Previously, we reported that 3, 4-oxo-isopropylidene-shikimic acid (ISA) has therapeutic potential in experimental colitis in rats. This study aimed to elucidate the potential mechanisms of ISA on the inflammatory response in rats with 2, 4, 6-trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid-induced colitis. After the
The antileishmanial and immunomodulatory potencies of a series of 28 polyphenols were evaluated in terms of extra- and intracellular leishmanicidal activity and macrophage activation for release of nitric oxide (NO), tumour necrosis factor (TNF) and interferon (IFN)-like properties. For this,
Bone homeostasis is associated with the balance between bone-resorbing osteoclasts and bone-forming osteoblasts. Unbalanced bone homeostasis as a result of reduced osteogenesis or excessive osteoclastogenesis can lead to disorders such as osteoporosis, Paget's disease, and rheumatoid Abnormal reduction of extracellular matrix (ECM), including type II collagen and aggrecan, caused by tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) is an important pathological feature of osteoarthritis (OA). Shikimic acid (SA), derived from natural plants, has displayed effective pharmacological properties in
In Brazil, the expansion of agricultural activity and the associated indiscriminate use of herbicides such as glyphosate is directly related to the loss of biodiversity in the Cerrado. The identification of plant species as bioindicators of herbicide action, especially species native to the area,
