7-Hydroxyneolamellarin A (7-OH-Neo A, 1), a natural marine product derived from sponge Dendrilla nigra, was first synthesized with 10% overall yield under the instruction of convergent synthetic strategy. We found that 7-OH-Neo A could attenuate the accumulation of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) protein and inhibit vascular epidermal growth factor (VEGF) transcriptional activity, showing well inhibitory effect on HIF-1 signaling pathway. Meantime, 7-OH-Neo A had the well anti-tumor activities, such as inhibiting tumor angiogenesis, proliferation, migration and invasion. More importantly, 7-OH-Neo A exhibited profound anti-tumor effect in mice breast cancer model by suppressing the accumulation of HIF-1α in tumor tissue. Mechanism study demonstrated that 7-OH-Neo A might target the protein with the ability of stabilizing HIF-1α in hypoxia. Due to the excellent water solubility, superior anti-tumor activity and good biocompatibility, 7-OH-Neo A shows the promising potential for being exploited as an anti-tumor agent in near future.
