TL;DR: Three new 14-membered resorcylic acid lactones, two with a rare natural acetonide group and one with a 5-chloro-substituted lactone, named cochliomycins A-C (1-3), together with four known analogues were isolated from the culture broth of Cochliobolus lunatus, a fungus obtained from the gorgonian Dichotella gemmacea collected in the South China Sea.

TL;DR: Three metabolites named phomopsin A, B and C, together with two known compounds cytosporone B (4) and C (5), were isolated from the mangrove endophytic fungus, Phomopsis sp.

TL;DR: The available findings indicate that epigenetics occurred in association with Cd induction of malignant transformation of cells and pathological proliferation of tissues, suggesting that epigenetic effects may play a role in Cd toxic, particularly carcinogenic effects.

TL;DR: Five new hydroanthraquinone derivatives, tetrahydroaltersolanols C-F (1-4) and dihydroalersolanol A (5), and five new alterporriol-type anthranoid dimers, altersporriols N-R (12-16), along with seven known analogues (6-11 and 17), were isolated from the culture broth and the mycelia of Alternaria sp.

TL;DR: Four new norsesquiterpene peroxides, named talaperoxides A-D (1-4), as well as one known analogue, steperoxide B (5, or merulin A), have been isolated from a mangrove endophytic fungus, Talaromyces flavus, by elucidated mainly by 1D and 2D NMR.
