Como observado para o gênero Rhamnus, a espécie vegetal Rhamnus sphaerosperma var. pubescens, nativa no Brasil, pode apresentar um grande potencial químico e farmacológico; popularmente é conhecida como "fruto-de-pombo", com poucos estudos relatando suas propriedades. Tem composição rica em compostos antraquinônicos, onde já foram identificados crisofanol, fisciona e emodina. Os objetivos deste estudo foram verificar o potencial antioxidante via estudo da capacidade de captura sobre espécies reativas de oxigênio e nitrogênio, assim como a capacidade de indução de morte celular dos extratos, frações e antraquinonas isoladas de Rhamnus sphaerosperma var. pubescens (Rhamnaceae) em células tumorais de colo uterino com e sem o genoma do vírus HPV (SiHa e C33-A, respectivamente), e carcinoma oral de células escamosas (HSC-3). A antraquinona emodina apresentou a melhor capacidade de captura sobre as espécies NO• e O2 •- em relação as demais antraquinonas e extratos brutos. No ensaio de captura sobre o HOCl/OCl- todas as amostras foram efetivas, sendo os extratos brutos com melhor atividade, e dentre as antraquinonas, o crisofanol apresentou maior efetividade. Nenhuma amostra demonstrou capacidade na captura do H2O2. As antraquinonas emodina e...

As notorious for the Rhamnus genus, plant species Rhamnus sphaerosperma var. pubescens, native in Brazil may present a great chemical and pharmacological potential; It is popularly known as the Fruto-de-pombo, with few studies reporting its properties. This species has rich composition with anthraquinones, which have been identified: chrysophanol, physcion and emodin. The objectives of this study were to verify the capture capability of reactive species of oxygen and nitrogen, as well as cell death inducing ability of the extracts, fractions and isolated anthraquinones of Rhamnus sphaerosperma var. pubescens (Rhamnaceae) in cervical tumor cells with and without the genome of HPV virus (SiHa and C33-A, respectively), and oral squamous cell carcinoma (HSC-3). The anthraquinone emodin showed the best capture capability of the species NO• and O2 •- compared with other anthraquinones and crude extracts. In the scavenge assay of HOCl / OCl- all samples were effective, and the crude extracts showed better activity and chrysophanol showed better effectiveness among anthraquinones. No samples demonstrated ability in capturing the H2O2. The anthraquinones emodin and physcion demonstrated cytotoxic effect on the cell lines SiHa, C33-A, HSC-3 and HaCaT with mixed cell death (apoptosis and necrosis), independent of caspases pathway, detected in cytomorphological test with fluorochromes exclusion, annexin-V and evaluation of capsase-3 activity. The chrysophanol was not cytotoxic in these assays. Emodin, physcion and the crude extract...
