Six new sesquiterpene quinone/hydroquinone meroterpenoids, arenarialins A-F ( 1 - 6 ), were isolated from the marine sponge Dysidea arenaria collected from the South China Sea. Their chemical structures and absolute configurations were determined by HRMS and NMR data analyses coupled with DP4+ and ECD calculations. Arenarialin A ( 1 ) features an unprecedented tetracyclic 6/6/5/6 carbon skeleton, whereas arenarialins B-D ( 2 - 4 ) possess two rare secomeroterpene scaffolds. Arenarialins A-F showed inhibitory activity on the production of inflammatory cytokines TNF-α and IL-6 in LPS-induced RAW264.7 macrophages with arenarialin D regulating the NF-κB/MAPK signaling pathway.
