Compounds produced by marine invertebrate organisms and their associated microorganisms that thrive successfully in five unique types of marine ecosystems are presented here as promising candidates for drug development. Marine organisms have evolved these chemicals to mediate specific biological and ecological interactions for their growth, development, defense and survival.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:20%\">\n<h6 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"keywords\"><em>Keywords:<\/em><\/h6>\n\n\n<div class=\"taxonomy-post_tag wp-block-post-terms\"><a href=\"https:\/\/transactions.nast.ph\/?tag=eco-bio-chemo-diversity\" rel=\"tag\">eco-bio-chemo-diversity<\/a><span class=\"wp-block-post-terms__separator\">, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/transactions.nast.ph\/?tag=marine-drug-discovery\" rel=\"tag\">marine drug discovery<\/a><span class=\"wp-block-post-terms__separator\">, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/transactions.nast.ph\/?tag=philippine-blue-economy\" rel=\"tag\">Philippine blue economy<\/a><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><em>*Corresponding author: gpconcepcion@up.edu.ph<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div data-wp-interactive=\"core\/file\" class=\"wp-block-file\"><object data-wp-bind--hidden=\"!state.hasPdfPreview\"  class=\"wp-block-file__embed\" data=\"https:\/\/transactions.nast.ph\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/2017_Plenary_Paper_Concepcion_GP_5.pdf\" type=\"application\/pdf\" style=\"width:100%;height:1090px\" aria-label=\"Embed of Embed of 2017_Plenary_Paper_Concepcion_GP_5..\"><\/object><a id=\"wp-block-file--media-379cb15c-b215-41a2-a802-58c4b9544ffa\" href=\"https:\/\/transactions.nast.ph\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/2017_Plenary_Paper_Concepcion_GP_5.pdf\">2017_Plenary_Paper_Concepcion_GP_5<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/transactions.nast.ph\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/2017_Plenary_Paper_Concepcion_GP_5.pdf\" class=\"wp-block-file__button\" download aria-describedby=\"wp-block-file--media-379cb15c-b215-41a2-a802-58c4b9544ffa\">Download<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gisela P.
