Journal ArticleDOI
Structure, bioactivities, biosynthetic relationships and chemical synthesis of the spirodioxynaphthalenes
TL;DR: This review summarizes the research on the isolation, structure elucidation, biological activities, biosynthesis, and chemical synthesis of the spirodioxynaphthalenes published over the last 20 years.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polyacetylenes of marine origin: chemistry and bioactivity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Brominated polyunsaturated lipids from the Chinese sponge Xestospongia testudinaria as a new class of pancreatic lipase inhibitors.
Lin-Fu Liang,Ting Wang,You-Sheng Cai,Wen-Fei He,Peng Sun,Yu-Fen Li,Qi Huang,Orazio Taglialatela-Scafati,He-Yao Wang,Yue-Wei Guo +9 more
TL;DR: This is the first report of the PL inhibitory activity for brominated polyunsaturated lipids and the obtained results qualify compound 14 as a potent and bioavailable drug candidate for a mild and safe treatment to prevent and reduce obesity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polyoxygenated diterpenoids of the eunicellin-type from the Chinese soft coral Cladiella krempfi
You-Sheng Cai,Li-Gong Yao,Antonio Di Pascale,Carlo Irace,Ernesto Mollo,Orazio Taglialatela-Scafati,Yue-Wei Guo +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a detailed chemical investigation of the Chinese soft coral Cladiella krempfi has yielded four new eunicellin-based diterpenoids along with five known compounds.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structure, Bioactivities, Biosynthetic Relationships and Chemical Synthesis of the Spirodioxynaphthalenes
TL;DR: The spirodioxynaphthalenes as discussed by the authors are a group of fungal secondary metabolites, consisting of a 1,8-dihydroxynaphthalene-derived spiroketal unit linked to a second oxidized naphthalene moiety, that show a great variety of biological activities.
