在海洋中描述的许多生物活性化合物中，只有一小部分因其生态意义而受到研究。同样，大多数化学介导的相互作用也没有得到很好的理解，因为所涉及的分子仍然没有被揭示。在南极洲，与热带或温带地区相比，这一知识差距甚至更为严重，尽管极地生物也是化学防御的多产者，而且据报道，南大洋也有与化学防御相关的产品。南极洲周围沿着极端和独特的海洋环境，以及海底生物群落中发生的许多不寻常的相互作用，预计将选择新的功能性次级代谢物。有一个迫切需要了解海洋衍生物质的进化作用一般，特别是在波兰，因为分子的基石意义是至关重要的物种生存，因此，在构建社区。在这里，我们提供了一个小型的审查已确定的海洋天然产品证明有一个生态功能，在南极生态系统。本报告概括了一些来自原始南极评论的参考书目，并更新了2009年至今该领域的新文献。
Out of the many bioactive compounds described from the oceans, only a small fraction have been studied for their ecological significance. Similarly, most chemically mediated interactions are not well understood, because the molecules involved remain unrevealed. In Antarctica, this gap in knowledge is even more acute in comparison to tropical or temperate regions, even though polar organisms are also prolific producers of chemical defenses, and pharmacologically relevant products are being reported from the Southern Ocean. The extreme and unique marine environments surrounding Antarctica along with the numerous unusual interactions taking place in benthic communities are expected to select for novel functional secondary metabolites. There is an urgent need to comprehend the evolutionary role of marine derived substances in general, and particularly at the Poles, since molecules of keystone significance are vital in species survival, and therefore, in structuring the communities. Here we provide a mini-review on the identified marine natural products proven to have an ecological function in Antarctic ecosystems. This report recapitulates some of the bibliography from original Antarctic reviews, and updates the new literature in the field from 2009 to the present.
