“…Crataeva tapia (also known as Crateva tapia ), a plant ofCapparidaceae family, is commonly found in Pluvial Tropical Atlantic Forest and Pantanal Tropical Forest in Brazil [1]. C. tapia is known by Northeast Brazilian people as “paudalho” or “tapiá” and its bark is largely used in the folk medicine for the treatment of diabetes.…”

Crataeva tapia is a plant popularly used for diabetes treatment, in Brazil. Progressive decline in renal and hepatic functions has been described in patients with diabetes mellitus, and mortality rate is increased in patients with chronic liver and renal disease. This study aimed to evaluate whether Crataeva tapia bark lectin (CrataBL) improves hyperglycemia and renal and hepatic damage in diabetic mice. CrataBL was purified by ion exchange chromatography on CM-cellulose, and intraperitoneal administration of CrataBL to alloxan-induced diabetic mice at dose of 10 mg/Kg/day and 20 mg/Kg/day for 10 days significantly reduced serum glucose levels by 14.9% and 55.9%, respectively. Serum urea, creatinine, aspartate aminotransferase, and alanine aminotransferase were also significantly reduced after treatment with both doses of CrataBL. Furthermore, histological analysis of liver, kidney, and pancreas revealed an improvement in the tissue morphology upon treatment with CrataBL. The results suggest that CrataBL has a beneficial hypoglycemic activity and improves the renal and hepatic complications of diabetes. Therefore, this lectin may be a promising agent for the treatment of diabetes, and this might be the basis for its use in the folk medicine as an alternative treatment to manage diabetes-related complications such as hyperglycemia and tissue damage.

“…A presença de mucilagem aderida ao tegumento das sementes não só influencia seu teor de água, como também impede sua utilização devido à presença de hormônios de crescimento, tais como etileno e ácido abscísico, os quais por sua vez, contribuem para a redução na germinação (TOKUHISA et al, 2007).…”

Qualidade fisiológica de sementes de Crataeva tapia L. submetidas a diferentes métodos de extração da mucilagem

RESUMO -Crataeva tapia L. é uma frutífera nativa, de copa arredondada e densa, cujos frutos comestíveis são ingeridos como refresco e bebida vinosa; além disso, possui características medicinais, ecológicas e econômicas pelo uso de sua madeira. Assim, objetivou-se avaliar a qualidade fisiológica de suas sementes quando submetidas a diferentes métodos de extração da mucilagem. Para tanto, foram testados os seguintes tratamentos: sementes com mucilagem -testemunha (T 1 ), fricção das sementes em cal virgem, pó de madeira e areia (T 2 , T 3 e T 4 , respectivamente), sementes com mucilagem secas ao sol e lavadas em água com fricção em peneira (T 5 e T 6 , respectivamente) e fermentação em água por 24; 48; 72 e 96 horas (T 7 , T 8 , T 9 , T 10 , respectivamente). Após a realização dos métodos de remoção da mucilagem, as sementes foram submetidas à determinação do teor de água e a testes de germinação e vigor (primeira contagem e índice de velocidade de germinação, comprimento e massa seca de plântulas), cujo delineamento foi inteiramente ao acaso. Pelos resultados obtidos, verificou-se que o teor de água das sementes submetidas aos métodos de extração da mucilagem reduziu, sendo mais elevado nas sementes lavadas em água com fricção em peneira e na testemunha. Os métodos de extração com pó de madeira e fermentação, por 48 e 72 horas (T 3 , T 8 e T 9 , respectivamente), promovem as maiores porcentagens de germinação, sendo que os melhores resultados de vigor foram verificados nos tratamentos de fricção das sementes em pó de madeira e fermentação por 48 horas (T 3 e T 8 , respectivamente). Termos para indexação: tapiá, frutífera nativa, viabilidade, vigor. PHYSIOLOGICAL QUALITY OF Crataeva tapia L. SEEDS UNDER DIFFERENT MUCILAGE EXTRACTION METHODSABSTRACT -Crataeva tapia L. is a native fruit, with dense rounded crown, whose edible fruits are ingested just as refreshment vinous beverage also has medicinal properties, ecological and economical use of the wood. Thus the objective was to evaluate the physiological quality of their seeds exposed to different extraction methods of mucilage. For both tested the following treatments: seeds with mucilage -control (T 1 ), rubbing the seeds in lime, wood dust and sand (T 2 , T 3 and T 4 , respectively), seed with mucilage sundried and washed with water friction strainer (T 5 and T 6 , respectively) and fermentation in water for 24, 48, 72 and 96 hours (T 7 , T 8 , T 9 , T 10 , respectively). After performing the removing mucilage methods the seeds were submitted to the determination of the moisture content and the germination and vigor (first count and germination speed index, length and seedling dry weight), whose design was completely at random. The results obtained showed that the moisture content of seeds submitted to extraction mucilage methods reduced, being higher in seeds rinsed in water with rubbing strainer and control. The extraction methods with wood dust and fermentation for 48 and 72 hours (T 3 , T 8 and T 9 , respectively) promote the highest germination, and the be...
