Resumo: | Plant extracts exist as a complex matrix which serves as a source of numerous bioactive metabolites. The ultra performance liquid chromatography with diode-array detection-coupled electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry technique was used to characterize the aqueous extract from leaves of Alchornea glandulosa (EAG), a species popularly used to treat gastrointestinal problems as an antiulcer agent. Quantification of phenolic derivatives was determined using Folin–Ciocalteu and aluminum trichloride (AlCl3) methods. In addition, antioxidant (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl [DPPH• ] radical scavenging, β-carotene–linoleic acid, and lipid peroxidation), antibacterial (agar well diffusion method and minimum inhibitory concentration), antimutagenic (Ames test), and antigenotoxic (plasmid cleavage) assays were also performed on this plant extract. The ellagitannin tris-galloyl-hexahydroxydiphenic acid-glucose was identified as the predominant compound along with tannins as majority metabolites. EAG showed high antioxidant activity accompanied by moderate antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus. The highest antimutagenic activity was observed for TA97 strain without metabolic activation (S9) and with metabolic activation, TA100 and TA102 were completely inhibited. In addition, EAG exhibited potential signs of antigenotoxic action. The high antioxidant and antimutagenic activity observed for EAG suggests important therapeutic uses that still need to be verified in future studies. |
