Nitensidine A, a guanidine alkaloid from Pterogyne nitens, induces osteoclastic cell death. [PDF]

Cytotechnology, 2015
Nitensidine A is a guanidine alkaloid isolated from Pterogyne nitens, a common plant in South America. To gain insight into the biological activity of P. nitens-produced compounds, we examined herein their biological effects on osteoclasts, multinucleated giant cells that regulate bone metabolism by resorbing bone. Among four guanidine alkaloids (i.e.,

Myeloperoxidase Inhibitory and Radical Scavenging Activities of Flavones from Pterogyne nitens

Chemical and Pharmaceutical Bulletin, 2008
Two new flavone glucosides, nitensosides A and B (1, 2), together with four known compounds, sorbifolin (3), sorbifolin 6-O-beta-glucopyranoside (4), pedalitin (5), and pedalitin 6-O-beta-glucopyranoside (6) were isolated from Pterogyne nitens. Their structures were elucidated from 1D and 2D NMR analysis, as well as by high resolution mass spectrometry.

Rapid viability analysis in Pterogyne nitens Tul. by the tetrazolium test

CONTRIBUCIONES A LAS CIENCIAS SOCIALES, 2023
Pterogyne nitens Tul., also known as brave peanut, is a native tree species, with economic and ecological importance, occurring from the Northeast to the South of Brazil. For most forest species, the standard germination test requires a relatively long time to obtain results, which is why tests such as the tetrazolium test have been widely used, as ...

Broad Protein Spectrum in Stored Pollen of Three Stingless Bees from the Chaco Dry Forest in South America (Hymenoptera, Apidae, Meliponini) and Its Ecological Implications

Psyche: A Journal of Entomology, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015
Protein content of pollen stored by three meliponine species was variable from 9.78% (less than half the value considered as optimal to brood development in Apis mellifera) in type Capparis tweediana‐C. speciosa to more than 26% in type Maytenus vitis-idaea and some Prosopis samples.

Nematostatic activity of isoprenylated guanidine alkaloids from Pterogyne nitens and their interaction with acetylcholinesterase

Experimental Parasitology, 2023
Although new nematicides have appeared, the demand for new products less toxic and more efficient for the control of plant-parasitic nematodes are still high. Consequently, studies on natural secondary metabolites from plants, to develop new nematicides, have increased.
