Esteroles libres de la esponja marina Mycale laevis Free sterols from the marine sponge Mycale laevis

Abstract

RESUMEN: El desarrollo de las investigaciones en bioprospección marina requiere el fortalecimiento de los inventarios de organismos marinos, lo que implica una clasificación taxonómica exhaustiva de los mismos. La clasificación de las esponjas marinas es compleja desde el punto de vista morfológico y se facilita con el uso de información quimiotaxonómica basada en la composición de sus esteroles. El presente estudio describe la composición de esteroles libres de la esponja Mycale laevis, recolectada en la Bahía de Cispatá (Córdoba, Colombia). A partir del extracto metanólico de la esponja M. laevis, se obtiene el subextracto de diclorometano, que se fracciona mediante cromatografía en columna sobre sílica gel, eluyendo con mezclas de hexano-acetato de etilo con aumento gradual de la polaridad. La obtención de la fracción mayoritaria (Rf = 0.77, sílica gel/ hexano-acetato de etilo 1:1) y su análisis por cromatografía de gases acoplada a espectrometría de masas (CG-EM), permite la identificación de 9 esteroles monohidroxilados con núcleos esteroidales Δ0, Δ5 y Δ7. Los estanoles (núcleo Δ0) son los más abundantes en la fracción esterólica, con el 71.7 % del total de compuestos presentes. Estos resultados contribuyen a los estudios quimiotaxonómicos de esponjas marinas pertenecientes a la familia Mycalidae.

ABSTRACT: The development of marine bioprospection research requires to fortify of marine organisms inventories, which also implies their exhaustive taxonomic classification. From the morphological point of view, the classification of marine sponges is a complex procedure and it is facilitated with the use of chemotaxonomic information based on the composition of its sterols. This study describes the free sterols composition of the Mycale laevis sponge, collected in the Cispatá Bay (Córdoba, Colombia). The subextract of dichloromethane is obtained from the methanol extract of the sponge; this subextract is fractionated through chromatography in column on silica gel, using hexane-ethyl acetate mixtures with a gradual increase of the polarity as a mobile phase. The obtention of the majoritary fraction (Rf = 0.77, silica gel /hexane: ethyl acetate 1:1) and its analysis by means of gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (GC-MS), allows the identification of 9 monohydroxylated sterols with nuclei steroidal Δ0, Δ5 and Δ7 sterols. Stanols (nucleus Δ0 ) are the most abundant in the sterolic fraction with 71.7% of the total of the present compounds. These results contribute to chemotaxonomics studies marine sponges in the Mycalidae family.
