Description

Osvaine Junior Alvarenga Alves and colleagues published a 2023 laboratory study of a South American plant in the bignonia family. The team focused on verbascoside, a compound they found to be the main ingredient in extracts of the plant's leaves. They also built a reliable lab method to measure exactly how much of it an extract contains.

Safety testing in animals suggested the extract was well tolerated at high doses. Both the leaf extracts and the isolated compounds showed activity against the parasites that cause leishmaniasis, a neglected tropical disease. The measurement method gives future researchers a standard way to check the strength of preparations made from this plant.
