Abstract: | In the course of screening for a new anti-hyperlipidemic agent from microbial products, we found that FR177391, produced by Serratia liquefaciens No. 1821, alleviated the decrease in lipid droplet formation in differentiated 3T3-L1 adipocyte cells, induced by the addition of tumor necrosis factor-alpha. Structural elucidation by spectroscopic methods and X-ray crystallographic analysis of its propylamide derivative revealed that FR177391 was a chlorinated macrocyclic lactone. |
