In the seedling stage, different environmental conditions influence the synthesis, composition, and accumulation of bioactive compounds in different ways, mainly under water stress. Thus, given the wide distribution, this study aimed to analyze the occurrence and distribution of phenolic compounds in L. ferrea seedling for three different states/climate typologies: Pará/Af, Amazonas/Am, and Maranhão/Aw. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and plantlet histochemistry were applied to determine the phenolic compounds distribution present in the extracts of leaflets and roots, respectively. Three different metabolic profiles were described, of which Pará/Af and Maranhão/Aw were similar, while Amazonas/Am showed quantitative differences in the composition. Among the main phenolic compounds were found gallic acid, ferulic acid, and caffeic acid, and presented different concentrations according to origin. The only phenolic compound found for all origins was gallic acid. Therefore, it was demonstrated that the chemical profile of phenolic compounds is conserved in L. ferrea, and significant variations were not observed, which ensures the use of this species regardless of origin.</p>","PeriodicalId":7776,"journal":{"name":"Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciencias","volume":"97 1","pages":"e20240635"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2025-03-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143708079","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Understanding this impact is crucial to prevent the effects of dangerous exposure, especially given the high levels of environmental pollutants in today's world. Most of the previous research about the adverse effects from contaminants has been conducted in rodents, with limited human epidemiological research. This article reviews the evidence about the impact of various contaminants (air pollutants, water contaminants, pesticides, herbicides, radiation, heavy metals, and plastics) on male reproductive health, particularly sperm quality and fertility. The literature suggests that exposure to contaminants during fetal development and childhood has irreversible effects, while those of adult exposure are often reversible.
