Inflammatory diseases caused by air pollution, especially from particulate matter (PM) exposure, have increased daily. Accordingly, attention to treatment or prevention for these inflammatory diseases has grown. Natural products have been recognized as promising sources of cures and prevention for not only inflammatory but also diverse illnesses. As part of our ongoing study to discover bioactive compounds from marine microorganisms, we isolated streptinone, a new indanone derivative (1), along with three known diketopiperazines (2–4) and piericidin A (5), from a marine sediment-derived Streptomyces massiliensis by chromatographic methods. The structure of 1 was elucidated based on the spectroscopic data analysis. The relative and absolute configurations of 1 were determined by 1H-1H coupling constants, 1D NOESY, and ECD calculation. The anti-inflammatory activities of 1 were evaluated through enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), Western blot, and qPCR. Compound 1 suppressed the production of nitric oxide (NO), prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), and pro-inflammatory cytokines such as TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1β, by inhibiting the Toll-like receptor (TLR)-mediated nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) signaling pathway. Therefore, compound 1 could potentially be used as an agent in the prevention and treatment of diverse inflammatory disorders caused by particulate matter.
