Antimicrobial activity of the hydroalcoholic extract of Piper callosum Ruiz & Pav. leaves against bacterial and fungal strains in vitro
type: item
description: Antimicrobial resistance poses a growing threat to global public health and has spurred the search for therapeutic alternatives derived from natural products. Objective: To evaluate the antimicrobial activity of a hydroalcoholic extract of Piper callosum leaves against Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Candida albicans using in vitro techniques. Material and Methods: An in vitro experimental study was conducted. The extract was obtained by hydroalcoholic maceration (ethanol-water 70:30), and three concentrations (100, 200, and 400 mg/mL) were evaluated. Antimicrobial activity was determined by disk diffusion and well diffusion assays using ATCC strains. Inhibition zones were measured after incubation at 37 °C, and the data were analyzed using ANOVA and Tukey’s test (p < 0.05). Results: Piper callosum extract exhibited significant, dose-dependent antimicrobial activity. Staphylococcus aureus showed the highest sensitivity (up to 19.1 mm), followed by Candida albicans (17.3 mm). Inhibition against Escherichia coli was moderate, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa exhibited the lowest susceptibility, although with increasing inhibition zones as the concentration increased. No activity was observed in the negative controls. Conclusions: The hydroalcoholic extract of Piper callosum possesses a broad spectrum of antimicrobial activity, particularly against Gram-positive bacteria and yeasts. These results support its potential as a source of bioactive compounds and warrant further research aimed at the isolation, characterization, and toxicological evaluation of its metabolites, with a view to their eventual application in the development of natural antimicrobial agents.

It affects millions of people worldwide, many without diagnosis or adequate treatment. Its control represents a major public health challenge, especially in developing countries. Objective: To analyze the literature associated with the use of antihypertensives such as sacubitril/valsartan and their effectiveness, highlighting their importance in public health. Material and Methods: The PRISMA methodology was applied, initially identifying 326 articles, of which 298 were excluded from the analysis because they were review articles and not case reports. Next, 15 open-access full-text articles were selected, 9 of which were directly related to our research objective. In this article, we included only original clinical trials published between 2021 and 2024 in English and Spanish from the PubMed database. To find these publications, we used keywords such as sacubitril/valsartan, effectiveness, heart failure, cardiovascular. Results: Sacubitril/valsartan demonstrated increased therapeutic effectiveness. Similarly, some articles presented evidence of adverse reactions such as symptomatic hypotension, hyperkalemia, worsening renal function, dizziness, and angioedema. Conclusions: Based on the analyzed articles, it is concluded that sacubitril/valsartan therapy is effective, safe, and moderately tolerated. It can be considered a first-line treatment for various cardiovascular conditions, including heart failure, elevated natriuretic peptide levels, ventricular remodeling, blood pressure reduction, and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction, among others.

Antagonistic effect of native microorganisms from agricultural soils against phytopathogenic fungi
type: item
description: Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the antagonistic effect of native microorganisms from agricultural soils against phytopathogenic fungi associated with representative crops in the region. Material and Methods: Bacteria and fungi were isolated from soil samples collected from various agricultural crops using conventional microbiological methods. Subsequently, in vitro direct confrontation tests were performed to determine the antagonistic activity of the isolated microorganisms. Results: None of the evaluated bacteria showed antagonistic activity against the phytopathogenic fungi in tomato, pepper, carrot, orange, and ulluco crops. In contrast, some fungi, particularly H-pap-11 and H-pap-15, showed significant inhibition of the phytopathogens in tomato, pepper, and carrot, highlighting their potential as biocontrol agents. Conclusions: Although no antagonistic activity was detected in the bacteria, the positive results obtained with certain native fungi suggest their potential as an ecological alternative in the biological control of agricultural diseases, opening new perspectives for the sustainable management of phytopathogens.

Evaluation of the sedative activity of the hydroalcoholic extract from native Peruvian medicinal plants in albino mice
type: item
description: Objective: This study evaluated the sedative effect of the hydroalcoholic extracts from the leaves of Valeriana pinnatifida Ruiz & Pav (valerian) and Passiflora edulis Sims (passionflower) in albino mice (Holtzman). Material and Methods: 30 Holtzman albino mice were used, acquired from the National Agrarian University La Molina (UNALM). The mice were selected and assigned to groups using simple random probability sampling, forming 6 groups of 5 specimens each. Each group received a different treatment with the hydroalcoholic extracts: Valeriana pinnatifida at doses of 20 mg/kg and 50 mg/kg, and Passiflora edulis at doses of 50 mg/kg and 100 mg/kg. To induce anxiety, the elevated plus maze test was used. Subsequently, ANOVA and Tukey tests were applied to determine the concentration and group with the highest sedative activity. Results: The results indicate that the hydroalcoholic extract of Valeriana pinnatifida leaves shows significant sedative activity. However, the extract of Passiflora edulis at a dose of 50 mg/kg exhibited very limited sedative activity, suggesting that its effect is less pronounced compared to valerian. In contrast, the 100 mg/kg dose of Passiflora edulis did show a notable sedative effect. Conclusions: The findings suggest that treatments based on hydroalcoholic extracts of Valeriana pinnatifida could be considered an effective therapeutic alternative for managing anxiety. On the other hand, the use of Passiflora edulis at a concentration of 50 mg/kg is not recommended as an effective sedative; however, the 100 mg/kg concentration does exhibit sedative effects. These results pave the way for future research on dose optimization and potential combinations of extracts to enhance sedative effectiveness.
