Abstract: | Tubiferal A, a novel rearranged triterpenoid lactone, has been isolated from field-collected fruit bodies of the myxomycete, Tubifera dimorphotheca, and its structure elucidated by spectral data. Tubiferal A (1) possesses a 9,10-secocycloartan-16,21-olide skeleton, and this new compound exhibited a reversal effect of vincristine (VCR) resistance (more than 4-fold) against VCR-resistant KB cell lines. Tubiferal B (2), corresponding to the seco acid of 1 was also isolated, but showed no comparable activity. |
