Massoia lactone ((±)-Massoia lactone) is a natural lactone-based biosurfactant with antifungal (fungal), antibiofilm, and cytotoxic activities. Massoia lactone inhibits fungal hyphal growth and spore germination, and induces fungal cell necrosis by forming membrane pores, reducing ergosterol, elevating ROS, and causing leakage of intracellular components. Massoia lactone inhibits the viability and proliferation of tumor cells. Massoia lactone degrades the extracellular polymeric substances of polymicrobial biofilms, penetrates the biofilm matrix, inhibits the growth of planktonic oral bacteria (bacterial), and reduces surface tension through its amphiphilic properties. Massoia lactone is a low-toxicity, biodegradable food additive with a coconut cream aroma, which can be used for flavor improvement and also serves as a quality control marker for Cs-4 mycelium. Massoia lactone can be used for research on Fusarium head blight, malignant tumors, and oral polymicrobial biofilm-associated dental diseases.
