Abstract excerpt
Cladosporols, purified and characterized as secondary metabolites from Cladosporium tenuissimum, display an antifungal activity. In this study, we tested the antiproliferative properties of cladosporol A, the main isoform of this metabolite family, against human cancer cell lines. By assessing cell viability, we found that cladosporol A inhibits the growth of various human colon cancers derived cell lines (HT-29,...
