Said AAE, Mahmoud BK, Helmy AM, Mohamed NM, Attia EZ, Samy MN, Abdelmohsen UR, Fouad MA. Niosomes as promising approach for enhancing the cytotoxicity of Hemimycale sp. total crude extract supported with in-silico studies. Sci Rep 2024; 14:2546. [PMID: 38291122 PMCID: PMC10827731 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-52918-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/19/2023] [Accepted: 01/25/2024] [Indexed: 02/01/2024] Open
Abstract
The crude extract of Hemimycale sp. marine sponge was evaluated as a cytotoxic drug against different cell lines; whereas it exhibited promising selective activity toward the breast cancer cell line only with IC50 value 199.6 ± 0.00512 µg/ml. Moreover, its cytotoxic activity against the breast cancer cell line was reevaluated upon forming total extract-loaded niosomes. This revealed an IC50 value of 44.35 ± 0.011128 µg/ml, indicating the potential contribution of niosomes in boosting cell penetration and activity as a result. Owing to highlight the bioactive constituents responsible for the cytotoxic activity, metabolomics profiling of Hemimycale sp. was performed using liquid chromatography coupled with high-resolution electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (LC-HR-ESI-MS) revealing tentative identification of phytoconstituents clusters like as, diterpenes, sesterterpenes and sterols. Additionally, the cytotoxic activity of the crude extract was explained on the molecular level, whereas the dereplicated compounds were evaluated in silico against the Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor tyrosine kinase (EGFR). The sesterterpenoid derivatives phorbaketal A acetate (12) and secoepoxy ansellone A (13) together with mycalol-522 (17) showed the best binding energy.

Discovery of lead natural products for developing pan-SARS-CoV-2 therapeutics. Antiviral Res 2023; 209:105484. [PMID: 36503013 PMCID: PMC9729583 DOI: 10.1016/j.antiviral.2022.105484] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/18/2022] [Revised: 11/26/2022] [Accepted: 12/07/2022] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic, caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), remains a global public health crisis. The reduced efficacy of therapeutic monoclonal antibodies against emerging SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern (VOCs), such as omicron BA.5 subvariants, has underlined the need to explore a novel spectrum of antivirals that are effective against existing and evolving SARS-CoV-2 VOCs. To address the need for novel therapeutic options, we applied cell-based high-content screening to a library of natural products (NPs) obtained from plants, fungi, bacteria, and marine sponges, which represent a considerable diversity of chemical scaffolds. The antiviral effect of 373 NPs was evaluated using the mNeonGreen (mNG) reporter SARS-CoV-2 virus in a lung epithelial cell line (Calu-3). The screening identified 26 NPs with half-maximal effective concentrations (EC50) below 50 μM against mNG-SARS-CoV-2; 16 of these had EC50 values below 10 μM and three NPs (holyrine A, alotaketal C, and bafilomycin D) had EC50 values in the nanomolar range. We demonstrated the pan-SARS-CoV-2 activity of these three lead antivirals against SARS-CoV-2 highly transmissible Omicron subvariants (BA.5, BA.2 and BA.1) and highly pathogenic Delta VOCs in human Calu-3 lung cells. Notably, holyrine A, alotaketal C, and bafilomycin D, are potent nanomolar inhibitors of SARS-CoV-2 Omicron subvariants BA.5 and BA.2. The pan-SARS-CoV-2 activity of alotaketal C [protein kinase C (PKC) activator] and bafilomycin D (V-ATPase inhibitor) suggest that these two NPs are acting as host-directed antivirals (HDAs). Future research should explore whether PKC regulation impacts human susceptibility to and the severity of SARS-CoV-2 infection, and it should confirm the important role of human V-ATPase in the VOC lifecycle. Interestingly, we observed a synergistic action of bafilomycin D and N-0385 (a highly potent inhibitor of human TMPRSS2 protease) against Omicron subvariant BA.2 in human Calu-3 lung cells, which suggests that these two highly potent HDAs are targeting two different mechanisms of SARS-CoV-2 entry. Overall, our study provides insight into the potential of NPs with highly diverse chemical structures as valuable inspirational starting points for developing pan-SARS-CoV-2 therapeutics and for unravelling potential host factors and pathways regulating SARS-CoV-2 VOC infection including emerging omicron BA.5 subvariants.

Abstract
Marine sponges are productive sources of bioactive secondary metabolites with over 200 new compounds isolated each year, contributing 23% of approved marine drugs so far. This review describes statistical research, structural diversity, and pharmacological activity of sponge derived new natural products from 2009 to 2018. Approximately 2762 new metabolites have been reported from 180 genera of sponges this decade, of which the main structural types are alkaloids and terpenoids, accounting for 50% of the total. More than half of new molecules showed biological activities including cytotoxic, antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, enzyme inhibition, and antimalarial activities. As summarized in this review, macrolides and peptides had higher proportions of new bioactive compounds in new compounds than other chemical classes. Every chemical class displayed cytotoxicity as the dominant activity. Alkaloids were the major contributors to antibacterial, antifungal, and antioxidant activities while steroids were primarily responsible for pest resistance activity. Alkaloids, terpenoids, and steroids displayed the most diverse biological activities. The statistic research of new compounds by published year, chemical class, sponge taxonomy, and biological activity are presented. Structural novelty and significant bioactivities of some representative compounds are highlighted. Marine sponges are rich sources of novel bioactive compounds and serve as animal hosts for microorganisms, highlighting the undisputed potential of sponges in the marine drugs research and development.

Abstract
Five new minor sesterterpenoids, ansellones H (4), I (5), J (6), and K (7) and phorone C (8), have been isolated from a Phorbas sp. marine sponge collected in British Columbia. Their structures have been elucidated by detailed analysis of NMR and MS data. Ansellone J (6) and phorone C (8) are potent in vitro HIV-1 latency reversal agents that are more potent than the reference compound and control protein kinase C activator prostratin (3). The most potent Phorbas sesterterpenoid, ansellone J (6), was evaluated for HIV latency reversal in a primary cell context using CD4+ T cells obtained directly from four combination antiretroviral therapy-suppressed donors with HIV. To a first approximation, ansellone J (6) induced HIV latency reversal at levels similar to prostratin (3) ex vivo, but at a 10-fold lower concentration.

Abstract
Porifera, commonly referred to as marine sponges, are acknowledged as major producers of marine natural products (MNPs). Sponges of the genus Phorbas have attracted much attention over the years. They are widespread in all continents, and several structurally unique compounds have been identified from this species. Terpenes, mainly sesterterpenoids, are the major secondary metabolites isolated from Phorbas species, even though several alkaloids and steroids have also been reported. Many of these compounds have presented interesting biological activities. Particularly, Phorbas sponges have been demonstrated to be a source of cytotoxic metabolites. In addition, MNPs exhibiting cytostatic, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory activities have been isolated and structurally characterized. This review provides an overview of almost 130 secondary metabolites from Phorbas sponges and their biological activities, and it covers the literature since the first study published in 1993 until November 2021, including approximately 60 records. The synthetic routes to the most interesting compounds are briefly outlined.

Abstract
Marine sponges are the most prolific marine sources for discovery of novel bioactive compounds. Sponge secondary metabolites are sought-after for their potential in pharmaceutical applications, and in the past, they were also used as taxonomic markers alongside the difficult and homoplasy-prone sponge morphology for species delineation (chemotaxonomy). The understanding of phylogenetic distribution and distinctiveness of metabolites to sponge lineages is pivotal to reveal pathways and evolution of compound production in sponges. This benefits the discovery rate and yield of bioprospecting for novel marine natural products by identifying lineages with high potential of being new sources of valuable sponge compounds. In this review, we summarize the current biochemical data on sponges and compare the metabolite distribution against a sponge phylogeny. We assess compound specificity to lineages, potential convergences, and suitability as diagnostic phylogenetic markers. Our study finds compound distribution corroborating current (molecular) phylogenetic hypotheses, which include yet unaccepted polyphyly of several demosponge orders and families. Likewise, several compounds and compound groups display a high degree of lineage specificity, which suggests homologous biosynthetic pathways among their taxa, which identifies yet unstudied species of this lineage as promising bioprospecting targets.

Abstract
Natural products of marine origin exhibit extensive biological activities, and display a vital role in the exploration of new compounds for drug development. Marine sponges have been reported at the top with respect to the discovery of biologically active metabolites that have potential pharmaceutical applications. The family Hymedesmiidae belonging to the Demospongiae class includes ten accepted genera, of which four genera were explored for their bioactive metabolites, namely Phorbas, Hamigera, Hemimycale, and Kirkpatrickia. Genus Phorbas has received more attention due to the isolation of various classes of compounds with unique structures mainly diterpenes, alkaloids, sesterterpenes, and steroids that exhibited diverse biological activities including: antiviral, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory, whereas anticancer compounds predominated. This review focuses on the isolated secondary metabolites from family Hymedesmiidae with their biological potential and covers the literature from 1989 to 2020. Natural products of marine origin exhibit extensive biological activities, and display a vital role in the exploration of new compounds for drug development.![]()

Integrated analytical workflow for chromatographic profiling and metabolite annotation of a cytotoxic Phorbas amaranthus extract. J Chromatogr B Analyt Technol Biomed Life Sci 2021; 1174:122720.

Abstract
Phorbas is a widely studied genus of marine sponge and produce structurally rich cytotoxic metabolites. Still, only few studies have assessed metabolites present in Brazilian species. To circumvent redundancy, in this work, we applied and herein report the use of a scouting liquid chromatographic system associate to the design of experiment produced by the DryLab® software to obtain a fast and efficient chromatographic separation of the active hexane fraction, further enabling untargeted high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) data. To this end, a crude hydroalcoholic extract of the sponge Phorbas amaranthus collected in Brazilian coast was prepared and partitioned. The cytotoxicity of the crude extract and the fractions was evaluated using tumor cell culture models. Fragmentation pathways assembled from HRMS data allowed the annotation of 18 known Phorbas metabolites, while 17 metabolites were inferred based on Global Natural Product Social Molecular Networking (GNPS), matching with a further 29 metabolites annotated through molecular subnetwork. The workflow employed demonstrates that chromatographic method development can be accelerated by the use of automated scouting systems and DryLab®, which is useful for profiling natural product libraries, as well as data curation by molecular clusters and should be incorporated to the tools of natural product chemists.

Abstract
Covering: July 2012 to December 2019Over the last seven years, expanding research efforts focused on sesterterpenoids has led to the isolation, identification, and characterization of numerous structurally novel and biologically active sesterterpenoids. These newly reported sesterterpenoids provide diverse structures that often incorporate unprecedented ring systems and new carbon skeletons, as well as unusual functional group arrays. Biological activities of potential biomedical importance including suppression of cancer cell growth, inhibition of enzymatic activity, and modulation of receptor signaling, as well as ecologically important functions such as antimicrobial effects and deterrence of herbivorous insects have been associated with a variety of sesterterpenoids. There has also been a rapid growth in our knowledge of the genomics, enzymology, and specific pathways associated with sesterterpene biosynthesis. This has opened up new opportunities for future sesterterpene discovery and diversification through the expression of new cryptic metabolites and the engineered manipulation of associated biosynthetic machinery and processes. In this paper we reviewed 498 new sesterterpenoids, including their structures, source organisms, country of origin, relevant bioactivities, and biosynthesis.

Abstract
Covering: 2000 to 2019The discovery of new natural products that have some combination of unprecedented chemical structures, biological activities of therapeutic interest for urgent medical needs, and new molecular targets provides the fuel that sustains the vitality of natural products chemistry research. Unfortunately, finding these important new compounds is neither routine or trivial and a major challenge is finding effective discovery paradigms. This review presents examples that illustrate the effectiveness of a chemical genetics approach to marine natural product (MNP) discovery that intertwines compound discovery, molecular target identification, and phenotypic response/biological activity. The examples include MNPs that have complex unprecedented structures, new or understudied molecular targets, and potent biological activities of therapeutic interest. A variety of methods to identify molecular targets are also featured.

Abstract
The sponge is one of the oldest multicellular invertebrates in the world. Marine sponges represent one of the extant metazoans of 700–800 million years. They are classified in four major classes: Calcarea, Demospongiae, Hexactinellida, and Homoscleromorpha. Among them, three genera, namely, Haliclona, Petrosia, and Discodemia have been identified to be the richest source of biologically active compounds. So far, 15,000 species have been described, and among them, more than 6000 species are found in marine and freshwater systems throughout tropical, temperate, and polar regions. More than 5000 different compounds have been isolated and structurally characterized to date, contributing to about 30% of all marine natural products. The chemical diversity of sponge products is high with compounds classified as alkaloids, terpenoids, peptides, polyketides, steroids, and macrolides, which integrate a wide range of biological activities, including antibacterial, anticancer, antifungal, anti-HIV, anti-inflammatory, and antimalarial. There is an open debate whether all natural products isolated from sponges are produced by sponges or are in fact derived from microorganisms that are inhaled though filter-feeding or that live within the sponges. Apart from their origin and chemoecological functions, sponge-derived metabolites are also of considerable interest in drug development. Therefore, development of recombinant microorganisms engineered for efficient production of sponge-derived products is a promising strategy that deserves further attention in future investigations in order to address the limitations regarding sustainable supply of marine drugs.

Abstract
It is now well recognized that the normal cellular response in mammalian cells is critically regulated by the cyclic-AMP (cAMP) pathway through the appropriate balance of adenylyl cyclase (AC) and phosphodiesterase-4 (PDE4) activities. Dysfunctions in the cAMP pathway have major implications in various diseases like CNS disorders, inflammation and cardiac syndromes and, hence, the modulation of cAMP signalling through appropriate intervention of AC/PDE4 activities has emerged as a promising new drug discovery strategy of current interest. In this context, synthetic small molecules have had limited success so far and therefore parallel efforts on natural product leads have been actively pursued. The early promise of using the diterpene forskolin and its semi-synthetic analogs as AC activators has given way to new leads in the last decade from novel natural products like the marine sesterterpenoids alotaketals and ansellones and the 9,9'-diarylfluorenone cored selaginpulvilins, etc. and their synthesis has drawn much attention. This review captures these contemporary developments, particularly total synthesis campaigns and structure-guided analog design in the context of AC and PDE-4 modulating attributes and the scope for future possibilities.

Sesterterpenoid and Steroid Metabolites from a Deep-Water Alaska Sponge Inhibit Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling in Colon Cancer Cells. Mar Drugs 2018; 16:md16090297.

Abstract
The Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway is known to play critical roles in a wide range of cellular processes: cell proliferation, differentiation, migration and embryonic development. Importantly, dysregulation of this pathway is tightly associated with pathogenesis in most human cancers. Therefore, the Wnt/β-catenin pathway has emerged as a promising target in anticancer drug screening programs. In the present study, we have isolated three previously unreported metabolites from an undescribed sponge, a species of Monanchora (Order Poecilosclerida, Family Crambidae), closely related to the northeastern Pacific species Monanchora pulchra, collected from deep waters off the Aleutian Islands of Alaska. Through an assortment of NMR, MS, ECD, computational chemical shifts calculation, and DP4, chemical structures of these metabolites have been characterized as spirocyclic ring-containing sesterterpenoid (1) and cholestane-type steroidal analogues (2 and 3). These compounds exhibited the inhibition of β-catenin response transcription (CRT) through the promotion of β-catenin degradation, which was in part implicated in the antiproliferative activity against two CRT-positive colon cancer cell lines.

Abstract
While combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) has successfully converted HIV to a chronic but manageable infection in many parts of the world, HIV continues to persist within latent cellular reservoirs, which can become reactivated at any time to produce infectious virus. New therapies are therefore needed not only for HIV suppression but also for containing or eliminating HIV reservoirs. Compounds derived from plant, marine, and other natural products have been found to combat HIV infection and/or target HIV reservoirs, and these discoveries have substantially guided current HIV therapy-based studies. Here we summarize the role of natural product-derived compounds in current HIV suppression, remission, and cure strategies.

Abstract
Natural products originating from marine and plant materials are a rich source of chemical diversity and unique antimicrobials. Using an established in vitro model of HIV-1 latency, we screened 257 pure compounds from a marine natural product library and identified 4 (psammaplin A, aplysiatoxin, debromoaplysiatoxin, and previously-described alotaketal C) that induced expression of latent HIV-1 provirus in both cell line and primary cell models. Notably, aplysiatoxin induced similar levels of HIV-1 expression as prostratin but at up to 900-fold lower concentrations and without substantial effects on cell viability. Psammaplin A enhanced HIV-1 expression synergistically when treated in combination with the protein kinase C (PKC) activator prostratin, but not the histone deacetylase inhibitor (HDACi) panobinostat, suggesting that psammaplin A functions as a latency-reversing agent (LRA) of the HDACi class. Conversely, aplysiatoxin and debromoaplysiatoxin synergized with panobinostat but not prostratin, suggesting that they function as PKC activators. Our study identifies new compounds from previously untested marine natural products and adds to the repertoire of LRAs that can inform therapeutic “shock-and-kill”-based strategies to eliminate latent HIV-infected reservoirs.

Abstract
The peer-reviewed marine pharmacology literature from 2012 to 2013 was systematically reviewed, consistent with the 1998–2011 reviews of this series. Marine pharmacology research from 2012 to 2013, conducted by scientists from 42 countries in addition to the United States, reported findings on the preclinical pharmacology of 257 marine compounds. The preclinical pharmacology of compounds isolated from marine organisms revealed antibacterial, antifungal, antiprotozoal, antituberculosis, antiviral and anthelmitic pharmacological activities for 113 marine natural products. In addition, 75 marine compounds were reported to have antidiabetic and anti-inflammatory activities and affect the immune and nervous system. Finally, 69 marine compounds were shown to display miscellaneous mechanisms of action which could contribute to novel pharmacological classes. Thus, in 2012–2013, the preclinical marine natural product pharmacology pipeline provided novel pharmacology and lead compounds to the clinical marine pharmaceutical pipeline, and contributed significantly to potentially novel therapeutic approaches to several global disease categories.

Abstract
This review covers the literature published in 2013 for marine natural products (MNPs), with 982 citations (644 for the period January to December 2013) referring to compounds isolated from marine microorganisms and phytoplankton, green, brown and red algae, sponges, cnidarians, bryozoans, molluscs, tunicates, echinoderms, mangroves and other intertidal plants and microorganisms. The emphasis is on new compounds (1163 for 2013), together with the relevant biological activities, source organisms and country of origin. Reviews, biosynthetic studies, first syntheses, and syntheses that lead to the revision of structures or stereochemistries, have been included.

Abstract
Three new terpene metabolites (1-3) were isolated from the marine sponge Clathria gombawuiensis collected from Korean waters. On the basis of the results of combined spectroscopic analyses, the structures of phorone B (1) and ansellone C (2) were determined to be the sesterterpenes of the phorone and ansellone classes, respectively, whereas the saponin gombaside A (3) was a nortriterpene sodium O-sulfonato-glucuronide of the rare 4,4,14-trimethylpregnane class. The absolute configuration of the glucuronate of 3 was assigned by an application of the phenylglycine methyl ester (PGME) method. The new compounds exhibited moderate cytotoxicity against A549 and K562 cell lines, and compound 3 showed antibacterial activity. The cytotoxicity of 1 may be related to the presence of a free phenolic -OH group, as the corresponding O-methoxy derivative 4 is inactive.
