Tradescantia is a genus of herbaceous and perennial plants belonging to the Commelinaceae family and organized into three infrageneric classifications and 12 sections. More than 80 species within the genus have been used for centuries for medicinal purposes. Phytochemical compounds (from various species of the genus) such as coumarins, alkaloids, saponins, flavonoids, phenolics, tannins, steroids and terpenoids have recently been characterized and described with antioxidant, cytotoxic, anti-inflammatory, anticancer or antimicrobial properties. The objective of this review is to describe the different aspects of the genus Tradescantia, including its botanical characteristics, traditional uses, phytochemical composition, biological activities, and safety aspects.

“…However, only few studies have been conducted to evaluate the bioactivity of Tradescantia extracts (Table 5, Ref. [30,[32][33][34]37,39,43,[47][48][49][50][51][52][53][54]). The following subsections describe the main studies carried out on the evaluation of the bioactive properties of Tradescantia extracts.…”

“…The monitoring of the T. pallida 10% aqueous extracts effectiveness on P. xylostella evaluated and we verified potential for controlling the species. The literature presents the antimicrobial potential in gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria (Tan et al 2014), antioxidants (Silva et al 2015) and anticancer activities against cervical cancer cell lines (Li et al 2017), with positive results for tests performed with ethanolic and methanolic extracts. Through these results, we can also include ovipodeterrent and phagodeterrent action to this plant species.…”

Diamondback moth represents one of the major Brassicaceae plagues and the main current control method relies on the agrotoxins use. The search for alternative phytosanitary control methods demonstrates that the vegetal extracts have broadly studied and now represent a relevant option to control insects-plagues in small cultivation areas. Was evaluated the effect of the aqueous extract Tradescantia pallida 10% in oviposition and the feeding preference of Plutella xylostella, in laboratory conditions. That plant does not present herbivory reports, which raises the hypothesis of representing an efficient control alternative. P. xylostella couples introduced in experimentation cages for 10 days, to assess the activity of oviposition, being exposed to the botanic extract in the feeding and the oviposition substrate, with the eggs average number per day and fertility being assessed. To assess feeding, two tests developed: free choice and no choice of food source during 48 hours of evaluation. The results indicate that the aqueous T. pallida extract changes the oviposition activity of P. xylostella, reducing the average number of eggs per day and the fertility. It was also possible to observe the non-preference, regarding feeding, for substrates that were treated with the extract. The results observed in the study can contribute to amplify the small producers decision-making processes and the involved sectors regarding the choice of supplies that respect environmental and human health.

ObjectiveIn the present study, we green synthesized ZnO NPs (zinc oxide nanoparticles) from Senna occidentalis leaf extract which were subsequently assessed for their cytotoxic and antioxidant activity on colon cancer SW480 cell line.Results Zinc oxide nanoparticles were characterized by using UV-Vis spectroscopy, X-ray diffractometer (XRD), Particle size analyzer (PSA), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), Energy-dispersive X-ray (EDS) and atomic force microscope (AFM) analysis. The PSA, XRD and AFM showed 20-50 nm size and nearly cuboidal and irregular shaped of the ZnO NPs. The synthesized ZnO nanoparticles were evaluated for their anticancer activity on human colon cancer cell line (SW480) by using MTT and neutral red uptake assay. The SW480 colon cancer cells were treated with various concentrations of ZnO NPs in the range of 20–100 µg/ml for 2 hrs. The result showed that ZnO NPs could reduce cell viability of SW480 cells up to 50% at the concentration of 100 µg/ml and induce membrane leakage in a concentration dependent manner.ConclusionThe anticancer activity of zinc oxide nanoparticles has showed that these can be used as effective anti-cancer agent against colon cancer cell lines (SW480).
