Three polyprenyl-1′,4′-hydroquinone derivatives, heptaprenyl-1′,4′-hydroquinone (1), octaprenyl-1′,4′-hydroquinone (2), and hydroxyoctaprenyl-1′,4′-hydroquinone (3) were isolated from the marine sponge Sarcotragus spinosulus collected at Baia di Porto Conte, Alghero (Italy). Our findings indicate that the compounds isolated from S. spinosulus can significantly modulate the release of glutamate and acetylcholine in the rat hippocampus and cortex and might, therefore, represent the prototype of a new class of drugs regulating glutamatergic and cholinergic transmission in the mammalian central nervous system.

Capsaicin is the major ingredient in hot peppers of the plantCapsicum genuswith neuroprotective effects in several preclinical models; its effect on glutamate release has been investigated in the rat hippocampus using isolated nerve terminals (synaptosomes) and brain slices.
