ABSTRACT
A new pentacyclic guanidine alkaloid, monanchoxymycalin C (1) was isolated from a new collection of marine sponge Monanchora pulchra along with the known monanchoxymycalin A (2). The structure of 1 was elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic data. Monanchoxymycalin C exhibits cytotoxic activity against human cancer HeLa cells at low micromolar concentrations, induces apoptosis-related death of malignant cells and inhibits cancer cell colony formation. In addition, synergistic and additive effects have been observed in combination with cisplatin.
