Lepisanthes rubiginosa
Lepisanthes rubiginosa
Lepisanthes rubiginosa is a plant traditionally not associated with any specific medicinal uses. Scientific research has identified three new triterpenoid saponins and a farnesyl glycoside from its essential oil, showing moderate anticholinesterase activity against both acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase. Additionally, two new glycosides were found in the leaves, and one known compound demonstrated significant cytotoxic activity against four human cancer cell lines. However, the evidence is limited, and more research is needed to confirm these findings. No major safety concerns or recorded drug interactions have been noted thus far.

Ce que dit la science
- Two new glycosides were identified from Lepisanthes rubiginosa leaves, and one of the known compounds showed significant cytotoxic activity against some human cancer cell lines.
- L'huile essentielle de Lepisanthes rubiginosa a montré une activité modérée anticholinestérase contre l'acétylcholinestérase et la butyrylcholinestérase.
- L'étude a identifié trois nouveaux saponines triterpéniques et un glycoside farnésyle provenant de Lepisanthes rubiginosa, ainsi que deux composés connus, mais aucune activité antibactérienne significative n'a été trouvée.
- L'étude rapporte la première observation de structures productrices de soie chez A. aegyptindicae et Aculops knorri, et constate que Cisaberoptus kenyae et Aceria aegyptindicae forment un clade bien soutenu qui coexistent fréquemment sur les feuilles du mango.
