An ethyl acetate extract of Psiadia arguta leaves showed in vitro antiplasmodial activity against Plasmodium falciparum with IC values of 12.3 ± 2.4 μg/mL (3D7 strain) and 13.5 ± 3.4 μg/mL (W2 strain). Phytochemical investigation led to the isolation and characterization of 16 compounds including four new diterpenoids: labdan-8α-ol-15-yl-(formate) (1), labdan-8α-ol-15-yl-(2-methylbutanoate) (2), labdan-8α-ol-15-yl-(3-methylpentanoate) (3), and labdan-8α-ol-15-yl-(labdanolate) (4). The latter compounds were characterized by spectroscopic methods (1D and 2D NMR, HRMS, and IR). The in vitro antiplasmodial activities of all compounds were evaluated. The known compounds labdan-13( E)-en-8α-ol-15-yl acetate (5), labdan-8α-ol-15-yl acetate (6), 13- epi-sclareol (7), labdan-13( E)-ene-8α,15-diol (8), and (8 R,13 S)-labdane-8α,15-diol (9) exhibited antiplasmodial effects, with IC values of 29.1, 33.2, 35.0, 36.6, and 22.2 μM, respectively.

Psiadia arguta (Asteraceae) is endemic to the island of Mauritius in the Indian Ocean. The species is traditionally used to treat various ailments, such as its use as an expectorant or for the treatment of bronchitis and asthma. Preliminary biological screenings have displayed the antimalarial (Plasmodium falciparum) and anticancer (HeLa human cell line) potential of P.

The biofilm inhibition and eradication potential of essential oils (EOs) extracted from six tropical medicinal herbs and food plants [ (PA), (PT), (CGp), (CH), (CR), and (CZ)] were assessed. The mechanism of inhibition was studied via quenching of efflux pump. Cytotoxicity was evaluated using assay and cell lines [human cervix carcinoma (HeLa), human lung fibroblast (MRC-5), and murine melanoma (B16F10)].

Essential oils (EOs) extracted from six medicinal herbs and food plants [Cinnamomum zeylanicum (CZ), Psiadia arguta (PA), Psiadia terebinthina (PT), Citrus grandis (CGp), Citrus hystrix (CH), and Citrus reticulata (CR)] were studied for any inhibitory potential against key physiological enzymes involved in diabetes (α-glucosidase), skin aging (collagenase and elastase), and neurodegenerative disorders (acetylcholinesterase). Kinetic studies of the active EOs on the aforementioned enzymes were determined using Lineweaver-Burk plots. The intracellular and extracellular antimelanogenic potential of the EOs were evaluated on B16F10 mouse melanocytes.
