Azaspiracid-2 was isolated from a marine sponge Echinoclathria sp. collected off Amami-Oshima as the predominant cytotoxic constituent. A combination of HPLC using ODS, GS320, and Phenylhexyl stationary phases permitted the purification without using acid or inorganic additives in the mobile phase. Azaspiracid-2 exhibited potent cytotoxicity against P388 cells with an IC 50 value of 0.72ng/mL...
A very potent cell-bursting principle was isolated from the extract of the zoanthid Palythoa aff. margaritae. The compound was identified as palytoxin by comparing the spectral data and HPLC profile with those of an authentic sample.
The effects of discodermin A (DC-A), a novel marine bioactive peptide extracted from sea sponge Discodermia kiiensis, on the vascular smooth muscle cells and tissues were examined. Analysis with a confocal laser microscope showed that DC-A (0.1-30 μM) permeabilized the plasma membrane of A10 cells to the non-permeable fluorescent agents, ethidium homodimer-1 (MW = 857) and calcein (MW = 623), in a...
