This review highlights recent findings of our group on bioactive marine natural products isolated from marine sponges and marine derived fungi. The activated chemical defence of the Mediterranean sponge Aplysina aerophoba is introduced as an example of a dynamic response of marine sponges to wounding. Following tissue disrupture preformed brominated isoxazoline alkaloids are enzymatically cleaved...

The first one was named Aplysina aerophoba (formerly Verongia aerophoba) due to the change of its bright yellow pigment uranidine to dark blue when exposed to air. The second one was named Aplysina cavernicola (formerly Verongia cavernicola) due...
