Fungal Isobisvertinol, a New Inhibitor of Lipid Droplet Accumulation in Mouse Macrophages

摘要

New isobisvertinol and known bisvertinol were isolated from the culture broth of Aspergillus sp. FKI-1746. Isobisvertinol with the two alkenyl side chains extending in the same direction inhibited lipid droplet accumulation in macrophages, whereas bisvertinol with those extending in the reverse direction had almost no effect on the accumulation.
