Ascotricins A and B were isolated as novel sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor 1 (S1P(1)) antagonists from a cultured broth of a fungus identified as Ascotricha chartarum Berk. SANK 14186. The two compounds were purified by solvent extraction, reversed-phase (RP) column chromatography and a preparative RP-HPLC. The structures were determined by various NMR experiments and by LC/MS and GC/MS analyses. The S1P(1) antagonist activities were measured by a cyclic AMP assay using S1P(1)-expressing cells and the IC(50) values were 8.2 and 1.8 microM, respectively. In a [(33)P]sphingosine-1-phosphate/S1P(1)-binding assay, those values were 120 and 39 microM, and in a migration assay using human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs), they were 94 and 28 microM, respectively. Thus, ascotricins A and B are novel S1P(1) antagonists showing an inhibition activity toward HUVEC migration.
