No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2021-09-07; OBJECTIVES: This study was carried out to evaluate the effects of flavonoids present in leaves of Passiflora edulis fruit on complications induced by diabetes in rats. METHODS: The extract of P. edulis leaf was obtained by 70% ethanol maceration. From the dry extract, the fractions were obtained by cons...
Passion fruit (Passiflora edulis) leaf extract modulates the oxidative metaboli...
Araújo, Cleiber Lucan Alves; Salles, Bruno Cesar Correa; Duarte, Stella Maris da Silveira; Rodrigues, Maria Rita; Paula, Fernanda Borges de AraújoThis study was conducted to evaluate the effect of extracts of Passiflora edulis Sims leaves on the oxidative metabolism of rat peritoneal neutrophils using a model of acute inflammation. The extract was obtained by maceration in 70% ethanol, evaporation under reduced pressure and lyophilisation. Total phenolic content (TP) was determined by the Folin-Ciocalteu assay. The P. edulis extract, in different doses, ...

Martins, Carolina Fernandes Ribas; Salles, Bruno César Corrêa; Brigagão, Maisa Ribeiro Pereira Lima; Rodrigues, Maria Rita; Ferreira, Eric BatistaThis study was conducted to evaluate the effects of the ethanolic extract of Passiflora edulis leaves on blood glucose, protein glycation, NADPH oxidase activity and macrophage phagocytic capacity after Candida albicans exposure in diabetic rats. The Passiflora edulis Sims leaves were dried to 40°C, powdered, extracted by maceration in 70% ethanol, evaporated under reduced pressure and lyophilised. The biochemi...
Evaluation of the protective effect of guava fruits and leaves on oxidative str...
Freire, Juliana Mesquita; Abreu, Celeste Maria Patto de; Duarte, Stella Maris da Silveira; Paula, Fernanda Borges Araújo de; Lima, Adriene RibeiroOxidative stress is an imbalance between reactive oxygen species and antioxidant capacity of action. Thus, research, alternative to mitigate the damaging effects of oxidative stress, improving the body´s antioxidant capacity, prevented the disease and its complicatons. The leaves and fruits of guava are rich in the antioxidants. This work aimed to study the effect of flour and ethanolic/acetone extracts leaves ...
