The cytotoxic activity at 50 μg/ml of extracts obtained from eleven fungal strains associated to Eudistoma vannamei, an endemic ascidian from Northeast Brazil, against two cell lines, i.e., the HCT-8 (colon cancer) and the MDA-MB-435 (melanoma) cell lines, was investigated. The most promising
Benzyl isocyanide, cyclohexyl isocyanide, benzyl isocyanate, methyl isocyanate, benzyl isothiocyanate, and methyl isothiocyanate were each tested for ethylene-like activity in a pea (Pisum sativum) growth assay. Only the isocyanides gave an ethylene-like response; the concentration that gave a
