1. Synthesis, in silico Study and Antileishmanial Evaluation of New Selenides Derived from 7-Chloro-quinoline and N-Phenylacetamides
This study describes a virtual screening performed for two series of selenides (28 compounds), derived from N-phenylacetamides chlorides and 7-chloro-quinoline, to determine their potential for leishmanicidal activity against Leishmania amazonensis and Leishmania donovani. Seven compounds were predicted as potential leishmanicides; therefore, they were synth

2. Antileishmanial Acetylene Fatty Acid and Acetogenins from Seeds of Porcelia macrocarpa
In the present work five acetylene derivatives (1-5), including three unknowns (1, 3 and 4), were isolated from seeds of Porcelia macrocarpa (Annonaceae). The structures of isolated compounds were determined as docos-13-yn-21-enoic acid (1), 3-hydroxy-4-methylene-2-(eicos-11’-yn-19’-enyl)but-2-enolide (2), 3-hydroxy-4-methylene-2-(octadec-9’-yn-17’-e

3. Phytochemical Analysis, Multi-Element Composition and Biological Activities of Extracts and Lupenone from Albizia inundata (Mart.) Barneby & J.W.Grimes
In this study, antimicrobial activity of extracts and lupenone from A. inundata (Fabaceae, Mimosoideae), were tested. In addition, the multi-element composition of the leaves, bark and stems (heartwood) of A. inundata was evaluated using inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP OES). Lupenone was isolated in the petroleum ether extract o

4. Synthesis, Antileishmanial Activity and Spin Labeling EPR Studies of Novel β-Carboline-Oxazoline and β-Carboline-Dihydrooxazine Derivatives
A series of novel 1-(substituted-phenyl)-3-(4,5-dihydro-1,3-oxazol-2-yl)-9H-β-carboline (8a-8i) and 1-(substituted-phenyl)-3-(5,6-dihydro-4H-1,3-oxazin-2-yl)-9H-β-carboline (9a-9h) derivatives, as well as their respective N-(chloroalkyl)-1-(substituted-phenyl)-9H-β-carboline-3-carboxamide precursors (6a-6i and 7a-7h), were synthesized and evaluated for th

5. Unexpected Rearrangement and Aromatization on Dehydration Reaction of the Bioactive Diterpenequinone 7α-Hydroxyroyleanone
7a-Hydroxyroyleanone is a bioactive diterpene isolated from leaves of Tetradenia riparia, active against tuberculosis and T. cruzi. In order to use this compound as starting material for the synthesis of compounds with enhanced bioactivity we aimed the dehydration of the 7-alpha-hydroxyl group of royleanone. The reaction performed in acetic acid and hydrochl

6. SÍNTESE, ATIVIDADE ANTILESHMANIA E CITOTÓXICA DE HIDRAZONAS DERIVADAS DE ALDEÍDOS NATURAIS
Leishmaniasis is endemic anthropozoonosis considered to be a severe public health problem. The treatment with pentavalent antimonials presents high toxicity motivating the search for effective and less toxic drugs. Hydrazones and N-acylhydrazones are functional groups that are prominent in Medicinal Chemistry, including as antiprotozoals. In this context, fi

7. Antileishmanial in vitro activity of essential oil from Myrciaria plinioides, a native species from Southern Brazil
In South American folk medicine members of the genus Myrciaria are used for the treatment of malaria, diarrhoea, asthma, inflammation and post-partum uterine cleansing. The aim of this work was to evaluate its antileishmanial properties (in vitro) of essential oil derived from leaves of Myrciaria plinioides D. Legrand, a plant species that is native in South

8. N-Myristoyltransferases as antileishmanial targets: a piggyback approach with benzoheterocyclic analogues
Leishmaniasis is one of the neglected diseases that remain in need for pharmacological alternatives. In this context, N-Myristoyltransferases (NMT) arise as interesting targets to explore since they are involved in the co/post-translational processing of peptides which are responsible for host cell invasion. Studies that consider these enzymes as targets poi

9. Essential Oils from Croton Species: Chemical Composition, in vitro and in silico Antileishmanial Evaluation, Antioxidant and Cytotoxicity Activities
Chemotherapy treatment of leishmaniasis is based on the use of pentavalent antimonials, but these drugs present low efficacy and high toxicity. In the search for new antileishmanial agents, essential oils (EOs) from four Croton species (C. argyrophylloides, C. jacobinensis, C. nepetifolius and C. sincorensis) were evaluated against Leishmania infantum chagas

10. Cardanols detected in non-polar propolis extracts from Scaptotrigona aff. postica (Hymenoptera, Apidae, Meliponini)
Resumo A própolis elaborada pelas abelhas sem ferrão (Apidae, Meliponini) é um material resinoso extraído de brotos, folhas e exsudatos de plantas, que são misturados com secreções salivares, cera e solo. A espécie Scaptotrigona aff. postica (Latreille, 1807), (Hymenoptera, Apidae, Meliponini), popularmente conhecida como “tubi”, no estado do Mar

11. Antileishmanial activity and chemical composition from Brazilian geopropolis produced by stingless bee Melipona fasciculata
ABSTRACT Geopropolis is produced by some stingless bee species such as Melipona fasciculata and consists of a mixture of plant resins, salivary secretions of the bee, wax, and soil. This study evaluated the antileishmanial activity in vitro, cytotoxicity and chemical composition of geopropolis produced by M. fasciculata in the savannah region of Maranhão, B

12. Antileishmanial activity and immunomodulatory effect of secosubamolide, a butanolide isolated from Nectandra oppositifolia (Lauraceae)
Abstract Background: Visceral leishmaniasis is a complex neglected tropical disease caused by Leishmania donovani complex. Its current treatment reveals strong limitations, especially high toxicity. In this context, natural products are important sources of new drug alternatives for VL therapy. Therefore, the antileishmanial and immunomodulatory activity of
