Devido ? exist?ncia de um grande n?mero de esp?cies dispon?veis para pesquisa e estudos farmacol?gicos, o estudo dessa planta torna-se importante para o conhecimento t?cnico-cient?fico, especialmente com a finalidade do desenvolvimento de novos f?rmacos. Com isto, o objetivo desse trabalho foi detectar prote?nas ativas de Plectranthus barbatus (boldo da terra) e avaliar a atividade biol?gica em c?lulas A549 e RAW264.7. As amostras dos procedimentos de extra??o das folhas e caule do P. barbatus foram submetidas ? quantifica??o de prote?na. Foi detectado em gel de poliacrilamida SDS-PAGE 12% prote?nas com peso molecular em torno de 30kDa e 94kDa o que ? descrito na literatura como lectinas e lipoxigenases. Os extratos foram caracterizados por cromatografia l?quida de alta efici?ncia com picos aparentes em 16 e 27 minutos. N?o foi detectada atividade de inibi??o da tripsina. Os resultados dos testes biol?gicos em cultura de c?lulas demonstraram que o extrato purificado de inibidores de protease n?o alterou a viabilidade celular de ambas as linhagens, no entanto, foi capaz de inibir a produ??o de ?xido n?trico na concentra??o de 10 ?g/ml para folha e caule e 100 ?g/ml para folha. Este trabalho demonstra pela primeira vez a extra??o de prote?nas em folhas e caule de Plectranthus barbatus e a atividade dessa mol?cula em cultura celular. Esse extrato n?o alterou a viabilidade celular de ambas as linhagens celulares, podendo ser caracterizados como n?o citot?xico nas concentra??es testadas. Conclui-se, portanto, que embora as folhas, caules e flores do Plectranthus barbatus seja utilizado amplamente pela popula??o esse trabalho demonstrou a detec??o de lectina e lipoxigenase at? agora desconhecidos nessa esp?cie em estudo. / Disserta??o (Mestrado Profissional) ? Programa de P?s-Gradua??o em Tecnologia, Sa?de e Sociedade, Universidade Federal dos Vales do Jequitinhonha e Mucuri, 2017. / The boldo da terra (Plectranthus barbatus) is popularly used for the treatment of gastrointestinal disorders and for liver diseases. Due to the existence of a large number of species available for research and pharmacological studies, the study of this plant becomes important for technical-scientific knowledge, especially for the purpose of developing new drugs. With this, the objective of this work was to detect active proteins of Plectranthus barbatus and to evaluate the biological activity in cells A549 and RAW264.7. Samples of P. barbatus leaf and stem extraction procedures were submitted to protein quantification. SDS-PAGE was detected in 12% proteins with molecular weight around 30kDa and 94kDa which is described in the literature as lectins and lipoxygenases. The extracts were characterized by high performance liquid chromatography with apparent peaks at 16 and 27 minutes. No trypsin inhibition activity was detected. The results of the biological tests in cell culture demonstrated that the purified protease inhibitor extract did not alter the cell viability of both strains, however, it was able to inhibit the production of 10 ?g / ml nitric oxide to leaf and And 100 ?g / ml for leaf. This work demonstrates for the first time the extraction of proteins in leaves and stem of Plectranthus barbatus and the activity of this molecule in cell culture. This extract did not alter the cellular viability of both cell lines and could be characterized as non-cytotoxic at the concentrations tested. It was concluded, therefore, that although the leaves, stems and flowers of Plectranthus barbatus were used extensively by the population, this work demonstrated the detection of lectin and lipoxygenase hitherto unknown in this species under study.
