Inotilone and related phenylpropanoid polyketides from Inonotus sp. and their identification as potent COX and XO inhibitors
Abstract
By bioassay-guided isolation, phenylpropanoid-derived polyketides, including an unusual 5-methyl-3(2H)-furanone derivative (inotilone) with potent cyclooxygenase (COX) and xanthone oxidase (XO) inhibitory activities were obtained from the fruiting body of the mushroom Inonotus sp.
