From the deep-sea-derived Fusarium sp. ZEN-48, four known compounds were obtained. Their structures were established by extensive analyses of the NMR, HR-ESI-MS, and the X-ray crystallographic data as brefeldin A (BFA, 1), brevianamide F (2), N-acetyltryptamine (3), and (+)-diaporthin (4). Although BFA was extensively investigated for its potent bioactivities, its role on TNFα-induced necroptosis was incompletely understood. In this study, BFA showed significant inhibition on TNFα-induced necroptosis by disrupting the necrosome formation and suppressing the phosphorylation of RIPK3 and MLKL (IC 50 =0.5 μM). While, it had no effect on TNFα-induced NF-κB/MAPKs activation and apoptosis. The finding raised significant implications of BFA for necroptosis-related inflammatory disease therapy and new drug development from marine fungi.
