(±)-Dunnione is a naturally occurring naphthoquinone with diverse biological activities.[1][2][3][4]  It exhibits fungicidal activity against ten agriculturally relevant plant fungi in vitro (MICs = 5-20 mg/L) and in infected wheat and barley plants (EC50s = 2-20 mg/L)[1]. (±)-Dunnione also reduces the growth of T. cruzi epimastigotes (IC50 = 4.01 μM)[2]. It is a substrate for NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) that increases production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and induces cell death of A549 lung carcinoma cells (IC50 = 6.1 μM).[3] (±)-Dunnione (20 mg/kg per day for 4 days) increases intracellular NAD+ and prevents inflammatory cytokine production and small intestinal damage induced by cisplatin in mice.[4]
