“…The leaves of this plant have been found to contain sesquiterpenes and lactone derivatives. From G. polymorpha leaves were obtained various fractions, and the EtOAc fraction showed signifi cant antiedematogenic activity with a dose level of 150 mg/ kg on carrageenin model in rats when this activity was compared to a control group, the amino acid 4-hydroxy-N-methyl-proline, that showed signifi cant inhibition of edema with a dose level 200 mg/kg (Moreira et al, 2000).…”

ABSTRACT:The infl ammatory reaction is a response of the organism against an injury and it involves the action of complex events and mediators through of the blood vessels. The present work is a literature survey of the extracts of plants with anti-infl ammatory activity studied in Brazil. The review refers to 75 plants with their families, parts used, type of extract used, bioassay models and their activity.

“…Struthanthus flexicaulis has been cited in some ethnobotanical studies from Northeast and Southeast regions of Brazil (Rodrigues & Carvalho 2001), as well as in pharmacological studies testing its antibacterial capacity (Vieira et al 2005;Oliveira et al 2007). Similarly, Gochnatia polymorpha and Malva parviflora have been listed in some ethnobotanical studies, and anti-inflammatory (Moreira et al 2000;Shale et al 2005;Tadeg et al 2005;Afolayan et al 2010;Piornedo et al 2011) and antispasmodic (Schlemper et al 2011) capacities have been demonstrated for these species. The results from our study demonstrate high potential of these plant species also as sources of natural antioxidants.…”

Despite the importance of medicinal plants for the healthcare of local people, the knowledge about medicinal species used in the Pampa biome has been neglected over the years. In this study, an ethnobotanical survey was employed aiming to characterize the species richness and diversity of commercialized medicinal plant species in five cities within the Brazilian Pampa. Additionally, among the listed plants, ten species were selected for in vitro testing of their potential antioxidant activity. A total of 56 plant species belonging to 33 botanical families were listed by the 115 interviewees. No significant difference in commercialized medicinal plant species, and very similar species richness was observed among the cities, indicating that the local knowledge is consistently preserved across the studied cities. According to the biochemical analysis, Sphagneticola trilobata, Malva parviflora and Struthanthus flexicaulis emerged as very promising species for antioxidant activity. Further studies are recommended to advance our knowledge about the richness of medicinal plant species in the Brazilian Pampa, and to assess their therapeutic potential.

Proximate composition, total phenolics and total flavonoids level, DPPH radical scavenging activity, and cytotoxicity were determined in the methanol extracts of different plant parts of Youngia sonchifolia at reproductive growth stage. Crude protein and crude fat were present as the highest amount in flowers, and crude fiber in the stems and roots. The highest content of phenolics [mg ferulic acid equivalents (FAE) kg -1 dry weight (DW)] was found in flowers (highest) and followed by leaves, stems and roots (lowest). Flavonoids [mg rutin equivalents kg -1 DW] level, however, showed the highest in leaf extracts and lowest in root extracts. The antioxidant potential of the methanol extracts from the plants dose-dependently increased DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) free radical scavenging activity (%). DPPH radical scavenging activity were highest in root extracts (IC50 = 1,135.6 mg kg -1 ) and followed by leaf, stem and flower extracts. By way of MTT (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide) assay, methanol extracts of roots showed the highest anticancer activity on human cancer cell line Calu-6 for human pulmonary carcinoma (IC 50 = 196.3 mg kg -1 ) and HCT-116 for human colon carcinoma (IC50=623.6 mg kg -1 ).
