Microbial transformation of 11α-hydroxyprogesterone (1) with Cunninghamella elegans, Gibberella fujikuroi, Fusarium lini, and Candida albicans yielded 11α,15α,16α-trihydroxypregn-4- ene-3,20-dione (3), 11α-hydroxy-5α-pregnane-3,20-dione (4), 6β ,11α-dihydroxypregn-4-ene-3,20- dione (5), 11α-hydroxypregna-1,4-diene-3,20-dione (6), 11α,17β -dihydroxyandrost-4-en-3-one (7), and 11α,15α-dihydroxypregn-4-ene-3,20-dione (8). On the other hand, microbial transformation of 17α-hydroxyprogesterone (2) with Cunninghamella elegans and Fusarium lini yielded 11α,17α- dihydroxypregn-4-ene-3,20-dione (9), and 17α-hydroxypregna-1,4-diene-3,20-dione (10). The structures of the metabolites 3 - 10 were deduced on the basis of spectroscopic methods. Compound 3 was identified as a new metabolite, which exhibited a promising inhibitory activity against the α-glucosidase enzyme.

Artemisinin (ART) is a highly effective antimalarial agent isolated from the traditional Chinese herb Qinghao. Metabolism of ART and its derivatives in the body is one of the most pressing issues for pharmaceutical scientists. Herein, an efficient in vitro microorganism model for simulation of metabolism of ART in vivo was developed employing Cunninghamella elegans. Metabolites in the microbial transformation system and plasma of mice pre-administrated ART orally were analyzed by ultra-performance liquid chromatography (UPLC)-electrospray ionization (ESI)-quadrupole time-of-flight (Q-TOF)-mass spectrometry (MSE) combined with UNIFI software. Thirty-two metabolites were identified in vitro and 23 were identified in vivo. After comparison, 16 products were found to be common to both models including monohydroxylated ART, dihydroxylated ART, deoxyartemisinin, hydroxylated deoxyartemisinin, hydroxylated dihydroartemisinin (DHA), and hydroxylated deoxy-DHA. These results revealed that C. elegans CICC 40250 functioned as an appropriate model to mimic ART metabolism in vivo. Moreover, an overall description of metabolites of ART from C. elegans CICC 40250 has been provided. Notably, DHA was detected and identified as a metabolite of ART in mouse plasma for the first time.

Microbial transformation of a cyclic sesquiterpene, (+)-cycloisolongifol-5β -ol (1), was carried out with the fungus Cunninghamella elegans, resulting in three new metabolites, cycloisolongifol-3β , 5β -diol (2), cycloisolongifol-5β -ol-11-one (3), and cycloisolongifol-3β , 5β , 11α-triol (4). The structures of new compounds were deduced on the basis of spectroscopic evidences
