• Abstract

  Marine sponges perform several services that contribute to the functioning and health of the benthic ecosystems. They also harbor diverse bacterial communities in which complex interactions are established and aid the host to grow and develop. The marine sponges are since 1970´s the main sources of biotechnological products and it is known that several of bioactive compounds obtained from…

• Abstract

  The marine sponges stand out among the marine organisms for being the group with the highest number of detected bioactive compounds. Several of these isolated compounds are actually synthesized by the bacterial community associated with these animals. For example, recent studies suggested that certain bioactive compounds obtained from marine sponges, such as polyketide complexes (PKS) and…

  Screening of compounds with anticancer activities produced by bacteria associated with marine sponges from São Paulo coast, BP.MS

• Abstract

  Marine sponges play a variety of roles that contribute to ecosystem functioning, such as food for some animals such as fish and turtles, while for others such as micro-crustaceans and polychaetes they provide a safety micro-habitat. The sponges act as "bioaccelerators" of the solid carbonate fragmentation process of rock and corals, releasing smaller fragments and fine sediments. They als…
