  • Title: Evaluation of acrodontiolamide, a chlorinated compound produced by Acrodontium salmoneum de Hoog for cytotoxicity and antimicrobial activity.
    Author: Steiman R, Benoit-Guyod JL, Guiraud P, Seigle-Murandi F.
    Journal: Pharmazie; 1995 Oct; 50(10):693-5. PubMed ID: 7501692.
    Abstract:
    A new antifungal compound has been isolated from the culture medium of Acrodontium salmoneum de Hoog. Its structure was previously elucidated and was named acrodontiolamide. However, this compound is not characteristically produced by the genus Acrodontium, it is rather a feature of one isolate of A. Salmoneum coming from the soil of the grotto of La Pierre Saint Martin (France). Production, purification, cytotoxicity and antimicrobial activities of acrodontiolamide are described. Concerning microorganisms, inhibitory activity seems to be specifically restricted to phytopathogenic and entomapathogenic fungi. Acrodontiolamide is not cytotoxic to either normal human cultured cells or tumor cells.
