Excessive exposure to UVB radiation can lead to oxidative and inflammatory damage that compromises the cutaneous integrity. The application on the skin of photochemoprotective products is considered a relevant approach for the prevention of oxidative damage. In this study the in vitro and in vivo
The bioactivity-guided phytochemical investigation of the crude hydralcoholic extract of Nectandra megapotamica was carried out using the abdominal constriction test in mice, which led to the isolation of three active compounds: alpha-asarone (1), galgravin (2) and veraguensin (3). The crude extract
Background: Eugenol, a common phenylpropanoid derivative found in different plant species, has well-described anti-inflammatory effects associated with the development of occupational hypersensitive asthma. Dehydrodieugenol, a dimeric
The present study evaluated the effect of the crude extract of the leaves of Nectandra falcifolia (NEES) Castiglioni and its fractions in different experimental models of inflammation (paw edema, pleurisy, and ear edema). Carrageenan-induced edema of the paw and pleurisy were evaluated in Wistar
Background
Visceral leishmaniasis is a complex neglected tropical disease caused by
Leishmania donovani complex. Its current treatment reveals strong limitations, especially high toxicity. In this context, natural products are important sources of new drug alternatives for
OBJECTIVE
The intracellular redox state plays an important role in controlling inflammation. Clinical and laboratory data suggest that inflammation can lead to tumor progression. We hypothesized that restoring intracellular redox control would inhibit inflammation and subsequently tumor progression.
The anti-inflammatory potential of 26 neolignans (14 of the bicyclooctane-type and 12 of the benzofuran-type), isolated from three Lauraceae species (Pleurothyrium cinereum, Ocotea macrophylla and Nectandra amazonum), was evaluated in vitro through inhibition of COX-1, COX-2, 5-LOX and
Oral health influences general well-being and quality of life. Oral diseases can be debilitating and are a major heath concern worldwide. Medicinal plants have been used for thousands of years for treating human diseases. Considering the emergence of multi-drug resistant pathogens and financial
