First secondary metabolites From -β-D-glucopyranoside, 3,5,7,4'-tetrahydroxyflavone (kaempferol), 3,5,7,3',4'-pentahydroxyflavone (quercetin), unpublished in the genus Herissantia, besides β-sitosterol, kaempferol 3-O-β-D-(6''-Ep-coumaroil) (tiliroside) glucopyranoside and kaempferol 3,7-di-O-α-L-ramnopyranoside (lespedin), described for the first time in the species. The structural determination of the compounds was made by means of spectroscopy methods such as Infrared Spectroscopy, 1 H and 13 C Nuclear Magnetic Resonance, with the aid of two dimensional techniques, and by comparison with literature data. The toxicity activity of the MeOH extract and lespedin on Artemia salina Leach. was also carried out.
RESUMO: "Atividade biológica da Herissantia crispa (L.) Brizicky". O extrato metanólico bruto (EMeOH) das partes aéreas da Herissantia crispa (L.) Brizicky, planta rica em flavonóides e que não possui estudos farmacológicos, foi testada para avaliar sua atividade sob os parâmetros comportamentais e determinar a dose letal 50 (DL 50 ) em camundongos; atividade antimicrobiana e antiulcerogênica. O EMeOH (5000 mg/kg, v.o. ou 2000 mg/kg i.p.) não alterou os parâmetros comportamentais e não causou mortes nos animais. A amostra vegetal em estudo inibiu o crescimento bacteriano. O EMeOH (750 mg/kg) apresentou atividade anti-diarréica. O EMeOH (250, 500 e 750 mg/kg) foi capaz de inibir as lesões gástricas induzidas pelo 0,3 M HCl/etanol 60% em camundongos. Desta forma, pode-se concluir que a planta em estudo apresenta atividade antiulcerogênica, entretanto, se faz necessário avaliar tal atividade através de modelos mais específicos e estudar o mecanismo de ação pelo qual a amostra vegetal protege a mucosa gástrica.Unitermos: Herissantia crispa, Malvaecae, avaliação comportamental, atividade antibacteriana, atividade antiulcerogênica. ABSTRACT:The crude methanol extract (EMeOH) of the aerial parts of Herissantia crispa (L.) Brizicky, plant riches in flavonoids and without pharmacological studies, was tested to value its activity under the behaviour parameters and to determine the lethal dose (LD 50 ) in mice; antimicrobial and antiulcerogenic activities. The EMeOH (5,000 mg/kg, v.o. or 2,000 mg/kg i.p.) did not alter the behaviour parameters and there were not mice deaths. The extract inhibited the bacterial growth. The EMeOH (750 mg/kg) showed anti-diarroeal activity. The EMeOH (250, 500 and 750 mg/kg) decreased the gastric lesions induced by 0.3 M HCl/ethanol 60% in mice. In conclusion, the EMeOH presents anti-ulcerogenic activity;, however it is necessary to value the antiulcerogenic activity in more specific models and to study the action mechanism by which the vegetable sample protects the gastric mucosa.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
