Ethno botanical surveys have revealed that Brunei Darussalam has a rich source of tropical medicinal plants. As 80% of the country's land is covered by tropical rainforest, Brunei Darussalam may have some medicinal plants with unique characteristics of secondary metabolites. Some plants such as Catharanthus roseus (L.) G. Don and Eurycoma longifolia Jack have long been used by the local communities to treat various disease conditions. However, no research has been done in terms of the constituents or biological activities of the Brunei Darussalam medicinal plants. We have investigated the genetic variability diversity and pharmacological actions of Andrographis paniculata (Burm.f.) Nees [1] also known as Daun Pahit or Chuan Xin Lian or King of Bitters by an interdisciplinary approach, involving DNA-based RAPD and RFLP analyses, HPLC-based chemical analysis as well as cell culture and tissue-based bioassays. We have demonstrated that Andrographis paniculata extr acts exhibited a range of actions including antioxidant, anti-allergies, anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer effects. Some of the pharmacological actions of Andrographis paniculata are co-related with their active constituents Andrographolide (A) and Dehydroandrographolide (D). The study is valued not only in obtaining experimental evidence for supporting traditional use of native medicinal plants but also in establishing a platform for studying other medicinal plants in Brunei Darussalam.

Quando tornadas crônicas, modificam o movimento humano em si e as relações com o meio externo. O objetivo deste trabalho é identificar os efeitos do Lian Gong em 18 Terapias sobre a relação tensão muscular/estados de ânimo, em indivíduos de 30 a 60 anos. A amostra foi composta por 30 participantes distribuídos em quatro grupos, de acordo com o tempo de prática desta abordagem. A coleta dos dados foi efetuada através de questionários com perguntas abertas e de múltipla escolha: o primeiro diagnóstico e o segundo referente às práticas do Lian Gong. Esta pesquisa foi de natureza exploratória e os dados foram investigados qualitativa e quantitativamente, através de uma análise de conteúdo. As unidades de registro basearam-se em temas relacionados a sentimentos, comportamentos, opiniões e atitudes; e como unidade de contexto, cada questão referente aos dois questionários, distribuídos em sete categorias. Os resultados revelam que o Lian Gong em 18 Terapias é um sistema de auto-organização corporal e favorece a prevenção e a terapia. As 1a, 2a, 3a e 4a séries demonstram um relacionamento maior com a tensão muscular e estados de ânimo. A maioria dos participantes pensa e pratica o Lian Gong como forma de auto-ajuda, leveza, bem-estar, para diminuir a tensão e aliviar as dores no corpo; os participantes sentem-se mais alegres, dispostos, equilibrados, com energia, tranqüilos e auto-regulados; sentem-se mais relaxados, mais ágeis e mais flexíveis. Socialmente sentem-se mais extrovertidos, comunicativos, abertos para fazerem novas amizades e em relação ao comportamento familiar, mais calmos, pacientes, compreensivos... / The experiences of the state of spirit takes the individual to structure itself physically and to reveal physiological reactions that organize, disorganize and reorganize the muscular tensions.
