Journal ArticleDOI
Recent advances in leishmaniasis treatment.
Tatiana Shioji Tiuman,Adriana Oliveira dos Santos,Tânia Ueda-Nakamura,Benedito Prado Dias Filho,Celso Vataru Nakamura +4 more
TL;DR: This review describes the arsenal available for treating Leishmania infections, as well as recent advances from research on plants and synthetic compounds as source drugs for treating the disease, and highlights some biopharmaceutical technologies in the design of the delivery strategy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antileishmanial activity of Eugenol-rich essential oil from Ocimum gratissimum.
Tânia Ueda-Nakamura,Ricardo R. Mendonça-Filho,José Andrés Morgado-Díaz,Paloma Korehisa Maza,Benedito Prado Dias Filho,Diógenes Aparício Garcia Cortez,Daniela S. Alviano,Maria do Socorro S. Rosa,Angela H. Lopes,Celuta S. Alviano,Celso Vataru Nakamura +10 more
TL;DR: The essential oil showed no cytototoxic effects against mammalian cells, suggesting that O. gratissimum essential oil and its compounds could be used as sources for new antileishmanial drugs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Potent antifungal activity of extracts and pure compound isolated from pomegranate peels and synergism with fluconazole against Candida albicans
Eliana Harue Endo,Diógenes Aparício Garcia Cortez,Tânia Ueda-Nakamura,Celso Vataru Nakamura,Benedito Prado Dias Filho +4 more
TL;DR: The combination of this agent with fluconazole represents an attractive prospect for the development of new management strategies for candidiasis, and should be investigated further in in vivo models.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antileishmanial Activity of Parthenolide, a Sesquiterpene Lactone Isolated from Tanacetum parthenium
Tatiana Shioji Tiuman,Tânia Ueda-Nakamura,Diógenes Aparício Garcia Cortez,Benedito Prado Dias Filho,José Andrés Morgado-Díaz,Wanderley de Souza,Celso Vataru Nakamura +6 more
TL;DR: The results provide new perspectives on the development of novel drugs with leishmanicidal activities obtained from natural products, including parthenolide, which is a sesquiterpene lactone purified from the hydroalcoholic extract of aerial parts of Tanacetum parthenium.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antimicrobial activity of Brazilian copaiba oils obtained from different species of the Copaifera genus
Adriana Oliveira dos Santos,Tânia Ueda-Nakamura,Benedito Prado Dias Filho,Valdir Florêncio da Veiga Junior,Angelo C. Pinto,Celso Vataru Nakamura +5 more
TL;DR: Transmission electron microscopy of S. aureus treated with resin oil from C. martii revealed disruption and damage to the cell wall, resulting in the release of cytoplasmic compounds, alterations in morphology, and a decrease in cell volume, indicating that copaiba oil may affect the cell walls.
