Anticancer Activities of Marine-Derived Phenolic Compounds and Their Derivatives

Dario Matulja et al.

Summary: Marine organisms produce diverse secondary metabolites with various biological activities, including anticancer effects. Marine phenolic compounds and their derivatives have been studied for their potential anticancer activity. These compounds inhibit cancer cell proliferation or migration at sub-micromolar or nanomolar concentrations. They exert their anticancer effects through different mechanisms, such as apoptosis induction or inhibition of cell migration. Phenolic compounds like phlorotannins and bromophenols have been extensively studied and recognized for their protective effects against UVB or gamma radiation-induced skin damage. Phenolic metabolites can be classified into six main classes.
