Chemistry:Agelasimine
From HandWiki
Agelasimines are a group of adenine-related bicyclic diterpenoids isolated from the orange sponge Agelas mauritania.[1] Their chemical structures are closely related to the agelasines.
Both groups of compounds display a range of biological activities, such as cytotoxicity, inhibition of adenosine transfer into rabbit erythrocytes (red blood cells), Ca2+ channel antagonistic action, α1 adrenergic blockade and others.[2][3]
Both compounds have been reproduced in the laboratory by organic synthesis.
