Pilocarpus microphyllus seedling growth threatened by climate change: an ecophysiological approach

Theoretical and Applied Climatology, 2021
The climate change endangers many species of the Amazon Forest. An example, in the endangered medicinal species Pilocarpus microphyllus (popularly known as jaborandi). The jaborandi is a natural source of alkaloids used for serious diseases, essential for medical use.

Production of pilocarpine in callus of jaborandi (pilocarpus microphyllus stapf)

In Vitro Cellular and Developmental Biology - Plant, 2005
Summary Jaborandi (Pilocarpus microphyllus) is the only known source of pilocarpine, and although this alkaloid is the only natural compound used to treat glaucoma, very little is known about its metabolism. Calluses obtained from petioles of P. microphyllus leaves were partially immersed in MS (Murashige and Skoog) liquid medium containing different ...

Reference genes for quantitative RT-PCR of the pilocarpine producer Pilocarpus microphyllus and two other Pilocarpus species

Theoretical and Experimental Plant Physiology, 2017
Members of the genus Pilocarpus are the only natural source of the imidazole alkaloid pilocarpine, a plant metabolite widely used in the pharmaceutical industry. Although there is variation in the pilocarpine content in Pilocarpus, only the species Pilocarpus spicatus does not have pilocarpine, although it contains other imidazole alkaloids related ...

Characterisation of the membrane transport of pilocarpine in cell suspension cultures of Pilocarpus microphyllus

Journal of Plant Physiology, 2015
Pilocarpine is an alkaloid obtained from the leaves of Pilocarpus genus, with important pharmaceutical applications. Previous reports have investigated the production of pilocarpine by Pilocarpus microphyllus cell cultures and tried to establish the alkaloid biosynthetic route.

Development and validation of a rapid RP-HPLC-DAD analysis method for the quantification of pilocarpine in Pilocarpus microphyllus (Rutaceae)

Food and Chemical Toxicology, 2018
A method using high performance liquid chromatography with diode array detector (HPLC-DAD) for identification and quantification of pilocarpine in the extract of Pilocarpus microphyllus, popularly known as jaborandi. The analysis was conducted using RP-18 column (250 mm × 4.6 mm x 5 μm id) and a buffer solution composed of acidified water, phosphoric ...
