title: Marine soft corals of the genus Pseudopterogorgia: a resource for novel anti-inflammatory diterpenoids.
abstract: This paper is a brief review of the diterpenoid chemistry of gorgonian corals of the genus Pseudopterogorgia. Previously described compounds and several new diterpenoids are presented in the context of their potential utilization in the development of anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs.
