Cytotoxic fractions from the leaves of Tachia grandiflora
This work is part of a larger screening program, which seeks to discover new antitumor plants and compounds from the Brazilian Amazon. In a prescreen of stem and leaf extracts of Tachia grandiflora Maguire & Weaver (Gentianaceae) based on the SRB method, leaf methanol and ethanol extracts showed app...

The most active subfractions were tested against five tumor cell lines (leukemia CEM and HL-60, as well as the three used previously) using the MTT assay, and four fractions demonstrated significant cytotoxicity based on IC50. Cell lysis was discarded as a possible mechanism for in vitro cytotoxicity given that these fractions did not exhibit hemolytic activity. The greatest antiproliferative potential was found in the second (two samples) and third generation (two samples) chromatographic subfractions of the chloroform fraction (obtained from partitioning of the ethanol extract). These subfractions proved to be complex mixtures from which no pure substance could be isolated after further chromatographic separations. © 2007 Informa Healthcare. 2020-06-15T22:02:27Z 2020-06-15T22:02:27Z 2007 Artigo https://repositorio.inpa.gov.br/handle/1/18656 10.1080/13880200701215422 en Volume 45, Número 5, Pags. 429-433 Restrito Pharmaceutical Biology |
