Exploring the potential anti-inflammatory and wound-healing proprieties of Cepa...
Errajouani, Fatima; Bakrim, Hanane; Hourfane, Sohaib; Louajri, Adnane; Rocha, João Miguel; El Aouad, Noureddine; Laglaoui, AminLong before its popularization as a skincare ingredient, snail slime was reported to have a variety of health-promoting attributes. Its medicinal use involved the treatment of ailments, such as anthrax, hernias, stomach pain, chest pain, as well as tuberculosis. The main aim of this study was to investigate the anti-inflammatory and wound-healing properties of snail slime from Cepaea hortensis (Müller, 1774) (b...
Chemical composition and biological screening of the essential oils of Micromer...
El Yaagoubi, Mohamed; Mechqoq, Hicham; Ortiz, Sergio; Cavaleiro, Carlos; Lecsö‐Bornet, Marylin; Pereira, Catarina; Rodrigues, Maria JoaoThe chemical composition and in vitro biological activities of the essential oil (EO) of Micromeria macrosiphon Coss. and M. arganietorum (J. Emb.) R. Morales, two Lamiaceae endemic to south Morocco, were investigated. GC/MS analysis resulted in the identification of 36 metabolites from the EO of M. macrosiphon, 45 from M. arganietorum. Borneol was the major metabolite in both oils and together with related der...
Chemical composition, antibacterial screening and cytotoxic activity of Chiliad...
El Yaagoubi, Mohamed; Ortiz, Sergio; Mechqoq, Hicham; Cavaleiro, Carlos; Lecso-Bornet, Marylin; Rodrigues, Maria Joao; Custódio, LuísaThe chemical composition and in vitro antibacterial and cytotoxic activities of the essential oil (EO) of Chiliadenus antiatlanticus (Emb. & Maire) Gomiz, an asteraceous species endemic to the southwest of Morocco, were investigated. The EO yield was 1.07 +/- 0.28 %, twenty-seven metabolites were identified representing more than 96.4 % of the total composition. Camphor (35.7 %) and derivatives, borneol (4.9 %)...
High-content screening of natural products reveals novel nuclear export inhibitors
Cautain, Bastien; de Pedro, Nuria; Garzon, Virginia Murillo; de Escalona, Maria Munoz; Menendez, Victor Gonzalez; Tormo, Jose R.; Martin, JesusNatural products are considered an extremely valuable source for the discovery of new drugs against diverse pathologies. As yet, we have only explored a fraction of the diversity of bioactive compounds, and opportunities for discovering new natural products leading to new drugs are huge. In the present study, U2nesRELOC, a previously established cell-based imaging assay, was employed to screen a collection of e...
