Abstract:
(±)-Dispirocochlearoids A-C (1-3), meroterpenoids with a 6/6/5/6/6/6 ring system, were isolated from Ganoderma cochlear. 1-3 are selective COX-2 inhibitors with an IC50 value of (-)-2 at 386 nM. Site-directed mutagenesis identified His351 as a COX-2 active site. In vivo anti-inflammatory activities of (-)-2 were performed against acute lung injury in mice.
