“…These findings corroborate that the reduced dose of exercise used in the current study, employing low volume and intensity (15 min; RPE = 12), contributes to an improved affective feeling in the AE + EO post-session stress and recovery (Fig 6). Finally, the interaction of the environment [13] or of the inhaled natural substance [6], besides modulating the mood [29] as observed in the current study regarding affective responses, also reduced the cardiovascular responses during recovery and under stress. The sample size may be considered as a main limitation of the study.…”

Introduction: It is necessary to investigate the interrelation between physical exercise and aromatherapy, regarding cardiovascular and affective functions of human. Thus, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of aerobic exercise (AE) and eucalyptus essential oil (EO) in cardiovascular and affective responses. Methods: Twelve adults (19-39 years) performed in a randomized order in different days: 1. AE session; 2. Inhalation of EO session; 3. AE + EO session and; 4. Control session. In each session remained at rest over 15min plus 5min to inhaling EO or blank air in Control session. The AE was 15 min run/walk at 80-85% of maximum heart rate. After recovery (30 min) the Cold Pressor Test (CPT) was applied. At rest, recovery and during CPT were measured cardiovascular and affective variables. Results: The variation of systolic blood pressure in the CPT was attenuated by AE + EO (12.3 ± 14.9 mmHg) and EO (12.6 ± 6.7 mmHg) compared to Control (17.3 ± 6.5 mmHg; P < 0.05). AE + EO increased pleasure in recovery (1′ = 1.2 ± 1.9 pts and 30′= 0.6 ± 1.1 pts) and reduced displeasure in stress (-3.4 ± 1.7 pts) when compared to Control in recovery (1′= -0.5 ± 1.4 pts and 30′= -0.7 ± 1.5 pts, respectively; P < 0.05) and stress (-4.6 ± 1.8 pts; P < 0.05). Conclusions: We conclude that aerobic exercise and eucalyptus essential oil attenuated cardiovascular responses and modulated the affect on recovery and stress.

“…Thus, natural essential oils extracted from plants can be used for medicinal purposes. Eucalyptus globulus is an example of a species that shows special participation of the monoterpenic oxide 1.8-cineole [6]. Eucalyptol (1.8-cineole) has been presented as a cardiovascular system modulator acting on the cardiac inotropism of rats [7,8].…”

“…The hydrophobic nature of eugenol, eucalyptol, terpinen-4-ol, and camphor enables them to react with the lipids of the cell membrane and mitochondria, rendering them permeable and leading to leakage of cell components (3). They are considered useful agents for the prevention of diseases (4)(5)(6)(7)(8)(9). Many studies have shown that phytochemicals in plant essential oils display antioxidant activity as a result of their capacity to scavenge free radicals (10)(11)(12).…”

Eugenol, eucalyptol, and camphor, used as flavor agents in cosmetic and food products, have both prooxidant and antioxidant activities. To clarify the mechanisms of their cytotoxic effect and the factors affecting their antioxidant/prooxidant activities, we investigated cell membrane and DNA damage/protective effects induced by eugenol, eucalyptol, terpinen-4-ol, and camphor in parental and drug-resistant human lung cancer cell lines. The parental cells were found approximately 3, 6, and 8 times more sensitive to camphor cytotoxicity than drug-resistant cells at 24, 48, and 72 h respectively. The cytotoxic activity for both cell types was found to be in the order of camphor, eugenol, terpinen-4-ol, and eucalyptol, depending on their concentrations. Malondialdehyde and 8-hydroxy deoxyguanosine levels were also increased as a result of membrane and DNA damage in both cell lines exposed to the highest concentration of these test components. On the other hand, eugenol, eucalyptol, terpinen-4-ol, and camphor protected the cells against H 2 O 2 -induced cytotoxicity, membrane damage, and DNA damage when the cells were incubated with these test components at lower concentrations (< IC 50 ) before H 2 O 2 treatment. These findings suggest that eugenol, eucalyptol, terpinen-4-ol, and camphor exhibit membrane and DNA protective/damaging effects changing in a manner dependent upon concentration, cell type, and time.

“…& Panero (= Viguiera grandiflora) is widely distributed in open areas from the Cerrado, the second largest plant formation in Brazil, and can be found in different geographic regions such as North (Amazonas state), Northeast (Bahia), Midwest (Distritio Federal, Goiás, Mato Grosso do Sul and Mato Grosso states), Southeast (Minas Gerais), and South (Paraná). This species stands out in Aldama genus because, in addition to its wide distribution, it has resiniferous potential (Magenta and Pirani, 2014) and high yield of essential oils (data not published), with several compounds having proven biological activity (Leite et al, 2007;Canales et al, 2008;Santos et al, 2011). This species is characterized by intraspecific structural variations and high degree of polymorphisms in color and shape of the leaf blade since its representatives are tolerant to different light intensities (Magenta and Pirani, 2014).…”

Can climate and soil conditions change the morpho-anatomy among individuals from different localities? A case study in Aldama grandiflora (Asteraceae)

Vegetative aerial organs are considerably more exposed to environmental conditions and can reflect the specific adaptations of plants to their local environment. Aldama grandiflora species are known to be widely distributed in Brazil; therefore, individuals from different populations of this species are thought to be exposed to different abiotic and biotic conditions. Several anatomical studies conducted on Brazilian Aldama species have mainly focused on the qualitative anatomical characters or traits of these species, but not on their quantitative traits. In this study, we evaluated whether climate and soil conditions can change the morphometry among individuals of A. grandiflora collected from six sites in the Goiás State, Brazil, by assessing their anatomical characters. Further, soil sampling was performed, and climate data were collected from all the six sites. The analysis indicated few statistical differences among the populations evaluated, showing that A. grandiflora presented consistent leaf and stem anatomical characteristics. The small morpho-anatomical differences found among individuals of the different populations evaluated, reflected the soil conditions in which these populations were grown. Therefore, environmental factors have a significant influence on the morpho-anatomy of Aldama grandiflora.Keywords: cerrado, Compositae, morphometry, phenotypic plasticity, leaf anatomy. Condições climáticas e de solo podem alterar a morfo-anatomia entre indivíduos de diferentes localidades? Um estudo de caso emAldama grandiflora (Asteraceae) ResumoOs órgãos vegetativos aéreos estão consideravelmente mais expostos às condições ambientais e podem refletir as adaptações específicas das plantas ao seu habitat. A espécie Aldama grandiflora é amplamente distribuída no Brasil e, dessa forma, indivíduos de diferentes populações podem estar expostos a diferentes condições ambientais. Vários estudos anatômicos realizados com espécies brasileiras do gênero Aldama têm abordado, principalmente, as características anatômicas qualitativas dessas espécies, mas não em suas características quantitativas. Neste estudo avaliamos se as condições climáticas e do solo podem alterar a morfometria entre os indivíduos de A. grandiflora coletados em seis populações do Estado de Goiás. Foram avaliados os caracteres anatômicos foliares e caulinares, além da amostragem do solo e coleta de dados climáticos, para os seis locais. A análise indicou algumas diferenças estatísticas entre as populações avaliadas, mostrando que A. grandiflora apresentou características anatômicas foliares e caulinares bastante consistentes.As pequenas diferenças morfo-anatômicas encontradas entre indivíduos das diferentes populações avaliadas, refletiram as condições do solo nos quais essas populações se desenvolveram. Assim sendo, fatores ambientais relacionados ao clima e condições do solo têm uma influência significativa sobre a morfo-anatomia de Aldama grandiflora.
