Antimicrobial Activity of Solanum torvum Crude Extracts against Important Mycobacterial Strains.
BACKGROUND: Tuberculosis (TB) caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tb) complex remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. The zoonotic infectious condition represents a never-ending challenge for which drug discovery efforts are needed. The current study was designed to evaluate the in vitro antimycobacterial activity and phytochemical composition of hydroethanolic extracts from roots, stem bark, leaves, and unripe fruits derived from Solanum torvum, a shrub traditionally used against respiratory tract illnesses, including TB. METHODS: The phenotypic colorimetric micropl

OBJECTIVE: to evaluate the toxic effect of an aqueous extract of Solanum torvum on microorganisms responsible for genitourinary infections as well as the adverse effects on sperm cells. METHODS: it was determined the microbial toxicity of a freeze-dried aqueous extract (obtained from the leaves and stems of Solanum torvum), against wild strains of Escherichia coli, Neisseria gonorrhoeae and Candida albicans, using the test of poisoning in culture medium at concentrations of 50, 100 and 200 mg/mL. The response-was evaluated with the colony diameter (mm). Then, it was evaluated the toxicological
PubMed: 23234737Tamarillo (
INTRODUCTION: During processing, a large amount of by-products is produced from tamarillo fruits in the form of stalks, outer skins, and pomace (residual seeds and inner skins). This material is a renewable source of bioactive compounds with high economic value and positive effects on human health. Previous reviews have focused on the ethnobotanical, traditional uses, and phytochemistry of the tamarillo fruit. This report aims to compile production and cultivation data, as well as the valorization of this agro-industrial residue, green extraction methods used for extracting the bioactive compo

The etiology of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is not yet known, but many factors such as defects in the immune system, oxidative stress, microbial content in the gastrointestinal tract, nuclear factor (NF)-κB, nitric oxide (NO), cyclooxygenase-2 (Cox-2), and leukotriene B4 (LB4) are thought to play a role in its pathogenesis. In traditional Iranian medicine (TIM), several medicinal plants are thought to be effective for the treatment of IBD. In this study, information on all of these remedies were derived from all available old sources such as documents or notes and books and were added to
PubMed: 20857519Potential lipid-lowering effects of Northern Thai vegetable extracts on the inhibition of cholesterol absorption: emerging in vitro and in vivo models.
Obesity has emerged as a major health issue caused by the alteration of lipid profiles, including hypercholesterolemia, hypertriglyceridemia, and dyslipidemia, necessitating the prevention of hyperlipidemia. Several local Thai vegetables have been recognized for their potent anti-oxidant properties. However, there is limited information regarding their lipid-lowering effects. Therefore, this study aims to investigate and identify the mechanisms underlying the cholesterol-reducing effects of functional ingredients derived from the aqueous extracts of seven local Thai vegetables using in vitro,

En segundo lugar, se investigó la actividad antimicrobiana de la planta contra la tuberculosis utilizando modelos in vitro (PMID 40953202). Los resultados mostraron que la corteza del tallo presentó una concentración mínima inhibitoria (MIC) de una concentración determinada, lo que valida el uso tradicional de la planta para enfermedades respiratorias, aunque se requiere más investigación para aislar los compuestos específicos [PMID 41342215].
Seguridad y Precauciones
La seguridad del consumo de la Berenjena cimarrona (Solanum torvum) es un tema de extrema precaución debido a su compleja composición química. En relación con el embarazo y la lactancia, no existen estudios clínicos que garanticen la ausencia de efectos teratogénicos o riesgos para el desarrollo fetal; por lo tanto, su uso está contraindicado en estas etapas. La falta de evidencia sobre la transferencia de compuestos bioactivos a través de la leche materna obliga a una postura de máxima prudencia para proteger al lactante. En cuanto a la población pediátrica, el uso en niños menores de 12 años debe evitarse estrictamente, dado que sus sistemas metabólicos y de filtración renal están en desarrollo y la toxicidad de los alcaloides de la familia Solanaceae puede ser severa. Respecto a las interacciones farmacológicas, la planta presenta riesgos significativos con la metformina, debido a que sus extractos pueden potenciar la inhibición de enzimas como la α-glucosidasa y la α-amilasa, lo que podría provocar hipoglucemia severa al sumar efectos hipoglucemiantes [PMID 39359905, 36030588]. Asimismo, su capacidad para modular la homeostasis de lípidos y la absorción de colesterol podría interferir con fármacos hipolipemiantes.
