The Ascidian-Derived Metabolites with Antimicrobial Properties
antibiotics Review The Ascidian-Derived Metabolites with Antimicrobial Properties Marcello Casertano , Marialuisa Menna * and Concetta Imperatore Department of Pharmacy, University of Naples “Federico II”, Via D. Montesano 49, 80131 Napoli, Italy; [email protected] (M.C.); [email protected] (C.I.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +39-081678518 Received: 30 June 2020; Accepted: 11 August 2020; Published: 13 August 2020 Abstract: Among the sub-phylum of Tunicate, ascidians represent the most abundant class of marine invertebrates, with 3000 species by heterogeneous habitat, that is, from shallow water to deep sea, already reported. The chemistry of these sessile filter-feeding organisms is an attractive reservoir of varied and peculiar bioactive compounds. Most secondary metabolites isolated from ascidians stand out for their potential as putative therapeutic agents in the treatment of several illnesses like microbial infections. In this review, we present and discuss the antibacterial activity shown by the main groups of ascidian-derived products, such as sulfur-containing compounds, meroterpenes, alkaloids, peptides, furanones, and their derivatives. Moreover, the direct evidence of a symbiotic association between marine ascidians and microorganisms shed light on the real producers of many extremely potent marine natural compounds. Hence, we also report the antibacterial potential, joined to antifungal and antiviral activity, of metabolites isolated from ascidian-associate microorganisms by culture-dependent methods. Keywords: ascidian; antibacterial; antimicrobial; antiviral; marine natural products; ascidian- associated microorganisms 1. Introduction Antimicrobial agents (including antibiotic, antiviral, antifungal, and antiprotozoal drugs) certainly are critical tools for the treatment of infectious diseases, and many feats of modern medicine and surgery also are determined by the availability of effective antibiotics. -
Natural Products Diversity of Marine Ascidians (Tunicates; Ascidiacea) and Successful Drugs in Clinical Development
Nat. Prod. Bioprospect. DOI 10.1007/s13659-016-0115-5 REVIEW Natural Products Diversity of Marine Ascidians (Tunicates; Ascidiacea) and Successful Drugs in Clinical Development Satheesh Kumar Palanisamy . N. M. Rajendran . Angela Marino Received: 19 November 2016 / Accepted: 14 December 2016 Ó The Author(s) 2017. This article is published with open access at Springerlink.com Abstract This present study reviewed the chemical diversity of marine ascidians and their pharmacological applications, challenges and recent developments in marine drug discovery reported during 1994–2014, highlighting the structural activity of compounds produced by these specimens. Till date only 5% of living ascidian species were studied from\3000 species, this study represented from family didemnidae (32%), polyclinidae (22%), styelidae and polycitoridae (11–12%) exhibiting the highest number of promising MNPs. Close to 580 compound structures are here discussed in terms of their occurrence, structural type and reported biological activity. Anti-cancer drugs are the main area of interest in the screening of MNPs from ascidians (64%), followed by anti-malarial (6%) and remaining others. FDA approved ascidian compounds mechanism of action along with other compounds status of clinical trials (phase 1 to phase 3) are discussed here in. This review highlights recent developments in the area of natural products chemistry and biotechnological approaches are emphasized. Keywords Cancer Á Cytotoxicity Á Diversity Á Metabolites Á Pharmacology 1 Introduction from marine invertebrates, especially sponges, ascidians, bryozoans and molluscs in which some of them are The study of marine natural products (MNPs) is becoming approved by FDA and currently utilized in clinical trials ever more sophisticated and an increasingly collaborative [1]. -

Two fractions were obtained by liquid/liquid purification from a crude hydroethanolic extract: (i) an ethyl acetate fraction and (ii) an aqueous fraction. Total phenolic contents and antioxidant activities of extract and both fractions were assessed by in vitro tests (Folin–Ciocalteu test, 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity, reducing power assay, superoxide anion scavenging assay, and β-carotene–linoleic acid system). -

Received: 16 September 2011; in revised form: 11 October 2011 / Accepted: 14 October 2011 / Published: 19 October 2011 Abstract: About 300 alkaloid structures isolated from marine ascidians are discussed in term of their occurrence, structural type and reported pharmacological activity. Some major groups (e.g., the lamellarins and the ecteinascidins) are discussed in detail, highlighting their potential as therapeutic agents for the treatment of cancer or viral infections. Keywords: natural products; alkaloids; ascidians; ecteinascidis; lamellarins 1. Introduction Ascidians belong to the phylum Chordata, which encompasses all vertebrate animals, including mammals and, therefore, they represent the most highly evolved group of animals commonly investigated by marine natural products chemists. Together with the other classes (Thaliacea, Appendicularia, and Sorberacea) included in the subphylum Urochordata (=Tunicata), members of the class Ascidiacea are commonly referred to as tunicates, because their body is covered by a saclike case or tunic, or as sea squirts, because many species expel streams of water through a siphon when disturbed. There are roughly 3,000 living species of tunicates, of which ascidians are the most abundant and, thus, the mostly chemically investigated. -

This area is home to approximately 200 different species of macroalgae, representing the three major phyla of the green algae (Chlorophyta), brown algae (Ochrophyta) and the red algae (Rhodophyta), respectively. Over almost 50 years, the species of macroalgae associated and occurring within this area have resulted in the identification of a number of different types of secondary metabolites including terpenoids, sterols/steroids, phenolic acids, phenols, lipids/polyenes, pheromones, xanthophylls and phloroglucinols. Many of these compounds have subsequently displayed a variety of bioactivities. A systematic description of the compound classes and their associated bioactivities from marine macroalgae found within this region is presented.

Abstract: Marine tunicates are identified as a potential source of marine natural products (MNPs), demonstrating a wide range of biological properties, like antimicrobial and anticancer activities. The symbiotic relationship between tunicates and specific microbial groups has revealed the acquisi- tion of microbial compounds by tunicates for defensive purpose. For instance, yellow pigmented compounds, “tambjamines”, produced by the tunicate, Sigillina signifera (Sluiter, 1909), primarily Citation: Ramesh, C.; Tulasi, B.R.; originated from their bacterial symbionts, which are involved in their chemical defense function, indi- Raju, M.; Thakur, N.; Dufossé, L. cating the ecological role of symbiotic microbial association with tunicates.
