The antiviral potency of Caulerpa cupressoides (Chlorophyta) sulfated polysaccharidic fractions (Cc-SP1→3) associated with thrombin generation (TG) assay is unknown. This study analyzed the structure of Cc-SP1 and its effects against herpes viruses (HSV-1 and HSV-2), dengue-virus (DENV-1), human-metapneumovirus (HMPV) and adenovirus (AdV) in Vero and mosquito C6/36 cell-lines and as inhibitor of TG in 60-fold d...
Cowpea is an important legume of the Northeast of Brazil and its yield is affected by Colletotrichum fungi. These fungi are known to occur on and cause disease anthracnose on the broad range of plants. In addition, the rapid and transient accumulation of reactive oxygen species, termed ‘oxidative burst’, is one of the earliest observable reaction of plant cells to microbial infection. As plant H2O2 is believed ...
