The marine metabolite heptylprodigiosin bioactivity and apoptotic mechanism of action in leukemic and other cancer cells

Heptylprodigiosin (HPDG) is a marine microbial metabolite produced by a bacterium isolated from a Philippine tunicate. A tripyrrole ring and a heptyl substituent typify HPDG as an analog of the prodigiosins. A wide spectrum of bioactivities possessed by HPDG, such as antimalarial, antimicrobial, imm...
