Abstract

Staurosporine aglycone (K252-c) (compound 1) and arcyriaflavin A (2) were isolated from a specimen of the marine ascidian, Eudistoma sp., collected off the coast of West Africa. In addition to expressing micromolar and submicromolar inhibition of Enzyme activity against seven protein kinase C isoenzymes and inhibition of proliferation of the human lung Cancer A549 and P388 murine leukemia cell lines, 1 also inhibited cell adhesion of the EL-4.IL-2 cell line and expressed activity in the K562 bleb and neutrophil assays.
