چکیده
The furanosesterterpene variabilin was isolated from the sponge Sarcotragus. From a chemical point of view, the family Irciniidae has been the source of furanosesterterpenes, and especially variabilin is an important chemotaxonomic marker for the family Irciniidae.

CO I Barcoding Reveals New Clades and Radiation Patterns of Indo-Pacific Sponges of the Family Irciniidae (Demospongiae: Dictyoceratida)
BACKGROUND DNA barcoding is a promising tool to facilitate a rapid and unambiguous identification of sponge species. Demosponges of the order Dictyoceratida are particularly challenging to identify, but are of ecological as well as biochemical importance. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Here we apply DNA barcoding with the standard CO1-barcoding marker on selected Indo-Pacific specimens of two...

متن کاملMicrobial Communities and Bioactive Compounds in Marine Sponges of the Family Irciniidae—A Review
Marine sponges harbour complex microbial communities of ecological and biotechnological importance. Here, we propose the application of the widespread sponge family Irciniidae as an appropriate model in microbiology and biochemistry research. Half a gram of one Irciniidae specimen hosts hundreds of bacterial species-the vast majority of which are difficult to cultivate-and dozens of fungal and ...
متن کاملVariabilin: a dual inhibitor of human secretory and cytosolic phospholipase A2 with anti-inflammatory activity.
The marine product variabilin was identified as a novel inhibitor of phospholipase A2 (PLA2), which exhibited IC50 values of 6.9 microM and 7.9 microM for human synovial secretory PLA2 and U937 cells cytosolic PLA2 activities, respectively. This compound was less potent on bee venom or zymosan-injected rat air pouch enzymes and failed to affect Naja naja venom PLA2. The production of leukotrien...
