Researchers discovered seven new compounds, called diterpenoids, from the fungus Biscogniauxia sp. Several showed strong anti-inflammatory activity by reducing IL-6 and TNF-α, while others blocked bone loss by preventing osteoclast formation. One compound, biscognisecoisopimarate B, had the most powerful bone-protecting effect.
