    Abstract The ethanolic extract from leaves of Rauia resinosa, Rutaceae, provided a new flavone, 5-hydroxy-5',6,7-trimethoxy-3',4'-methylenedioxyflavone (1), in addition to four known compounds: 3',4',5,5',7-pentamethoxyflavone (2), 5,7,8-trimethoxy-3'4'-methylenedioxyflavone (3), 3',4',5,7,8-pentamethoxyflavone (4) and β-sitosterol (5). The structures of all compounds were established on the basis of spectroscopic methods, mainly 1D and 2D NMR, UPLC-DAD-MS and UPLC-ESI-MS/MS, involving comparison with literature data. Cytotoxicity of leaves and stems extracts, their fractions and compounds (2), (3), (4) and (5) were evaluated against T24 (bladder carcinoma), TOV-21-G (ovarian adenocarcinoma) and HepG2 (liver carcinoma) cell lines.

    Abstract Millingtonia hortensis L.f. and Oroxylum indicum (L.) Kurz (Bignoniaceae) are native species from the Asian continent. They are popularly used in traditional medicine and their extracts are rich in flavonoids. In this work, ethanolic extracts of stems and leaves of these species were evaluated against the Chikungunya, Zika and Mayaro virus. The extracts were subjected to analysis by ultra-efficient liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry. Additionally, M. hortensis leaves extract was fractionated, leading to the isolation of hispidulin. Anti-arboviral activity against the three viruses was detected for M. hortensis leaves extract with EC₅₀ ranging from 37.8 to 134.1 µg/mL and for O. indicum stems extract with EC₅₀ ranging from 18.6 to 55.9 µg/mL. Hispidulin inhibited viral cytopathic effect of MAYV (EC₅₀ value 32.2 µM) and CHIKV (EC₅₀ value 78.8 µM). In LC-DAD-ESI-MS/MS analysis we characterized 25 flavonoids confirming once again the presence of these substances in extracts of these species.

    Abstract Neglected for years, Zika virus (ZIKV) has become one of the most relevant arboviruses in current public health. The recent Zika fever epidemic in the Americas generated a worldwide alert due to the association with diseases such as Guillain-Barré syndrome and congenital syndromes. Among the pathogenesis of ZIKV, recent studies suggest that oxidative stress plays an important role during infection and that compounds capable of modulating oxidative stress are promising as therapeutics. Furthermore, so far there are no specific and efficient antiviral drug or vaccine available against ZIKV. Thus, fullerol was evaluated in the context of infection by ZIKV, since it is a carbon nanomaterial known for its potent antioxidant action. In this study, fullerol did not alter cell viability at the concentrations tested, proving to be inert, beyond to presenting high antioxidant power at low concentrations. ZIKV infection of human glioblastoma increased the production of reactive oxygen species by 60% and modulated the Nrf-2 pathway activity negatively. After treatment with fullerol, both conditions were restored to baseline levels. Additionally, fullerol was able to reduce viral production by up to 90%. Therefore, our results suggest that fullerol as a promising candidate in the control of ZIKV infections, presenting both antioxidant and antiviral action.

    Abstract Arthropods transmit arboviruses via mosquito and tick bites to humans and other animals. The genus flavivirus, which causes diseases, sequelae, and thousands of deaths, mainly in developing and underdeveloped countries, is among the arboviruses of interest to public health. Given the importance of early and accurate diagnosis, this review analyzes the methods of direct detection of flaviviruses, such as reverse transcription loop-mediated isothermal amplification, microfluidics, localized surface plasmon resonance, and surface-enhanced Raman scattering, and presents the advantages, disadvantages, and detection limits identified in studies reported in the literature for each methodology. Among the different methods available, it is essential to balance four fundamental indicators to determine the ideal test: good sensitivity, high specificity, low false positive rate, and rapid results. Among the methods analyzed, reverse transcription loop-mediated isothermal amplification stands out, owing to result availability within a few minutes, with good sensitivity and specificity; in addition, it is the best-characterized methodology.

    Abstract Background: COVID-19 caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is a global health threat and remains a challenge for modern medicine. Rapid and accurate diagnosis of COVID-19 is vital for proper disease and outbreak management. Our review aimed to analyze scientific articles published in the literature addressing the rapid tests available for COVID-19 diagnosis at the first year of the pandemic.
    Methods: A systematic review was performed from October 22 to 27, 2020, searching data published in PubMed and Google Scholar databases, using subject headings or keywords related to point of care and rapid test diagnostic for SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19.
    Results: The first survey identified 403 articles, but only 23 met the defined criteria for the systematic analysis. The sensitivity and specificity parameters were assessed in 19 studies, and the data suggested that there was lower sensitivity in the period 1 to 7 days after the emergence of symptoms (∼38%) higher sensitivity at 8 to 14 days (∼90%), and the highest at 15 to 39 days (∼98%). Accuracy was reported in six studies, reporting values above 50%. Only three studies reported a possible cross-reaction.
    Conclusions: Our findings indicate that the rapid tests used in the first year of the pandemic were tested with a small number of samples and not adequately validated. And the studies that described them were conducted with little scientific rigor.
