Marine strains of Bacillus are known to produce secondary metabolites different from that accumulated by their terrestrial counterparts, for example, lipopeptides such as surfactins, iturins and fengycins, which exhibit a variety of biological activities. Another important class of lipopeptides are pumilacidins, identified specially from Bacillus pumilus strains, usually by using liquid chromatography-mass spec...
Sesquiterpene lactones are an important class of secondary metabolites frequently isolated from Vernonanthura genus that present a variety of biological properties, including antiproliferative activity. Due to the limitation of pharmacological studies on Vernonanthura nudiflora, the aim of this work was to investigate their antioxidant potential and antiproliferative activity against human tumor cells, as well ...
