From Antarctic waters : Human anaplastic thyroid carcinoma (ATC) cells which stably express antisense construct against nuclear high‐mobility group A (HMGA) proteins were used in a novel phenotypic assay for screening marine natural extracts. The rational search led to the isolation and identification of a novel polyoxygenated linear lipid ( 1 ) that showed important and selective cytotoxicity against ATC‐derived tumor cell lines.
