Organismos marinhos como fonte de novos fármacos: histórico & perspectivas

Abstract: Recebido em 15/1/09; aceito em 11/3/09; publicado na web em 2/4/09 MARINE ORGANISMS AS A SOURCE OF NEW PHARMACEUTICALS: HISTORY AND PERSPECTIVES. Though sharing only a short part on the natural products timeline, the studies on marine products has already handed in four new drugs to the clinical arsenal and brought up a long and promising list of unique molecules to pre-clinical and clinical trials. Thus, as the available analytical resources improve and the interest of large pharmaceutical companies arises, m… Show more

“…Ziconotide (Prialt), a peptide originally isolated from the venom of Conus magus Linnaeus and an analogue of the N-type calcium channel blocker ω-conotoxin MVIIA, is used clinically for the treatment of patients suffering from chronic pain. Trabectedin (Yondelis), a tetrahydroisoquinoline alkaloid isolated from the ascidia Ecteinascidia turbinata Herdman, was approved by the UE for the treatment of advanced soft tissue sarcoma (Butler, 2008;Costa-Lotufo et al, 2009;Hill, 2011).…”

“…O elevado custo atribuído a terapêutica anticâncer e a não disponibilização de tratamento adequado, tem consumido parcelas significantes de recursos destinados aos sistemas públicos de saúde. A demanda das empresas farmacêuticas por recursos naturais como fonte de modelos para fármacos tem-se justificado pelos altos investimentos em P&D (pesquisa e desenvolvimento), visto que, menos de 2% das plantas superiores foram analisadas para detecção de constituintes com atividades antimicrobiana e antineoplásica (COSTA-LOTUFO et al, 2009;PAVARINI, 2000). Simultaneamente, é notado também o crescimento mundial da demanda por medicamentos à base de plantas nos países desenvolvidos como alternativa mais saudável, ou menos danosa, de tratamento e nos países em desenvolvimento, como resultante do não acesso aos medicamentos farmoquímicos (BRASIL, 2007).…”

“…Given the ever growing number of natural marine products discovered, researchers have recognized the promising potential of the sea for the chemistry of natural products. [1][2][3] Despite the obstacles to effective development of marine organism-derived pharmaceutical agents, the interest in marine organisms as a new drug source has increased in recent years. [4][5][6][7][8][9][10] Marine sponges are a prolific source of a huge variety of secondary metabolites.…”
