چکیده
Two new 9,11-secosteroids, 22α-acetoxy-24-methylene-3β,6α,11-trihydroxy-9, 11-seco-cholest-7-en-9-one (1) and 11-acetoxy-24-methylene-1β,3β,6α-trihydroxy-9, 11-seco-cholest-7-en-9-one (2), as well as two known norcembranoids, 5-epi-sinuleptolide (3) and sinuleptolide (4), were isolated from the soft coral Sinularia nanolobata. The structures of these metabolites were elucidated on the basis of extensive spectroscopic analysis. The anti-HCMV (human cytomegalovirus) activity of 1-4 and its cytotoxicity against selected cell lines were evaluated.

The essential oil extracted from the soft coral of Sinularia sp. have been extracted by soxhlet and analyzed by gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (GC–MS). The principal compounds were found to be δ-Cadinene (12.4%), α-terpinene (10.7%) and α-Muurolene (8.3%). It is worth mentioning the presence of sesquiterpenes and diterpenes as main compounds of the essential oil. This is the fi...
متن کاملNorcembranoidal diterpenes from a Formosan soft coral Sinularia sp.
Two norcembranoidal diterpenes, 5-episinuleptolide acetate (1) and scabrolide D (2), were isolated from a Formosan octocoral identified as Sinularia sp. The structures of norcembranoids 1 and 2 were established by spectroscopic methods and by comparison of the spectral data with those of known analogues and 1 was proven to be a new natural product. Norcembranoid 1 was found to exhibit cytotoxic...
متن کاملCytotoxic Effect of the Genus Sinularia Extracts on Human SCC25 and HaCaT Cells
Soft corals of the genus Sinularia are being increasingly adopted to treat a wide variety of disease processes. However, the mechanism underlying its activity against human oral cancer cells is poorly understood. This study evaluates the cyototoxicity effects of the genus Sinularia extracts (S. grandilobata, S. parva, S. triangula, S. scabra, S. nanolobata and S. gibberosa) by SCC25 and HaCaT c...
