Abstract
Chemical investigation of a Formosan soft coral, Sinularia gibberosa, has led to the isolation of eight oxygenated cembranoids, 1- 8, including seven new compounds, gibberosenes A-G ( 2- 8). None of these compounds were found to be cytotoxic toward a limited panel of cancer cell lines. Compound 1 significantly inhibited the accumulation of the pro-inflammatory COX-2 protein of the LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 macrophage cells.Entities:
