Eugenia punicifolia and E. aurata (Myrtaceae) are traditional medicinal plants of the Brazilian Cerrado. From a collaborative work, our group published the antinociceptive, anti-inflammatory and gastroprotective activities from E. punicifolia hydroethanolic extracts (EtOH: 70% v / v H2O). Another work done in collaboration, from the same leaf extract, showed that E. punicifolia and E. aur…
The exopolysaccharides (EPS) produced by the fungus Lasiodiplodia theobromae have interesting pharmacological applications, among which the modulation of the immune system stands out, including also the antioxidant, antitumor, antimicrobial and anticoagulant activities. However, in order for these carbohydrates to be better administered to human beings and for them to have greater biologi…
The fungals exopolysaccharides (EPS) are glucans that stand out for their biological potential, among which the modulation of inflammation, since macrophages have specific ²-glucan receptor able to recognize them and trigger the production of the cytokines types TNF-± (pro-inflammatory) and/or IL-10 (anti-inflammatory) mainly. However, the low water solubility of these molecules limits th…
Medicinal plants have been used during the history of mankind to treat diseases, mainly in developing countries. In this context, the study of potencial of these plants became attractive for pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries. Cerrado, one of the main areas of biodiversity, offers a wide range of plants for these types of applications. Among the various species of this biome, there is…
