Title: Amantelides A and B, Polyhydroxylated Macrolides with Differential Broad-Spectrum Cytotoxicity from a Guamanian Marine Cyanobacterium.
Authors: Salvador-Reyes LA, Sneed J, Paul VJ, Luesch H.
Abstract: Cytotoxicity-guided fractionation of a Guamanian cyanobacterial collection yielded the new compounds amantelides A (1) and B (2). These polyketides are characterized by a 40-membered macrolactone ring consisting of a 1,3-diol and contiguous 1,5-diol units and a tert-butyl substituent. Amantelide A (1) displayed potent cytotoxicity with submicromolar IC₅₀ against HT29 colorectal adenocarcinoma and HeLa cervical carcinoma cell lines. Acetylation of the hydroxy group at C-33 in 2 caused a close to 10-fold decrease in potency. Exhaustive acetylation of the hydroxy groups abrogated the antiproliferative activity of amantelide A (1) by 20-67-fold. Further bioactivity assessment of 1 against bacterial pathogens and marine fungi indicated a broad spectrum of bioactivity.
