Thoa NT, Son NT. The genus Myrsine: A review of phytochemistry, pharmacology, and toxicology. Fitoterapia 2024; 177:106121. [PMID: 38992476 DOI: 10.1016/j.fitote.2024.106121] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/03/2024] [Revised: 07/07/2024] [Accepted: 07/08/2024] [Indexed: 07/13/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Myrsine (the family Primulaceae) contains flowering species. Pharmacologically, the plants of this genus belong to a list of medicinal plants that induce infectious and inflammatory treatments. There are no scientific publications that review phytochemistry and pharmacological activities. OBJECTIVE The compilation and classification of phytochemicals, chromatographic information, essential oils, and pharmacological reviews are the ultimate aim. METHODS References on phytochemical and pharmacological investigations of Myrsine species were collected from various sources, such as Google Scholar, PubMed, and Web of Science from the 1990s to present. The main keyword "Myrsine" was used alone or in combination with others to search for references. RESULTS Chromatographic procedure of Myrsine extracts led to the purification of 134 compounds. Flavonoids, mono-phenols, saponins, quinones, megastigmanes, and lignans were the main phytochemical classes. Myrsine Volatile compounds are monoterpenoids, sesquiterpenoids, and aliphatic compounds. Myrsine constituents established a widespread panel of pharmacological activities, such as cytotoxicity, antioxidant, antimicrobial, anti-parasite, tyrosine inhibition, and hepatoprotection, especially anti-inflammation. Novel flavonoids myrsininones A-B are better than the standard triclosan against bacteria Staphylococcus warneri, S. mutan, S. sanguis, and Actinomyces naeslundii. M. seguinii aerial part ethanolic extract inhibited LPS (lipopolysaccharide)-stimulated inflammatory Raw 264.7 cells via Src/Syk/NF-κB (sarcoma kinase/spleen tyrosine kinase/ nuclear factor-kappa B) and IRAK-1/AP-1 (interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase-1/activating protein-1) signaling inhibition. Generally, Myrsine plant extracts showed no toxicity. CONCLUSION Myrsine constituents are good antimicrobial, antioxidative, and anti-inflammatory agents. However, the majority of earlier research focuses on the pharmacological analyses of M. africana. Thus, comprehensive findings for the remaining species are needed.

Abstract
During the past decades, research on insect cell culture has grown tremendously. Thousands of lines have been established from different species of insect orders, originating from several tissue sources. These cell lines have often been employed in insect science research. In particular, they have played important roles in pest management, where they have been used as tools to evaluate the activity and explore the toxic mechanisms of insecticide candidate compounds. This review intends to first briefly summarize the progression of insect cell line establishment. Then, several recent studies based on insect cell lines coupled with advanced technologies are introduced. These investigations revealed that insect cell lines can be exploited as novel models with unique advantages such as increased efficiency and reduced cost compared with traditional insecticide research. Most notably, the insect cell line-based models provide a global and in-depth perspective to study the toxicology mechanisms of insecticides. However, challenges and limitations still exist, especially in the connection between in vitro activity and in vivo effectiveness. Despite all this, recent advances have suggested that insect cell line-based models promote the progress and sensible application of insecticides, which benefits pest management.

Abstract
Musca domestica L., 1758, is an important mechanical vector of several pathogens for humans and livestock, making it essential to study new alternatives of more efficient and safer control for this dipteran. This study evaluated the toxicity of the phenylpropanoids eugenol and (E)-cinnamaldehyde on its life stages. A contact test with 10 repetitions (n = 10) was performed for each substance concentration on each post-embryonic immature life stage. Both substances presented insecticidal activity on the immature life stages of the dipteran, and secondary effects on development caused by sublethal concentrations. Larvicidal activity was shown from the 1.25 mg/ml concentration by eugenol and from 2.5 mg/ml by (E)-cinnamaldehyde, and both substances had a 100% larval treatment efficacy (LTE) from the 5mg/ml concentration. For pupal treatment, (E)-cinnamaldehyde differed from the control from the 10 mg/ml concentration (P < 0.05), and both phenylpropanoids caused malformation in adults from 10 mg/ml. The highest pupal treatment efficacy (PTE) was obtained from the 30 mg/ml concentration, 67.2% for (E)-cinnamaldehyde, and 32% for eugenol. The products tested in this study showed high larvicidal potential, and both presented pupicidal effects and caused malformation in adults from treated pupae.

Abstract
In this work, we evaluated the ovicidal activity and the deleterious effects of cashew (Anacardium occidentale) nut shell oil and its fractions on the development of Musca domestica and Chrysomya megacephala, important vectors of several diseases. The insecticidal effects of this plant were also measured on the first and second instar larvae of Anticarsia gemmatalis and Spodoptera frugiperda, soy and maize pests, respectively. The fly eggs and the crop pest insect larvae were exposed to the cashew (Anacardium occidentale) nut shell liquid (CNSL) and its fractions: technical CNSL, anacardic acid, cardanol and cardol. The results show that the cardol fraction, for both species of flies, presented the lowest lethal concentration with LC50 of 80.4 mg/L for M. domestica and 90.2 mg/L for C. megacephala. For the mortality of the larvae of A. gemmatalis and S. frugiperda, the most effective fraction was anacardic acid with LC50 of 295.1 mg/L and 318.4 mg/L, respectively. In all species, the mortality rate of the commercial compounds (cypermethrin 600 mg/L and temephos 2 mg/L) was higher than that of the evaluated compounds. Despite this, the results obtained suggest their potential in field trials, once the fractions of A. occidentale presented high mortality at low lethal concentrations in laboratory conditions, with the possibility of integrated use in the control of disease vectors and agricultural pests, employing ecofriendly compounds.

PESTICIDE BIOCHEMISTRY AND PHYSIOLOGY 2018; 152:90-97. [PMID: 30497717 DOI: 10.1016/j.pestbp.2018.09.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/07/2018] [Revised: 09/08/2018] [Accepted: 09/14/2018] [Indexed: 06/09/2023]
Abstract
Itol A, a novel isoryanodane diterpene derived from Itoa orientalis Hemsl., has potent activities against insect pests. This study was conducted to determine the contact toxicity and biochemical effects of itol A on the Nilaparvata lugens. After macropterous females of N. lugens were exposed to itol A from 0.5 to 24 h, the mortality and poisoning symptoms were measured. Effects of itol A on the major enzymes activity and oxidative stress level were assessed in dose-response (with LD10-LD70 at 24 h) and time-course (with LD50 at 0.5-24 h) experiments for the potential toxicity mechanisms. Based on the results, the mortality of N. lugens showed significant dose- and time-dependent effects, with the 24-h LD50 value was 0.58 μg/insect. The symptoms of excitation, convulsion and paralysis were also observed. However, acetylcholinesterases (AChE) activity was not altered after itol A treatment compared to control. Na+/K+-ATPases, Ca2+-ATPases, Ca2+/Mg2+-ATPases, glutathione S-transferases (GSTs), cytochrome P450 monooxygenases (P450s), superoxide dismutases (SOD) and catalases (CAT) activities were significantly reduced in dose-response and time-course experiments. While acid phosphatases (ACP) and glutathione peroxidases (GPX) activities were significantly increased. We further revealed that itol A exposure resulted in the decrease of GSH/GSSG (reduced to oxidized glutathione) ratio and the increase of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels in both experiments. The results indicated that the inhibition of Na+/K+-ATPases, Ca2+-ATPases, Ca2+/Mg2+-ATPases, GSTs, P450s, SOD and CAT activities and the induction of oxidative stress was one of the potential biochemical mechanisms of itol A against N. lugens.
