Considering the promising antitumor effects of compounds with dual anti-inflammatory and antiproliferative activities, thus benzophenones analogs (2-7) were evaluated on in vivo anti-inflammatory assay and molecular docking analysis. Those with the best molecular docking results were in vitro evaluated on cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes and tested regarding antiproliferative activity. All derivatives displayed in vivo anti-inflammatory activity. Among them, the substances 2’-hydroxy-4’-benzoylphenyl-β-D-glucopyranoside (4), 4-hydroxy-4’-methoxybenzophenone (5) and 4’-(4’’-methoxybenzoyl)phenyl-β-D-glucopyranoside (7) showed the best values of Glide Score in COX-2 docking evaluation and 4 and 5 selectively inhibited COX-2 and COX-1 in vitro enzymatic assay, respectively. Thus, 4 and 5 were tested against breast cancer (MCF-7, MDA MB-231, Hs578T) and non-small-cell-lung cancer (A549) cell lines. The estrogen-positive MCF-7 cell line was more responsive compared to other tested cell lines. They induced cell cycle arrest at G1/S transition in MCF-7 cell line once there was an increase in G0/G1 population with concomitant reduction of S population. The antiproliferative activity of these substances on MCF-7 was associated with their ability to inhibit cyclin E expression, a critical regulator of G1/S transition. Taken together, the data indicate that 4 and 5 have dual anti-inflammatory and antiproliferative activities and support further studies to evaluate their antitumor potential.

In this study, we assessed the cytotoxic effect of 1,3-diphenyl-2-allyl-1,3-propanedione (DPAP) on B16F10 and Tm5 melanoma cells and investigated its interaction with DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) using optical tweezers. The compound showed to be effective against B16F10 cells with selectivity index (SI) of 7.92 and interaction to the outer surface of the double helix, probably at the minor groove of DNA. This likely induced a bending deformation of the polymer chain, decreasing persistence length, and indicated that each DPAP molecule occupies a single base pair upon binding to the double helix.

Abstract Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), caused by the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus type 2 (SARS-CoV-2), is the largest pandemic in modern history with very high infection rates and considerable mortality. The disease, which emerged in China’s Wuhan province, had its first reported case on December 29, 2019, and spread rapidly worldwide. On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared the COVID-19 outbreak a pandemic and global health emergency. Since the outbreak, efforts to develop COVID-19 vaccines, engineer new drugs, and evaluate existing ones for drug repurposing have been intensively undertaken to find ways to control this pandemic. COVID-19 therapeutic strategies aim to impair molecular pathways involved in the virus entrance and replication or interfere in the patients’ overreaction and immunopathology. Moreover, nanotechnology could be an approach to boost the activity of new drugs. Several COVID-19 vaccine candidates have received emergency-use or full authorization in one or more countries, and others are being developed and tested. This review assesses the different strategies currently proposed to control COVID-19 and the issues or limitations imposed on some approaches by the human and viral genetic variability.

Carpotroche brasiliensis is a tree native to Brazil, belonging to the family Flacurtiaceae, whose seeds contain a group of cyclopentenyl fatty acids: gorlic (12%), chaulmugric (27%), and hydnocarpic (48.7%). These compounds are considered the main therapeutic agents in the treatment of leprosy. In the present study, a series of novel triazole compounds were obtained by conjugation between hydnocarpic acid and functionalized azides via copper(I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition reaction (CuAAC). Hydnocarpic acid and its derivatives were tested against estrogen-positive breast carcinoma (MCF-7), hepatocellular carcinoma (HepG2), and non-small cell lung cancer (A549) cell lines. The (R)-(1-(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)methyl-11-(cyclopent-2-en-1-yl)undecanoate (8) displayed promising antiproliferative activity against A549 cells. We demonstrated that this compound selectively inhibited the viability of A549 cell cultures. Furthermore, compound 8 inhibited the clonogenic capacity of A549 cells, and this effect was associated to its ability to inhibit cell cycle progression at G1 phase. These findings indicate that 8 is a promising antitumor agent on A549 cells and support further studies to evaluate the molecular mechanisms underlying its antiproliferative activity. In addition, hydnocarpic acid should be considered as a promising chemical prototype to obtain novel antineoplastic agents.

Abstract Background Thirty percent of schizophrenia patients are treatment-resistant. Objective This is a single-blinded sham-controlled trial to assess the efficacy of electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) as augmentation strategy in patients with clozapine-resistant schizophrenia. Methods Twenty three subjects were randomly assigned to 12 sessions of ECT (N = 13) or placebo (Sham ECT) (N = 10). The primary outcome was improvement on psychotic symptoms as measured by the mean reduction of the PANSS positive subscale. The assessments were performed by blind raters. Results At baseline both groups were similar, except for negative and total symptoms of the PANSS, which were higher in the Sham group. At the endpoint both groups had a significant decrease from basal score. In the ECT group the PANSS total score decreased 8.78%, from 81.23 to 74.75 (p = 0.042), while the positive subscale had a mean reduction of 19% (19.31 to 16.17, p = 0.006). In the Sham group, the mean reduction of PANSS total score was 15.27% (96.80 to 87.43; p = 0.036), and the PANSS positive subscale decreased 27.81% (22.90 to 19.14, p = 0.008). The CGI score in ECT group decreased 23.0% (5.23 to 4.17; p = 0.001) and decreased 24.31% in the Sham ECT group (5.80 to 4.86; p = 0.004). Discussion In this pilot study, we found no difference between the groups.

Background: Streptococcus bovis is a classical etiology of endocarditis and is associated with colonic lesions. No series of cases from Brazil has been described. Objectives: To describe aspects of S. bovis endocarditis. Methods: This is a case series of patients admitted to a cardiac surgery referral center, during the years 2005-2014. Clinical, laboratory, echochardiographic, colonoscopic, treatment, surgical and outcome variables were studied. Results: Nine patients with S. bovis endocarditis were included; all cases fulﬁlled the modiﬁed Duke criteria. Incidence was 8/220 (4%) in years 2006-2014. There were seven male and two female patients; mean age was 56.7 years, standard deviation 13.4. All patients had native aortic valve involvement. Presentation was subacute in 7/9 (71%). Fever was present in 7/9 (77.7%), embolic lesions to solid organs occurred in three, and perivalvular abscess in two patients. All echocardiograms showed moderate to severe valvular regurgitation and vegetations. Microcytic anemia was seen in 7/7 patients. Colonoscopy showed abnormal ﬁndings in 7/9 (77.7%). Surgery was indicated for 6/9 patients due to acute aortic regurgitation and left ventricular failure. All patients were discharged home. Conclusions: S. bovis most frequently affected the aortic valve of male patients. Colon disease was frequent. Surgery was indicated frequently due to hemodynamic compromise.

Requisitos para romper la latencia en semillas de Sophora tomentosa y Erythrina speciosa (Fabaceae). La latencia física de las semillas ha sido poco estudiada en las especies de los bosques tropicales, como el bosque atlántico. Este estudio tuvo como objetivo examinar el efecto de las temperaturas moderadas alternantes en romper la latencia física de las semillas, la anatomía y la histoquímica de la cubierta de las semillas, y la localización de la estructura o región responsable de la entrada de agua, después de romper la latencia física de las semillas de Sophora tomentosa y Eythrina speciosa, dos especies leñosas de Fabaceae (subfamilia Faboideae) que presentes en el bosque atlántico de Brasil. Para cumplir con el primer objetivo se incubaron las semillas a varias temperaturas que se dan en el bosque atlántico. Para los estudios morfológicos e histoquímicos se fijaron secciones de semillas sometidos a diferentes reactivos y se observaron usando luz o microscopía de epifluorescencia para analizar la anatomía y la histoquímica de la cubierta de la semilla. Semillas tratadas y no tratadas se analizaron también usando un microscopio electrónico de barrido (MDB) o microscopio estereoscópico (ME) para observar la morfología de la cubierta de la semilla. Para localizar el sitio específico de la entrada de agua, las semillas fueron bloqueadas con pegamento en diferentes regiones y también sumergidas en tinta. En el presente trabajo se aplicó una fluctuación de temperatura máxima de 15°C durante un período de 20 días y estas condiciones no aumentó la germinación de S. tomentosa o E. speciosa. Estos resultados pueden indicar que estas semillas requieren mayor fluctuación de la temperatura que la aplicada y/o un período más largo de exposición a la fluctuación de la temperatura. Experimentos de bloqueo de entrada de agua combinada con el análisis de las estructuras de la cubierta de la semilla para ambas especies (SEM) mostró que, a pesar de la lente, el hilio y micropilo están implicados en la absorción de agua en las semillas escarificadas con agua caliente. En las semillas de E. speciosa la inmersión de semillas escarificadas en una solución acuosa de anilina mostró que la solución entró por primera vez a la semilla a través del hilio. Ambas especies mostraron características morfológicas y anatómicas de semillas con cubierta de la subfamilia Faboideae. La lignina y callosa se encontraron alrededor de todas las capas de empalizada y la impermeabilidad al agua y en el trabajo se discute el papel ecológico de estas sustancias.

The physical dormancy of seeds has been poorly studied in species from tropical forests, such as the Atlantic Forest. This study aimed to examine the effect of moderate alternating temperatures on breaking the physical dormancy of seeds, the morphoanatomy and histochemistry of seed coats, and to locate the structure/region responsible for water entrance into the seed, after breaking the physical dormancy of seeds of two woody Fabaceae (subfamily Faboideae) species that occur in the Brazilian Atlantic Forest: Sophora tomentosa and Erythrina speciosa. To assess temperature effect, seeds were incubated in several temperature values that occur in the Atlantic Forest. For morphological and histochemical studies, sections of fixed seeds were subjected to different reagents, and were observed using light or epifluorescence microscopy, to analyze the anatomy and histochemistry of the seed coat. Treated and non-treated seeds were also analyzed using a scanning electron microscope (SEM) to observe the morphology of the seed coat. To localize the specific site of water entrance, the seeds were blocked with glue in different regions and also immersed in ink. In the present work a maximum temperature fluctuation of 15ºC was applied during a period of 20 days and these conditions did not increase the germination of S. tomentosa or E. speciosa. These results may indicate that these seeds require larger fluctuation of temperature than the applied or/and longer period of exposition to the temperature fluctuation. Blocking experiments water inlet combined with SEM analysis of the structures of seed coat for both species showed that besides the lens, the hilum and micropyle are involved in water absorption in seeds scarified with hot water. In seeds of E. speciosa the immersion of scarified seeds into an aniline aqueous solution showed that the solution first entered the seed through the hilum. Both species showed seed morphological and anatomical features for seed coats of the subfamily Faboideae. Lignin and callose were found around all palisade layers and the water impermeability and ecological role of these substances are discussed in the work.

A água de coco contém várias substâncias não caracterizadas e é amplamente utilizada na alimentação humana. Neste estudo, foram detectados e quantificados ácido ascórbico e ácido cafeico e polifenóis totais em diversas variedades de coco, e usando HPLC-MS-MS (25,8 ± 0,6 µg-mL, 1,078 ± 0,013 µg-mL and 99,7 µg-mL, respectivamente, em água de coco do anão verde, ou 10 mg, 539 µg e 39,8 mg por unidades de coco consumido, 500 ± 50 mL). O potencial antioxidante da água de coco das quatro variedades de coqueiro (anão verde, anão amarelo, anão vermelho e amarelo malasiano) foi comparada com água de coco industrializada e água liofilizada da variedade anão verde. Todas as variedades foram eficazes - com destaque para as propriedades antioxidantes do anão verde, uma vez que é o mais comum usado – no sequestro do radical DPPH (IC50=73 µL), óxido nítrico (0,1 mL com IP de 29,9%) e inibindo a produção de espécies reativas com o ácido tiobarbitúrico (1 mL com IP de 34,4%) in vitro. Em cultura de células, a água de coco da variedade anão verde foi eficiente na proteção contra danos oxidativos induzidos por peróxido de hidrogênio.

Coconut water contains several uncharacterized substances and is widely used in the human consumption. In this paper we detected and quantified ascorbic acid and caffeic acid and total phenolics in several varieties of coconut using HPLS-MS-MS (25.8 ± 0.6 µg-mL and 1.078 ± 0.013 µg-mL and 99.7 µg-mL, respectively, in the green dwarf coconut water, or 10 mg and 539 µg and 39.8 mg for units of coconut consumed, 500 ± 50 mL). The antioxidant potential of four coconut varieties (green dwarf, yellow dwarf, red dwarf and yellow Malaysian) was compared with two industrialized coconut waters and the lyophilized water of the green dwarf variety. All varieties were effective in scavenging the DPPH radical (IC50=73 µL) and oxide nitric (0.1 mL with an IP of 29.9%) as well as in inhibiting the in vitro production of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (1 mL with an IP of 34.4%), highlighting the antioxidant properties of the green dwarf which it is the most common used. In cell culture, the green dwarf water was efficient in protecting against oxidative damages induced by hydrogen peroxide.

Mentha x piperita L. var. piperita (hortelã-pimenta) é bastante utilizada devido à presença de óleos essenciais, principalmente pelo componente mentol, produzidos nos tricomas glandulares. Foi avaliada a influência da intensidade de luz e da adubação do substrato na quantidade e qualidade do óleo essencial. As intensidades de luz utilizadas foram 100%, 70% e 50% da luz solar total e dois níveis de nutrição do substrato aplicados, solo de mata e solo de mata com adição de adubo orgânico. A alta intensidade de luz e a adubação favoreceram o crescimento em biomassa, influenciando no rendimento do óleo essencial por planta. A intensidade de luz e a adubação influenciaram na qualidade do óleo essencial, apresentando as plantas sob luz solar plena e adubadas apresentaram maior concentração relativa de mentol que plantas sombreadas ou sem adubo. O mentol foi o componente majoritário encontrado no óleo essencial.

Mentha x piperita L. var. piperita (mint pepper) is utilized due to the presence of essential oils, mainly because of the component menthol produced in glandular trichomes. The influence of light intensity and substratum fertility was evaluated on the amount produced and quality of the essential oil. The light intensities utilized were 100%, 70% and 50% of the total solar light and two levels of nutrition of the substratum were applied (forest soil and forest soil with addition of organic fertilizer. The high light intensity and the addition of fertilizer favored the growth in biomass, influencing in this sense the production of the essential oil per plant. The light intensity and the addition of fertilizer influenced the oil quality, showing the plants under full sun light and fertilization with higher menthol content than plants in shadow or without fertilization. Menthol was the major component of the essential oil.

Reófitas são espécies vegetais confinadas aos leitos de rios e riachos de fortes corredeiras, crescendo acima do nível das inundações, mas não além do alcance da ocorrência regular das rápidas enchentes. A morfoanatomia foliar de Raulinoa echinata R.S.Cowan (Rutaceae) foi investigada objetivando compreender a adaptação às peculiaridades do hábitat reofítico. As folhas de R. echinata são dorsiventrais e hipoestomáticas. A epiderme é uniestratificada e os estômatos são anomocíticos. As células-guarda estão dispostas acima do nível das demais células epidérmicas (característica hidromórfica), mas com átrio externo conspícuo (característica xeromórfica). Aspectos mais marcantes relacionados ao hábitat reofítico são estenofilia e presença de suberina nas paredes periclinais internas das células epidérmicas. A área foliar varia com a intensidade de exposição ao sol, a densidade estomática varia com o fluxo do rio; as espessuras dos tecidos do mesofilo variam com ambas condições. Ductos secretores e idioblastos com cristais de fosfato de cálcio ocorrem no mesofilo. Os dados revelaram plasticidade da estrutura foliar às condições peculiares do ambiente reofítico e as condições sombreadas ou expostas ao sol.

Rheophytes are plants confined to the beds of swift-running streams and rivers, growing above flood level but not beyond the normal reach of flash floods. Leaf morphoanatomy of the rheophyte Raulinoa echinata R.S.Cowan (Rutaceae) was investigated with a focus on understanding adaptation to the peculiarities of the rheophytic habitat. R. echinata leaves are dorsiventral and hypostomatic. The epidermis has a single layer of cells and the stomata are anomocytic. The guard cells rise above the level of the other epidermal cells (a hydromorphic characteristic), but with a conspicuous outer cavity (a xeromorphic characteristic). Prominent traits related to the rheophytic habitat are stenophylls and the presence of suberin on the inner periclinal walls of the epidermal cells. Leaf area varies with sun exposure while stomatal density varies with river flow. In R. echinata, mesophyll tissue thickness varies with light intensity and river flow. Secretory cavities and idioblasts with calcium phosphate crystals occur in the mesophyll. The data revealed leaf-structure plasticity in relation to the singular conditions of the rheophytic environment as well as to shade or sunlight.

Dados sobre a prevalência e a população de Salmonella em alimentos implicados em surtos podem contribuir na condução de análises de risco. Dessa forma, o objetivo desse estudo foi determinar a quantidade de Salmonella sp. presente em alimentos implicados em surtos ocorridos no Rio Grande do Sul em 2005 e caracterizar os isolados por meio de técnicas fenotípicas e genotípicas. Dezenove amostras de alimentos obtidas em dez surtos ocorridos em 2005 e identificadas como positivas para Salmonella no Laboratório Central da Secretaria da Saúde do Estado do Rio Grande do Sul foram incluídas no estudo. A quantificação de Salmonella foi feita pela técnica do Número Mais Provável (NMP). Ao lado disto, uma colônia de Salmonella obtida de cada amostra de alimento foi submetida à sorotipificação, macro-restição com XbaI e determinação de resistência a antimicrobianos. Salmonella esteve presente em alimentos a base de ovos, maionese e frango em oito surtos. As contagens mais elevadas (>10(7) NMP.g-1) foram detectadas principalmente em alimentos contendo maionese. O isolamento de Salmonella de vários alimentos em cinco surtos resultou, provavelmente, da contaminação cruzada, enquanto as elevadas contagens encontradas, em quase todos os alimentos, podem ser explicadas por armazenamento em temperatura inadequada. Todos os isolados foram identificados como S. Enteritidis, e apenas um perfil foi encontrado na macro-restrição, demonstrando a predominância de um grupo clonal desse sorovar nos surtos de salmonelose. Uma baixa freqüência de isolados de S. Enteritidis resistentes a antimicrobianos foi encontrada, sendo a resistência ao ácido nalidíxico o único perfil encontrado.

Data concerning the prevalence and populations of Salmonella in foods implicated in outbreaks may be important to the development of quantitative microbial risk assessments of individual food products. In this sense, the objective of the present study was to assess the amount of Salmonella sp. in different foods implicated in foodborne outbreaks in Rio Grande do Sul occurred in 2005 and to characterize the isolated strains using phenotypic and genotypic methods. Nineteen food samples involved in ten foodborne outbreaks occurred in 2005, and positive on Salmonella isolation at the Central Laboratory of the Health Department of the State of Rio Grande do Sul, were included in this study. Food samples were submitted to estimation of Salmonella using the Most Probable Number (MPN) technique. Moreover, one confirmed Salmonella colony of each food sample was serotyped, characterized by its XbaI-macrorestriction profile, and submitted to antimicrobial resistance testing. Foods containing eggs, mayonnaise or chicken were contaminated with Salmonella in eight outbreaks. Higher counts (>10(7) MPN.g-1) of Salmonella were detected mostly in foods containing mayonnaise. The isolation of Salmonella from multiple food items in five outbreaks probably resulted from the cross-contamination, and the high Salmonella counts detected in almost all analyzed samples probably resulted from storing in inadequate temperature. All strains were identified as S. Enteritidis, and presented a unique macrorestriction profile, demonstrating the predominance of one clonal group in foods involved in the salmonellosis outbreaks. A low frequency of antimicrobial resistant S. Enteritidis strains was observed and nalidixic acid was the only resistance marker detected.
