Welwitindolinones • Isolated from lipophilic extract of Hapalosiphon welwitschii W. & G.S - a blue-green algae (cyanobacteria) • Shows antifungal activity and reverses P-glycoprotein-mediated multiple-drug-resistance (MDR) ina vinblastine restane subline of a human ovarian adenocarcinoma line. • The lipophilic extract of Westiella intricata Borzi exhibits insecticidal activity against blowfly larvae. • Welwitindoline A isonitrile isolated from H. welwitschii accounts for fungicidal activity. • The MDR reversing and larvacidal activities are associated with N-Methylwelwitindolinone C isothiocyanate - major alkaloid in both algae. • 3-Hydroxywelwitindolinones and related ethers are isolated from terrestrial Fischerella muscicola (Thuret) Gomont and Fischerella major Gomont. • Except for welwitindolinone A all members of the family have common carbon framework with a characteristic bicyclo[4.3.1]decane ring system.
