hancornia speciosa/抗氧化剂

Given the economic importance of fruit processing, this study aimed to analyze the chemical composition, antioxidant activity, and sensorial acceptance of six fruit pulps from the Brazilian Cerrado. For bioactive compounds of the selected fruits, buriti contains the highest carotenoid content (2.85

This study characterized the phenolic profile in siriguela, umbu-cajá and mangaba, as well in their frozen pulps (FPs). The bioaccessibility of phenolic compounds and the antioxidant activity of the FP dialysates were determined following exposure to simulated gastrointestinal conditions. The

Hancornia speciosa Gomes (Apocynaceae) is a fruit tree, popularly known as mangabeira, and it is widely distributed throughout Brazil. Several parts of the plant are used in folk medicine, and the leaf and bark extracts have anti-inflammatory, antihypertensive, antidiabetic, and antimicrobial

The vasodilator effect of the ethanolic extract of Mansoa hirsuta leaves (EEF) was assayed in rat aortic rings. EEF produced a concentration-dependent vasodilatation (pIC(50)=5.1+/-0.2), which was absent in endothelium-denuded vessels. The vasodilator effect of EEF was similar to a standardized

The Hancornia speciosa latex reveals angiogenic, osteogenic, and anti-inflammatory properties, which present its potential for developing of wound healing drugs; however, the latex compounds responsible for angiogenesis remain unknown. One strategy to screen these active compounds is evaluation of

Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide. Cancer chemoprevention is one of the promising strategies to decrease its incidence and both plant extracts and natural products may constitute sources of new chemoprevention agents. Some Brazilian species popularly used to treat inflammatory conditions

Hancornia speciosa Gomes is a fruit tree, commonly known as the mangaba tree, which is widespread throughout Brazil. The leaves of this plant are used in traditional medicine for medicinal purposes. Thus, the objective of this study was to perform a physicochemical characterization, identify the

Hancornia speciosa Gomes (Apocynaceae) is a Brazilian plant traditionally employed to treat inflammatory conditions, among other uses. The chemopreventive effect of an ethanol extract from H. speciosa leaves (EHS) was evaluated in a battery of in vitro tests [inhibition of aromatase, NF-kappaB and

Scorpionism represents a serious public health problem due to its increasing incidence. In Brazil, Tityus serrulatus is a species of major medical importance, especially in children and the elderly, as envenomation may induce serious acute pulmonary edema. "Mangaba" (Hancornia speciosa

BACKGROUND Mangaba (Hancornia speciosa Gomez) is a medicinal plant frequently cited in ethnopharmacological inventories of the central region of Brazil against gastrointestinal disorders such as diarrhoea, ulcer, gastritis and stomach ache. OBJECTIVE The hydroalcoholic extract (HE) and infusion (BI)

Alzheimer's disease (AD) has been linked with oxidative stress, acetylcholine deficiency in the brain, and inflammatory processes. In the northeast region of Brazil, various plants are used to treat several diseases associated with these processes; then an antioxidant test was performed with those
