Five new lumazine peptides (1-5), a new aspochalasin derivative (6), and a new γ-butyrolactone derivative (7), together with seven known compounds (8-14), were isolated from a Hawaiian fungal strain, Aspergillus flavipes FS888. Compound 1 is an uncommon natural product containing an isocyano group. The structures of the new compounds 1-7 were elucidated by NMR spectroscopy, HRESIMS, chemical derivatization, and ECD analysis. Compounds 12-14 showed significant antibacterial activity against S. aureus when in combination with disulfiram. Additionally, compounds 9 and 13 showed NF-κB inhibitory activity with IC50 values of 3.1 ± 1.0 and 10.3 ± 2.0 μM, respectively.
