(2008-12) BARBOSA, Wagner Luiz Ramos; PINTO, Lucianna do Nascimento; QUIGNARD, Etienne Louis Jacques; VIEIRA, José Maria dos Santos; SILVA JÚNIOR, José Otávio Carréra; ALBUQUERQUE, Sérgio de
Arrabidaea chica (HBK.) Verlot (Bignoniaceae) vernacular name "Pariri", is a climbing shrub, widespread from South Mexico to Guyana and central Brazil and is traditionally indicated to treat symptoms of inflammations and skin affections. Its ethanol extract was chemically investigated and tested against yeasts and dermatophytic fungi. The trypanocidal activity of the same extract was also evaluated. This work reports the isolation of three flavonoids, the total growth inhibition of Trichophyton mentagrophytes and a significant trypanocidal effect of the ethanol extract and its fractions. No relevant acute toxicity was detected even at a dose of 1000 mg/kg

Flavonóides de Cissus verticillata e a atividade hipoglicemiante do chá de suas folhas
(2002) BARBOSA, Wagner Luiz Ramos; SANTOS, Wallace Raimundo Araujo dos; PINTO, Lucianna do Nascimento; TAVARES, Isabel Cecília de Castro
Cissus verticillata, a Vitaceae very used in the traditional medicine in Pará and Minas Gerais State – Brazil, was investigated in order to validate its indication for the hyperglycaemia control. The aqueous extract reduces the normal glycaemia of male white Wistar rats in about 19.5 %. The hypoglycaemic effect of this extract could be related to the flavonoids found in the preparation. Luteolin, Kaempferol and Luteolin-3'-sulphate could be isolated from the aqueous extract after acid hydrolysis. Cissus

Plantas medicinais utilizadas em comunidades do município de Igarapé-Miri, Pará: etnofarmácia do município de Igarapé-Miri-Pará
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2008-08-08) PINTO, Lucianna do Nascimento; BARBOSA, Wagner Luiz Ramos; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1372405563294070
In IgarapéMiri, as well throughout the state of Pará, the use of medicinal plants to treat many illnesses is very usual. In the same way, in some states in Brazil official programs of medicinal plants have been registered and to follow the plant species used in the folk phytotherapy ethnoguided methodologies are applied mainly ethnobotany and ethnopharmacology. From the Pharmaceutical Sciences Ethopharmacy was elaborated, which has been worldwide used to approach medicinal plants and to evaluate the remedies prepared from them. The general aim of this work is to contribute for the consolidation of Ethnopharmacy and the implementation of the PNPMF in the state of Pará, bringing information collected about indication of medicinal plants, preparation and administration of vegetal remedies and problems related to the use of them. More specifically, it aims to determine the regional nosogeography, to identify and to select the used phytotherapeutical resources for the treatment of the prevalent illnesses, to know and to characterise from the pharmaceutical point of view the remedies made with vegetable base, as well as elaborating cards with information about selected vegetables, these are other objectives considered here. The tool to reach these objectives is the ethnopharmaceutical survey which associates elements of other ethnoguided methods with the content of the Pharmaceutical Care. Applied in eighty six communities of the city, at two moments, first in the year 2000 and in March/April 2008, the method supplied data which were tabulated using Excel to make tables and graphs. Thus, 91 illnesses, 236 plants species, distributed through 72 botanical families, and in 7 different forms of administration. Thirty eight adverse events could also be identified. Cards with botanical, chemical and ethnopharmaceutical information were elaborated for the four plants species with highest relative citation frequencies.
