pubmed:abstractText |
Extracts of leaves of Alchornea cordifolia were studied for their antiplasmodial activities. Chloroformic and ether extracts were found to be inactive while the ethanolic extract exhibited mild in vitro activity against Plasmodium falciparum. Fractionation of this extract led us to isolate ellagic acid as the active constituent of the extract with IC(50) in the range of 0.2-0.5 microM. Cytotoxicity of ethanolic fraction and ellagic acid was also estimated on human fibroblasts cells (IC(50) on Hela cells = 7.3 microM at 24 h for ellagic acid).
