Metabolomics can be used to study complex mixtures of natural products, or secondary metabolites, for many different purposes. One productive application of metabolomics that has emerged in recent years is the guiding direction for isolating molecules with structural novelty through analysis of untargeted LC-MS/MS data. The metabolomics-driven investigation and bioassay-guided fractionation of a biomass assemblage from the South China Sea dominated by a marine filamentous cyanobacteria, cf. Neolyngbya sp., has led to the discovery of a natural product in this study, wenchangamide A (1). Wenchangamide A was found to concentration-dependently cause fast-onset apoptosis in HCT116 human colon cancer cells in vitro (24 h IC50 = 38 μM). Untargeted metabolomics, by way of MS/MS molecular networking, was used further to generate a structural proposal for a new natural product analogue of 1, here coined wenchangamide B, which was present in the organic extract and bioactive sub-fractions of the biomass examined. The wenchangamides are of interest for anticancer drug discovery, and the characterization of these molecules will facilitate the future discovery of related natural products and development of synthetic analogues.

Minnamide A is a lipopeptide with a unique repeating structure consisting of hydroxy and proposed β-branched methyl groups. The absolute configuration of minnamide A was determined by a combination of chemical degradation, chiral HPLC analyses, and synthetic methods. Minnamide A showed growth-inhibitory activity toward HeLa cells with an IC50 value of 0.17 μM and rapidly induced cell death at a concentration of 2 μM. Minnamide A induced the copper-mediated accumulation of reactive oxygen species.

Biselyngbyaside, an 18-membered macrolide glycoside from marine cyanobacteria, and its derivatives are known to be sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ ATPase (SERCA) inhibitors. Recently, a SERCA orthologue of the malaria parasite, PfATP6, has attracted attention as a malarial drug target. To provide a novel drug lead, we designed new synthetic analogs of biselyngbyolide B, the aglycone of biselyngbyaside, based on the co-crystal structure of SERCA with biselyngbyolide B, and synthesized them using the established synthetic route for biselyngbyolide B. Their biological activities against malarial parasites were evaluated.

Lingaoamide (1), a new cyclic heptapeptide natural product, was isolated from a freshwater Oscillatoria cyanobacterium. The producing organism was collected in Chinese water spinach paddy farm fields in Lingao County, Hainan, China. The structure of 1 was determined by conventional mass spectrometry, NMR spectroscopy, and chemical degradation studies. Lingaoamide concentration-dependently up-regulates the biogenesis of pro-pathogenic melanin pigments (melanogenesis) in the rice blast fungus, Magnaporthe grisea, when tested in vitro. This molecule also exhibits weak in vitro inhibition (MIC 32 μg/mL) of Gram-negative Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Gram-positive Bacillus pumilus, and does not appear to impact plant growth or immune response in vivo using the model organism, Arabidopsis thaliana.

In 2014, the γ-pyrone-containing polyketide, yoshinone A, was isolated from the marine cyanobacterium Leptolyngbya sp. and its structure was determined. Yoshinone A inhibited differentiation of 3T3-L1 cells into adipocytes, with an EC50 value of 420 nM without any cytotoxicity, and therefore is expected to be a lead compound for obesity drugs. To establish its absolute configuration, and to provide sufficient amounts for further research, the total synthesis of yoshinone A was achieved through synthesis of its two possible diastereomers.

Kanamienamide, an enamide with an enol ether, was isolated from the marine cyanobacterium Moorea bouillonii. The gross structure was established by spectroscopic analyses, and the relative stereochemistry was elucidated on the basis of the analyses of NOESY correlations and 1H–1H coupling constants. The absolute configuration was determined on the basis of the chiral HPLC analysis of the N-Me-Leu derived from kanamienamide. This is the first report of a natural product that possesses an N-Me-enamide adjacent to an enol ether. Kanamienamide showed growth-inhibitory activity toward HeLa cells with an IC50 value of 2.5 μM and induced apoptosis-like cell death.

Aglaia odorata Lour. (Meliaceae) was found to have very strong allelopathic activity and a bioherbicide PORGANIC(™) was developed from its leaf extracts. However, the phytotoxic substances causing the strong allelopathic activity of the plants have not yet been determined. Therefore, we investigated allelopathic properties and phytotoxic substances in A. odorata. Aqueous EtOH extracts of A. odorata leaves inhibited root and shoot growth of garden cress (Lepidum sativum), lettuce (Lactuca sativa), alfalfa (Medicago sativa), timothy (Phleum pratense), ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum), and Echinochloa crus-galli with the extract concentration-dependent manner. The extracts were then purified and a major phytotoxic substance with allelopathic activity was isolated and identified by spectral data as rocaglaol. Rocaglaol inhibited the growth of garden cress and E. crus-galli at concentrations > 0.3 and 0.03 μm, respectively. The concentrations required for 50% inhibition ranged from 0.09 to 2.5 μm. The inhibitory activity of rocaglaol on the weed species, E. crus-galli, was much greater than that of abscisic acid. These results suggest that rocaglaol may be a major contributor to the allelopathic effect of A. odorata and bioherbicide PORGANIC(™) .

Marine cyanobacteria are known as important creators of novel natural products. From this valuable source, various bioactive compounds have been found and characterized in terms of their pharmacological and toxicological activities.1 In the previous work, we have reported on the isolation and structure determination of potent cytotoxic compounds, lyngbyacyclamide A and B;2 an inhibitor of osteoclastogenesis, biselyngbyaside;3 and a protein kinase inhibitor, bisebromoamide.4 In the recent work, we have reported the new marine γ-pyrones yoshinone A, B1 and B2 from Leptolyngbya sp., and determined their planar structures using NMR spectral analysis.5 Yoshinone A, as the major compound among them, showed inhibitory activity against the adipogenic differentiation of 3T3-L1 cells with an half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) value of 420 nm without cytotoxicity (IC50>50 μm). On the other hand, the yoshinone B1 and B2 showed only limited activity against 3T3-L1 cells, with higher concentrations compared with yoshinone A. Further studies of the structure–activity relationship lead us to conclude that the position of a pyrone ring and an olefin in the side chain will be important for the inhibition of adipogenic differentiation. These γ-pyrones have olefins in their side chain at positions 7 and 6 in the cases of yoshinones A and B1/B2, respectively. To express the effects on adipocyte, the olefin should not be conjugated with γ-pyrone moiety, such as yoshinone A (Figure 1). In the previous studies, kalkipyrone6 isolated from cyanobacteria, aureothin,7 and actinopyrones A and B8 isolated from streptomyces fell into the same 7-en γ-pyrones. Then, we confirmed that kalkipyrone and aureothin showed this activity, with IC50 values of 67.5 and 54.2 nm, respectively. On the basis of these data, we are focusing on the 7-en γ-pyrone (unconjugated type) compounds. These pyrones are expected to be candidates for novel lead compounds for the treatment of obesity and related diseases.9 Studies on useful tools that regulate adipocytes will contribute to the prevention and treatment of these diseases. At the present stage of our research, we have evaluated the anti-obesity activities of the 7-en γ-pyrones using in vitro and in vivo experiments. In this study, we report on the interesting properties of these pyrones.

Aplog-1 is a simplified analog of debromoaplysiatoxin (DAT) with potent tumor-promoting and proinflammatory activities. Aplog-1 and DAT exhibited anti-proliferative activities against several human cancer cell lines, whereas aplog-1 did not have tumor-promoting nor proinflammatory activities. We have recently found 10-methyl-aplog-1 (1) to have strong anti-proliferative activity compared with aplog-1. To further investigate the structural factors involved in the tumor-promoting, proinflammatory, and anti-proliferative activities, two dimethyl derivatives of aplog-1 (2, 3) were synthesized, where two methyl groups were installed at positions 4 and 10 or 10 and 12. 10,12-Dimethyl-aplog-1 (2) had stronger inhibitory effects on the growth of several human cancer cell lines than 1 and DAT, but exhibited no tumor-promoting and proinflammatory activities. In contrast, 4,10-dimethyl-aplog-1 (3) displayed weak tumor-promoting and proinflammatory activities along with anti-proliferative activity similar to that of 1 and DAT. Compound 2 would be the optimized seed for anticancer drugs among the simplified analogs of DAT.

Wedelia chinensis has been widely used as a traditional medicine and several bioactive compounds have been isolated. We investigated phytotoxic property and phytotoxic substances in the species. An aqueous methanol extract of W. chinensis inhibited the growth of roots and shoots of cress. The extracts were then purified by several chromatographic runs with monitoring the inhibitory activity and a phytotoxic substance was isolated. The substance was determined by spectral data to be a novel kaurene-type compound, wedelienone. Wedelienone inhibited the growth of cress and timothy (Phleum pratense L) at concentrations greater than 10–30 μM. These results suggest that wedelienone may contribute to the phytotoxic effects caused by the extracts.

Two new jahanyne analogues, jahanene and jahanane, highly N-methylated lipopeptides, were isolated from a marine cyanobacterium Okeania sp., and their structures were determined by NMR and MS. In addition, we achieved total syntheses of the jahanyne family and assessed their activities. The resulting growth-inhibitory activity of jahanyne was nearly one-tenth of the previously reported activity. Furthermore, we found that the degree of unsaturation at the terminus of the fatty acid moiety affected the growth-inhibitory activity against human cancer cells.

In 2014, we isolated kurahyne, an acetylene-containing lipopeptide, from a marine cyanobacterial assemblage of Lyngbya sp. Kurahyne exhibited growth-inhibitory activity against human cancer cells, and induced apoptosis in HeLa cells. However, its mode of action is not yet clear. To elucidate its mode of action, we carried out several cell-based assays, and identified the intracellular target molecule of kurahyne as sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) ATPase (SERCA). In addition, we found that kurahyne inhibited the differentiation of macrophages into osteoclasts.

Biselyngbyasides (BLSs), macrolides from a marine cyanobacterium, are cytotoxic natural products whose target molecule is unknown. Here we report that BLSs are high affinity (Ki∼10nM) inhibitors of Ca2+-pumps with a unique binding mode. The crystal structures of the Ca2+-pump in complex with BLSs at 3.2–3.5Å-resolution show that BLSs bind to the pump near the cytoplasmic surface of the transmembrane region. The crystal structures and activity measurement of BLS analogs allow us to identify the structural features that confer high potency to BLSs as inhibitors of the pump.

Mebamamides A and B, new lipopeptides with four d-amino acid residues and a 3,8-dihydroxy-9-methyldecanoic acid residue, were isolated from the green alga Derbesia marina. Their gross structures were elucidated by spectroscopic and ESI-ITMS analyses. The absolute configurations except for the two leucines were revealed based on chiral-phase HPLC analyses of the acid hydrolysate and a modified Mosher's method. A distinction between D-Leu and L-Leu in the sequence was established by the application of a dansyl-Edman method to the partial acid hydrolysate. Mebamamide A did not exhibit any growth inhibitory activity against HeLa and HL60 cells at 10 μM, and mebamamide B did not exhibit any growth inhibitory activity against those cells at 100 μM. Additionally, it was suggested that mebamamide B induced the differentiation of HL60 cells into macrophage-like cells at 100 μM.

Ninety samples from the extracts of plants from traditional Chinese medicines were screened for antitumor activity. Paeoniflorigenone (PFG) was isolated as an active ingredient from the root of moutan cortex, which showed the strongest activity. In addition, our data indicated that PFG was cytotoxic and induced apoptosis selectively in the cancer cell lines. These effects were cancelled by the addition of caspase inhibitor Z-VAD-FMK, suggesting that it was mediated by caspase-3 activation.

Aplyronine A (1) and mycalolide B (2), which are cytotoxic actin-depolymerizing marine macrolides, were revealed to induce apoptosis in human leukemia HL60 cells and human epithelial carcinoma HeLa S(3) cells. Based on these results, actin-depolymerizing compounds were expected to exhibit apoptosis-inducing activity in cancer cells. Compounds 3-6, which were synthesized based on the side-chain structure of aplyronine A, were evaluated for their actin-depolymerizing activities in vitro and cytotoxicities against HL60 cells. The growth-inhibitory activities of 3-6 were well correlated with their actin-depolymerizing activities, and derivative 6 was shown to induce the disruption of actin filaments and apoptosis in HL60 cells. These results suggested that actin-depolymerizing agents 1, 2, and 6-induced apoptosis in HL60 cells may have been due to their actin-depolymerizing activity.

Bioassay-guided fractionation of the marine cyanobacterium Lyngbya sp. led to the isolation of biselyngbyasides B ( 3 ), C ( 4 ), and D ( 5 ), novel analogs of biselyngbyaside ( 1 ) and biselyngbyolide A ( 2 ). The gross structures of 3 – 5 were determined by NMR spectral analyses, and their stereochemistries were established based on NOESY spectra and CD data. Biselyngbyasides ( 1 – 3 ) showed growth-inhibitory activity and apoptosis-inducing activity against both HeLa S 3 cells and HL60 cells. The fura-2 method revealed that biselyngbyasides ( 1 – 3 ) increased the cytosolic Ca 2+ concentration in HeLa S 3 cells.

The mass and function of bones depend on the maintenance of a complicated balance between osteoclast-mediated bone resorption and osteoblast-mediated bone formation. An inhibitor of osteoclast differentiation and/or function is expected to be useful for treatment of bone lytic diseases such as osteoporosis, rheumatoid arthritis, and tumor metastasis into bone. Biselyngbyaside is a recently isolated macrolide compound from marine cyanobacteria Lyngbya sp. that shows wide-spectrum cytotoxicity toward human tumor cell lines. In this study, we investigated the effects of biselyngbyaside on osteoclast differentiation and function. Biselyngbyaside inhibited receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL)-induced osteoclastogenesis in mouse monocytic RAW264 cells and primary bone marrow-derived macrophages at a low concentration. Similarly, biselyngbyaside suppressed osteoblastic cell-mediated osteoclast differentiation in cocultures. In the RANKL-induced signaling pathway, biselyngbyaside inhibited the expression of c-Fos and NFATc1, which are important transcription factors in osteoclast differentiation. In mature osteoclasts, biselyngbyaside decreased resorption-pit formation. Biselyngbyaside also induced apoptosis accompanied by the induction of caspase-3 activation and nuclear condensation, and these effects were negated by the pancaspase inhibitor z-VAD-FMK. Taken together, the present findings indicate that biselyngbyaside suppresses bone resorption via inhibition of osteoclastogenesis and induction of apoptosis. Thus, biselyngbyaside may be useful for the prevention of bone lytic diseases.

Five cytotoxic macrolides, aplyronines D–H (4–8), were isolated from the Japanese sea hare Aplysia kurodai. They are new congeners of the antitumor compound aplyronine A (1), which was previously isolated from the same organism. Their structures were determined by spectroscopic analysis (NMR and MS). The cytotoxicity of these new compounds was evaluated in comparison with that of aplyronines A–C (1–3), suggesting the importance of the 7-O-seryl ester group for mediating the potent cytotoxicity of aplyronines.

Novel potent cytotoxic peptides bisebromoamide (1) and norbisebromoamide (2) have been isolated from the marine cyanobacterium Lyngbya sp. The planar structure of these peptides was elucidated through the extensive application of 1D and 2D NMR techniques. The absolute stereostructure of 1 was determined by chemical degradation followed by chiral HPLC analysis. Recently, Tao and co-workers achieved synthesis of bisebromoamide, and the configuration of thiazoline moiety was revised. We re-investigated the stereochemistry of thiazoline moiety of 1. The structure–activity relationships of bisebromoamide (1) were investigated with the use of natural and synthetic analogs. Furthermore, bisebromoamide (1) potently inhibited protein kinase: the phosphorylation of ERK in NRK cells by PDGF-stimulation was selectively inhibited by treatment with 10–0.1 μM of 1.

Halichonine B is a sesquiterpene alkaloid isolated from the marine sponge Halichondria okadai Kadota. Halichonine B has exhibited cytotoxicity against mammalian cancer cells and induced apoptosis in the human leukemia cell line HL60. Here we established a practical route for the synthesis of halichonine B and its analogues, and we evaluated their biological activities. It was revealed that the secondary amino groups in the side chain portion are important for the strong cytotoxicity of halichonine B and that the N(11)-prenyl group is unimportant. Halichonine B and its analogues were also observed to induce apoptosis in HL60 cells.

The interaction between actin and aplyronine A, a potent antitumor and actin-depolymerizing substance of marine origin, was investigated by photoaffinity labeling experiments. Photoaffinity probes consisting of a side-chain portion of aplyronine A as a ligand, a diazirine moiety as a photoaffinity group, and a fluorophore as a detecting group were synthesized. Photolabeling experiments between actin and the probe were carried out. Actin was successfully photolabeled by the fluorescent probe and visualized clearly. The present results provide the first chemical evidence for the direct interaction between actin and the side-chain portion of aplyronine A.
