Cadinapyridine sesquiterpene alkaloids from Artemisia annua and in vitro cytotoxicity and antiplasmodial activities.

Artemisia annua L. (A. annua) is a medicinal herb that has been used for the last two millennia to treat various diseases.

Comparison of the composition and antiplasmodial activity of Artemisia annua teas using an untargeted metabolomic approach.

The use of teas made from locally cultivated Artemisia annua to fight malaria in remote areas where access to care is difficult is a matter of debate. This study aimed at document differences in the composition of A. annua teas cultivated in Benin to be sold as antimalarial teas, and in France, and their impact on antiplasmodial activity.
