“…In the course of our continuing search for bioactive natural products from plants, we recently published some reviews on crude plant extracts and plantderived compounds with potential antitumor activity against mammary (Moura et al, 2001), uterine cervical and ovarian neoplasia (Silva et al, 2003), antileishmanial activity (Rocha et al, 2005), HMG CoA reductase inhibitors (Gonçalves et al, 2000), central analgesic activity (Almeida et al, 2001), prevention of the osteoporosis (Pereira et al, 2002) and for the treatment of Parkinson's disease (Morais, 2003). In the present work we have reviewed the literature related with plants of the Brazil with anti-infl ammatory activity.…”

“…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).

“…Algumas enzimas foram recentemente isoladas ou estruturalmente determinadas como a APRT de Leishmania tarentolae 98 , na qual já estão sendo testados alguns produtos naturais 99 , e a DHODH de L. major 100 , cujo grupo também está realizando ensaios de inibição com produtos naturais, principalmente originados de fungos (dados não publicados dos autores). Extratos de plantas, fungos, proteínas originadas do veneno de cobra e produtos naturais ou sintéticos baseados em produtos naturais também estão sendo submetidos a ensaios leishmanicidas 101 , mas nada comparado aos dados obtidos no exterior 102 . Vale ressaltar que a falta de métodos rápidos, seguros e confiáveis na pesquisa de leishmanicidas tem sido um dos pontos críticos para se avaliar os produtos naturais isolados 103 .…”
