Three new cembranoid-type diterpenes from Red Sea soft coral Sarcophyton glaucum: Isolation and antiproliferative activity against HepG2 cells

Three new cembranoids (1-3) were isolated from Sarcophyton glaucum > Compounds 1-4 showed potent activities to HepG2 and PC-3> The antiproliferative activity of 1, 3 and 4 can be attributed at least partly to their ability to induce cellular apoptosis.
