Article Synopsis
- Six new cyclic peroxides (1-6) and two new alkylpyridinium alkaloids (7 and 8) were discovered in the Korean sponge Plakortis simplex.
- The structures of these compounds were identified using NMR analysis and various chemical reactions.
- Compounds 1-6 demonstrated cytotoxic and antifungal activities against RAW264.7 cells and Candida albicans.
Densanins A (1) and B (2) were isolated from the sponge Haliclona densaspicula. On the basis of spectral data and the Mosher ester method, the complete structures were characterized as hexacyclic diamine alkaloids, which were probably derived from 3-alkylpyridine. Compounds 1 and 2 showed relatively potent inhibitory effects on lipopolysaccharide-induced nitric oxide production in BV2 microglial cells with IC(50) values of 1.

Evid Based Complement Alternat Med
September 2009
The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between variations in skin humidity (SH) induced by perspiration across Sasang types and to identify novel and effective Sasang classification factors. We also analyzed the responses of each Sasang type to sweating-related QSCC II items. The results revealed a significant difference in SH across gender and significant differences in SH before and after perspiration between Tae-Eum and So-Eum men.
