Abstract: Polar organisms have been found to develop unique defences against the extreme environment environment, leading to the biosynthesis of novel molecules with diverse bioactivities. This review covers the 219 novel natural products described since 2001, from the Arctic and the Antarctic microoganisms, lichen, moss and marine faunas. The structures of the new compounds and details of the source organism, along with any relevant biological activities are presented. Where reported, synthetic and biosynthetic studies on the polar metabolites have also been included.

1. Introduction Organisms from special ecosystems such as the polar regions are a rich source of various chemical scaffolds and novel natural products with promising bioactivities. Polar regions, which refer to the Arctic, the Antarctic and their subregions, are remote and challenging areas on the earth. To survive under the constant influence of low temperatures, strong winds, low nutrient and high UV radiation or combinations of these factors [1], polar organisms require a diverse array of biochemical and physiological adaptations that are essential for survival. These adaptations are often accompanied by modifications to both gene regulation and metabolic pathways, increasing the possibility of finding unique functional metabolites of pharmaceutical importance. Polar regions are complex ecosystems that harbor diverse groups of fauna and microorganisms including bacteria, actinomycetes and fungi. Physiological adaptations have enabled psychrophilic organisms to thrive in the polar regions, especially microorganisms which are high in number and usually uncharacterized [2–5]. However, when compared to the large number of polar microorganisms which have been reported, very few have been screened for the production of interesting secondary metabolites. The advent of modern techniques provides the opportunity to find novel metabolites. From 2001 to 2016, a vast amount of new biological natural compounds with various activities, such as anti-bacteria, anti-tumor, anti-virus and so on, have been isolated from polar organisms including microorganisms, lichen, moss, bryozoans, cnidarians, echinoderms, molluscs, sponges and . Natural products from the Arctic or the Antarctic organisms have been the subject of several review articles. In 2007, Lebar et al. reviewed the studies on structure and bioactivity of cold-water marine natural products, including many polar examples [6]. In 2009, Wilson and Brimble reviewed molecules derived from the extremes of life, including some polar examples [7]. In 2011, advances in the chemistry and bioactivity of arctic sponge were reviewed by Hamann and his co-workers [8]. In 2013, Liu et al. reviewed a number of new secondary metabolites with various activities derived from both Antarcitc and Arctic organisms [9], while in 2014, Skropeta and Wei published a review on natural products isolated from deep-sea sources, which included some polar organisms [10]. Moreover,

Darwinolide (189), a novel spongian diterpene, was characterized from the Antarctic sponge Dendrilla membranosa. Darwinolide displayed antibiofilm activity against MRSA with no mammalian cytotoxicity, and may present a suitable scaffold for the development of novel antibiofilm agents to treat drug resistant bacterial infections [104]. Barettin (190), 8,9-dihydrobarettin (191), bromoconicamin (192) and a novel brominated marine indole (193) (Figure 18) were isolated from the sponge Geodia barretti collected off the Norwegian coast. The compounds were evaluated as inhibitors of electric eel acetylcholinesterase. Compounds 190 and 191 displayed significant inhibition of the enzyme, 192 was less potent against acetylcholinesterase, and 193 was inactive. Based on the inhibitory activity, a library of 22 simplified synthetic analogs was designed and prepared to probe the role of the brominated indole. From the structure–activity investigation, it was shown that the brominated indole motif is not sufficient to generate a high acetylcholinesterase inhibitory activity, even when combined with natural cationic ligands for the acetylcholinesterase active site. The four natural compounds were also analysed for butyrylcholinesterase inhibitory activity and shown to display comparable activities [105].

10. Tunicates Tunicates comprise >2800 species and have yielded a diverse array of bioactive metabolites [10,106], including anticancer agents such as didemnin B from Trididemnum solidum, diazonamide from Diazona angulata, and the approved anticancer drug Ecteinascidin 743 (Yondelis™) from Ecteinascidia turbinata [107,108]. Bioassay-guided fractionation of CH2Cl2/MeOH extracts of the Aplidium cyaneum collected in Antarctica led to the isolation of aplicyanins A–F (194–199) (Figure 19), a group of alkaloids containing a bromoindole nucleus and a 6-tetra-hydropyrimidine substituent at C-3. Cytotoxic activity in the submicromolar range as well as antimitotic properties were found for compounds 195, 197, and 199, whereas compounds 194 and 196 proved to be inactive at the highest concentrations tested and compound 198 displayed only mild cytotoxic properties. The results clearly suggested a key role for the presence of the acetyl group at N-16 in the biological activity of this family of compounds [109]. Five new ecdysteroids, hyousterones A–D (200–203) and abeohyousterone (204) (Figure 19), were isolated from the Antarctic tunicate adareanum by Baker and co-workers. Abeohyousterone (204) has moderate cytotoxicity toward several cancer cell lines. Hyousterones bearing the 14β-hydroxy group (200 and 202) were weakly cytotoxic, while the 14α-hydroxy hyousterones (201 and 203) were devoid of cytotoxicity [110]. Further chemical investigation of the same Antarctic tunicate S. adareanum yielded five new bioactive macrolides, palmerolide A (205) and D–G (206–209) (Figure 19). Most of these palmerolides were potent V-ATPase inhibitors and had sub-micromolar activity against melanoma [111,112]. Especially, palmerolide A remained the most potent of this series of natural products against melanoma cells. In the National Cancer Institute (NCI) sixty-cell panel, palmerolide A did not display cytotoxicity below 1 µM against any non-melanoma cell lines. In vivo activity of palmerolide A in mice has been confirmed in the NCI’s hollow fiber assay [113]. Structural features of palmerolide A such as the carbamate and the vinyl amide moieties led the Baker group to hypothesize a bacterial origin for this polyketide. One finding that supported the possibility was the identification of polyketide synthase (PKS) genes, similar to bryostatin biosynthetic genes [114]. Due to promising biological activity and limited access to natural supplies, as well as their challenging structures, palmerolide A and congeneric structures are important targets for chemical synthesis. Recent advances in the synthesis of the palmerolides have been reviewed by Lisboa and Dudley [115]. To date, three total syntheses [116–120] of palmerolide A have been reported. Four groups disclosed formal syntheses [121–126], and various synthetic approaches have also been described [127–135]. The synthesis of the reported structure of palmerolide C has also been achieved, and a structural revision has been proposed [136]. Mar. Drugs 2017, 15, 28 20 of 30 Mar. Drugs 2017, 15, 28 20 of 30

However, when compared to the large number of polar microorganisms which have been reported, very few have been screened for the production of interesting secondary metabolites. This situation may be attributed to the difficulties in cultivating polar microorganisms, some of which cannot survive under normal laboratory conditions and therefore cannot be cultured using traditional techniques. As yet, the potential of this area remains virtually untapped. Nowadays, advances in laboratory techniques have led to cultivation of some previously inaccessible extremophiles. Moreover, new tools developed recently in the fields of bioinformatics [146], analytics [147], and molecular biology [148], in combination with rapid improvement in sequencing technology, might herald a new era of research into this specific source.
