Among 42 extracts, prepared from 14 medicinal plants used in Vietnamese traditional medicine to treat malaria, 24 were found to have antiplasmodial activity by inhibiting the growth of the chloroquine-resistant Plasmodium falciparum strain FCR-3 with EC(50) values less than 10 microg/ml. Each medicinal plant possessed at least one active extract. The methanol extract of Coscinium fenestratum had the strongest antiplasmodial activity with EC(50) value of 0.5 microg/ml. Activity-guided fractionation led to identification of berberine as the major active constituent.
在从越南传统医学中用于治疗疟疾的14种药用植物制备的42种提取物中,发现24种具有抗疟原虫活性,通过抑制耐氯喹恶性疟原虫菌株FCR-3的生长,其半数有效浓度(EC50)值小于10微克/毫升。每种药用植物至少有一种活性提取物。毛叶柯蛇孢的甲醇提取物具有最强的抗疟原虫活性,EC50值为0.5微克/毫升。活性导向分离鉴定出小檗碱为主要活性成分。
