Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIN VIVO ANTIPLASMODIAL ACTIVITY AND ACUTE TOXICITY OF STANDARDIZED EXTRACT OF EURYCOMA LONGIFOLIA JACK. ROOT TRADITIONALLY USED TO TREAT MALARIAEti Nurwening Sholikhah, Mahardika Agus Wijayanti, MustofaA series of studies has been conducted to prove the Eurycoma longifolia Jack. root as an antimalarial. However, the in vivo antiplasmodial activity of E. longifolia Jack. root standardized extract and its lethal dose 50% (LD50) values is unknown. In vivo antiplasmodial activity was conducted on Plasmodium berghei infected Swiss mice as malaria model with 4-day suppression methods. Sixty mice … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 27 Dec 2013 · 7,732 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Antimalaria Activity and Acute Toxicity of Xetospongia spSyamsudin Abdillah, Rahmatul Wahida Ahmad, Yatnita Parama Cita, Noriah Mohd NoorWe investigated the in vivo activity of extract of Xetospongia sp against Plasmodium berghei Strain ANKA and acute toxicity in mice. The ethanolic extracts of the Xetospongia sp (50-400 mg kg-1 day) were screened for blood schizonticidal against P. berghei strain ANKA in mice during early and established infections. Acute toxicity of extracts of Xetospongia sp at the dose 5000 … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 2 Sep 2013 · 7,796 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStimulatory Effects of Dihydroartemisinin on the Leucocyte Population of Wistar Albino RatsU. A. Utoh-Nedosa, P. A. Akah, C. O. Okoli et al.Problem statement: Five dosages of Dihydroartemisinin (DHA) which included 1 mg kg-1; a repeated dose of 1; 2; 60 and 80 mg kg-1 were administered orally to albino rats for 5 days. The results of the study showed that dihydroartemisinin treatment significantly elevated the total white cell count (p<0.01); the percentage neutrophil count (p<0.01) and the percentage lymphocyte count (p<0.05). … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 17 Nov 2011 · 7,350 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImmunomodulatory and In vivo Antiplasmodial Activities of Propolis ExtractsSyamsudin, Rita Marleta Dewi, KusmardiProblem statement: Malaria caused by various species of prozoan parasites, Plasmodium. The exact mechanism of humoral immunity in eliminating Plasmodium is not completely understood. However, an antimalarial antibody is strongly suspected to play important role in immunity. The purpose of this research was to evaluate the immunomodulator and antiplasmodial activities of Indonesian propolis extracts. Approach: Thirty male BALB/c mice weighing … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 7,801 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntrinsically Unstructured Proteins: Potential Targets for Drug DiscoveryPathan Salma, Chintan Chhatbar, Sriram SeshadriProblem statement: The function of a protein is dependent on its three-dimensional structure. However, numerous proteins lacking intrinsic globular 3D structure under physiological conditions had been recognized. These proteins are frequently involved in some of the most critical cellular control mechanisms and it appears that their rapid turnover, aided by their unstructured nature in the unbound state, provides a level … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,578 accessesView PDFCite
