Glioblastoma, which is highly invasive and has a poor patient prognosis, is the most common type of brain tumor. Flavonoids have known antiproliferative and antineoplastic effects, such as apoptosis induction and tumor growth inhibition. We investigated the effects of treatment with three flavonoids
Nine new flavonoids, brosimacutins A-I (1-9), and four known flavonoids were isolated from the bark of Brosimum acutifolium, a Brazilian folk medicine ("Mururé"). Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic methods, including 2D NMR. Brosimacutins A-I possess differentially functionalized
Four new flavonoids, brosimacutins J-M (1 - 4), were isolated from the bark of Brosimum acutifolium Huber together with a known flavan, brosimine A (5). The structures of compounds 1-4 were elucidated by spectroscopic means. 27 constituents of this plant including compounds 1-5 were evaluated for
4'-Hydroxy-7,8-[2-(2-hydroxyisopropyl)dihydrofuran]flavan and 4',7-dihydroxy-8-(3,3-dimethylallyl)flavan, together with 10 known plant constituents, were obtained from the trunk bark of Brosimum acutifolium. Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic methods, including 2D NMR spectroscopic
Plant species are sources of active compounds that can fight and/or prevent damage caused by reactive oxygen species, which enables the development of natural products that can help to prevent premature aging caused by exposure to solar radiation. This study assessed the antioxidant and
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a major public health concern representing about 60% of S. aureus isolated from hospitalized patients in countries such as USA and Brazil in the last years. Additionally, the ability to adhere to surfaces and the development of biofilms are
