Anti-HIV active petrosins from the marine sponge Petrosia similis.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A marine sponge Petrosia similis afforded two compounds which belongs to bis-quinolizidine alkaloids namely, petrosin (1) and petrosin-A (2), respectively. Petrosin (1) and petrosin-A (2) showed anti-HIV inhibition with IC(50) values of 41.3 and 52.9 microm respectively. MAGI cell assays indicated that the compounds inhibited early steps of HIV replication. In extracellular HIV-1 Reverse Transcriptase inhibition assay petrosin and petrosin-A inhibited HIV-1 RT at 10.6 and 14.8 microm. This is the first report of petroisns with anti-HIV activity.

Sterols from Thai Marine Sponge Petrosia (Strongylophora) sp. and Their Cytotoxicity
Eight new sterols (1-5 and 11-13), together with eight known compounds (6-10 and 14-16) were isolated from marine sponge Petrosia sp. The structures of these compounds were elucidated on the basis of extensive spectroscopic analysis. The cytotoxicity of some compounds against a panel of human cancer cell lines is also reported.

Lembehsterols A (1) and B (2), two novel sulfated sterols, were isolated from the marine sponge Petrosia strongylata. Both sterols showed inhibitory activity against thymidine phosphorylase, which is an enzyme related to angiogenesis in solid tumors. The structures of these sulfated sterols were established on the basis of chemical and physicochemical evidence.

Dideoxypetrosynol A, a polyacetylene from the marine sponge Petrosia sp., is known to exhibit significant selective cytotoxic activity against several human cancer cell lines. In the present study, we investigated further possible mechanisms by which dideoxypetrosynol A exerts its anti-proliferative action in cultured human leukemia U937 cells. Exposure of U937 cells to dideoxypetrosynol A resu...
متن کاملCharacterisation and antimicrobial activity of epibiotic bacteria from Petrosia ficiformis (Porifera, Demospongiae)
Numerous natural products from marine invertebrates show striking structural similarities to known metabolites of microbial origin, suggesting that microorganisms (bacteria, microalgae) are at least involved in their biosynthesis or are in fact the true sources of these respective metabolites. The viable epibiotic microbial community of the marine sponge Petrosia ficiformis was screened and cha...
