Abstract

Four new eunicellin-type hirsutalins S-V (1-4), along with a known compound (-)-6α-hydroxy polyanthellin A (5), were isolated from the soft coral Cladiella hirsuta. The structures of the metabolites were determined by extensive spectroscopic analysis. Cytotoxity of compounds 1-5 against the proliferation of a limited panel of cancer cell lines was measured. Anti-inflammatory activity of compounds 1-5 was evaluated by measuring their ability in suppressing superoxide anion generation and elastase release in fMLP/CB-induced human neutrophils.
