Over the last 20 years, the pharmaceutical industry has seen a decrease in discovery and success based on computational and combinatorial chemistry, and an increase in base costs imposed by increasing regulatory requirements and a higher rate of failures during the development process1. Couple this to the potential of structural, hence intellectual property overlap between libraries of synthetic compounds and the need for low-cost, scalable and chemically unique new scaffolds, the pharmaceutical industry is starting to re-evaluate the potential of natural products to provide the industry with new drug leads.

Due to the importance of nature as a source of new drug candidates, the purpose of this article is to emphasize the marine natural products, which exhibit antitubercular activity, published between January 2000 and May 2016, with 138 quotations to 250 compounds obtained from marine resources. These metabolites are organized by chemical constitution and named as simple alkyl lipids derivatives, aromatics derivatives, peptides, alkaloids, terpenoids, steroids, macrolides, and polycyclic polyketides.
