RESUMO
Sessile marine sponges provide an abundance of unique and diversified scaffolds. In particular, marine guanidine alkaloids display a very wide range of biological applications. A large number of cyclic guanidine alkaloids, including crambines, crambescins, crambescidins, batzelladines or netamins have been isolated from Poecilosclerida marine sponges. In this review, we will explore the chemodiversity of tri- and pentacyclic guanidine alkaloids. NMR and MS data tools will also be provided, and an overview of the wide range of bioactivities of crambescidins and batzelladines derivatives will be given.

Six new steroidal saponins, pandarosides K-M (1-3) and their methyl esters (4-6), were isolated as minor components, after a careful chemical reinvestigation of the Caribbean sponge Pandaros acanthifolium. Their structures were established on the basis of spectroscopic analyses and comparison with the data obtained from previous metabolites of this family. All new compounds showed moderate to weak activity against four parasitic protozoa. Additionally, these compounds and previously reported pandarosides and acanthifoliosides were tested on three human tumour cell lines, and their haemolytic and liposome permeabilizing activity were assessed. Two pandarosides exhibited moderate to strong cytotoxic effect, while three acanthifoliosides showed strong haemolytic activity.

Chemical investigation of the Mediterranean sponge Sarcotragus spinosulus led to the isolation of a new hydroxylated nonaprenylhydroquinone, along with two known metabolites, hepta- and octaprenylhydroquinones. The structure of the new metabolite was assigned by extensive 1D and 2D NMR analyses and MS studies. The antileukemic effect of the three compounds towards the chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) cells line K562 was also evaluated.

The chemical composition of the Caribbean sponge Pandaros acanthifolium was reinvestigated and led to the isolation of 12 new steroidal glycosides, namely, pandarosides E-J (1-6) and their methyl esters (7-12). Their structures were determined on the basis of extensive spectroscopic analyses, including two-dimensional NMR and HRESIMS data. Like the previously isolated pandarosides A-D (13-16), the new compounds 1-12 share an unusual oxidized D-ring and a cis C/D ring junction. The absolute configurations of the aglycones were assigned by interpretation of CD spectra, whereas the absolute configurations of the monosaccharide units were determined by chiral GC analyses of the acid methanolysates. The majority of the metabolites showed in vitro activity against three or four parasitic protozoa. Particularly active were the compounds 3 (pandaroside G) and its methyl ester (9), which potently inhibited the growth of Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense (IC(50) values 0.78 and 0.038 microM, respectively) and Leishmania donovani (IC(50)'s 1.3 and 0.051 microM, respectively).

Five new hydantoin alkaloids, named parazoanthines A-E (1-5), were isolated as the major constituents of the Mediterranean sea anemone Parazoanthus axinellae. Their structural elucidation was achieved through NMR spectroscopic and mass spectrometric analyses. The absolute configuration of the chiral compounds 1 and 4 was determined by comparison between experimental and TDDFT-calculated CD spectra. The configuration of the trisubstituted double bond of 2, 3, and 5 was deduced from the (3)J(H6-C4) coupling constant value. This family of alkaloids represents the first example of natural 3,5-disubstituted hydantoins that do not exhibit a methyl at N-3. All compounds were tested for their natural toxicity (Microtox assay), and parazoanthine C (3) exhibited the highest natural toxicity.

Pandarosides A-D and their methyl esters (1-7) are all characterized by a rare 2-hydroxycyclopentenone D-ring with a 14beta configuration. The absolute configuration of the aglycon part of pandaroside A (1) was assigned by comparison between experimental and TDDFT calculated circular dichroism spectra on the more stable conformer.

Caulerpenyne (CYN) contents was measured in two Chlorophyceae algae, Caulerpa taxifolia and Caulerpa racemosa, between July 1999 and July 2000. Sampling was performed at three stations exhibiting increasing levels of competition with the seagrass Posidonia oceanica. Significant differences were observed as a function of the Caulerpa species, the season, and the level of competition. CYN concentrations were always greater in C. taxifolia, regardless of either season or level of competition (35-80 times greater, according to the season). For a given species, maximum concentrations were recorded in autumn (September/November) and minimum values occurred in spring (April/May). CYN contents decreased with increasing level of competition, whereas frond length increased over this same gradient. It would appear that when the algae are in competition with P oceanica, Caulerpa is more inclined to accelerate vegetative growth (competition for light) than to produce secondary metabolites.
