A new pentanorlanostane, ganosineniol A (1), eight new lanostane triterpenoids, ganosinoside A (2), ganoderic acid Jc (3), ganoderic acid Jd (4), ganodermatetraol (5), ganolucidic acid γa (6), ganolucidate F (7), ganoderiol J (8), and methyl lucidenate Ha (9), and a new sesquiterpenoid, ganosinensine (10), together with eleven known triterpenoids (11-21), were isolated from the fruiting bodies of the fungus Ganoderma sinense. Chemical structures were determined based on spectroscopic evidence, including 1D, NMR-2D, and mass spectral data. Furthermore, all isolates were tested for cytotoxic activity and induction ability of hPXR-mediated CYP3A4 expression. Among them, ganoderic acid Jc (3) displayed selective inhibitory activity against HL-60 cells (IC 50 = 8.30 μM), and ganoderiol E (11) exhibited selective cytotoxic activity against MCF-7 cells (IC 50 = 6.35 μM). Meanwhile, compounds 5, 7, and ganolucidic acids B and C (19, 20) showed induction ability of hPXR-mediated CYP3A4 expression.
