Gliorosein is a fungal secondary metabolite produced by Gliocladium species, structurally classified as a dimethoxy-dimethylcyclohexene-dione derivative. It exhibits moderate antimicrobial and cytotoxic activity, likely through redox cycling and the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), contributing to oxidative stress in target cells. As a quinone-based compound, gliorosein may also interfere with cellular respiration by disrupting electron transport processes in microbial and tumor cells.
