Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2021 Jun 1:41:128009. doi: 10.1016/j.bmcl.2021.128009. Epub 2021 Apr 6.

Abstract

Marine alkaloids were divided into five categories from the perspective of anti-tumor activity. The optimization process, chemical synthesis, anti-tumor activity evaluation and structure-activity relationship of various compounds were discussed.

Keywords: Anti-tumor activity; Marine alkaloid; Synthesis.
