Quais são algumas aplicações potenciais dessas plantas medicinais na terapia do câncer?
Resume: Several medicinal plants from the Brazilian Cerrado have been studied for
their antioxidant and anticancer properties. Some of these plants include: 1.
Stryphnodendron adstringens (barbatimão): Studied for its antiulcerogenic and
antifungal effects 1. 2. Campomanesia adamantium (Guavira): Investigated for its
antidiabetic properties, anti-inflammatory, and diuretic actions 1. 3. Senna velutina:
Studied for its antitumour activity in a leukaemia cell lineage 1. 4. Jacaranda and
Harconia genera: Other examples of medicinal plants from the Cerrado commonly
used in folk medicine 1. These plants have shown potential in exhibiting antioxidant
and anticancer properties, making them valuable candidates for further research
and potential therapeutic applications.
