The plant Garcinia gardneriana (Planch. & Triana) Zappi, popularly known in Brazil as "bacupari" has traditionally been used for various types of inflammatory diseases and the evaluation of their chemical composition, mainly of leaves, has resulted in biflavonoids as major compounds. These phenolic compounds have shown anti-inflammatory activity validating the popular use of the plant. In this work was isolated from dried branches of Garcinia gardneriana the biflavonoids: morelloflavone, that is an naringenin covalently linked to luteolin, Gb-2a which is an naringenin linked to eriodictyol and Gb-2a- 7-O-glucose. These compounds have been previously evaluated in various activities such as anti-inflammatory and anti-antioxidants but there is no report of its activity as enzymatic inhibitors. However, the monomers that form it, have been evaluated in the inhibition of aromatase and antidepressant activity with positive outcome, which commonly are used MAO-A inhibitors. In the isolation process were also founded terpenoid compounds as lupeol and friedelin The isolated and purified biflavonoids were used to evaluate enzyme inhibition "in vitro" in monoamine oxidases (MAO-A MAO-B) and aromatase. The compounds showed a positive response even of IC50 5,47 μM and 1,35 μM for MAO-A inhibition of and aromatase enzyme respectively; discovering a way for a new proposal to link both enzymes for treatment of hormone-dependent cancers and anxiety and depression disorders. / La planta Garcinia gardneriana (Planch. & Triana) Zappi, popularmente conocida en Brasil como "bacupari" ha sido tradicionalmente usada para varios tipos de enfermedades inflamatorias y la evaluación de su composición química, principalmente de las hojas, ha resultado en biflavonoides como compuestos mayoritarios.

Estos compuestos ya han sido previamente evaluados en diversas actividades como anti inflamatorios y anti antioxidantes pero no se tiene reporte de su actividad como inhibidores enzimáticos. Sin embargo, los monomeros que los conforman han sido evaluados en la inhibición de la aromatasa y con resultados positivos como en la actividad antidepresiva, para la cual comúnmente son usados los inibidores de MAO-A. En el proceso de aislamiento también fueron encontrados compuestos terpenoides como lupeol y friedelina. Los biflavonoides aislados y purificados se usaron para evaluar la inhibición enzimática “in vitro” en monoaminooxidasas (MAO-A, MAO-B) y aromatasa. Los compuestos presentaron una respuesta positiva calculada con IC50 de hasta 5,47 μM y 1,35 μM para la inhibición de las enzimas MAO-A y aromatasa respectivamente, abriendo el camino a una nueva propuesta de relacionar estas dos enzimas para tratamiento de cánceres hormonodependientes y transtornos de ansiedad y depresión.

Vegetables represent a source of active molecules for various diseases, including malaria. Through phytochemical procedures, one can study the secondary metabolism of these plants where they hope to find new sources of treatment for malaria. The present study had as main objective to identify molecules derived from natural sources can inhibit the ATPase-Ca 2 + protein of Plasmodium falciparum (PfATP6). The molecular target was the model PfATP6 receiver, obtained by comparative modeling. Was performed using the program AutoDock Vina 1.1.2. screening in databases with the aim of selecting the 10 most promising ligands, with determination of the energies of affinity. Subsequently, tests with hydromethanolic and chloroform extracts of the species of Tul Cenostigma macrophyllum were performed. The patterns of agatisflavona and amentoflavone biflavonoids were analyzed by High Performance Liquid Chromatography for Detection Arrangement Diodes (HPLC-DAD) to identify the presence of these metabolites in the species. Validation of the chromatographic method took into account the parameters selectivity, linearity, precision, accuracy, limit of detection and limit of quantification. The results showed molecular next coupling energy variation among the 10 selected compounds (1 kcal / mol). With the results of the molecular coupling of the intermolecular interactions were studied and agatisflavona amentoflavone with PfATP6 receiver comparing them with the values obtained for thapsigargin. Since the energy values affinity the compounds amentoflavone -10.0 kcal / mol and agatisflavona -9.7 kcal / mol ortost?rico showed affinity for the receptor site of PfATP6, these interactions being supported by the nature of intermolecular interactions identified. By comparing the retention times and ultraviolet spectra (UV) of the standards and samples could be identified agatisflavona amentoflavone and biflavonoids the leaves and stem bark of C. macrophyllum. Quantification of agatisflavona biflavonoide ranged from 22.25 to 0.012 mg of agatisflavona / g dry plant and amentoflavone ranged from 20.63 to 0.02 mg of amentoflavone / g dry plant. The analysis of the parameters evaluated showed that the method was suitable for the analysis of agatisflavona and amentoflavone, performing in line with the specifications of the current legislation. It is noticed that the amentoflavone agatisflavona compounds and can act in PfATP6 receiver, directing further studies of interactions in biological target in perspective for malaria control. Thus, it is possible to suggest that there are natural compounds present in semiarid with possible antimalarial activity, wherein the molecular modeling tool associated with the phytochemical analysis can guide the identification of bioactive compounds, and therefore the development of new drugs. / A mal?ria ? considerada como uma doen?a infecciosa, n?o contagiosa de evolu??o cr?nica com manifesta??es epis?dicas de car?ter agudo, a qual aflige milh?es de pessoas nas zonas tropicais e subtropicais do globo. Os vegetais representam fonte de mol?culas ativas para diversas enfermidades, incluindo a mal?ria. Atrav?s de procedimentos fitoqu?micos, pode-se estudar o metabolismo secund?rio desses vegetais onde se esperam encontrar novas fontes de tratamento para a mal?ria. O presente estudo teve como objetivo geral identificar mol?culas oriundas de fontes naturais capazes de inibir a prote?na ATPase-Ca+2 do Plasmodium falciparum (PfATP6). O alvo molecular foi o modelo do receptor PfATP6, obtido por modelagem comparativa.

Posteriormente, foram realizados testes com os extratos hidrometan?lico e clorof?rmico da esp?cie de Cenostigma macrophyllum Tul. Os padr?es dos biflavonoides agatisflavona e amentoflavona foram analisados por Cromatografia L?quida de Alta Efici?ncia por Detec??o de Arranjo de Diodos (CLAE-DAD) para identifica??o da presen?a destes metab?litos na esp?cie. A valida??o do m?todo cromatogr?fico levou em considera??o os par?metros seletividade, linearidade, precis?o, exatid?o, limite de detec??o e limite de quantifica??o. Os resultados de acoplamento molecular apresentaram varia??o energ?tica pr?xima entre os 10 compostos selecionados (1 kcal/mol). De posse dos resultados do acoplamento molecular foram estudadas as intera??es intermoleculares da agatisflavona e amentoflavona com o receptor PfATP6 comparando-os com os valores obtidos para a tapsigargina. Dado os valores de energia de afinidade, os compostos amentoflavona -10,0 Kcal/mol e agatisflavona -9,7 Kcal/mol apresentaram afinidade com o s?tio ortost?rico do receptor PfATP6, sendo essas intera??es sustentadas pela natureza das intera??es intermoleculares identificadas. Atrav?s da compara??o dos tempos de reten??o e espectros de Ultra Violeta (UV) dos padr?es e amostras foi poss?vel identificar os biflavonoides agatisflavona e amentoflavona nas folhas e casca do caule de C. macrophyllum. A quantifica??o do biflavonoide agatisflavona variou de 22,25 a 0,012 ?g de agatisflavona/g de planta seca e da amentoflavona variou de 20,63 a 0,02 ?g de amentoflavona/g de planta seca. A an?lise dos par?metros avaliados demonstrou que o m?todo foi adequado para a an?lise da agatisflavona e amentoflavona, apresentando-se em conson?ncia com as especifica??es da legisla??o vigente. Percebe-se que os compostos amentoflavona e agatisflavona podem atuar no receptor PfATP6, direcionando novos estudos de intera??es nesse alvo biol?gico na perspectiva de controle da mal?ria. Desta forma ? poss?vel sugerir que existem compostos naturais presente no semi?rido com poss?vel atividade antimal?rica, no qual a ferramenta da modelagem molecular associada ?s analises fitoqu?micas pode guiar na identifica??o de compostos bioativos e, por conseguinte no desenvolvimento de novos f?rmacos.

O teste citotóxico contra Artemia salina revelou atividade moderada para fase AcOEt em PPCR. Assim como, a fase AcOEt de PPCR apresentou 75% de inibição no teste anticolinesterásico. Para a atividade antioxidante, as fase AcOEt e BuOH de PPF foi a mais ativa, sendo atribuída a presença de galato de metila (PPF3). Por meio de processos cromatográficos foi possível isolar da fase DCM de PPF as substâncias PPF1 (alcoóis graxos), PPF2a-b (β–sitosterol/estigmasterol), PPF3 (galato de metila) e PPF4 (α e β–amirina). Além dessas, foram isoladas da fase hexano de PPCR ésteres metílicos (PPCR1) e o biflavonoide 5,7-dihidroxi-4´-metoxiflavona-6α-2´´´,4´´´-dihidroxi-4´´- metoxidihidrochalcona (PPCR3). Da fase hidroMeOH de PPCR foram isoladas as substâncias PPCR2 (ácido 3,3´-dimetoxi-4-hidroxielagico-4´-β-D-xilopiranosideo) e outro biflavonoide PPCR4 (5-hidroxi-7,4´-dimetoxiflavona-3α-2´´´-hidroxi-4´´´,4´´- dimetoxidihidrochalcona). Sendo PPCR3 e PPCR4 inéditas na literatura. O extrato hexano de Theobroma cacao (cacau) obtido das sementes (STC) foi analisado por RMN e revelou presença de triacilglicerideos. A otimização e fracionamento do extrato MeOH de T. cacao utilizando CCC levou ao isolamento simultâneo de teobromina (2), teofilina (3) e cafeína (4), fase móvel hexano:AcOEt (2:3) e estacionária MeOH:H2O (1:1). Um método analítico foi desenvolvido empregando HPLC/DAD com coluna fase reversa C-18 para a quantificação de 2, 3 e 4 nos extrativos em fase ácida/básica e nas frações STC6-22 e STC23-67 obtidas por CCC. Assim, os teores de 2 e 4 para no extrato MeOH de T. cacao e frações obtidas por CCC foram determinados. A teofilina (3) detectada e quantificada na fração STC6-22 em baixa concentração (0,78 mg/g) em relação a 2 e 4. A apigenina (6) foi sintetizada utilizando dois métodos distintos (“A” e “B”). O metodo “B” apresentou rendimento de 74% em uma única etapa. A síntese de derivados O-metilados forneceu bons rendimentos (> 90%). As substâncias isoladas/sintetizadas foram submetidas à atividade anticolinesterasica do qual, são inativas. As mesmas foram elucidadas a partir de dados de IV, UV, EM, α[D], RMN de 1H e 13C (BB e APT), RMN de correlação (HMQC, HSQC e HMBC). / The MeOH extracts from Poincinella pyramidalis (caatingueira), obtained of bark root (PPCR) and flowers (PPF), as well the organic fractions obtained by partition, have been tested for cytotoxicity, antioxidant and anticholinesterasic activity. The cytotoxic test against Artemia salina showed moderate activity for AcOEt phase in PPCR. Well the EtOAc phase of PPCR showed 75% inhibition on anticholinesterasic test. For the antioxidant activity, the EtOAc and BuOH phase of PPF was the most active, being attributed to the presence of methyl gallate (PPF3). For chromatographic process was possible to isolate the DCM phase of PPF the substances PPF1 (fatty alcohols), PPF2a- b (β–sitosterol/stigmasterol), PPF3 (methyl galate) and PPF4 (α- and β–amirin). Besides these, were isolated from the hexane phase PPCR methyl esters (PPCR1) and the biflavonoid 5,7-dihidroxy-4´-methoxyflavone-6α-2´´´,4´´´-dihidroxy-4´´-methoxy dihidrochalcone (PPCR3). The HidroMeOH phase of PPCR were the isolated substances PPCR2 (3,3´-dimethoxi-4-hidroxyellagicacid-4´-β-D-xylopiranoside) and other biflavonoid PPCR4 (5-hidroxy-7,4´-dimethoxyflavone-3α-2´´´-hidroxy-4´´´,4´´- dimethoxydihidrochalcone). Being PPCR3 and PPCR4 unpublished in literature. Hexane extract of Theobroma cacao (cacau) obtained from the seeds (STC) was analyzed by NMR and revealed the presence of triacylglycerides. The optimization and fractionation of MeOH extract of T. cacao using CCC led to the simultaneous isolation of theobromine (2) Theophylline (3) and caffeine (4), mobile phase hexane:EtOAc (2:3) and stationary MeOH:H2O (1:1). An analytical method was developed employing HPLC/DAD with reverse phase column C-18 for the measurement of 2, 3 and 4 in the extractives acid/base phase and the STC6-22 and STC23-67 fractions obtained by CCC. So, the levels of 2 and 4 for the MeOH extract of T. cacao and fractions obtained by CCC were determined. Theophylline (3) detected and quantified in the fraction STC6-22 low concentration (0.78 mg/g) in relation the 2 and 4. Apigenin (6) was synthesized using two different methods ("A" and "B"). The method "B" had a yield of 74% in one step. The synthesis of O-methylated derivatives provided good yields (> 90%). The isolated/synthesized substances were submitted to anticholinesterasic activity which are inactive. The same were elucidated from data of IR, UV, MS, α[D], 1H NMR and 13C NMR (BB and APT) NMR correlation (HMQC, HSQC and HMBC).
