octane structure, and was first separated by Takeshi Kuroda and Hideo Kigoshi et al. from Aplysia (Varria) kurodaiin 2008 (Org. Lett., Vol. 10, No. 3, p489-491, 2008). Its specific structure is as follows:

The literature characterizes the structure of Aplaminal through NMR and single crystal X-ray diffraction. It is reported that Aplaminal has the cytotoxicity against HeLa S3 cells (IC50=0.51 ug/mL). More clinical trials of it are still under study.


The preparation of Aplaminal through biological extraction involves extremely high cost and very low yield, and only 2 mg of Aplaminal can be extracted from 18 kg of aplysia. Therefore, Amos B. Smith III and Zhuqing Liu et al. (Org. Lett., Vol. 10, No. 19, p4363-4365, 2008) prepared Aplaminal through synthesis with N-Boc-(D)-serine as the raw material in 9 reaction processes, such as the hydroxyl protection, condensation, reduction, etc., with the yield of 17%. The specific reaction process is as follows:

Immune Bioactivity
Experimental Method:
Preparation of Murine Splenic Lymphocytes:

After mice were killed through spine dislocation, their spleen was taken aseptically to prepare single cell suspension. Redblood cells were removed from red blood cell lysis buffer, and the cell concentration was regulated.


Effect of the compound on the activity of murine splenic lymphocytes was detected with CCK-8 method:


Murine splenic lymphocyte suspension was inoculated in 96-well plates with 5×105/well. Meanwhile, different concentration of compound were added, corresponding solvent control and nutrient solution background control were also arranged. The total volume was 200 μL. The suspension was cultivated in an incubator with 5% CO2 at 37° C. for 48 hours. 8-10 hours before the cultivation was completed, CCK-8 solution was added. On completion of the cultivation, the OD value was measured with an ELIASA at 450 nm (reference 650 nm). Effect of the compound on the proliferation function of murine splenic lymphocytes was detected with 3H-TdR incorporation method:


Murine splenic lymphocyte suspension was inoculated in 96-well plates with 5×105/well. ConA (final concentration: 5 μg/ml) and different concentration of compound were added. Corresponding control well without ConA and control well without drugs were also arranged. The suspension was cultivated in an incubator with 5% CO2 at 37° C. for 48 hours. 8 hours before the cultivation was completed, 25 μl of 3H-TdR (10 μCi/ml) was added to each well. The suspension was further cultivated until the experiment was completed. Cells were collected with a cell collector onto a glass fiber membrane. After adding scintillation solution, the count of 3H-TdR incorporated into cellular DNA was obtained from a Beta counter (MicroBeta Trilux, PerkinElmer). The cell proliferation was expressed in terms of CPM.
