Anti-inflammatory activity of alkaloids: a twenty-century review

Abstract: RESUMO: "Atividade anti-infl amatória de alkalóides: Uma revisão do século XX". Muitas substâncias que interferem na resposta infl amatória têm sido isoladas de plantas. Esta revisão mostra alguns alcalóides de origem vegetal que no período de 1907-2000 foram avaliados quanto a uma possível atividade anti-infl amatória. Os alcalóides foram classifi cados em subgrupos de acordo com suas estruturas químicas e os dados farmacológicos foram obtidos de diferentes modelos experimentais. Dos 171 alcalóides avaliados,… Show more

“…In the last years there has been a great scientifi c interest in chemical and pharmacological investigations regarding the biological properties of medicinal plants (Silva et al, 2003;Rocha et al, 2005;Barbosa-Filho et al, 2005;Barbosa-Filho et al, 2006a;Barbosa-Filho et al, 2006b;Barbosa-Filho et al, 2006c). It is known that medicinal plants have been source of many drugs applied in clinical procedures (e.g morphine, emetine, rutine).…”

“…Inibição da agregação plaquetária in vitro em amostras de sangue humano e de coelhos (Basila & Yuan, 2005), além de atividade antiinfl amatória (Backhouse et al, 1994;Barbosa-Filho et al, 2006), foi observada para os alcalóides boldina e secoboldina. Em estudos ex vivo com diafragma e nervo frênico, isolados de camundongos, Kang et al (1998) observaram que a boldina bloqueia a junção neuromuscular provavelmente por interação direta com o receptor nicotínico pós-sináptico da acetilcolina.…”

“…The 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline (THIQ) skeleton is an important structural motif commonly encountered in naturally-occurring alkaloids of vegetal origin with interesting biological/pharmacological properties, including inhibition of cell proliferation/anticancer activity [1], multiple cardiovascular activities related to different mechanisms of action [2][3][4], anti-inflammatory [5], antimicrobial [6,7], antiplasmodial activities [8,9] and acetylcholinesterase inhibitory effects [10,11]. A variety of THIQ derivatives has been found also in mammals, especially in human brain, suggesting a role of these molecules in neurons under physiological and pathological conditions [12].…”
