| ampelozyziphus amazonicus ducke (rhamnaceae), a medicinal plant used to prevent malaria in the amazon region, hampers the development of plasmodium berghei sporozoites. | most medicinal plants used against malaria in endemic areas aim to treat the acute symptoms of the disease such as high temperature fevers with periodicity and chills. in some endemic areas of the brazilian amazon region one medicinal plant seems to be an exception: ampelozyziphus amazonicus, locally named "indian beer" or "saracura-mira", used to prevent the disease when taken daily as a cold suspension of powdered dried roots. in previous work we found no activity of the plant extracts against ... | 2008 | 18599059 |
| in vitro and in vivo antimalarial potential of oleoresin obtained from copaifera reticulata ducke (fabaceae) in the brazilian amazon rainforest. | in view of the wide variety of the flora of the amazon region, many plants have been studied in the search for new antimalarial agents. copaifera reticulata is a tree distributed throughout the amazon region which contains an oleoresin rich in sesquiterpenes and diterpenes with β-caryophyllene as the major compound. the oleoresin has demonstrated antiparasitic activity against leishmania amazonensis. because of this previously reported activity, this oleoresin would be expected to also have anti ... | 2017 | 28160850 |
| in vitro and in vivo anti-malarial activity of plants from the brazilian amazon. | the anti-malarials quinine and artemisinin were isolated from traditionally used plants (cinchona spp. and artemisia annua, respectively). the synthetic quinoline anti-malarials (e.g. chloroquine) and semi-synthetic artemisinin derivatives (e.g. artesunate) were developed based on these natural products. malaria is endemic to the amazon region where plasmodium falciparum and plasmodium vivax drug-resistance is of concern. there is an urgent need for new anti-malarials. traditionally used amazoni ... | 2015 | 26682750 |
| anti-malarial activity and toxicity assessment of himatanthus articulatus, a plant used to treat malaria in the brazilian amazon. | plasmodium falciparum has become resistant to some of the available drugs. several plant species are used for the treatment of malaria, such as himatanthus articulatus in parts of brazil. the present paper reports the phyto-chemistry, the anti-plasmodial and anti-malarial activity, as well as the toxicity of h. articulatus. | 2015 | 25888719 |
