In the present project, the prospective studies of bioactive molecules will be continued, especially with antiparasitic action (antileishmanial, antitrypanosomal and/or anthelmintic), originating from plant species belonging mainly to Annonaceae, Asteraceae, Lauraceae and Piperaceae occurring in Atlantic Forest and "Cerrado" areas of the State of São Paulo. Initially, selected species wil…
Natural products obtained from Brazilian flora constitute a powerful and diverse source of bioactive molecules, which are increasingly in high demand for the development of new human therapeutics. These bioactive molecules can be considered 'pre-optimized' by Nature to possess bioactivity and 'drug-like' properties. Affirmation of these statements is realized in the fact that more than 50…

There has been a considerable increase in infections by multidrug-resistant microorganisms in the last few years both due to the natural adaptability of these microorganisms to the known antibiotics and especially due to the misuse and overuse of them. Along with that, the current Covid-19 pandemic in which there has been a high rate of antibiotic utilization in patients even with a relat…
Plant species, as well as other natural products, have been used as therapeutics for treatment of several diseases since ancient times. There is great chemodiversity in plants, which make them important sources for new drug development studies, including for neglected diseases such as Chagas Disease. Therefore, this project aims to conduct a molecular dereplication study of Porcelia macro…
Brazil has great biological diversity and can enjoy many species with unknown pharmacological properties. Phytochemical studies with different species of the genus Nectandra have shown great structural diversity of bioactive metabolites, however, there is no information in the literature related to the chemical composition and/or biological potential of the species Nectandra barbellata. B…
Microorganisms participate in biological processes as long before man discover the possibilities for its systematic use. The production of compounds with pharmacological importance from these microscopic beings is well studied since the discovery of Penicillin. Currently, genomic analyzes have provided numerous new Natural Products from microorganisms. Therefore, this work aims to analyzi…
Plants are used for medicinal purposes since ancient times. Natural compounds extracted from plants have been highlighted as important sources of new therapeutic agents, used in the treatment of several ills, especially neglected diseases, such as leishmaniosis, Chagas disease among others. In this aspect, several studies are directed to evaluation of biological activities of natural comp…

Brazilian Atlantic forest is one of most important regions worldwide, considered as a biodiversity hotspot due to its high degree of biodiversity (plant, animals and microorganisms). Based in this aspect, the investigation of metabolites from different plants species from this biome could be a source of new prototypesto therapeutic treatment for several diseases, including neglected tropi…
