摘要
The steroidal and terpenoidal composition of Sinularia variabilis was investigated by chromatography methods. One new (1), and four known [gorgasta-5-en-3 beta-ol (2), ergosta-5-en-3 beta-ol (3), ergosta-5, 22(Z)-dien-3 beta-ol (4), 5,8-epidioxy-5 alpha, 8 alpha-ergosta-6, 22E-dien-3 beta-ol (5)] steroids, in addition to one known diterpenoidal alkaloid [sinulasulfone (6)] isolated for the first time from S. variabilis. If we named the 23-methylergostane core structure as sinustane, new compound (1) was elucidated as 16 alpha,17 alpha-epoxysinusta-5-en-3 beta-ol-20 beta-yl sulfate based on NMR and HR Mass data. It was submitted for cytotoxic activity evaluation against MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cell lines using MTT assay. Apoptosis induction was checked by flow cytometry (annexin V/propidium iodide) staining. To determine the production of reactive oxygen species, and the mitochondrial transmembrane potential (Delta psi m), the DCFDA, and JC-1 probes were used in this study.
