Fingerprint Analysis of Buriti (Mauritia flexuosa) Using Paper Spray Mass Spectrometry [PDF]
ABSTRACT A straightforward and efficient approach using paper spray ionization mass spectrometry (PS‐MS) was employed to detect fixed constituents in all anatomical parts of buriti, a native Brazilian fruit. This ambient mass spectrometry technique requires minimal sample preparation and was applied in both positive and negative ion modes. In total, 61

Inhibitors of Sodium‐Dependent Serotonin Transporter Protein (SERT) as Potential New Nematicides [PDF]
ABSTRACT Nematodes of the genus Meloidogyne cause major losses in agricultural production worldwide. To identify potentially useful chemical structures for developing new nematicides, this study initially aimed to determine in silico – using computationally efficient techniques – the protein target of chaetoglobosins A and B in these nematodes.

Phytochemicals with potential NMDAR-inhibitory activities: a review of neuroprotective mechanisms against excitotoxicity [PDF]
The N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDARs) are ionotropic glutamate receptors in the central nervous system (CNS) that play a crucial role in synaptic plasticity, learning, and memory. However, NMDAR overstimulation is a critical pathological feature in

Role of GABAergic antagonism in the neuroprotective effects of bilobalide [PDF]
Bilobalide, a constituent of Ginkgo biloba, has neuroprotective properties. Its mechanism of action is unknown but it was recently found to block GABA(A) receptors. The goal of this study was to test the potential role of a GABAergic mechanism for the neuroprotective activity of bilobalide.
