Extracts of samples of a Caribbean tunicate [Trididemnum sp.] (ascidian, sea squirt) of the family Didemnidae inhibit in vitro at low concentrations the growth of DNA and RNA viruses [herpes simplex types 1 and 2, influenza, parainfluenza, Coxsackie A-21 and equine rhinovirus] as well as L1210 leukemic [mouse] cells. The active compounds isolated from the tunicate, didemnins A, B and C, are depsipeptides, and didemnin B (a derivative of didemnin A) is the component active at the lowest concentration in inhibiting viral replication in vitro and P388 leukemia [mouse] in vivo.
