Antimicrobial Effects of Some Persian Gulf Marine Sponges
Background: We investigated in vitro antimicrobial activity of five marine sponge species collected from Kish Island in the Persian Gulf: Fascaplysinopsis reticulata, Callyspongia clavatus, Callyspongia siphonella, Niphates furcata, and Pseudosuberites clavatus against gram positive bacteria, gram negative bacteria, fungi and yeasts. Materials and Methods: Sponage extracts were prepared by two ...
متن کاملRectal Glands of Marine and Fresh-Water Sharks: Comparative Histology.
The rectal glands of elasmobranchs perform the function of salt-excreting organs. These glands are smaller and show regressive changes in specimens of the bull shark, Carcharhinus leucas found in fresh-water environment, compared with specimens of this and other species from a marine habitat.
متن کاملBiotechnological potential of marine sponges
Marine sponges (Porifera) have attracted significant attention from various scientific disciplines. Remarkable traces, left by sponges in the fossil records have been studied by paleontologists and evolutionary biologists. As sponges produce various novel chemical molecules, they have been a goldmine to chemists and also found their way into biotechnological applications. Microbiologists became...
متن کاملMicrobial diversity of marine sponges.
The recent application of molecular microbial ecology tools to sponge-microbe associations has revealed a glimpse into the biodiversity of these microbial communities, that is considered just 'the tip of the iceberg'. This chapter provides an overview over these new findings with regard to identity, diversity and distribution patterns of sponge-associated microbial consortia. The sponges Aplysi...
متن کاملMolecular docking and druggability studies of terpenoid-derived metabolites from marine sponges as IL-17A inhibitors
In this study, physicochemical properties of 49 compounds extracted from anti-inflammatory sponge species with the aim of ADMET test and Lipinski rule of five have been determined. Fourteen compounds, which showed best results, were subjected to molecular docking studies with IL-17. Among these compounds, Four compounds with low binding energy were obtained. These compounds, namely, frondosins ...
