Template:Chembox Footer/trackingTemplate:Short description
Altechromone A is a chromone derivative. To date, it has been isolated from plant families such as Polygonaceae, Lamiaceae, Fabaceae, and Hypericaceae.
Isolation
Altechromone A was isolated from an Alternaria sp. in 1992. It has since been isolated from fungi species such as Hypoxium trancatum, Ascomycota sp., and Alternaria brassicicola. Researchers have come to the conclusion that Altechromone A is a common fungal metabolite with its origin in endophytic fungi.[2]
Potential uses
For thousands of years, humans have used endophytic species in traditional medicines. Since Louis Pasteur began investigating microbes, science has further revealed the potential benefits of these compounds.[3] Researchers noted that this compound demonstrates both root growth promotion and inhibits bacterial production. Penicillin and other antibiotics effectively treated microbial infections. However, antibiotic misuse has resulted in resistance of pathogens to antimicrobial agents. Altechromone A could provide a source of antimicrobial agents that microbes have yet to develop a resistance to.[4] In addition, the compound could possess anti-tumor capabilities thus yielding more potential medical applications.[5]
