    Abstract During a recent biodiscovery study to identify new α-synuclein (α-syn) aggregation inhibitors, we screened 29 Australian marine sponge and ascidian extracts in an MS binding assay. This resulted in an extract from the ascidian Sycozoa cerebriformis showing activity toward α-syn. The bioassay and MS guided isolation process led to the identification of one new polyoxygenated sterol sulfate, sycosterol A (1). The structure of this low-yielding steroid was elucidated from HRMS and NMR analysis. Sycosterol A displayed moderate antiaggregation activity with 46.2% (±1.8) inhibition when screened against α-syn at a 5:1 (sycosterol A:α-syn) molar ratio. The α-syn antiaggregation activity displayed by 1 and the recent discovery of similar sterols with α-syn antiaggregation activity and potent antiprion activity suggest this unique class may be useful antineurodegenerative compounds.

    Abstract Preventing the aggregation of certain amyloid proteins has the potential to slow down the progression of diseases like Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and type 2 diabetes mellitus. During a high-throughput screen of 300 Australian marine invertebrate extracts, the extract of the marine sponge Thorectandra sp. 4408 displayed binding activity to the Parkinson's disease-associated protein, α-synuclein. Isolation of the active component led to its identification as the known plant growth promoter asterubine (1). This molecule shares distinct structural similarities with potent amyloid beta aggregation inhibitors tramiprosate (homotaurine) and ALZ-801. Herein we report the isolation, NMR data acquired in DMSO and α-synuclein binding activity of asterubine (1).

    Abstract Citronamine A (1), an isoquinoline alkaloid containing an unprecedented pentacyclic ring system, was isolated from the Australian marine sponge Citronia astra. Based on the combination of MS and NMR analyses and comparison of experimental and TDDFT calculated ECD spectra, the absolute structure of 1 was determined. Compound 1 displayed moderate activity against drug sensitive (3D7) and drug resistant (Dd2) strains of the parasite, Plasmodium falciparum, responsible for malaria.

    Abstract Seven new polyaromatic bis-spiroketal-containing butenolides, the prunolides D–I (4–9) and cis-prunolide C (10), a new dibrominated β-carboline sulfamate named pityriacitrin C (11), alongside the known prunolides A–C (1–3) were isolated from the Australian colonial ascidian Synoicum prunum. The prunolides D–G (4–7) represent the first asymmetrically brominated prunolides, while cis-prunolide C (10) is the first reported with a cis-configuration about the prunolide’s bis-spiroketal core. The prunolides displayed binding activities with the Parkinson’s disease-implicated amyloid protein α-synuclein in a mass spectrometry binding assay, while the prunolides (1–5 and 10) were found to significantly inhibit the aggregation (>89.0%) of α-synuclein in a ThT amyloid dye assay. The prunolides A–C (1–3) were also tested for inhibition of pSyn aggregate formation in a primary embryonic mouse midbrain dopamine neuron model with prunolide B (2) displaying statistically significant inhibitory activity at 0.5 μM. The antiplasmodial and antibacterial activities of the isolates were also examined with prunolide C (3) displaying only weak activity against the 3D7 parasite strain of Plasmodium falciparum. Our findings reported herein suggest that the prunolides could provide a novel scaffold for the exploration of future therapeutics aimed at inhibiting amyloid protein aggregation and the treatment of numerous neurodegenerative diseases.
