Avaliação das atividades antibacteriana, tripanocida e citotóxica do extrato hidroalcóolico das raízes de Tradescantia sillamontana Matuda (Veludo Branco) (Commelinaceae)

Abstract: RESUMO:O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar o efeito antibacteriano e tripanocida in vitro do extrato hidroalcóolico das raízes de Tradescantia sillamontana Matuda (Commelinaceae), conhecida popularmente como veludo branco. Foi avaliada a atividade antibacteriana in vitro frente às bactérias Streptococcus mitis (CIM = 100 µg/mL; CMB = 150 µg/mL), Streptococcus mutans (CIM = 200 µg/mL; CMB = 220 µg/mL), Streptococcus sanguinis (CIM = 400 µg/mL; CMB = 425 µg/mL), Streptococcus sobrinus (CIM = 400 µg/mL; CMB = 420… Show more

“…These new therapeutic targets appear to have great relevance and may serve as possible solutions for the development of new trypanocides. In short, this reflects the importance of assessing larval secretion in a non-tumoral lineage such as fibroblasts, because we detected little or no toxicity, in line with the evaluation of the activity of the extract of the root of Commelinaceae, which showed important trypanocidal activity, though against fibroblasts it presented moderate cytotoxicity, suggesting that the secretions may be well tolerated by host cells (Estevam et al, 2016).…”

“…In this sense, it is imperative that studies are conducted to evaluate the benefits that herbal medicines can provide. However, it is observed that certain species of plants have in their chemical composition substances that can be considered potentially harmful when not used correctly [39].…”

“…Justifica-se a execução deste ensaio uma vez que se comprova a eficácia da amostra contra os parasitas sem que a mesma esteja lisando as células sadias ao mesmo tempo em que lisa os parasitas. As culturas de células de fibroblasto de mamífero LLCMK 2 foram tratadas com o óleo essencial nas concentrações de 6,25, 12,5, 25, A moderada citotoxicidade exibida pelo óleo essencial das flores frescas de E. klotzschiana frente a fibroblastos da linhagem LLCMK 2 é um indicador de que este óleo essencial pode ser bem tolerado frente ao sistema biológico, 37 entretanto, ainda são necessários estudos adicionais que avaliem sua toxicidade in vivo.…”
