• cyclic depsipeptide is sansalvamide A (San A, Figure 1) [20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29], which was isolated from a marine fungus (Fusarium spp.) [20] and exhibits antitumor activity against multiple cancer cell lines. It is cytotoxic against colon (HCT-116) [20][23][25][26], pancreatic (S2-013
