A New Cyclic Hexapeptide and a New Isocoumarin Derivative from the Marine Sponge-Associated Fungus Aspergillus similanensis KUFA 0013
Chadaporn Prompanya,Carla Fernandes,Sara Cravo,Madalena Pinto,Tida Dethoup,Artur M. S. Silva,Anake Kijjoa +6 more
TL;DR: Only compound 2 exhibited weak activity against the three cancer cell lines, and neither of them showed antibacterial activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dihydroxyxanthones prenylated derivatives: synthesis, structure elucidation, and growth inhibitory activity on human tumor cell lines with improvement of selectivity for MCF-7.
Raquel A. P. Castanheiro,Madalena Pinto,Artur M. S. Silva,Sara Cravo,Luís Gales,Luís Gales,Ana M. Damas,Ana M. Damas,Nair Nazareth,Maria São José Nascimento,Graham Eaton +10 more
TL;DR: The synthesis, structure elucidation, and antitumor activity of 11 xanthones are reported, being the compounds 3, 4, 6-8, and 9 described for the first time, with effect on the in vitro growth of four human tumor cell lines.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fluoroquinolones biosorption onto microbial biomass: activated sludge and aerobic granular sludge
Vanessa Ferreira,Catarina L. Amorim,Sara Cravo,Maria Elizabeth Tiritan,Paula M. L. Castro,Carlos A. M. Afonso +5 more
TL;DR: The data from biosorption/desorption from AGS may be useful for management and operation of AGS bioreactors, and the effect of change of pH on the biosorbed FQs was evaluated.
Journal ArticleDOI
From Natural Products to New Synthetic Small Molecules: A Journey through the World of Xanthones.
Madalena Pinto,Andreia Palmeira,Carla Fernandes,Diana I. S. P. Resende,Emília Sousa,Honorina Cidade,Maria Elizabeth Tiritan,Marta Correia-da-Silva,Sara Cravo +8 more
TL;DR: A review of the contributions of the corresponding author (M.M.P.) and her research group to Medicinal Chemistry concerning the isolation from plant and marine sources of xanthone derivatives as well as their synthesis, biological/pharmacological activities, formulation and analytical applications is presented in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enantiomeric Resolution and Docking Studies of Chiral Xanthonic Derivatives on Chirobiotic Columns
Ye' Zaw Phyo,Sara Cravo,Andreia Palmeira,Maria Elizabeth Tiritan,Anake Kijjoa,Madalena Pinto,Carla Fernandes +6 more
TL;DR: Considering the importance of understanding the chiral recognition mechanisms associated with the chromatographic enantioresolution, and the scarce data available for macrocyclic glycopeptide-based columns, computational studies by molecular docking were also carried out.
