Abstract

Polyhydroxylated steroids and other metabolites were isolated from the soft coral Nephthea chabroli collected in South China Sea. The structures of two new compounds were determined to be 24-methylcholesta-9(11), 24(28)-diene-3β,12α,19-triol and 4α-methyl-3β,14β-dihydroxy-5α-ergost-24(28)-en-23-one on the basis of spectroscopic analysis. Cytotoxic activities of the polyhydroxylated sterols were evaluated on prostate carcinoma LNCaP cell line.
