Studies on anti-complementary activity of extracts and isolated flavones from Ligustrum vulgare and Phillyrea latifolia leaves (Oleaceae).   

METHODS AND RESULTS:

Polar fractions and flavones isolated from methanolic extracts of the leaves of Ligustrum vulgare and Phillyrea latifolia (Oleaceae), whose popular use as an anti-inflammatory is well-known in Mediterranean historical medicine and ethnobotany, showed significant in vitro complement inhibiting effect on the classical pathway of the complement system. 

CONCLUSIONS:

Among the isolated flavonoidic structures, apigenin-7-O-glucoside, apigenin-7-O-rutinoside, luteolin-4'-O-glucoside, luteolin-7-O-glucoside and Ligustroflavone presented remarkable activity.

Identification of Glycosil Flavones and Determination in vitro of Antioxidant and Photoprotective Activities of Alternanthera brasiliana L. Kuntze.  

The study Alternanthera brasiliana (L.) Kuntze aims to prove its effectiveness in folk medicine. 

METHODS AND RESULTS:

From the study of their chemical constitution were identified by LC-MS technique three glycosylated flavones than were called 2"-O-ramnosylvitexin; 4',5,7-trimethoxy-2"-Oramnosylvitexin and Ligustroflavone. The tests showed high antioxidant capacity of the specie and in small concentrations showed too high levels of photoprotection. In addition its high capacity for photoprotection also paves its use in cosmetology. 

CONCLUSIONS:

Alternanthera brasiliana is a species extremely promising with all parameters to become a herbal medicine.
