TL;DR: Three new 3,6-disubstituted α-pyrones, nocapyrones H-J (1-3), were isolated from the marine actinomycete Nocardiopsis sp.
Abstract: Three new 3,6-disubstituted α-pyrones, nocapyrones H-J (1-3), were isolated from the marine actinomycete Nocardiopsis sp. KMF-001. Their structures were assigned to be 3-alkylated 6-(1-methyl-1-propenyl)-2H-pyran-2-ones on the basis of UV, MS, NMR, and high resolution (HR)-FAB-MS analyses. Nocapyrone H (1) reduced the pro-inflammatory factor such as nitric oxide (NO), prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) and interleukin-1β (IL-1β). Moreover, nocapyrone H showed 5.82% stronger inhibitory effect on NO production than chrysin at a concentration of 10 µM in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated BV-2 microglial cells.

TL;DR: Two new cyclic diarylheptanoids, diosniponol A and B, together with 10 known compounds were isolated from the rhizomes of Dioscorea nipponica, and showed potent inhibitory activities on NO production without cell toxicity in lipopolysaccharide-activated BV-2 cells.

TL;DR: Evaluated H. longipes as a functional food for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease resulted in the identification of three new steroidal compounds, longipenane, 26-O-β-d-glucopyranoside and neogitogenin.
