Two new diterpenoids, hypoxyterpoids A (1) and B (2), and four new isocoumarin derivatives, hypoxymarins A–D (4–7), together, with seven known metabolites (3 and 8–13) were obtained from the crude extract of the mangrove-derived fungus Hypoxylon sp. The structures of the new compounds were elucidated on the basis of 1- and 2-dimensional (1D/2D) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopic and mass spectrometric analysis. The absolute configurations of compounds 1, 2, 4, 5, and 7 were determined by comparison of experimental and calculated electronic circular dichroism (ECD) spectra, and the absolute configurations of C-4′ in 6 and C-9 in 7 were determined by [Rh₂(OCOCF₃)₄]-induced ECD spectra. Compound 1 showed moderate α-glucosidase inhibitory activities with IC₅₀ values of 741.5 ± 2.83 μM. Compounds 6 and 11 exhibited DPPH scavenging activities with IC₅₀ values of 15.36 ± 0.24 and 3.69 ± 0.07 μM, respectively.

The function of nuclear-localized mitochondria remains unknown. We found that mitochondria assembled dense particles to fragment and disperse into the particles, which reassembled to initiate nuclear formation and development. Individually-formed nuclei in one single cell were joined together by mitochondrial fragmentation concurrently partitioning cytoplasm to form an intranuclear inclusion (INC), whose creation was not related to herniation or invagination of the cytoplasm. Along with the nuclear transition of a mitochondrion and its neighboring counterparts, the organelle included itself in the nucleus to become nuclear mitochondrion through peripherally assembling of dense particles. New medium reversed the nuclear formation of the organelles to recovery and re-establishment via the return of the particles, which consisted of dense microvesicles (MIVs).
