Two new oxygenated sterols, 3 beta,24(S)-dihydroxycholesta-5,25-dien-7-one (1) and 3 beta,25-dihydroxycholesta-5,23-dien-7-one (2), were isolated from the marine bryozoan Bugula neritina. Their chemical structures were established on the basis of spectroscopic analysis. Both compounds exhibited cytotoxicity to three human cancer cell lines (HepG2, HT-29 and NCI-H460), with IC50 values between 22.58 and 53.41 mu g mL(-1).
