Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we focused on metabolic or phenotypic changes of cells in tumor microenvironments and searched for marine natural products capable of regulating them. Then, 10 bioactive natural products including 7 novel compounds were discovered. In addition, total synthesis of isolated bioactive natural products, study of structure- activity relationship by synthesized analog compounds, and evaluation of in vivo efficacy were carried out. Furthermore, for the purpose of exploring new drug targets, we analyzed the action-mechanisms and target molecule of bioactive natural products. As a result, the action-mechanism or target molecule of 5 compounds were clarified.
