Abstract

Introduction: Brucein A has been known to have antiplasmodial activity. Some new compounds were synthesized to increase their antiplasmodial activity, i.e 3-benzoylbruceinA, 3-dimethyl sulphate bruceine A, 3-choro benzoyl brucein A, and 3-chloro acetyl bruceine A.However, their antiplasmodial activity have not studied yet.Objectives: To know the in vitro antiplasmodial activity of 3-benzoyl brucein A, 3-dimethyl sulphate bruceine A, 3-choro benzoyl brucein A, and 3-chloro acetyl bruceine A.Methods: Antiplasmodial activity was conducted by incubating FCR-3 strain of P. falciparum with 3- benzoyl brucein A, 3-dimethyl sulphate bruceine A, 3-choro benzoyl brucein A, and 3-chloro acetyl bruceine A in various concentrations for 72 hours. Parasitemia after incubation period of each compound was calculated by making a thin smear stained with 5% Giemsa.Results: Semisynthetic compounds of bruceine A have antiplasmodial activity in vitro with IC50 value were 2.648 ± 1.30 ng/mL for 3-benzoyl bruceine A, 1.098 ± 0.510 ng/mL for 3-dimethyl sulphate bruceine A, 50.246 ± 0.207 ng/mL for 3-chloro benzoyl bruceine A and 67.951 ± 11.517 ng/mL for 3- chloro acetyl brucein A. The IC50 value of Bruceine A as the lead compound was 3.87 ± 2.530 ng/mLConclusion: The 3-dimethyl sulphate bruceine A showed the highest antiplasmodial activity among 4 semisynthetic compounds of Bruceine A.Keywords:bruceineA, semisynthetic compound, Plasmodiumfalciparum, invitroantiplasmodial activity.

Abstract

ABSTRACTIntroduction: Malaria infection could activate T cell helper 2 CD4+ which release cytokines IL-4, IL-5, IL-10 was a kind of immunosuppressant cytokines and prevented a cerebral tissue damage from the expression intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) by TNF-α, ended with a cerebral malaria. The red fruit was proved as antioxidant but its effect to reduce TNF-α and expression of ICAM-1 in cerebral tissue endothelial cell remained unknown.Objectives: to know the effect of red fruit ethanol extract toward the change of TNF-α secretion number and ICAM-1 in Swiss male mice’s cerebral endothelial cell infected with P.berghei.Methods: Sixty Swiss male mice were divided in to 6 groups, group I was not given the red fruit (BM) ethanol extract and not infected P.berghei, Group II was given BM 260mg/kg BB but not infected P.berghei, group III, IV, V were given BM  130, 260, and 520 mg/kg respectively and infected with P.berghei. Red fruit extract or carrier substance was given for 4 weeks, P.berghei was given in the early of third week. TNF-α level check was done in third and ninth day after the injection, with TNF-α ELISA kit mouse. ICAM-1 cerebral endotel cell expression check was done in third and nine day with immunohistochemistry (IHC) coloring.Results: TNF-α level in third day after infected to the groups given red fruit extract (group III, IV, and V) showed no significant difference (p=0,839) compared to group which was not given red fruit but infected (group VI). TNF-α level in ninth day after infected to groups given red fruit ( group III,IV,V) lower (p<0,05) compared to groups which was not given red fruit but infected. ICAM-1 expression in third and ninth day after treatment to group given red fruit extract was lower (p<0,05) compared to groups given red fruit extract but infected. Conclusion: Red fruit ethanol extract ( P conoideus Lam) could decrease TNF-α level and ICAM-I expression in Swiss mice’ endothelial cerebral cells after infected by P.berghei.Key word: Pandanus conoideus Lam, TNF-α, ICAM-1 expression, Plasmodium berghei, Swiss mice

Abstract

ABSTRACTIntroduction: The immunity against malaria infection was very complex, involving humoral immunity and cellular immunity.  One of the methods to improve body immune response was using antioxidant. Red fruit (Pandanus conoideus Lam) containing carotenoid and tocopherol that have antioxidants effects increase phagocytosis activity of macrophage and proliferation activity of lymphocyte as immune response againts parasite infection.Objectives: This study was intended to know the effect of red fruit (P. conoideus Lam) ethanol extract on IFN-γ and nitric oxide (NO) levels in Plasmodium berghei infected Swiss mice malaria model.Methods: This quasi experimental study used post test only control group design. Sixty eight-week aged male Swiss mice were devided into 6 groups. Group I was not given red fruit ethanol extracts neither infected by P.berghei, group II was given 260mg/kg/day of red fruit ethanol extracts, and it was not infected by P.berghei, groups III, IV and V were given red fruit ethanol extracts at 130, 260 and 520mg/kg/day respectively and infected by P.berghei. Group VI was not given the extract, however it was infected by P.berghei as control group. The red fruit ethanol extracts or the carrier was given for 28 days and the mice were infected by P.berghei in the beginning of week 3. On the day 3 and 9 after infection, 2 mL blood was taken from 3 mice of each group for serum isolation.Results: There was not any significant difference (p>0.05) mean of IFN-γ levels in all groups neither on day 3 nor day 9 after infection. The nitric oxide levels mean of mice group which have received red fruit extracts at 130 and 260mg/kg/day on the day 9 and  in mice group which have received red fruit extracts 260mg/kg/day on day 3 were lower than they were in control group without any extract (group VI). However, the nitric oxide levels mean of mice group which have received 520mg/kg/day did not show any significant difference (p>0.05) compared with control group.Conclusion: The red fruit (P. conoideus Lam) ethanol extract did not show any significant effect on the IFN-γ levels, however at doses of 130 and 260mg/kg/day it decreased the nitric oxide level of P. berghei infected Swiss mice malaria model significantly. Keywords: Pandanus conoideus Lam, Interferon gamma (INF-γ), Nitric oxide (NO),  Plasmodium berghei, and Malaria ModelKeywordsPandanus conoideus Lam, Interferon gamma (INF-γ), Nitric oxide (NO), Plasmodium berghei, and Malaria Model
