Abstract
Salvia hispanica L., commonly known as chía, and its seeds have been used since ancient times to prepare different beverages. Due to its nutritional content, it is considered a dietary ingredient and has been reported with many health benefits. Chia seed components are helpful in cardiovascular disease (CVD) by reducing blood pressure, platelet aggregation, cholesterol, and oxidation. Still, its vasodilator effects on the vascular system were not reported yet. The hexanic (HESh), dichloromethanic (DESh), and methanolic (MESh) extracts obtained from chía seeds were evaluated on an aortic ring ex-vivo experimental model. The vasorelaxant efficacy and mechanism of action were determined. Also, phytochemical data was obtained through 13C NMR-based dereplication. The MESh extract showed the highest efficacy (Emax = 87%), and its effect was partially endothelium-dependent. The mechanism of action was determined experimentally, and the vasorelaxant curves were modified in the presence of L-NAME, ODQ, and potassium channel blockers. MESh caused a relaxing effect on KCl 80 mM-induced contraction and was less potent than nifedipine. The CaCl2-induced contraction was significantly decreased compared with the control curve. Phytochemical analysis of MESh suggests the presence of mannitol, previously reported as a vasodilator on aortic rings. Our findings suggest NO-cGMP pathway participation as a vasodilator mechanism of action of S. hispanica seeds; this effect can be attributed, in part, to the mannitol presence. S. hispanica could be used in future research focused on antihypertensive therapies.

Abstract
Flavonoids are naturally occurring compounds widely distributed in the Citrus genus. These natural compounds have many health benefits, mainly for metabolic and cardiovascular diseases. In fact, some these compounds are components of drug products with approved indications for peripheral vascular insufficiency and hemorrhoids. However, information on pharmacological effects of these compounds remains disperse and there is scarce comprehensive analysis of whole data and evidence. These kinds of evidence analyses could be necessary in drug design and the development of novel and innovate drug products in diabetes and hypertension. We aimed to systematically search for evidence on the efficacy of citroflavonoids in diabetes and hypertension in in vivo models. We searched four literature databases based on a PICO strategy. After database curation, twenty-nine articles were retrieved to analyze experimental data. There was high heterogeneity in both outcomes and methodology. Naringenin and hesperetin derivates were the most studied citroflavonoids in both experimental models. More investigation is still needed to determine its potential for drug design and development.

Abstract
Serjania triquetra is a medicinal plant widely used in traditional medicine for the treatment of urinary tract diseases, renal affections, and its complications. The population can buy this plant in folk markets as a raw material mixed with several herbal remedies or as a health supplement. On the market, two commercial presentations were found for the vegetal material; one had a bulk appearance and the other was marketed wrapped in cellophane bags (HESt-2, HESt-3). Nevertheless, the plant has not been exhaustively investigated and quality control techniques have not been developed. This research aimed to realize a phytochemical study using an authentic, freshly collected sample as a reference for S. triquetra (HESt-1), using the compounds identified. A method for the determination of preliminary chromatographic fingerprinting was developed. Additionally, the vasorelaxant effect from three samples was evaluated with ex vivo rat models. Thus, three hydroalcoholic extracts (HESt-1, HESt-2, and HESt-3) were prepared by maceration. A total of nine compounds were fully identified from HESt-1 after the extract was subjected to open-column chromatography. Seven metabolites were detected by gas chromatography, while ursolic acid (UA) and allantoin were isolated and identified using UPLC-MS and NMR, respectively. Three extracts were analyzed for their chromatographic fingerprint by UPLC-MS. Biological activity was explored by ex vivo rat aorta ring model to evaluate vasorelaxant activity. All extracts showed a vasorelaxant effect in a concentration-dependent and endothelium-dependent manner. S. triquetra vascular activity may be attributed to UA and allantoin compounds previously described in the literature for this activity.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This work describes the vasorelaxant and antihypertensive effects and the mechanism of action on vascular smooth muscle cells of Nibethione, a synthetic thiazolidinedione derivative. Additionally, evidence of its cytotoxicity is assessed. METHODS Nibethione (NB) was synthesized, and its vasorelaxant effect and mechanism of action were assessed through ex vivo experiments. Molecular docking studies were used to predict the mode of interaction with L-type Ca2+ channel, and in vivo antihypertensive activity was assayed on spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). The cytotoxicity potential was evaluated in porcine aortic endothelial cells (PAECs) from primary explants. KEY FINDINGS Nibethione vasorelaxant effect was efficient on KCl (80 mm) and NE-contraction. This effect was deleteriously modified in the presence of potassium channel block drugs, while the maximal contraction induced with NE was significantly decreased by NB; the CaCl2 -induced contraction was abolished entirely. In vivo experiments showed that NB decreased diastolic blood pressure in 20.3 % after its administration on SHR. The molecular docking showed that NB blocks L-type Ca2+ channel, and in vitro tests showed that NB did not produce cytotoxic activity on PAECs (IC50 >1000 µm). CONCLUSIONS Nibethione showed in vivo antihypertensive and ex vivo vasorelaxant effects with implication of voltage-dependent L-type Ca2+ channel blocking, and this may contribute to the research of novel antihypertensive drugs.

Abstract
Salvia tiliifolia is used in folk medicine as a relaxant agent and for the treatment of diarrhea and neurodegenerative diseases. Tilifodiolide (TFD) is a diterpene obtained from this plant. The purpose of this work was to evaluate the antidiarrheal, vasorelaxant, and neuropharmacological actions of TFD. These effects were selected based on the folk medicinal use of S. tiliifolia. The antidiarrheal activity of 1-50 mg/kg p.o. TFD was assessed with the castor oil related tests. The vasorelaxant effect of TFD (0.9-298 μM) was performed with smooth muscle tissues from rats, and its mechanism of action was evaluated using different inhibitors. The sedative, anxiolytic, and antidepressant effects of 1-100 mg/kg TFD were assessed. The possible mechanisms of action of the anxiolytic and antidepressant effects of TFD were evaluated using inhibitors. TFD exhibited antidiarrheal (ED50 = 10.62 mg/kg) and vasorelaxant (EC50 = 48 ± 3.51 μM) effects. The coadministration of TFD with N(ω)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME) or 1H-[1,2,4]oxadiazolo[4,3-a]quinoxalin-1-one (ODQ), reverted the vasorelaxant action showed by TFD alone. TFD exerted anxiolytic actions (ED50 = 20 mg/kg) in the cylinder exploratory test, whereas TFD (50 mg/kg) showed antidepressant actions in the tail suspension test by 44%. The pretreatment with 2 mg/kg flumazenil partially reverted the anxiolytic actions of TFD, whereas the pretreatment with 1 mg/kg yohimbine abolished the antidepressant effects of TFD. In summary, TFD exerted antidiarrheal activity by decreasing the intestinal fluid accumulation and vasorelaxant effects mediated by nitric oxide and cyclic guanosine monophosphate. TFD showed anxiolytic and antidepressant effects by the partial involvement of gamma-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) receptors and the possible participation of α2-adrenoreceptors, respectively.

Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE The fight against chronic respiratory diseases needs the exploration of new active compounds with properties that contribute to diminish the symptoms or resolve the disease alongside current therapy. MATERIALS AND METHODS Eight extracts obtained from the bark and leaves of a Mayan medicinal plant used to treat asthma, Cordia dodecandra A. DC., were investigated for their relaxant effect on rat isolated tracheal rings pre-contracted with carbachol [1 µM]. The underlying functional mode of action of the most effective extract was assessed and the chromatographic fingerprints of more active extracts were analyzed. RESULTS The dichloromethane bark extract (DECd-b) was the most effective and potent (Emax= 87.57 ± 1.32 %; EC50 = 392.7 ± 5.18 µg/mL). DECd-b relaxant effect was maximized in presence of isoproterenol (β-adrenergic agonist, [10 µM]) and theophylline (phosphodiesterase unspecific inhibitor, [10 µM]). DECd-b also showed efficient relaxation of KCl [80 mM]-induced contraction and inhibition of CaCl2-induced contraction. Pre-incubation with propranolol (non-selective β-adrenergic antagonist, [10 µM]), SQ22536 (adenylyl cyclase inhibitor; [100 µM]), ODQ (guanylyl cyclase inhibitor; [10 µM]), l-NAME (nitric oxide synthase inhibitor; [10 µM]), indomethacin (a cyclooxygenase unspecific inhibitor; [10 µM]), glibenclamide (ATP-sensitive potassium channel blocker; [10 µM]) and 2-aminopyridine (voltage-gated potassium channel blocker [100 µM]) did not modify the DECd-b relaxant-effect curve. The chromatographic analysis of DECd-b suggests the cordiaquinones presence with double conjugated bounds such as menaquinone. CONCLUSIONS Results suggest that DECd-b induces relaxation mainly by cAMP increase and Ca2+ channel blockade. The chromatographic profiles and UV spectrum of DECd-b and HECd-l suggest the presence of molecules with structure of meroterpenoid naphthoquinones. This work report scientific evidence of C. dodecandra medicinal specie, which contributes to the pharmacological and phytochemical background of C. dodecandra providing an added value to the traditional use of this specie.

Abstract
Preclinical Research The diterpene ent-dihydrotumanoic acid (DTA) was among the compounds isolated from Gymnosperma glutinosum (Spreng) Less (Asteraceae). There are no reports regarding the pharmacological effects of DTA. Cytotoxicity against cancer cells (1-250 µM), and the antibacterial (50-1400 µM) activity of DTA were evaluated using the MTT assay, and the minimum inhibitory concentration test, respectively. The antidiarrheal (1-100 mg/kg p.o.) and anti-inflammatory (2 mg/ear) effects of DTA were evaluated using castor oil and 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate, respectively. The antinociceptive and sedative effects of DTA (1-100 mg/kg p.o.) were evaluated using two models of chemically-induced nociception, and the pentobarbital-induced sleeping time test, respectively. The antinociceptive mechanism of DTA was evaluated using the acetic acid writhing test with inhibitors related to pain processing pathways. The effects of DTA (10-100 mg/kg p.o.) on locomotor activity were evaluated using the rotarod test. DTA lacked cytotoxic activity (IC50 > 100 µM) on cancer cells, possessed moderate antibacterial effects against B. subtillis (MIC= 175 µM), moderate antidiarrheal and anti-inflammatory effects, and minimal vasorelaxant effects. In the formalin test, DTA showed antinociceptive effects in both phases. In the acetic acid test, DTA showed antinociceptive activity (ED50 = 50.2 ± 5.6 mg/kg) with potency similar to that of naproxen (NPX; ED50 =33.7 ± 4.5 mg/kg) an effect blocked by naloxone implicating an opioid mechanism. DTA also exerted antidiarrheal activity and showed no sedative effects or changes in locomotor activity in mice. Drug Dev Res 78 : 340-348, 2017. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Abstract
This text presents complementary data corresponding to pharmacological and toxicological characterization of N-(2,6-dichlorophenyl)-2-(4-methyl-1-piperidinyl)acetamide (LIA) compound. These data support our research article entitled "Pharmacological profile of N-(2,6-dichlorophenyl)-2-(4-methyl-1-piperidinyl)acetamide, a novel analog of lidocaine" Déciga-Campos M., Navarrete-Vázquez G., López-Muñoz F.J., Librowski T., Sánchez-Recillas A., Yañez-Pérez V., Ortiz-Andrade R. (2016) [1]. Toxicity was predicted through the ACD/ToxSuite software and evaluated in vivo using brine shrimp larvae (Artemia salina L.) and mice. Also, we used the micronucleus assay to determine genotoxicity. We used the platform admetSAR to predict absorption properties of LIA and lidocaine.

Abstract
The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C13H14O3, contains two independent mol-ecules, A and B, that are inter-connected through an offset π-π inter-action [inter-centroid separation = 3.6087 (4) Å]. The fused benzene and pyran-2-one rings in each mol-ecule are essentially coplanar, having dihedral angles of 1.22 (12) and 1.57 (12)° for mol-ecules A and B, respectively. Similarly, the coumarin ring system and the 7-prop-oxy substituent are close to being coplanar [C-C-O-C torsion angles = 2.9 (2) and 1.4 (2)° for mol-ecules A and B, respectively]. In the crystal, the mol-ecules are connected by C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming supra-molecular tapes along [100] that are linked into a three-dimensional network by C-H⋯π inter-actions, as well as by the aforementioned π-π inter-actions.

Abstract
Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disorder that causes contraction in the smooth muscle of the airway and blocking of airflow. Reversal the contractile process is a strategy for the search of new drugs that could be used for the treatment of asthma. This work reports the semisynthesis, ex vivo relaxing evaluation and SAR studies of a series of 18 coumarins. The results pointed that the ether derivatives 1-3, 7-9 and 13-15 showed the best activity (Emax = 100%), where compound 2 (42 μM) was the most potent, being 4-times more active than theophylline (positive control). The ether homologation (methyl, ethyl and propyl) in position 7 or positions 6 and 7 of coumarins lead to relaxing effect, meanwhile formation of esters generated less active compounds than ethers. The SAR analysis showed that it is necessary the presence of two small ether groups and the methyl group at position 4 (site 3) encourage biological activity through soft hydrophobic changes in the molecule, without drastically affecting the cLogP.

Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Artemisia ludoviciana spp. mexicana (Willd. Ex.) Spring D.D. Keck (Asteraceae), known as "estafiate" is employed for the treatment of diarrhea, dysentery, parasites, abdominal pain, vomiting, stomach ache, and also as antispasmodic agent. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the relaxant effect of hexanic (HEAl), dichloromethanic (DEAl) and methanolic (MEAl) extracts on isolated trachea, ileum and aorta rat rings, and to establish the tracheo-relaxant mode of action of DEAl. MATERIALS AND METHODS All extracts were investigated based on their capacity of to inhibit the rat ileum spontaneous contraction, to relax contraction induced by noradrenaline (0.1 μM) on endothelium-intact and endothelium-denuded thoracic aorta rat rings, and also to inhibit contraction provoked by carbachol (1 μM) on rat trachea. RESULTS Organic extracts had no spasmolytic action on ileum strips compared to positive control (papaverine, p<0.05). On the other hand, all extracts induced a significant concentration- and partial endothelium-dependent vasorelaxant activity. Extracts also showed significant relaxant effect on pre-contracted tracheal tissue in a concentration-dependent manner. In last two experiments, DEAl was the most potent and efficient extract; however, it was less potent than papaverine and theophylline, used as positive controls (p<0.05). In tracheal preparation, DEAl shifted to the right, in a parallel manner, the concentration-response curves induced by carbachol (p<0.05). Also, DEAl induced a significant relaxant effect on the contraction produced by potassium chloride (KCl, 80 mM). Pre-incubation with 1-H-[1,2,4]-oxadiazolo-[4,3a]-quinoxalin-1-one (ODQ, 10 μM), indomethacin (10 μM), N(ω)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME, 10 μM), glibenclamide (10 μM) and 2-aminopyridine (2-AP, 100 μM) did not modify the DEAl-relaxant curves. CONCLUSIONS Functional experiments suggest that the most active extract, DEAl, induced its relaxant effect by possible muscarinic receptors antagonism and calcium channel blockade in tracheal rings. On the other hand, significant vasorelaxant activity showed by DEAl is partially endothelium-dependent. Finally, spasmolytic activity induced by the extracts in the rat ileum was not significant, which suggests that the antidiarrheic effect of the plant is related to antimicrobial and antiparasitic properties previously described.
