Assessment of anti-protozoal activity of plants traditionally used in Ecuador in the treatment of leishmaniasis.
AIM OF THE STUDY: For the assessment of the in vitro anti-protozoal potential of plants traditionally used in Ecuador in the treatment of leishmaniasis, a combined approach based on interviews with healers as well as a literature search was carried out. MATERIALS AND METHODS: From three regions of Ecuador, 256 local healers called "Agents of Traditional Medicine" (ATMs) were interviewed about their knowledge of the use of plants to treat and heal the illness recognized by the ATMs as leishmaniasis. From literature sources, 14 plants were identified as being used in the treatment of leishmanias

ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE: Selected Peruvian Amazon plants are macerated into sugar cane distillates to prepare alcoholic beverages used to improve male sexual performance. The tree bark from Campsiandra angustifolia Spruce ex Benth (Fabaceae), Swartzia polyphylla DC (Fabaceae), Minquartia guianensis Aubl. (Olacaceae) and Thynantus panurensis (Bureau) Sandwith (Bignoniaceae) usually are used as crude drugs in mixtures of several ingredients. AIM OF STUDY: Describe the chemical composition of the most traded traditional male enhancer beverages, namely "Levántate Lazaro" and "Siete veces si

AIM OF THE STUDY: In order to evaluate the antimalarial potential of traditional remedies used in Peru, Indigenous and Mestizo populations from the river Nanay in Loreto were interviewed about traditional medication for the treatment of malaria. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The survey took place on six villages and led to the collection of 59 plants. 35 hydro-alcoholic extractions were performed on the 21 most cited plants. The extracts were then tested for antiplasmodial activity in vitro on Plasmodium falciparum chloroquine resistant strain (FCR-3), and ferriprotoporphyrin inhibition test was also
PubMed: 21040768Acute toxicity evaluation of the ethanol extract from Minquartia Guianensis Aubl (Huacapú) leaves: hematological and histopathological analysis in an animal model.
INTRODUCTION: The study of medicinal plants and their potential toxicity arises from the need to address health issues and provide immediate therapeutic solutions. The vast diversity of plants worldwide can lead to confusion regarding their use for food or medicinal purposes, sometimes resulting in intoxications that threaten human health. OBJECTIVE: To assess the acute toxicity of the ethanol extract of Minquartia guianensis Aubl ("huacapú") leaves in Rattus norvegicus Var. "Holtzman". METHODS: M.

BACKGROUND: Palikur Amerindians live in the eastern part of French Guiana which is undergoing deep-seated changes due to the geographical and economic opening of the region. So far, Palikur's traditional ecological knowledge is poorly documented, apart from medicinal plants. The aim of this study was to document ethnobotanical practices related to traditional construction in the region. METHODS: A combination of qualitative and quantitative methods was used. Thirty-nine Palikur men were interviewed in three localities (Saint-Georges de l'Oyapock, Regina and Trois-Palétuviers) between December

Seguridad y Precauciones
SEGURIDAD Y PRECAUCIONES DEL HUACAPÚ (Minquartia guianensis) El uso del Huacapú debe manejarse con extrema precaución, ya que su aplicación es principalmente externa y su toxicidad interna no ha sido plenamente establecida en humanos. A continuación, se detallan los perfiles de seguridad basados en la evidencia botánica disponible. Embarazo y Lactancia: No existe evidencia científica suficiente que garantice la inocuidad del consumo de extractos de Minquartia guianensis en mujeres gestantes o en periodo de lactancia. Debido a la presencia de metabolitos secundarios con actividad biológica potencial, se desaconseja su uso en estas etapas para evitar riesgos de transferencia sistémica al feto o al lactante. Niños: La seguridad en la población pediátrica no ha sido establecida. Debido a la potencia de sus compuestos químicos, no se recomienda su administración en niños sin supervisión médica estricta.
