malte. Para a extração dos cultivos em extrato de malte foi utilizada a resina diaion HP-20, que promove a adsorção dos metabólitos produzidos pelo fungo, aumentando o rendimento dos extratos. Os extratos e frações obtidos foram submetidos à análise química por meio de técnicas cromatográficas e RMN 1H e a ensaios diversos biológicos para a comparação de seus perfis. O estudo químico do extrato de Chaetomium globosum (VR-10), cultivado em arroz, levou a isolamento da substância S1 (chaetoglobosina E), que apresenta elevada atividade citotóxica e é uma ferramenta importante em biologia química. Também de C. globosum foi isolado a substância S2 (dimetil-tereftalato), o qual já foi identificado como metabólito de fungo endofítico e também de planta. De Pestalotiopsis guepini (VR-8), cultivado em Czapek, foi isolada a substância S3 (tirosol), relatado na literatura como molécula sinalizadora em Candida albicans. Do fungo Cladosporium sphaerospermum (VR-2), após cultivo em arroz, foram isoladas três substâncias: marcfortina A (S4), a marcfortina B (S5) e a marcfortina C (S6) e (S7), substâncias com pronunciada atividade antiparasitária. Foi desenvolvido um método via CLAE-DAD-MS/MS para identificação rápida de derivados de marcfortina, o qual possibilitiou a identificação da substância S7 (marcfortina D) no extrato bruto de C. sphaerospermum. A análise conformacional da marcfortina A (S4) foi realizada através de experimentos de NOE-diff e técnicas de modelagem molecular. Os resultados obtidos nos bioensaios após diferentes cultivos dos fungos endofíticos indicaram que estes são fontes promissoras de substâncias bioativas, constituindo ferramentas importantes na busca por novos compostos. / Three endophytic fungi isolated from Viguiera robusta (Asteraceae) were cultivated in three different culture media (Czapek, rice and malt extract) and also in mixed cultures in the malt extract medium. Diaion HP-20 resin was used for the malt extract cultures extraction increasing the yields of the extracts. Extracts and fractions have been submitted to chemical analyses by chromatographic techniques and 1H NMR, and also to several bioassays for the comparison of their chemical and biological profiles. Chemical study of the rice culture extract from Chaetomium globosum (VR-10) gave the citotoxic compound S1 (chaetoglobosin E), an important chemical biology tool. C. globosum also led to the isolation of compound S2 (dimethyl-terephthalate), previously isolated from an endophytic fungus and also from plants. Compound S3 (tyrosol) has been isolated from the Czapek culture extract of Pestalotiopsis guepini (VR-8). Tyrosol has been reported as a quorum sensing molecule in Candida albicans. Three compounds have been isolated from Cladosporium sphaerospermum (VR-2) rice cuture extract: marcfortine A (S4), marcfortine B (S5) and marcfortine C (S6). Marcfortines have been reported as potent antiparasitic compounds. A HPLC-DAD-MS/MS was developed for the rapid identification of marcfortine derivatives, which allowed the identification of compound S7 (marcfortine D) in the crude extract from C. sphaerospermum. The conformational analysis of marcfortine A (S4) was carried out by NOE-diff experiments and molecular modeling techniques. Bioassays results showed that the endophytic fungi should be considered as promising sources of novel and bioactive compounds.

New Anticancer Secondary Metabolites from an Endophytic Fungus Chaetomium Nigricolor Isolated from Catharanthus Roseus : Structural Elucidation and Molecular Mechanism Underlying Anticancer EffectsGeethanjali, D January 2017 (has links) (PDF)
Cancer has become a major health problem due to its high rate of morbidity and mortality. Severe side effects associated with most of the available anticancer drugs and the development of the drug resistant cells are the major hurdles limiting their application and therapeutic success. Much attention has thus been focused on natural compounds with minimal or no toxicity in humans and having capacity to suppress proliferation and/or induce apoptosis in cancer cells. Therefore, it is imperative to discover and develop new anticancer drugs. Endophytic fungi though underexploited have remained a rich source of structurally novel and biologically active secondary metabolites. That they are a prolific resource for new compounds in drug discovery is evident from a plethora of reported research findings of the recent past. Those of endophytic fungi especially isolated from medicinal plants with known therapeutic value have especially caught the attention of several research groups worldwide for the production of host associated or novel lead molecules. In this backdrop, the focus of my research work has been centered on exploring the endophytic fungal population associated with Catharanthus roseus in search of production of novel anticancer compounds.
Twenty endophytic fungi were isolated from different parts of Catharanthus roseus plant. The ethyl acetate (EA) extracts of three week grown liquid cultures of the individual endophytes were assessed in vitro for their cytotoxic activities in HeLa and HepG2 cancer cells using MTT assay. Of all the isolates thus screened, the EA extract from an isolate identified as Chaetomium nigricolor exhibited significant cytotoxicity in the tested cell lines with a better activity profile against HeLa cells. To understand if the liquid culture filtrate or the mycelium harbored the active cytotoxic principle, the C. nigricolor culture filtrate and mycelia was extracted separately using organic solvents with varying polarity namely ethyl acetate, dichloromethane, chloroform and hexane. These extracts were further tested for cytotoxicity induction in HeLa and MCF-7 cells by MTT assay. The ethyl acetate culture filtrate and mycelial extracts showed best cytotoxic activity on HeLa cells compared to other extracts; therefore, the mycelial and culture filtrate ethyl acetate extracts of C. nigricolor were pooled and was used for further work. Hexane culture filtrate extract of C. nigricolor showed best antiproliferative activity against MCF-7 cells. Thus, the compounds with anticancer potential from both ethyl acetate pooled extracts and hexane culture filtrate extract of C. nigricolor were purified using bioassay guided isolation method. This finally resulted in the isolation of two different anticancer compounds, one each from EA pooled extract and Hexane culture filtrate extracts of C. nigricolor named as compound 1 and compound 2, respectively. Based on various analyses including mass spectrometry (MS and MS-MS) and UV-visible, Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, the compounds 1 and 2 were identified as 1, 2 Bis (diethylamino) ethene-1, 2 diol (BDED) and Nonacos-4-enoic acid (NA), respectively
An improved understanding of the cellular responses to chemotherapeutic agents in cancer cells and the underlying molecular mechanisms gains particular relevance in the efforts to improve the clinical outcome of chemotherapeutic agents. Arresting the growth of cancer cells in one way or the other and induction of apoptosis in a drug specific manner is the hallmark of almost all the clinically used anticancer drugs. Towards this end, evaluation of the cytotoxic effects of the newly identified compounds on various human cancer cells was carried out. BDED was examined for in vitro cytotoxicity of against a panel of five human cancer cell lines namely HeLa, A-431, A549, COLO 205, and MCF-7. Among the cell lines screened, HeLa cells were most vulnerable to BDED treatment with an IC50 value of 27 μM. This cytotoxicity was later identified as resulting from apoptosis induction by BDED which was scored by the characteristic events of membrane externalization of phosphatidylserine, cytoplasmic shrinkage and chromatin condensation which were observed in a large majority of the BDED-treated cells. Further detailed studies were performed to delineate the cellular mechanisms of BDED-induced apoptosis in HeLa cells. Analysis of cell cycle progression by propidium iodide (PI) staining revealed BDED-induced cell cycle arrest in the G1 phase of cell cycle. The results indicated that BDED induced a significant ROS generation and a significant loss of mitochondrial membrane potential which were abrogated upon pretreatment of the cells with an antioxidant, N-acetyl cysteine (NAC). These observations suggested the probable involvement of the initial events of BDED-induced ROS production in causing cell death via mitochondria-based intrinsic pathway of apoptosis. In addition, the results from the expression profile of pro- and anti- apoptotic proteins by western blot analysis in the BDED-treated HeLa cells further corroborated this hypothesis. These included an abnormally deregulated cellular abundance of BAX 1 and BCL 2 proteins, elevated levels of APAF-1, and activated cleaved species of procaspases 9 and 3. In addition, a pronounced abundance of cleaved PARP protein was observed in these experiments. Thus, the results suggest that BDED induced apoptosis in HeLa cells via ROS mediated mitochondrial dependent pathway.
In parallel, the in vitro cytotoxic effects of NA was also studied, the second antiproliferative compound identified from hexane extracts of C. nigricolor using a panel of four human cancer cell lines - A-431, A549, COLO 205, and MCF 7. NA was thus found to be most potent against MCF 7 (breast cancer) cells. PI staining-based viability assays and microscopic observations showed a dose dependent cytotoxicity of NA on MCF 7 cells. Our data reveled an IC 50 of 40 μM for NA The NA-induced apoptosis was confirmed by flow cytometric detection of membrane externalization of phosphatidylserine using Annexin V FITC/PI dual staining. NA was also observed to induce cytotoxicity best at 72 h this could be attributed to the fact that it is a derivative of a Nonocosane-(a naturally prevalent molecule found in several vegetables). Similar to our results from BDED-treated HeLa cells, ROS generation and loss of mitochondrial membrane potential which were abrogated on pretreatment with NAC, were also observed in NA-treated MCF-7cells. Similar to several other fatty acids, NA was also observed to induce cell cycle arrest in the G1 phase of cell cycle. Further, apoptotic signature of an altered expression of anti-apoptotic BCL-2 and pro-apoptotic BAX, APAF-1 and procaspase 9 and 3 and a cleaved PARP were observed in NA-treated MCF 7 cells. In conclusion, the results indicate that BDED and NA have cytotoxic and apoptotic effects on HeLa (cervical cancer) and MCF 7 (breast cancer) cell lines, respectively. This leaves open further avenues to evaluate their potential application as anticancer agents for treatment of human cervical and breast cancers.

Utilisation de composés biosourcés pour la conception de papiers à haute résistance à l'eau et à propriétés antifongiques / Utilization of biobased compounds to design water resistant and antifungal papersLe Goué, Erwan 01 October 2019 (has links)
Ce travail de thèse a été conduit dans le but d’élaborer des papiers résistants à l’eau liquide et ayant des propriétés antifongiques, ce par utilisation de composés biosourcés. Deux approches ont été proposées : soit une modification en surface par enduction, soit une modification des fibres de cellulose. Dans le cas de la modification en surface, deux formulations d’enductions ont été étudiées. La première, composée de chitosane et de carbonate de calcium précipité (PCC) modifié, a été utilisée pour limiter le développement de moisissures et améliorer la résistance des papiers à l’eau. La formulation incorporant 20 % de PCC modifié a montré un retard de croissance significatif de la souche fongique sélectionnée en tant que souche cible. La seconde formulation, destinée à améliorer la résistance à l’eau des papiers, par enduction d'un latex prévulcanisé d’hévéa, a montré de très bons résultats, conduisant à une réduction de près de 95 % de l’absorption d’eau liquide. Toutefois, une perte d’opacité des papiers a été observée après pénétration de l’eau dans le matériau. Par conséquent, une seconde approche a été proposée, basée sur la modification physico-chimique des fibres de cellulose. Un procédé d’hybridation a été utilisé, permettant l’adsorption d’acide stéarique sur le PCC synthétisé in situ à la surface des fibres de cellulose. Un compromis entre la rétention des charges, la résistance à l’eau et les propriétés mécaniques a pu être proposé. Après détermination des conditions optimales de mise à l’échelle industrielle du procédé d’hybridation, un essai industriel a pu être réalisé et a conduit à des résultats prometteurs. / The present work investigates the creation of water-resistant and antifungal papers by using biobased compounds. Two approaches were developed: A surface modification by coating or a cellulose fibre modification. For the coating approach, two formulations were studied. The first one, consisting in chitosan and modified precipitated calcium carbonate (PCC) was mainly used to limit the development of molds while improving paper water resistance. The formulation incorporating 20 % of modified PCC showed a significant increase of the lag phase of the target fungal strain. The second coating formulation, especially designed to improve papers water resistance by a coating layer of prevulcanized natural rubber latex, showed very positive results, leading to 95 % reduction of liquid water absorption but with a negative impact on the material opacity after water penetration. As a consequence, physico-chemical modification of cellulose fibre was investigated in a second approach. An hybridization process was used, leading to stearic acid adsorption on in situ PCC synthesized at the surface of cellulosic fibres. A compromise between fillers retention, water resistance and mechanical properties was found. After determination of optimal conditions carried out to an industrial scale up, an industrial pilot was performed and gave promising results.
