Abstract

Using various chromatographic methods, five new sesquiterpene derivatives named smenohaimiens A–E (1–5) and five known, 19-hydroxy-polyfibrospongol B (6), ilimaquinone (7), dictyoceratin C (8), polyfibrospongol A (9), and polyfibrospongol B (10) were isolated from the marine sponge Smenospongia cerebriformis Duchassaing & Michelotti, 1864. Their structures were assigned by 1D, 2D NMR spectroscopic analysis, HR ESI MS, and calculations of the electron circular dichroism spectra. All compounds were evaluated for the inhibitory activity against NO production in lipopolysaccharide-stimulated in BV2 microglia cells. As the results, compound 7 significantly inhibited NO production with the IC50 value of 10.40 ± 1.28 µM. The remaining compounds showed moderate inhibitory NO production activities with IC50 values ranging from 24.37 to 30.43 µM.
