Constituintes químicos das cascas do caule de Vochysia thyrsoidea Pohl. (Vochysiaceae) e avaliação das atividades citotóxica e inibitória frente as catepsinas B e K

A new flavonoid, catechin-3-O-(3"-O-trans-cinnamoyl)-α-rhamnopyranoside, along with known compounds, catechin-3-O-α-rhamnopyranoside, 3-oxo-urs-12-en-28-oic acid, 2,4,6-trimethoxybenzoic acid, 2-butyl-D-fructofuranoside and 1-butyl-D-fructofuranoside, has been isolated from the stem bark of V. thyrsoidea. These compounds were assayed for inhibition of protease activity (cathepsins B and K) and against cancer cell lines. Catechin-3-O-(3"-O-trans-cinnamoyl)-α-rhamnopyranoside showed moderate inhibitory activity (IC50 = 62.02 µM) against cathepsin B while 2-butyl-D-fructofuranoside was the most potent against a strain of CNS (SF-295) and human leukemia (HL-60) with IC50 = 36.80 µM and IC50 = 25.37 µM, respectively.

In vitro effect of isoschaftoside isolated from Syngonium podophyllum on pig kidney Na+, K+-ATPase

The present study aimed to investigate the in vitro effects of isoschaftoside isolated from Syngonium podophyllum on pig kidney Na+,K+-ATPase. The Na+, K+-ATPase activity was determined by colorimetric measurement of inorganic phosphate (Pi), resulting from ATP hydrolysis. Isoschaftoside significantly decreased the renal Na+, K+-ATPase activity at the highest concentration as well as at a lower concentration. Our work suggests that isoschaftoside is a promising compound for the treatment of hypertension.

The Li+, Na+ and K+ ion exchange reaction process on the surface of mixed oxide SiO2/TiO2/Sb2O5 surface prepared by the sol-gel processing method

The porous mixed oxide SiO2/TiO2/Sb2O5 obtained by the sol-gel processing method presented a good ion exchange property and a high exchange capacity towards the Li+, Na+ and K+ ions. In the H+/M+ ion exchange process, the H+ / Na+ could be described as presenting an ideal character. The ion exchange equilibria of Li+ and K+ were quantitatively described with the help of the model of fixed tetradentate centers. The results of simulation evidence that for the H+ / Li+ exchange the usual situation takes place: the affinity of the material to the Li+ ions is decreased with increasing the degree of ion exchange. On the contrary, for K+ the effects of positive cooperativity, that facilitate the H+ / K+ exchange, were revealed.

Influência dos íons K+ e Mg2+ na obtenção de apatitas biomiméticas

O crescimento da hidroxiapatita - HA, tanto no meio biológico quanto em soluções aquosas como a Synthetic Body Fluid - SBF, ocorre em meio contendo, além dos elementos Ca e P, elementos-traços essenciais tais como: Mg2+, HCO3-, K+ e Na+. Alguns destes elementos são conhecidos como inibidores do crescimento da HA, como Mg2+ e HCO3-. Neste trabalho, estudou-se a influência dos íons K+ e Mg2+ na formação de apatitas sobre substratos metálicos de Ti c.p. previamente tratados com NaOH 5M. Os efeitos destes íons no recobrimento obtidos, antes e após o tratamento térmico a 800ºC, foram analisados por microscopia eletrônica de varredura - MEV, espectroscopia de energia dispersiva de raios-X - EDX, difratometria de raios-X - DRX e espectroscopia no infravermelho - IV e mostraram que o efeito inibitório do Mg2+ na formação da HA se manifesta após o tratamento térmico. Diferentemente, o crescimento cristalino da HA não foi afetado pela presença do íon K+. Além disso, a formação de apatita carbonatada se deu também em soluções que não continham o íon CO3(2-) em sua composição.

Isolation of lignans glycosides from Alibertia sessilis (Vell.) K. Schum. (Rubiaceae) by preparative high-performance liquid chromatography

Enantiomeric aglycone lignans contained in a mixture were separated from a fraction of the extract of the stems of Alibertia sessilis (Vell.) K. Schum. (Rubiaceae) by preparative high-performance liquid chromatography. An efficient and fast separation can be achieved with methanol-water (30:70, v/v). Their structures were identified as (+)-lyoniresinol 3alpha-O-beta-glucopyranoside and (-)-lyoniresinol 3alpha-O-beta-glucopyranoside, being reported for the first time in Rubiaceae.
