Abstract

The gorgonian Echinogorgia sassapo reticulata contains two new bioactive polyhydroxylated steroids, sassapols A (1), B (2), and five related known compounds (37). Compound 6 has been encountered for the first time in natural sources. The structures of these new compounds were defined by spectroscopic analysis. All the compounds (17) isolated from E. sassapo reticulata were tested for anti-inflammatory activity. Compounds 1, 3, 5, and 7 inhibited both the generation of leukotriene C4 and the degranulation reaction in mouse bone marrow-derived mast cells.
