Cytotoxic furanoditerpenes from the sponge Spongia tubulifera collected in the Mexican Caribbean
(MDPI, 2019-07-16)
[Abstract] Two new spongian furanoditerpenes, 3β-hydroxyspongia-13(16),14-dien-2-one (1) and 19-dehydroxy-spongian diterpene 17 (2), along with five known terpenes, the spongian furanoditerpenes 9-nor-3-hydroxyspongia-3, ...
Absolute Configuration by Vibrational Circular Dichroism of Anti-inflammatory Macrolide Briarane Diterpenoids From the Gorgonian Briareum Asbestinum
(Springer Nature, 2021-01-12)
[Abstract] The four new briarane diterpenoids 2-butyryloxybriarane B-3 (2), 9-acetylbriarenolide S (3), briarenolide W (4), and 12-isobriarenolide P (5), along with briarane B-3 (1) and the five known diterpenes 6–10 were ...
Relative Configuration of Micrograms of Natural Compounds Using Proton Residual Chemical Shift Anisotropy
(Nature, 2020-09-01)
[Abstract] 3D molecular structure determination is a challenge for organic compounds or natural products available in minute amounts. Proton/proton and proton/carbon correlations yield the constitution. J couplings and ...
In-Depth Analysis of the Role of the Acinetobactin Cluster in the Virulence of Acinetobacter baumannii
(Frontiers, 2021-10-05)
[Abstract] Acinetobacter baumannii is a multidrug-resistant pathogen that represents a serious threat to global health. A. baumannii possesses a wide range of virulence factors that contribute to the bacterial pathogenicity. ...
In Vitro and In Vivo Assessment of the Efficacy of Bromoageliferin, an Alkaloid Isolated from the Sponge Agelas dilatata, against Pseudomonas aeruginosa
(MDPI, 2020-06-23)
[Abstract] The pyrrole-imidazoles, a group of alkaloids commonly found in marine sponges belonging to the genus Agelas, display a wide range of biological activities. Herein, we report the first chemical study of the ...
Synthesis of Acetylhomoagmatine
(Molecular Diversity Preservation International, 2006)
The first total synthesis of acetylhomoagmatine, a natural product isolated form the methanolic extracts from the sponge Cliona celata, is performed in four steps in a very high yield.
Enigmazole C: A Cytotoxic Macrocyclic Lactone and Its Ring-Opened Derivatives from a New Species of Homophymia Sponge
(American Chemical Society, 2022-03-02)
[Abstract] A new macrolide, enigmazole C (1), and two additional analogues, enigmazoles E (2) and D (3), were obtained from a new species of the Homophymia genus as part of an ongoing discovery program at PharmaMar to study ...
Connection of Isolated Stereoclusters by Combining 13C-RCSA, RDC, and J-Based Configurational Analyses and Structural Revision of a Tetraprenyltoluquinol Chromane Meroterpenoid from Sargassum muticum
(MDPI, 2022)
[Abstract] The seaweed Sargassum muticum, collected on the southern coast of Galicia, yielded a tetraprenyltoluquinol chromane meroditerpene compound known as 1b, whose structure is revised. The relative configuration of ...
Marine Natural Products from the Yucatan Peninsula
(MDPI AG, 2020-01-16)
[Abstract] Mexico is one of the three areas of the world with the greatest terrestrial and cultural biological diversity. The diversity of Mexican medicinal flora has been studied for a long time and several bioactive ...
Multistage Detection of Tetrodotoxin Traces in Diodon hystrix Collected in El Salvador
(MDPI, 2023-06-25)
[Abstract] This study describes a multistage methodology to detect minute amounts of tetrodotoxin in fishes, a plan that may be broadened to include other marine organisms. This methodology was applied to porcupinefish ...
