Sterol-like natural products and other secondary metabolites with antimicrobial and antiplasmodial activities from Penicillium tanzanicum

Year: 2026

Type: article

Abstract: values of 26.58 and 15.03 µM, respectively, accompanied by low haemolytic effects. These findings underscore the potential of fungi from underexplored ecological niches as sources of new anti-infective leads warranting further optimisation and preclinical evaluation.
