Many soft-bodied sessile marine invertebrates such as sponges and soft corals defend themselves against fouling directly through the production of antifouling compounds, or indirectly through regulating the epibiotic microbes that affect larval settlement. In this study, 10beta-formamidokalihinol-A and kalihinol A were isolated and purified from the marine sponge Acanthella cavernosa (Dendy). The results indicated that both compounds inhibited the growth of bacteria isolated from the natural environment whereas kalihinol A suppressed larval settlement of a major fouling polychaete, Hydroides elegans with an EC50 of 0.5 microg ml(-1). Kalihinol A was incorporated in Phytagel that was exposed to the bacterial consortia in natural seawater for biofilm formation. Biofilms that developed on the Phytagel surfaces were analysed for bacterial abundance and bacterial species composition using a DNA fingerprinting technique, terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism (T-RFLP). The results showed that kalihinol A only slightly reduced bacterial abundance (t-test, p = 0.0497), but modified the bacterial species composition of the biofilms. Inhibition of H. elegans larval settlement was observed when biofilms developed under the influence of kalihinol A were exposed to larvae, suggesting that compounds like kalihinol A from the sponge A. cavernosa may change bacterial community composition on the sponge surface, which in turn, modulates larval settlement of fouling organisms. 相似文献

An examination of the Australian sponge Phakellia aruensis led to the isolation and identification of sterols with six different nuclei. Eight new sterols were isolated which included three delta 15-A-nor sterols, three delta 7-A-nor sterols, and two saturated A-nor sterols. Their structures were established through mass spectrometry and 1H-NMR spectral studies. 相似文献

The investigation of the Vietnamese marine sponge Spongia sp. led to the isolation of three new sesquiterpene phenols, langconols A–C (1–3), and one new sesquiterpene hydroxyquinone, langcoquinone C (4), together with two known meroterpenoids (5 and 6). Their structures were determined on the basis of spectroscopic analyses and comparisons with published data. Furthermore, the antibacterial assays of the isolates 1–6 suggested that 4 and 6 had significant antibacterial activities against Bacillus subtilis and Staphylococcus aureus, with MICs ranging from 6.25 to 25.0 µM, while 1 and 3 possessed significant antibacterial activities against B. subtilis with MICs of 12.5 and 25.0 µM, respectively. In contrast, cytotoxic assays of the isolated compounds 1–6, as well as compounds 7–15 previously isolated from this sponge, indicated that 1 and the previously reported anti-B. subtilis and anti-S. aureus sesquiterpene phenol 9 lacked cytotoxic activities against three human cancer cell lines (A549, lung cancer; MCF7, breast cancer; HeLa, cervix cancer) and a human normal cell line (WI-38 fibroblast). 相似文献

Phylogenetic relationship and antifouling activity of bacterial epiphytes from the marine alga Ulva lactuca 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
It is widely accepted that bacterial epiphytes can inhibit the colonization of surfaces by common fouling organisms. However, little information is available regarding the diversity and properties of these antifouling bacteria. This study assessed the antifouling traits of five epiphytes of the common green alga, Ulva lactuca . All isolates were capable of preventing the settlement of invertebrate larvae and germination of algal spores. Three of the isolates also inhibited the growth of a variety of bacteria and fungi. Their phylogenetic positions were determined by 16S ribosomal subunit DNA sequencing. All isolates showed a close affiliation with the genus Pseudoalteromonas and, in particular, with the species P. tunicata . Strains of this bacterial species also display a variety of antifouling activities, suggesting that antifouling ability may be an important trait for members of this genus to be highly successful colonizers of animate surfaces and for such species to protect their host against fouling. 相似文献

Chemical investigation of polar lipids from the marine eustigmatophyte microalga Nannochloropsis granulata led to the isolation of six betaine lipid diacylglyceryltrimethylhomoserine (DGTS), namely, (2S)-1,2-bis-O-eicosapentaenoylglyceryl-3-O-4′-(N,N,N-trimethyl)-homoserine (1), (2S)-1-O-eicosapentaenoyl-2-O-arachidonoylglyceryl-3-O-4′-(N,N,N-trimethyl)-homoserine (2), (2S)-1-O-eicosapentaenoyl-2-O-myristoylglyceryl-3-O-4′-(N,N,N-trimethyl)-homoserine (3), (2S)-1-O-eicosapentaenoyl-2-O-palmitoylglyceryl-3-O-4′-(N,N,N-trimethyl)-homoserine (4), (2S)-1-O-eicosapentaenoyl-2-O-palmitoleoylglyceryl-3-O-4′-(N,N,N-trimethyl)-homoserine (5), and (2S)-1-O-eicosapentaenoyl-2-O-linoleoylglyceryl-3-O-4′-(N,N,N-trimethyl)-homoserine (6). Structures of the isolated DGTSs were elucidated based on both spectroscopic technique and degradation methods. This is the first report of isolation of 1 in pure state, and 2–6 are all new compounds. The isolated betaine lipids showed dose-dependent nitric oxide (NO) inhibitory activity against lipopolysaccharide-induced nitric oxide production in RAW264.7 macrophage cells. Further study suggested that these betaine lipids (1–6) inhibit NO production in RAW264.7 macrophage cells through downregulation of inducible nitric oxide synthase expression, indicating the possible use as an anti-inflammatory agent. This is the first report of DGTS with anti-inflammatory activity. 相似文献

Non-toxic antifouling activity of polymeric 3-alkylpyridinium salts from the Mediterranean sponge Reniera sarai (Pulitzer-Finali) 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The antifouling activity and toxicity of polymeric 3-alkylpyridinium salts (poly-APS) isolated from the Mediterranean sponge Reniera sarai were studied. The activity of these natural products was compared to that of zinc and copper complexes of pyrithione, two non-persistent booster biocides successfully used in current antifouling coatings. Larvae of Balanus amphitrite (cyprids and nauplii) were used to monitor settlement inhibition and the extent to which inhibition was due to toxicity. The microalga Tetraselmis suecica and larvae of the mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis were used in toxicity bioassays. Compared to the booster biocides, poly-APS were less effective at inhibiting cyprid settlement, but their effects were non toxic and reversible, with very low toxicity against the organisms used in the toxicity bioassays. Although encouraging, these results are not enough to warrant the use of poly-APS as a potential commercial antifoulant. They however justify possible future efforts to chemically synthesize poly-APS analogues for further tests. 相似文献

The aim of this study is to determine the 5alpha-reductase inhibitory activity of several new steroidal compounds PR-01-PR-07 by measuring the conversion of [3H]T to[3H]DHT in Penicillium crustosum broths. These compounds were obtained from marine soft corals collected on the coasts of Andaman and Nicobar at Hori, Natkal and Kalipur (Diglipur) Islands and identified as Sinularia grandilobata Verseveldt, Sinularia crassa Tixier- Durivault, Sinularia gravis Tixier- Durivault, Sinularia sp., Lobophytum sp., Lobophytum crassum and Cladiella sp. PR-01-PR-04 significantly inhibited the conversion of [3H]T to [3H]DHT (P < 0.05) whereas PR-05 and PR-06 did not show an appreciable difference (P > 0.05) in this model. On the other hand PR-07 stimulated (P < 0.05) the enzymatic reaction. 相似文献

The histones isolated from the siliceous sponge Geodia cydonium have been separated using two electrophoretic techniques. A comparison of their mobilities with those of calf thymus and rat liver show that some Geodia histone species (H3, H1 and H1(0) exhibit electrophoretic variance. The results show, that as in other eukaryotic systems the sponge chromatin contains the core histones (H2A, H2B, H3 and H4) and the linker histone (H1). ADP-ribosylation of Geodia histones and separation of the individual histones by electrophoresis resulted in four histones being radiolabeled. Digestion of Geodia chromatin with endogenous endonuclease is shown to result in the formation of nucleosome particles containing approximately 200 base pairs of DNA. A major product of endogenous endonuclease digestion is a relatively stable 110 base pair intermediate. Incubation of chromatin with DNase II and separation of the products under denaturing conditions reveals 20 bands migrating at 10 base intervals. 相似文献

In this field investigation the two cyclopeptides, isolated from the marine sponge Geodia barretti Bowerbank (Geodiidae, Astrophorida), are shown to be very efficient in preventing recruitment of the barnacle Balanus improvisus (Cirripedia, Crustacea) and the blue mussel Mytilis edulis (Protobranchia, Lamellibranchia) when included in different marine paints. These brominated cyclopeptides, named barettin and 8,9-dihydrobarettin were incorporated in different non-toxic coatings. The substances were used in the concentrations 0.1 and 0.01% in all treatments. The most efficient paint was a SPC polymer. This paint, in combination with barettin and 8,9-dihydrobarettin, reduced the recruitment of B. improvisus by 89% (barettin, 0.1%) and by 67% (8,9-dihydrobarettin, 0.1%) as compared to control panels. For M. edulis, the reduction of recruitment was 81% with barettin (0.1%) and 72% with 8,9-dihydrobarettin (0.1%) included in the SPC paint. This indicates that the two compounds from G. barretti could provide non-toxic alternatives as additives in antifouling paints, since the heavy metal-based marine paints are to be replaced. 相似文献

Dragmacidon reticulatum is a marine sponge of wide occurrence in the Eastern and Western Atlantic. Little is known about D. reticulatum fungal diversity. Filamentous fungi recovered from D. reticulatum were assessed in the present study using a polyphasic taxonomic approach, including classical morphology, molecular biology and MALDI-TOF ICMS. Ninety-eight fungal strains were isolated from two D. reticulatum samples by using six different culture media, which were identified up to the genus level. Sixty-four distinct fungal ribotypes were obtained, distributed among twenty-four different genera belonging to the Ascomycota and Zygomycota. Representatives of Penicillium and Trichoderma were the most diverse and abundant fungi isolated. Amongst Penicillium spp. three isolates belonged to the same ribotype can be considered as a putative new species. Data derived from the present study highlight the importance of using a polyphasic approach to get an accurate identification in order to structure a reliable culture collection. 相似文献

Two new sesquiterpene aminoquinones, langcoquinones A (1) and B (2), together with seven known meroterpenoids (39), were isolated from the marine sponge Spongia sp. collected in Vietnam. Their structures were determined on the basis of spectroscopic analyses and comparisons with published data. The antibacterial activities of the isolated compounds (19) were investigated against four bacterial strains. Among these, the new sesquiterpene aminoquinones (1 and 2) and the known related compounds (3, 5, 6, 8, and 9) exhibited significant antibacterial activities against Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus subtilis, with MICs ranging from 6.25 to 12.5 μM. 相似文献

A protease from the marine sponge Geodia cydonium was purified from an aqueous extract by gel filtration and anion-exchange chromatography. A 200-kDa proteolytically active band was obtained when the enzyme was analyzed in gelatin-copolymerized zymograms. The enzyme was also able to degrade casein, bovine collagen, and the synthetic substrate alpha-N-benzoyl-D-arginine p-nitroanilide (BAPNA). Optimal conditions for proteolytic activity were achieved in the presence of 10 mM CaCl2 and within the pH range 7.0 to 8.5. The protease showed an extraordinary heat resistance. The enzyme activity was inhibited by phenylmethylsulphonyl fluoride (PMSF) and N-tosyl-lysine chloromethyl ketone (TLCK), suggesting that the enzyme belongs to the group of serine-type proteases. We propose that the protease is involved in sponge collagen catabolism. 相似文献

The budding process of the tetillid sponge Cinachyrella cavernosa was studied for one year in the low intertidal zone near Mhapan (15°55′27.48″N, 73°33′29.89″E), on the central west coast of India. The sponges showed the highest budding frequency when the average water temperature of intertidal rock pools was 32.4±0.23°C (February–March), followed by a significant decrease in budding frequency at 28.2±0.12°C (April–July), and no budding at ≤25.9±0.12°C (August–November). Stepwise multiple regression analysis of physico‐chemical factors revealed temperature as the most prominent factor regulating the intensity of budding. Based on size and morphology, three stages of sponge buds were defined. The production of buds was found to be asynchronous, as adult sponges possessed buds of all three stages. Differences among these stages were examined at ultrastructural (in terms of spicules) and molecular (in terms of RNA/DNA) levels. Stage I (<0.5 mm dia‐meter) buds showed a complete absence of microscleres (sigmaspires), whereas stage II (0.5–1 mm) and stage III (>1 mm) buds contained all spicules characteristic of the adult sponge. There was a significant increase in RNA/DNA ratio from stage I to III, suggestive of a progressive increase in physiological activity during the developmental process. Additionally, we studied post‐settlement bud growth under field and laboratory conditions. Newly settled buds displayed a lower average‐specific growth rate in the field, owing to variability in environmental conditions, but more rapid growth under controlled conditions in the laboratory. This study highlights the role of abiotic factors in regulating the budding process and stresses the ecological significance of budding in maintaining natural sponge populations. Our data suggest that an increased frequency of budding under stressful conditions, such as high temperature, is an advantageous adaptation for these sponges. Buds showed rapid development, as no metamorphosis is involved, and retained the genotype of the parents, yielding high reproductive outputs and survival rates. 相似文献

The lectin from the marine sponge Axinella corrugata (ACL-I) was purified by affinity chromatography on rabbit erythrocytic stroma incorporated into a polyacrylamide gel followed by gel filtration on Ultrogel AcA 44 column. Purified ACL-I is a hexameric glycoprotein with a Mr of 82.3 kDa estimated by SDS-PAGE and 78.5 kDa by FPLC on Superose 12 HR column. The pI of lectin is 6.3 and ACL-I is constituted of 13.9 kDa similar subunits some of them linked by disulphide bridges. This lectin agglutinates native rabbit, goat and dog erythrocytes and in less extent human erythrocytes. The hemagglutinating activity is independent of Ca(2+), Mg(2+) and Mn(2+), but it is strongly inhibited by carbohydrates containing N-acetyl groups. ACL-I is stable up to 70 degrees C for 30 min, with optimum pH between 7 and 8, and it is also resistant to enzymatic proteolysis in vitro. In the presence of reducing or denaturant agents, the lectin activity decreases. ACL-I displays chemotactic effect on rat neutrophil in vitro which is inhibited by N-acetyl-d-glucosamine. 相似文献

(-)-10-epi-Axisonitrile-3, a spirocyclic sesquiterpene isocyanide obtained from the marine sponge Geodia exigua, immobilized sperm of sea urchin and starfish to block fertilization at the minimum effective concentration of 0.4 microg/ml. On the other hand, fertilized eggs developed normally to the gastrula stage in the presence of a 250-times higher concentration of the isocyanide. Analysis by (31)P NMR revealed an accumulation of phosphocreatine and a depletion of inorganic phosphate in the isocyanide-treated sperm, suggesting that (-)-10-epi-axisonitrile-3 inhibited the phosphocreatine shuttle participating in the high-energy phosphate metabolism, thereby immobilizing sperm to block fertilization. No analogs of (-)-10-epi-axisonitrile-3 containing different functionalities or isocyanides with different carbon skeleton exhibited such activity. 相似文献

A novel nucleosidase enzymatic activity was discovered in the marine sponge Axinella polypoides. This enzyme, designated as ATP N-glycosidase, converts adenosine-5'-triphosphate into adenine and ribose-5-triphosphate. The crude extract of A. polypoides was capable of hydrolysing 25 micro mol ATP.min-1 per g wet weight of sponge. The catalytic activity of a sponge crude extract per mg total protein is comparable with specific activities of purified plant adenosine and bacterial AMP nucleosidases. The preferred substrate for the novel enzyme is ATP but any compound containing adenosine-5'-diphosphoryl fragment is also cleaved. The biochemical properties (Km, Kip, environmental requirements) of ATP N-glycosidase show similarities with previously described adenine-specific nucleosidases; however, the pattern of its biochemical characteristics does not match with that of any of those enzymes. 相似文献

- 1.1. Propanol extracts of the sponge Tethya aurantia (Demospongiae) were fractionated, guided by bioassay, for a component with negative chronotropic and inotropic activity on isolated guinea pig atria.
- 2.2. The bioactive component was found to be adenosine. These extracts also contained allantoin.
- 3.3. This intermediate in the sequence of degradation of purines was unexpected, since it has been reported only once before to occur in marine invertebrate animals.

A cytotoxic peptide, polytheonamide B (pTB), from marine sponge was examined for cytotoxic spectrum and specific activity to mammalian cells was demonstrated. pTB is composed of alternative D- and L-amino acid residues throughout the 48-mer peptide. This suggests the formation of a β-helix similar to gramicidin channels. Planar bilayer experiments revealed that pTB forms monovalent cation-selective channels, being compatible with the inner pore diameter of ∼4 Å for a β-helical structure. pTB penetrated vectorially into the membrane, formed a channel by means of a single molecule, and remained in the membrane. These functional properties may account for specific cytotoxic activity. 相似文献

Twelve stanols possessing the rare 5 beta-dihydro nucleus have been isolated from the marine sponge Petrosia ficiformis. These stanols have not previously been encountered in any samples of P. ficiformis which we have examined and appear to be the result of bacterial metabolism of the endogenous sponge sterols. 相似文献
