Abstract
Funalenone, a phenalene compound that inhibits type I collagenase (MMP-1), was isolated from mycelium of Aspergillus niger FO-5904 by solvent extaction, ODS column chromatography, Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography and reversed phase HPLC. Funalenone inhibited 50 of type I collagenase activity at a concentration of 170 μM, but inhibited 18.3 and 38.7 against 72 kDa and 92 kDa type IV collagenase, respectively, at a concentration of 400 μM.
