Amurensis

Korotchenko and coworkers detected PG-like compounds in five starfish from the Sea of Japan Asterias amurensis, Distolasterias nippon, Evasterias r. tabulata, Lysastrosoma anthosticta, and Patina pectinifera [189]. Perry and Epel showed that Pisaster ochraceous homogenates were able to oxidize AA [190]. Early studies on oocyte maturation in starfish suggested that HETE s might play a role [195]. Two compounds, 12- and 15-HETE, were able to induce oocyte maturation. Subsequent work showed that the activity was actually due to 8-HETE (33), which was a minor contaminant of both HETE preparations [196]. The 8R enantiomer of this compound (33) and 8R-HEPE (32) were also isolated from the aqueous extracts of Patiria miniata from the Gulf of California [197],...

Desoxocamoensidine was isolated from Maackia amurensis Rupr. and Maxim. (187). The structure of the alkaloid (164) was established by its identity with the product obtained from camoensidine (159) with LAH (Scheme 28).
