a notable species in the Atlantic Forest, has been traditionally employed in folk medicine for treating rheumatism, asthma, and worms. This study investigated the cellular antioxidant, antiproliferative, and anti-inflammatory activities of the essential oils (EOs) and crude extracts (CEs) from flowers, fruits, and leaves. The chemical identification of EOs was performed by GC-MS and CEs by UHPLC-MS. Cellular antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities were assessed through mouse macrophage cell culture. In addition, the antiproliferative potential was evaluated in gastric, colorectal, breast, and lung tumor cell lines and non-tumor VERO cells. EOs predominantly contained organosulfur compounds in flowers (96.29%), fruits (94.94%), and leaves (90.72%). We found the main compound is 2,2'-Disulfanediyldiethanethiol in the EOs of flowers (47.00%), leaves (41.82%), and fruits (44.39%). Phenolic compounds were identified in CEs. The EOs and CEs demonstrated potential against the tumor cell lines tested (GI between 51 and 230 µg/mL). The selectivity index values were greater than 1.0 (1.01 to 3.37), suggesting a relative safety profile. Moreover, the anti-inflammatory activity IC ranged from 36.00 to 268 µg/mL, and the cellular oxidation inhibition ranged from 69% to 82%. The results suggest that oils and extracts derived from have potential for use in various industrial sectors.
一种在大西洋森林中显著的物种,传统上被用于民间医学治疗风湿、哮喘和蠕虫。本研究调查了花、果和叶的精油(EOs)和粗提取物(CEs)的细胞抗氧化、抗增殖和抗炎活性。EOs 通过 GC-MS 进行化学鉴定,CEs 通过 UHPLC-MS 进行鉴定。通过小鼠巨噬细胞培养评估细胞抗氧化和抗炎活性。此外,在胃、结直肠、乳腺和肺癌肿瘤细胞系以及非肿瘤 VERO 细胞中评估了抗增殖潜力。EOs 在花(96.29%)、果(94.94%)和叶(90.72%)中主要含有含硫化合物。我们发现 EOs 中的主要化合物是花(47.00%)、叶(41.82%)和果(44.39%)中的 2,2'-Disulfanediyldiethanethiol。CEs 中鉴定出了酚类化合物。EOs 和 CEs 对测试的肿瘤细胞系表现出潜在的作用(GI 为 51 至 230 µg/mL)。选择性指数值大于 1.0(1.01 至 3.37),表明相对安全。此外,抗炎活性 IC 范围为 36.00 至 268 µg/mL,细胞氧化抑制率范围为 69%至 82%。结果表明,从 中提取的油和提取物具有在各个工业领域应用的潜力。
