The marine natural product (+)-spongistatin 1 is an extremely potent growth inhibitory agent having activity against a wide variety of cancer cell lines, while exhibiting low cytotoxicity against quiescent human fibroblasts. Consistent with a microtubule-targeting mechanism of action, (+)-spongistatin 1 causes mitotic arrest in DU145 human prostate cancer cells. More importantly, (+)-spongistatin 1 exhibits significant in vivo antitumor activity in the LOX-IMVI human melanoma xenograft model. (+)-Spongistatin 1 is, thus, an important class of microtubule targeting anticancer agent that warrants further investigation.
