Integrated Analysis of the Transcriptome and Metabolome of Cecropia obtusifolia: A Plant with High Chlorogenic Acid Content Traditionally Used to Treat Diabetes Mellitus [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020 This investigation cultured Cecropia obtusifolia cells in suspension to evaluate the effect of nitrate deficiency on the growth and production of chlorogenic acid (CGA), a secondary metabolite with hypoglycemic and hypolipidemic activity that acts directly on type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Oecologia, 1992 The effect of defence force size in colonies of the ant Azteca muelleri on the time spent to localize, attack and expel the specialized herbivorous beetle Coelomera ruficornis from Cecropia pachystachya bushes was studied in an area of Atlantic forest in northeastern Brazil. Our results show that Azteca muelleri expel Coelomera ruficornis from Cecropia

Parenchyma: a neglected plant tissue in the Cecropia/ant mutualism
Symbiosis, 2011The Cecropia/Azteca association is a well studied and perhaps the best known mutualistic system in the Neotropics. In this study we assessed the ultrastructure of the parenchymal tissue of the septum inside the internodes of two Cecropia species, Cecropia obtusifolia (a myrmecophytic species) and C.

Cardiovascular effects of the South American medicinal plant Cecropia pachystachya (ambay) on rats
Journal of Ethnopharmacology, 2005Cecropia pachystachya is used in South America for relieving cough and asthma. In Argentina it is known as "ambay" and grows in the neotropical forests (Ntr C.p.) and in temperate hilly regions (Tp C.p.). To evaluate their cardiovascular profile, the effect of extracts obtained from plants growing in the neotropical region as well as in temperate areas

Phytochemical Analysis, 2023
AbstractIntroductionCecropia angustifolia Trécul. is a native Andean plant containing high levels of pentacyclic triterpenes (PTs), including several isobaric molecules that serve as chemical markers. Preclinical studies suggest that PTs positively modulate metabolic and vascular diseases.

Annals of the Entomological Society of America, 1967
In the autumn and winter of 1965–66, 482 cocoons of Hyalophora cecropia (L.) were collected in urban environments in and near Champaign and Urbana, Illinois. In this area at least 26 plants of 12 families—all woody, dicotyledonous angiosperms—serve as hosts. Acer saccharinum L., Cornus stolonifera Michx., and C. alba L. are the most frequently utilized.

HOST‐PLANT UTILIZATION BY HYALOPHORA CECROPIA AS AFFECTED BY PRIOR FEEDING EXPERIENCE
Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, 1982Hyalophora cecropia larvae were switched at the beginning of the penultimate stadium from one host‐plant species to another to test whether prior feeding on one host‐species alters the ability of larvae to utilize a new host‐species. Larvae accepted the new hosts, survived and grew normally.
