J Asian Nat Prod Res. 2016 Nov;18(11):1030-5. doi: 10.1080/10286020.2016.1183650. Epub 2016 Jun 16.

Abstract

The chemical investigation on the fruiting bodies of Amauroderma subresinosum led to the isolation of 10 compounds including 2 new ones named amaurosubresin (1) and erythro(23,24)-5α,6α-epoxyergosta-8-ene-7-one-3β,23-diol (2). Their structures were elucidated on the basis of 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy as well as MS. The bioassay of inhibitory activity against acetylcholinesterase (AChE) of two new isolates exhibited definite inhibitory activity.

Keywords: AChE inhibitory activity; Amauroderma subresinosum; Ganodermataceae; amaurosubresin; ergosta.
