Some species of the genus Miconia are used in Brazilian folk medicine as analgesic and anti-inflammatory; however, several species of this genus are still poorly studied. Therefore, the aims of this study were to investigate the phytochemistry characterization by UPLC-DAD-QTOF-MS/MS, acute toxicity,
The genus Miconia comprises approximately 1000 species belonging to the Melastomataceae family. Several crude plant extracts from Miconia and their isolated compounds have shown biological activities, such as analgesic and anti-neoplastic action; however, no studies concerning their effects on DNA
Bioactivity-directed fractionation of an EtOAc extract from the leaves of Miconia lepidota afforded the two benzoquinones 2-methoxy-6-heptyl-1,4-benzoquinone (1) and 2-methoxy-6-pentyl-1,4-benzoquinone (primin) (2). This is the first reported isolation of 1. Both quinones 1 and 2 exhibited activity
