Fumitremorgin B (3 or 4 days) inhibits the proliferation of U937 and PC3 cells, with IC50 of 14.12 and 43.36 μM, respectively[2]. Fumitremorgin B exhibits antifungal activities against the phytopathogenic fungi B. cinerea, A. solani, A. alternata, C. gloeosporioides, F. solani, F. oxysporum f. sp. niveum, F. oxysporum f. sp. vasinfectum, and G. saubinettii, with MICs of 6.25-50 μg/mL[3].
