ABSTRACT
Introduction: the infection by Trypanosoma cruzi, known as Chagas' disease,
poses a major public health problem in Central and South America countries.
Objective: to evaluate the activity of crude ethyl acetate extracts from in vitro
plants of 6-8 and 10-12 months of age, stem barks and mature wild plant leaves
and tetrahydrofuran lignin grandisin isolated from Piper solmsianum against the
epimastigote and trypomastigote forms of T. cruzi in vitro.
Methods: in the evaluation of the effect of various crude ethyl acetate extracts and grandisin from P. solmsianum on the viability of epimastigote and trypomastigote
forms of T. cruzi, the MTT method (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-il)-2,5-
diphenyltetrazolium bromide) was used.
Results: in the epimastigote form, the best results in growth inhibition was
obtained with 50 μg/mL of stem extract, and in the trypomastigote form, with
25 and 50 μg/mL of grandisin and 6-8 months-old in vitro plants, respectively. The
inhibition values in all cases ranged from 86 to 96 %. 6-8 months old in vitro plants
and grandisin were found to be active against the epimastigote and trypomastigote
forms of T. cruzi with IC50 of 0.018 μg/mL and 0.360 μg/mL, respectively.
Conclusions: the trypanocidal activity of extracts from wild plants and in vitro
plants of P. solmsianum was proved.
