Diaportholides A (1) and B (2), two polyketides with ɑ-pyrone moieties, were isolated from the cultures of an endophytic Diaporthe sp. ECN371 isolated from Orixa japonica, together with four known polyketides, phomopsolide B (3), phomopsolidones A (4) and B (5), and 5-[(1R)-1-hydroxyethyl]-γ-oxo-2-furanbutanoic acid (6). The structures of 1 and 2 were determined by extensive analysis of NMR and MS spectroscopic data. Furthermore, the structure of 2 was confirmed by analyzing the single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. The luciferase reporter gene assay revealed that among all isolated compounds (1–6), 3, a known ɑ-pyrone derivative, exhibited agonistic activity against the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor ɑ, which is an important regulator of lipid metabolism in humans.
