Metabolite Identification
Common NameBerkeleyacetal C
DescriptionBerkeleyacetal C is a meroterpenoid, a chemical class that combines terpenoid and non-terpenoid structures, and is a metabolite isolated from the fungus Penicillium purpurogenum. This compound has garnered attention for its significant biological activities, particularly its anti-inflammatory effects. Research indicates that berkeleyacetal C exerts these effects by inhibiting critical signaling pathways, including NF-κB, ERK1/2, and IRF3 (PMID:28865677 ). Furthermore, it has been shown to reduce nitrogen oxide (NO) production in macrophages stimulated by lipopolysaccharide (LPS), highlighting its potential as an anti-inflammatory agent (PMID:28865677 ). Additional studies have demonstrated that berkeleyacetal C inhibits interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase-4 activity, further contributing to its anti-inflammatory profile (PMID:23127497 ). The structural characterization and configuration revisions of berkeleyacetal C, along with related compounds, were detailed in a study that isolated various secondary metabolites from Penicillium purpurogenum (PMID:34978193 ). Overall, the multifaceted bioactivity of berkeleyacetal C positions it as a compound of interest in the exploration of therapeutic agents targeting inflammatory processes.
