Piranhea trifoliata an Amazonian Plant with Therapeutic Action: A Review

Abstract: The use of medicinal plants reflects the reality of a part of human history. The Brazilian population with limited access to public health programs led to the development and conservation of ethnobotanical knowledge-rich information regarding medicinal plants. However, popular wisdom lacks systematization so that it can correctly use it. Herein we present the Piranhea trifoliata (family Picrondendraceae), an Amazonian plant with a wide variety of molecules with biological effects. The antimalarial effect was t… Show more

“…Initially, we performed a phytochemical profile to identify the prominent families of natural compounds present in the bark of P. trifoliata extracts. Studies demonstrate compounds with predominant biological activity in the leaves, and the articles with bark extracts were dedicated only to the antimalarial and antifungal effects (Vieira et al, 2021). Table 1 revealed the presence of phenols and 46.06 mg EAG/g quantified.…”

“…Radical stabilization is related to the ability of the aromatic ring of molecules to form stable radical substances, which reduce the risk of disease (Shen et al, 2022). Studies with P. trifoliata showed bioactive compounds such as triterpene with antimalarial, antibacterial, and antioxidant activities (Vieira et al, 2021).…”
