New cytotoxic xenia diterpenoids from the Formosan soft coral Xenia umbellata.
Seven new cytotoxic xenicane-type diterpenoids, 9-deoxyxeniloide-E (1), 9-deoxy-7,8-epoxyxeniloide-E (2), xeniolide-G (3), 9-deoxyxenialactol-C (4), xenibecin (5), xeniolide-H (6), and xenitacin (7), were isolated from the methylene chloride solubles of the Formosan soft coral Xenia umbellata. The structures were elucidated by 1D and 2D NMR spectral analysis, and their cytotoxicity against sele...
متن کاملInorganic nutrient availability affects organic matter fluxes and metabolic activity in the soft coral genus Xenia.
The release of organic matter (OM) by scleractinian corals represents a key physiological process that importantly contributes to coral reef ecosystem functioning, and is affected by inorganic nutrient availability. Although OM fluxes have been studied for several dominant reef taxa, no information is available for soft corals, one of the major benthic groups in tropical reef environments. Thus...
متن کاملResponses of the soft coral Xenia elongata following acute exposure to a chemical dispersant
Limited toxicology data are available regarding oil dispersant exposure to coral species. Corexit® EC9500A (Corexit) is a commonly applied dispersant most well known for its use after the Deepwater Horizon spill in April, 2010. There is limited evidence that Corexit can cause a bleaching response in corals. The aims of the study were: (1) to determine the extent of bleaching after acute 24 h an...
متن کاملMode of Action of Diterpene and Characterization of Related Metabolites from the Soft Coral, Xenia elongata
Chemical and biological investigation of the cultured marine soft coral Xenia elongata led to the isolation of two new diterpenes (2, 3). Their structures were elucidated using a combination of NMR and mass spectrometry. Biological evaluations and assessments were determined using the specific apoptosis induction assay based on genetically engineered mammalian cell line D3 deficient in Bak and ...
متن کاملInduction of apoptosis by diterpenes from the soft coral Xenia elongata.
Four new diterpenes ( 1- 4) were isolated from the soft coral Xenia elongata using a novel cell-based screen for apoptosis-inducing, potential anticancer compounds. The molecular structures of the diterpenes were determined using a combination of NMR and mass spectrometry. The bioactivities were confirmed using a specific apoptosis induction assay based on genetically engineered mammalian lines...
