Abstract

Lissoclibadins, polysulfur aromatic alkaloids, were isolated from the Indonesian ascidian Lissoclinum cf. badium. Lissoclibadins 1 (1), 3 (2), 4 (3), 7 (4), 8 (5), and 14 (6) inhibited the growth of four human solid cancer cell lines: HCT-15 (colon adenocarcinoma), HeLa-S3 (cervix adenocarcinoma), MCF-7 (breast adenocarcinoma), and NCI-H28 (mesothelioma). Lissoclibadin 1 (1) exerted the most potent cytotoxic effects in vitro and mainly promoted apoptosis through an intrinsic pathway with the activation of a caspase-dependent pathway in HCT-15 cells. In vivo studies demonstrated that 1 suppressed tumor growth in nude mice carrying HCT-15 cells without significant secondary adverse effects. In conclusion, the results obtained in the present study demonstrate that 1 has potential as a chemotherapeutic candidate for preclinical investigations.
