Polymer-based nanostructures loaded with piperine as a platform to improve the larvicidal activity against Aedes aegypti. Acta Trop 2022; 230:106395. [PMID: 35278367 DOI: 10.1016/j.actatropica.2022.106395] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/10/2021] [Revised: 03/03/2022] [Accepted: 03/08/2022] [Indexed: 11/19/2022]
Abstract
Piperine is an alkaloid extracted from the seed of Piper spp., which has demonstrated a larvicidal effect against Ae. aegypti. The incorporation of piperine into nanostructured systems can increase the effectiveness of this natural product in the control of Ae. aegypti larvae. In this study, we evaluated the effectiveness of piperine loaded or not into two nanostructured systems (named NS-A and NS-B) prepared by the nanoprecipitation method. The Ae. aegypti larvae were exposed to different concentrations of piperine loaded or not (2 to 16 ppm) and the mortality was investigated after 24, 48, and 72 hours. The nanostructures prepared were spherical in shape with narrow size distribution and great encapsulation efficiency. The lethal concentration 50 (LC50) for non-loaded piperine were 13.015 ppm (24 hours), 8.098 ppm (48 hours), and 7.248 ppm (72 hours). The LC50 values found for NS-A were 35.378 ppm (24 hours), 12.091 ppm (48 hours), and 8.011 ppm (72 hours), whereas the values found for NS-B were 21.267 ppm (24 hours), 12.091 ppm (48 hours), and 8.011 ppm (72 hours). Collectively, these findings suggested that non-loaded piperine caused higher larval mortality in the first hours of exposure while the nanostructured systems promoted the slow release of piperine and thereby increased the larvicidal activity over time. Therefore, loading piperine into nanostructured systems might be an effective tool to improve the larval control of vector Ae. aegypti.

Change in susceptibility response of Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae) to organophosphate insecticide and Copaifera oleoresin. Acta Trop 2021; 221:106014. [PMID: 34146537 DOI: 10.1016/j.actatropica.2021.106014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/08/2021] [Revised: 06/07/2021] [Accepted: 06/08/2021] [Indexed: 11/20/2022]
Abstract
The growth of resistance in vector mosquitoes to insecticides, especially the organophosphate Temephos can facilitate the transmission of various disease agents worldwide. Consequently, it arises a challenge to public health agencies, which is the urgency use of other possibilities as botanical insecticides. Such insecticides have specific properties against insects due to the plant's ability to synthesize products derived from its secondary metabolism. The diversity and complexity of active compounds of botanical insecticides can help reduce the selection of resistant individuals and consequently not change susceptibility. To corroborate this hypothesis, the aim of this study was to compare two populations of Aedes aegypti treated with Temephos and Copaifera oleoresin. Thus, Ae. aegypti larvae were exposed from (F1) up to tenth generation (F10) with sublethal doses (±LC25) of these products (Copaifera oleoresin: 40 mg/L and Temephos: 0.0030 mg/L). The triplicates and control groups were monitored every 48 hours and the surviving larvae were separated until the emergence of the adults. Each new population were then subjected to a series of concentrations (LC50 and LC95) of Temephos and Copaifera oleoresin to calculate the Resistance Ratio (RR) of each exposed generation. The population of Ae. aegypti exposed to Temephos had an increase in RR from 05 (considered low) to 13 (considered high). Those population exposed to Copaifera oleoresin, had no increasing in RR and continued susceptible to the oil in all generations. There was a significant difference in mortality between the generations exposed to the two products. The results presented here show that the change in the susceptibility status of Ae. aegypti population to Temephos was already expected. So, we believe that this work will be of great contribution to research related to mosquito control with plant products, and resistance to chemical insecticides.

Abstract
Background: Tea is a natural beverage made from the tender leaves of the tea plant (Camellia sinensis Kuntze). Being of a perennial and monoculture nature in terms of its cultivation system, it provides a stable micro-climate for various insect pests, which cause substantial loss of crop. With the escalating cost of insect pest management and increasing concern about the adverse effects of the pesticide residues in manufactured tea, there is an urgent need to explore other avenues for pest management strategies. Aim: Integrated pest management (IPM) in tea invites an multidisciplinary approach owing to the high pest diversity in the perennial tea plantation system. In this review, we have highlighted current developments of nanotechnology for crop protection and the prospects of nanoparticles (NPs) in plant protection, emphasizing the control of different major pests of tea plantations. Methods: A literature search was performed using the ScienceDirect, Web of Science, Pubmed, and Google Scholar search engines with the following terms: nanotechnology, nanopesticides, tea, and insect pest. An article search concentrated on developments after 1988. Results: We have described the impact of various pests in tea production and innovative approaches on the use of various biosynthesized and syntheric nanopesticides against specific insect pest targets. Simultaneously, we have provided support for NP-based technology and their different categories that are currently employed for the management of pests in different agro-ecosystems. Besides the broad categories of active ingredients (AI) of synthetic insecticides, pheromones and natural resource-based molecules have pesticidal activity and can also be used with NPs as a carriers as alternatives to traditional pest control agents. Finally, the merits and demerits of incorporating NP-based nanopesticides are also illustrated. Conclusions: Nanopesticides for plant protection is an emerging research field, and it offers new methods to design active ingredients amid nanoscale dimensions. Nanopesticide-based formulations have a potential and bright future for the development of more effective and safer pesticide/biopesticides.

Abstract
Metabolic syndrome includes a series of metabolic abnormalities that leads to diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular diseases. Plant extracts, due to their unique advantages like anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and insulin sensitizing properties, are interesting therapeutic options to manage MetS; however, the poor solubility and low bioavailability of lipophilic bioactive components in the herbal extracts are two critical challenges. Nano-scale delivery systems are suitable to improve delivery of herbal extracts. This review, for the first time, focuses on nanoformulations of herbal extracts in MetS and related complications. Included studies showed that several forms of nano drug delivery systems such as nanoemulsions, solid lipid nanoparticles, nanobiocomposites, and green-synthesized silver, gold, and zinc oxide nanoparticles have been developed using herbal extracts. It was shown that the method of preparation and related parameters such as temperature and type of polymer are important factors affecting physicochemical stability and therapeutic activity of the final product. Many of these formulations could successfully decrease the lipid profile, inflammation, oxidative damage, and insulin resistance in in vitro and in vivo models of MetS-related complications. Further studies are still needed to confirm the safety and efficacy of these novel herbal formulations for clinical application.

Abstract
Copaiba oil comes from an Amazonian tree and has been used as an alternative medicine in Brazil. However, it has not been investigated yet in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. This study was designed to test whether copaiba oil or nanocapsules containing this oil could modulate monocrotaline (MCT)-induced pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Male Wistar rats (170 ± 20 g) received oil or nanocapsules containing this oil (400 mg/kg) by gavage daily for 1 week. At the end of this period, a single injection of MCT (60 mg/kg i.p.) was administered and measurements were performed after 3 weeks. The animals were divided into 6 groups: control, copaiba oil, nanocapsules with copaiba oil, MCT, oil + MCT, and nanocapsules + MCT. Afterward, echocardiographic assessments were performed, and rats were killed to collect hearts for morphometry and oxidative stress. MCT promoted a significant increase in pulmonary vascular resistance, right ventricle (RV) hypertrophy, and RV oxidative stress. Both oil and copaiba nanocapsules significantly reduced RV hypertrophy and oxidative stress. Pulmonary vascular resistance was reduced by copaiba oil in natura but not by nanocapsules. In conclusion, copaiba oil seems to offer protection against MCT-induced PAH. Our preliminary results suggest that copaiba oil may be an important adjuvant treatment for PAH.

Preparation of a Nanoemulsion with Carapa guianensis Aublet (Meliaceae) Oil by a Low-Energy/Solvent-Free Method and Evaluation of Its Preliminary Residual Larvicidal Activity. EVIDENCE-BASED COMPLEMENTARY AND ALTERNATIVE MEDICINE 2017; 2017:6756793.

Abstract
Andiroba (Carapa guianensis) seeds are the source of an oil with a wide range of biological activities and ethnopharmacological uses. However, few studies have devoted attention to innovative formulations, including nanoemulsions. The present study aimed to obtain a colloidal system with the andiroba oil using a low-energy and organic-solvent-free method. Moreover, the preliminary residual larvicidal activity of the nanoemulsion against Aedes aegypti was evaluated. Oleic and palmitic acids were the major fatty acids, in addition to the phytosterol β-sitosterol and limonoids (tetranortriterpenoids). The required hydrophile-lipophile was around 11.0 and the optimal nanoemulsion was obtained using polysorbate 85. The particle size distribution suggested the presence of small droplets (mean diameter around 150 nm) and low polydispersity index (around 0.150). The effect of temperature on particle size distribution revealed that no major droplet size increase occurred. The preliminary residual larvicidal assay suggested that the mortality increased as a function of time. The present study allowed achievement of a potential bioactive oil in water nanoemulsion that may be a promising controlled release system. Moreover, the ecofriendly approach involved in the preparation associated with the great bioactive potential of C. guianensis makes this nanoemulsion very promising for valorization of this Amazon raw material.

Abstract
Pterodon emarginatus Vogel is a Brazilian species that belongs to the family Fabaceae, popularly known as sucupira. Its oil has several biological activities, including potent larvicidal property against Aedes aegypti. This insect is the vector of dengue, a tropical disease that has been considered a critical health problem in developing countries, such as Brazil. Most of dengue control methods involve larvicidal agents suspended or diluted in water and making active lipophilic natural products available is therefore considered a technological challenge. In this context, nanoemulsions appear as viable alternatives to solve this major problem. The present study describes the development of a novel nanoemulsion with larvicidal activity against A. aegypti along with the required Hydrophile Lipophile Balance determination of this oil. It was suggested that the mechanism of action might involve reversible inhibition of acetylcholinesterase and our results also suggest that the P. emarginatus nanoemulsion is not toxic for mammals. Thus, it contributes significantly to alternative integrative practices of dengue control, as well as to develop sucupira based nanoproducts for application in aqueous media.

Abstract
Copaiba oleoresins are exuded from the trunks of trees of the Copaifera species (Leguminosae-Caesalpinoideae). This oleoresin is a solution of diterpenoids, especially, mono- and di-acids, solubilized by sesquiterpene hydrocarbons. The sesquiterpenes and diterpenes (labdane, clerodane and kaurane skeletons) are different for each Copaifera species and have been linked to several reported biological activities, ranging from anti-tumoral to embriotoxic effects. This review presents all the substances already described in this oleoresin, together with structures and activities of its main terpenoids.
