The bis(indolyl)imidazole alkaloid nortopsentin a exhibits antiplasmodial activity.
A library of enriched marine natural product fractions was screened for their antiplasmodial activity using a SYBR green I fluorescence-based assay. Fractions derived from a sponge of the genus Spongosorites exhibited potent inhibition of Plasmodium falciparum growth. This genus of sponge has been reported to contain the nortopsentin and topsentin class of bis-indole imidazole alkaloids. This i...
متن کاملSynthesis and Antiproliferative Activity of 2,5-bis(3′-Indolyl)pyrroles, Analogues of the Marine Alkaloid Nortopsentin
2,5-bis(3'-Indolyl)pyrroles, analogues of the marine alkaloid nortopsentin, were conveniently prepared through a three step procedure in good overall yields. Derivatives 1a and 1b exhibited concentration-dependent antitumor activity towards a panel of 42 human tumor cell lines with mean IC50 values of 1.54 μM and 0.67 μM, respectively. Investigating human tumor xenografts in an ex-vivo clonogen...
متن کاملHalogenation as a Strategy to Improve Antiplasmodial Activity: A Report of New 3-Alkylpyridine Marine Alkaloid Analogs
Introduction: Due to the emergence of resistance to antimalarial drugs as well as the lack of vaccination for malaria, there is an urgent demand for the development of new antimalarial alternatives. Recently, our research group developed a new set of 3-alkylpyridine marine alkaloid analogs, of which a compound known as compound 5 was found to be inactive against Plasmodium ...
متن کاملPotent and selective antiplasmodial activity of the cyanobacterial alkaloid nostocarboline and its dimers.
The quaternary beta-carbolinium alkaloid nostocarboline from the cyanobacterium Nostoc 78-12A and 10 bis-cationic dimeric derivatives were evaluated against four protozoan parasites and low micromolar values against Trypanosoma brucei, submicromolar values against Leishmania donovani and low nanomolar values against Plasmodium falciparum K1 were determined. Selectivity against rat myoblasts (L6...
