Abstract

Graduate Institute of Natural Products, College of Medicine, Chinese Herbal Medicine Research Team, Healthy Aging Research Center, Chang Gung University; Research Center for Chinese Herbal Medicine, Research Center for Food and Cosmetic Safety, and Graduate Institute of Health Industry Technology, College of Human Ecology, Chang Gung University of Science and Technology; Department of Anesthesiology, Chang Gung Memorial Hospital, Taoyuan 333, Taiwan,The structures, names, bioactivities, and references of 124 briarane-Type natural products, including 66 new metabolites, isolated between 2014 and 2016 are summarized in this review article. All of the briarane diterpenoids mentioned in this review were isolated from octocorals, mainly from Briareum violacea, Dichotella gemmacea, Ellisella dollfusi, Junceella fragilis, Junceella gemmacea, and Pennatula aculeata. Some of these compounds exhibited potential biomedical activities, including anti-inflammatory activity, antibacterial activity, and cytotoxicity towards cancer cells.
