Microorganisms are the dominating source of food and nutrition for sponges and play an important role in sponge structure, chemical defense, excretion and evolution. In recent years, plentiful secondary metabolites with novel structures and specific activities have been identified from sponge-associated microorganisms. Additionally, as the phenomenon of the drug resistance of pathogenic bacteria is becoming more and more common, it is urgent to discover new antimicrobial agents. In this paper, we reviewed 270 secondary metabolites with potential antimicrobial activity against a variety of pathogenic strains reported in the literature from 2012 to 2022. Among them, 68.5% were derived from fungi, 23.3% originated from actinomycetes, 3.7% were obtained from other bacteria and 4.4% were discovered using the co-culture method. The structures of these compounds include terpenoids (13%), polyketides (51.9%), alkaloids (17.4%), peptides (11.5%), glucosides (3.3%), etc. Significantly, there are 124 new compounds and 146 known compounds, 55 of which have antifungal activity in addition to antipathogenic bacteria. This review will provide a theoretical basis for the further development of antimicrobial drugs.
