Six new metabolites, actinofuranones D-I (compounds 1-6), were isolated together with three known compounds-JBIR-108 (7), E-975 (8), and E-492 (9)-from a fermentation broth of Streptomyces gramineus derived from the lichen Leptogium trichophorum. The structures of the new compounds 1-6 were established using comprehensive NMR spectroscopic data analysis, as well as UV, IR, and MS data. The anti-inflammatory activity of these isolated compounds were evaluated by examining their ability to inhibit nitric oxide (NO) production in LPS-stimulated RAW 264.7 macrophage cells. Compounds 4, 5, 8, and 9 attenuated the production of NO due to the suppression of the expression of nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in LPS-induced RAW 264.7 cells. Moreover, 4, 5, 8, and 9 also inhibited LPS-induced release of proinflammatory cytokines interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha).
