Species Notes (Chemistry / Bioactivity)
A literature review of marine sponge metabolites reports antiplasmodial (against Plasmodium falciparum in vitro) activity for isolated compounds attributed to Aplysinella strongylata, including a psammaplysin-family metabolite reported as 19-hydroxypsammaplysin E. The same review also lists additional psammaplysin-family variants for this species with activity described relative to the assay’s tested concentration range.[3]
