Estudo de alcalóides de Pilocarpus pennatifolius Lemaire

Abstract: Revista Brasileira de Farmacognosia 2002particularmente na última década, resultaram na queda de produtividade e do teor médio de pilocarpina 7 . A escassez das folhas de P. microphyllus e a queda do teor médio de pilocarpina tornam necessária a procura de espécies relacionadas, que possam substituir o P. microphyllus como matéria-prima na obtenção da pilocarpina.Uma das espécies botanicamente próxima a P. microphyllus é a P. pennatifoluis Lem. As suas folhas contêm pilocarpina e alcalóides secundários, entre … Show more

“…For P. microphyllus the alkaloid content of air dried leaves was said to be of roughly 1% (Pinheiro 1997) and the pilocarpine content of fresh leaves was below 0.03% (Sandhu et al 2006). The dried leaves of P. pennatifolius were reported to have 0.5% of alkaloids or 0.2% of pilocarpine (Lucio et al 2002). Total alkaloid contents was quite similar for the species analyzed, with significant differences in results (PB 0.05) found only between PmM and samples Ps, Pt, Pp, and Pj; the difference between Ps and Pr was also significant ( Table 1).…”

“…At high doses it is a stimulant of the parasympathetic system, similar to pilocarpine. However, its DL 50 is twice that of pilocarpine, indicating that it is less toxic (Lucio et al 2002). Other, non-imidazole, alkaloids have also been found in this genus and show hallucinogenic and antifungal activity (Santos and Moreno 2004).…”

“…Unfortunately, despite many essential oils have been extracted and analyzed, and a number of components identifi ed, little is know about their useful biological activities (Lahiou, 2004). Thus, chemical substances such as episesamin, hesperidin, pilocarpin, imidazole, 2-tridecadone, alpha-cadinol, spathulenol, eugenol, and classes of metabolites such as fl avonoids, terpenoids, coumarins, alkaloids and others have been described for different species of the genus Pilocarpus (Craveiro et al, 1979;Amaro Luis et al, 1990;Andrade-Neto et al, 1996Bertrand et al, 2001, Lúcio et al, 2002Santos et al, 2004) and deserve biological screening. Specially, volatile constituents of P. spicatus essential oil, such as aliphatic ketones have been recently described but, without data about their biological effects (Andrade-Neto et al, 2002).…”

“…O resultado mostra que a partes da faveleira, como os galhos e as raízes são boas fontes de alcalóides, compostos com inúmeras atividades biológicas e farmacológicas amplamente descritas na literatura. Vale ressaltar que a raiz da faveleira apresentou teor de alcalóides superior aos descritos por Lúcio et al (2002) em seu estudo utilizando Pilocarpus pennatifolius (com máximo de 0,53 %), reconhecida pela presença de diversos alcaloides, dentre eles a pilocarpina, utilizada no tratamento de glaucoma.…”

“…A determinação dos teores de Alcalóides totais (AT) foi realizada de acordo com Lúcio et al (2002) com modificações. Cinco gramas (g) de material vegetal (folhas, galhos e raiz) foram extraídos com diclorometano, com agitação por 24 horas.…”
