The decoction of the local plant Baccharis grisebachii is used as a digestive, gastroprotective, external cicatrizing agent and antiseptic in Argentine. A lyophilized decoction (BLD) from the aerial parts of this plant was evaluated regarding its anti-ulcer, antioxidant and cytotoxic
The aerial parts of Baccharis dracunculifolia (BdE) is used in the Brazilian folk medicine to treat inflammatory conditions. Here we examined the ability of free and liposomal BdE to modulate reactive oxygen species generation in human neutrophils in vitro and zymosan-induced acute joint
A phytochemical study was performed on three native plant species from the central-western zone of Argentina: Buddleja cordobensis Grisebach, Baccharis salicina Torr. & A. Gray and Nepeta cataria L. We could obtain verbascoside (1) from B. cordobensis. From
The present study assessed the possible antinociceptive action of the hydroalcoholic extract, fractions and pure compounds obtained from the aerial parts of Baccharis illinita DC (Asteraceae) in behavioural models of chemical nociception in mice. The hydroalcoholic extract and fractions (hexane and
Three new labdane diterpenes, gaudichaudols A-C [1-3], a new clerodane diterpenoid, gaudichaudone [4], and the known clerodane, articulin acetate [5] have been isolated from the aerial parts of Baccharis gaudichaudiana, together with the known compounds, apigenin, hispidulin, spathulenol, and
Paracoccidioidomycosis is a prevalent systemic mycosis in Latin America which requires prolonged treatment with highly toxic antifungals. Baccharis dracunculifolia is a medicinal plant in Brazil that is a candidate in the search for new drugs. Fractions of the hexanic extracts were obtained using
Hexanic, dichloromethanic, ethanolic and aqueous extracts from Baccharis obtusifolia HBK, Baccharis latifolia (R. et P.) Pers., Baccharis pentlandii D.C. and Baccharis subulata Wedd., plants used in the traditional medicine of South America have been studied for their in vitro anti-inflammatory
The aim of this study was to investigate the cytotoxic activity of the essential oil from cladodes of Bacharis milleflora in relation to Jurkat, Raji and HL-60 cells, as well as exploring the cell mechanisms in order to elucidate how the cytotoxic process occurs. The presence of the following
Baccharis trimera is used in folk medicine as a tea for digestive and liver diseases. It possesses anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties that are related to the presence of phenolic compounds. The aim of this work was to investigate the anti-proliferative properties of phenolic (PHE) and
This study evaluated the antiproliferative activity of the Brazilian green propolis and Baccharis dracunculifolia extracts and their major compounds artepillin C and baccharin in different tumor cell lines. The lowest IC50 values observed for Brazilian green propolis and B. dracunculifolia extracts
Some species of the Baccharis genus have been shown to possess important biomedical properties, including cytotoxic activity. In this study, we examined the cytotoxic effect of methanol extract from Baccharis obtusifolia (Asteraceae) in cancer cell lines of prostate (PC-3), colon (RKO), astrocytoma
The in vitro antioxidant and cytotoxic activities in different extracts of Baccharis coridifolia DC. (Compositae) were studied using different bioassays. Antioxidant activity was tested using hydroperoxide-initiated chemiluminescence (CL) in rat liver homogenates. The aqueous extract showed
Artepillin C is the main compound present in propolis from Baccharis dracunculifolia, whose antitumor activity has been the focus of many studies. Herein, we shall investigate the Artepillin C mechanisms of action against cells derived from the oropharyngeal carcinoma (HEp-2). Cytotoxicity tests
Eight crude extracts from seven Argentine plants with cancer-related ethnobotanical uses have been subjected to a bioscreening study to detect cytotoxic activity. The plants studied were: Aristolochia triangularis, Baccharis grisebachii, Bolax gummifera, Eupatorium hecatanthum, Erythrina
