Journal ArticleDOI

Essential oil analysis of 10 Piperaceae species from the Brazilian Atlantic forest

TL;DR: A great number of non-oxygenated monoterpenes and sesquiterpenes are derived from E,E-farnesyl-PP, suggesting a preference of these species to synthesize metabolites from this pathway.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antileishmanial activity of isolated triterpenoids from Pourouma guianensis

TL;DR: The results indicate that Pourouma guianensis contains many triterpenoids and some, such as ursolic and oleanolic acids, may serve as lead compounds for new antileishmanial drugs, but chemical modifications may be necessary to avoid unselective cytotoxicity.
Journal ArticleDOI

The anti-allergic activity of the acetate fraction of Schinus terebinthifolius leaves in IgE induced mice paw edema and pleurisy.

TL;DR: The anti-allergic effect of the ST fraction is demonstrated, which includes the inhibition of edema formation and histamine release caused by mast cell degranulation and eosinophil influx into the pleural cavity probably reflected by the decreased levels of chemokines in recovered pleural lavage fluid.
Journal ArticleDOI

Flavonoids as chemotaxonomic markers for Asteraceae.

TL;DR: Flavonoids have been shown to be good taxonomic markers for Asteraceae and some implications of flavonols, flavones and other types are discussed for tribes and subtribes of Asteraceae.
Journal ArticleDOI

More phloroglucinols from Hypericum brasiliense

TL;DR: Three new phloroglucinols have been isolated from a petrol extract of the leaves and flowers of Hypericum brasiliense by spectroscopic methods including two-dimensional-NMR heteronuclear correlations.
