Drugs from the Sea
Drugs from the Sea is a collection of works (chapters) edited by Nobuhiro Fusetani, covering the discovery, development, and production of drug compounds derived from marine organisms. It includes studies on marine bacteria, fungi, microalgae, sponges, and opisthobranch mollusks. Notable content includes: a painkilling drug from sea snail venom; an anticancer drug first isolated from a sponge; potentially anti‑osteoporotic compounds of hexacoral origin; challenges of supply addressed through fermentation and aquaculture; symbiotic bacteria in sponges producing bioactive substances; and the chemistry, biology, supply, and delivery of marine‑derived compounds like the halichondrins
