Anthocyanins from Eugenia brasiliensis edible fruits as potential therapeutics for COPD treatment

► Nine anthocyanins (1-9) were characterized from Eugenia brasiliensis edible fruit. ► Seven of them are reported for the first time in this plant. ► Delphinidin (8) and cyanidin (9), major constituents, were evaluated for their IL-8 inhibition in cells treated with CSE. ► Both anthocyanins were able to decrease IL-8 expression.
