Glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3) inhibitory activity and structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies of the manzamine alkaloids. Potential for Alzheimer's disease.
Manzamine A and related derivatives isolated from a common Indonesian sponge, Acanthostrongylophora, have been identified as a new class of GSK-3beta inhibitors. The semisynthesis of new analogues and the first structure-activity relationship studies with GSK-3beta are also reported. Moreover, manzamine A proved to be effective in decreasing tau hyperphosphorylation in human neuroblastoma cell lines, a demonstration of its ability to enter cells and interfere with tau pathology. Inhibition studies of manzamine A against a selected panel of five different kinases related to GSK-3beta, specifically CDK-1, PKA, CDK-5, MAPK, and GSK-3alpha, show the specific inhibition of manzamine A on GSK-3beta and CDK-5, the two kinases involved in tau pathological hyperphosphorylation. These results suggest that manzamine A constitutes a promising scaffold from which more potent and selective GSK-3 inhibitors could be designed as potential therapeutic agents for Alzheimer's disease.

Manzamine B and E and ircinal A related alkaloids from an Indonesian Acanthostrongylophora sponge and their activity against infectious, tropical parasitic, and Alzheimer's diseases.
Four new manzamine-type alkaloids, 12,28-oxamanzamine E (2), 12,34-oxa-6-hydroxymanzamine E (3), 8-hydroxymanzamine B (5), and 12,28-oxaircinal A (11), were isolated from three collections of an Indonesian sponge of the genus Acanthostrongylophora together with 13 known manzamine alkaloids, ircinal A, ircinol A, xestomanzamine A, manzamines A, E, F, J, and Y, manadomanzamines A and B, neo-kauluamine, 8-hydroxymanzamine A, and manzamine A N-oxide. The structures of the new compounds were elucidated by means of 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopic methods. Three of these compounds (2, 3, and 11) possess a unique manzamine-type aminal ring system generated through an ether linkage between carbons 12-28 or between carbons 12-34. In the case of manzamine B and related metabolites, carbons 11 and 12 of the typical manzamine structure have an epoxide group and add to our growing understanding of manzamine structure-activity relationships (SAR) and metabolism. The bioactivity and SAR for a number of previously reported manzamine-related metabolites against malaria, leishmania, tuberculosis, and HIV-1 are also presented. Manzamine Y (9) showed significant inhibitory activity of GSK3, an enzyme implicated in Alzheimer's disease pathology. The toxicity of manzamine A and neo-kauluamine was evaluated against both medaka fry and eggs.
