Leaf material was obtained from a germinated seed that was clonally propagated using in vitro tissue culturing. Compounds 1-4 showed structural similarity with maesasaponins and maesabalides reported before from other Maesa spp. All four compounds showed in vitro activity against Plasmodium falciparum K1 and Leishmania infantum at micromolar concentrations. However, the observed inhibitory action must be considered nonspecific since they were also cytotoxic in the same concentration range.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Antiprotozoal Agents,Cell Line,Cell Survival,Humans,Myrsinaceae,Nuclear Magnetic Resonance, Biomolecular,Plant Extracts,Plant Leaves,Saponins,Triterpenes[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]antiprotozoal activity,Maesa argentea,maesabalides,maesasaponins,Myrsinaceae,saponins[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]https://doi.org/10.1055/s-0042-118189[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
