Disclosing the antitumour potential of the marine bromoditerpene sphaerococceno...
Alves, Celso; Silva, Joana; Afonso, Marta B; Guedes, Romina A.; Guedes, Rita C.; Alvariño, Rebeca; Pinteus, Susete; Gaspar, Helena; Goettert, Márcia I.Nature has revealed to be a key source of innovative anticancer drugs. This study evaluated the antitumour potential of the marine bromoditerpene sphaerococcenol A on different cancer cellular models. Dose-response analyses (0.1-100 µM; 24 h) were accomplished in eight different tumour cell lines (A549, CACO-2, HCT-15, MCF-7, NCI-H226, PC-3, SH-SY5Y, SK-MEL-28). Deeper studies were conducted on MFC-7 cells, nam...

Bromoditerpenes from the red seaweed Sphaerococcus coronopifolius as potential ...
Alves, Celso; Silva, Joana; Pintéus, Susete; Guedes, Romina A.; Guedes, Rita C.; Alvariño, Rebeca; Freitas, Rafaela; Goettert, Márcia I.; Gaspar, HelenaSeaweeds are a great source of compounds with cytotoxic properties with the potential to be used as anticancer agents. This study evaluated the cytotoxic and proteasome inhibitory activities of 12R-hydroxy-bromosphaerol, 12S-hydroxy-bromosphaerol, and bromosphaerol isolated from Sphaerococcus coronopifolius. The cytotoxicity was evaluated on malignant cell lines (A549, CACO-2, HCT-15, MCF-7, NCI-H226, PC-3, SH-...

Cytotoxic Mechanism of Sphaerodactylomelol, an Uncommon Bromoditerpene Isolated...
Alves, Celso; Silva, Joana; Pinteus, Susete; Alonso, Eva; Alvariño, Rebeca; Duarte, Adriana; Marmitt, Diorge; Goettert, Márcia Inês; Gaspar, HelenaMarine natural products have exhibited uncommon chemical structures with relevant antitumor properties highlighting their potential to inspire the development of new anticancer agents. The goal of this work was to study the antitumor activities of the brominated diterpene sphaerodactylomelol, a rare example of the dactylomelane family. Cytotoxicity (10-100 µM; 24 h) was evaluated on tumor cells (A549, CACO-2, H...
