Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of death worldwide. Conventional antithrombotic therapy has reported hemorrhagic accidents. Ethnobotanical and scientific reports point to Cnidoscolus aconitifolius as an antithrombotic adjuvant. Previously, C. aconitifolius leaves ethanolic extract displayed antiplatelet, anticoagulant, and fibrinolytic activities. This work aimed to identify compounds from C. aconitifolius with in vitro antithrombotic activity through a bioassay-guided study. Antiplatelet, anticoagulant, and fibrinolytic tests guided the fractionation. Ethanolic extract was subjected to a liquid-liquid partitioning, followed by vacuum liquid, and size exclusion chromatography to obtain the bioactive JP10B fraction. The compounds were identified through UHPLC-QTOF-MS, and their molecular docking, bioavailability, and toxicological parameters were determined computationally. Kaempferol-3-O-glucorhamnoside and 15(S)-HPETE were identified; both showed affinity for antithrombotic targets, low absorption, and safety for human consumption. Further in vitro and in vivo evaluations will better understand their antithrombotic mechanism. This bioassay-guided fractionation demonstrated that C. aconitifolius ethanolic extract has antithrombotic compounds.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Xanthones are metabolites with a variety of biological properties. The Clusiaceae family, which until recently included the genus Calophyllum, is recognised for its production of monohydroxylated and polyhydroxylated xanthones. Presently, C. brasiliense is the only Calophyllum spp. known to occur in the Yucatan peninsula. OBJECTIVE To use a combination of traditional phytochemical methods and carbon-13 nuclear magnetic resonance (13 C-NMR) dereplication analysis to identify xanthones in the stem bark of C. brasiliense. MATERIAL AND METHODS Initial fractionation and purification of the stem bark extract of C. brasiliense produced macluraxanthone (1). Additional xanthones, together with chromanones and terpenoids, were identified using 13 C-NMR dereplication analysis in different semipurified fractions obtained from the low and medium polarity fractions of the stem bark extract of C. brasiliense. RESULTS Initial identification of macluraxanthone (1) was confirmed by 13 C-NMR dereplication analysis; additionally, 13 C-NMR dereplication analysis allowed the identification of a number of monohydroxylated and polyhydroxylated xanthones, together with chromanones and terpenoids. CONCLUSION This study confirms C. brasiliense as a rich source of xanthones and the 13 C-NMR dereplication analysis as a suitable method to quickly identify the presence of different families of secondary metabolites in semipurified fractions.

Abstract
Background: Formation and accumulation of advanced glycation end-products (AGE) is recognized as a major pathogenic process in diabetic complications, atherosclerosis and cardiovascular diseases. In addition, reactive oxygen species and free radicals have also been reported to participate in AGE formation and in cell damage. Natural products with antioxidant and antiAGE activity have great therapeutic potential in the treatment of diabetes, hypertension and related complications. Objective: to test ethanolic extracts and aqueous-traditional preparations of plants used to treat diabetes, hypertension and obesity in Yucatecan traditional medicine for their anti-AGE and free radical scavenging activities. Materials and Methods: ethanolic extracts of leaves, stems and roots of nine medicinal plants, together with their traditional preparations, were prepared and tested for their anti-AGE and antioxidant activities using the inhibition of advanced glycation end products and DPPH radical scavenging assays, respectively. Results: the root extract of C. fistula (IC50= 0.1 mg/mL) and the leaf extract of P. auritum (IC50= 0.35 mg/mL) presented significant activity against vesperlysine and pentosidine-like AGE. Although none of the aqueous traditional preparations showed significant activity in the anti-AGE assay, both the traditional preparations and the ethanolic extracts of E. tinifolia, M. zapota, O. campechianum and P. auritum showed significant activity in the DPPH reduction assay. Conclusions: the results suggest that the metabolites responsible for the detected radical-scavenging activity are different to those involved in inhibiting AGE formation; however, the extracts with antioxidant activity may contain other metabolites which are able to prevent AGE formation through a different mechanism. SUMMARY Ethanolic extracts from nine plants used to treat diabetes, hypertension and obesity in Yucatecan traditional medicine were tested for their anti-AGE and free radical scavenging activities. Significant activity against vesperlysine and pentosidine-like AGE was detected in the root extract of Cassia fistula and the leaf extract of Piper auritum. Traditional preparations and the ethanolic extracts of Ehretia tinifolia, Manilkara zapota, Ocimum campechianum and Piper auritum showed significant activity in the DPPH reduction assay. Results suggest that the metabolites responsible for the detected radical-scavenging activity are different to those involved in inhibiting AGE formation.

Abstract
This work describes the use of Colubrina greggii as a model to investigate the use of chemometric analysis combined with data from a leishmanicidal bioassay, using Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Orthogonal Projections to Latent Structures (O-PLS), to detect biologically active natural products in crude extracts from plants having little or no phytochemical information. A first analysis of the HPLC-UV profiles of the extract and its semi-purified fractions using both Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Orthogonal Partial Least Squares (O-PLS) indicated that the components at tR 48.2, 48.7, 51.8min correlated with the variation in bioactivity. However, a further O-PLS analysis of the HPLC-UV profiles of fractions obtained through a final semi-preparative HPLC purification showed two components at tR 48.7 and 49.5min which correlated with the variation of the bioactivity in a high performance predictive model, with high determination coefficient, high correlation coefficient values (R(2) and Q(2)=0.99) and a low root mean square error (RMSE=0.018). This study demonstrates that the association of chemometric analysis with bioassay results can be an excellent strategy for the detection and isolation of bioactive metabolites from phytochemically unknown plant crude extracts.

Abstract
The bioassay-guided purification of the ethanol extracts of Acmella pilosa and Cnidoscolus souzae, two plants of the native flora of the Yucatan Peninsula used in traditional medicine to treat inflammation and pain, resulted in the identification of rosmarinic acid (1) and caffeic acid (2) as the bioactive metabolites from A. pilosa, and of 7-deoxynimbidiol (4) as the major bioactive metabolite from C. souzae. Metabolites 1, 2, and 4 proved to be responsible for the antioxidant activity originally detected in the corresponding organic crude extracts; 7-deoxynimbidiol (4) showed good analgesic and anti-inflammatory activities, inhibiting the pain induced by PGE2 and reducing the edema induced by carrageenan, respectively.

Abstract
The bioassay-guided phytochemical investigation of the leaf extract of Serjania yucatanensis, a woody climbing plant endemic to the Yucatan peninsula, led to the identification of a mixture of a triterpene [lup-20(29)-en-3-one] and an oxygenated sesquiterpene (β-caryophyllene oxide), as that responsible for the originally detected trypanocidal activity in the organic crude extract. Results showed that the mixture of lup-20(29)-en-3-one and β-caryophyllene oxide is active against trypomastigotes of Trypanosoma cruzi (IC(50) =80.3 μg/mL) and inhibits the egress of trypomastigotes from infected Vero cells (when tested at 100 μg/mL) without being cytotoxic.

Abstract
Plants have evolved photoprotective mechanisms to limit photodamage; one of these mechanisms involves the biosynthesis of antioxidant metabolites to neutralize reactive oxygen species generated when plants are exposed to excess light. However, it is known that exposure of plants to conditions of extreme water stress and high light intensity results in their enhanced susceptibility to over-excitation of photosystem II and to photooxidative stress. In this investigation we used the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl reduction assay to conduct a broad survey of the effect of water availability and light exposure conditions on the antioxidant activity of the leaf extracts of two bromeliad species showing crassulacean acid metabolism. One of these was an epiphyte, Tillandsia brachycaulos, and the other a terrestrial species, Bromelia karatas. Both species were found growing wild in the tropical dry deciduous forest of Dzibilchaltún National Park, México. The microenvironment of T. brachycaulos and B. karatas experiences significant diurnal and seasonal light variations as well as changes in temperature and water availability. The results obtained showed that, for both bromeliads, increases in antioxidant activity occurred during the dry season, as a consequence of water stress and higher light conditions. Additionally, in T. brachycaulos there was a clear correlation between high light intensity conditions and the content of anthocyanins which accumulated below the leaf epidermis. This result suggests that the role of these pigments is as photoprotective screens in the leaves. The red coloration below the leaf epidermis of B. karatas was not due to anthocyanins but to other unidentified pigments.

Abstract
Betulinic acid (1), isolated from the crude extract of the leaves of Pentalinon andrieuxii (Apocynaceae), together with betulinic acid acetate (2), betulonic acid (3), betulinic acid methyl ester (4), and betulin (5) were evaluated for their antiprotozoal activity. The results showed that modifying the C-3 position increases leishmanicidal activity while modification of the C-3 and C-28 positions decreases trypanocidal activity.

Abstract
The radical scavenging assay-guided fractionation of the leaf extract of Byrsonima bucidaefolia Standl. yielded two metabolites with antioxidant activity, identified as methyl gallate (1) and methyl m-trigallate (2) on the basis of their spectroscopic data. Both 1 and 2 were identified as artifacts of the extraction and/or the purification process, possibly resulting from transesterification of precursor gallotannins. Evaluation of the antioxidant activity of both the isolated metabolites 1 and 2 and three of their derivatives (3-5), showed that 1 and 2 have a stronger antioxidant activity than vitamin C when tested using the DPPH reduction assay.

Abstract
Two novel phytotoxins, 8-zinniol methyl ether (5) and 8-zinniol acetate (6), in addition to 6-(3',3'-dimethylallyloxy)-4-methoxy-5-methylphthalide (2), 5-(3',3'-dimethylallyloxy)-7-methoxy-6-methylphthalide (3), and the novel metabolites 8-zinniol 2-(phenyl)ethyl ether (4) and 7-zinniol acetate (7) have been identified as natural zinniol derivatives from the organic crude extract of Alternaria tagetica culture filtrates. Using zinniol as the starting material, phytotoxin 5 was synthesized, together with a number of synthetic intermediates (8-13). Both natural and synthetic zinniol derivatives were evaluated in the leaf-spot bioassay against marigold leaves (Tagetes erecta).

Abstract
Bioactivity of extracts from leaves, stems and roots of twelve plants commonly used in Yucatecan traditional medicine were evaluated in four bioassays. Crude extracts from ten plants showed significant activity in the inhibition of bleaching of beta-carotene assay, while thirteen extracts showed activity in the reduction of 2, 2- diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical (DPPH) assay. In the antimicrobial bioassay, the major activity was presented by the root extract of Jatropha gaumeri and in the beta-glucosidase inhibition activity assay the strongest activity was observed in the stem and root extracts of Solanum hirtum.
