Abstract

In this study, in vivo hypoglycemic activity of mahogany (Swietenia macrophylla) bark extracts was evaluated against alloxan-induced diabetic rats. The hypoglycemic effect was compared to that of standard glibenclamide. Oral administration of hot water and methanol extracts at a dose of 250 mg/kg body weight for thirteen days of daily treatment to diabetic rats was found to possess significant dose dependant hypoglycemic effect in diabetic rats. It less active than that of glibenclamide at dose of 3.22 mg/kg. However, the hot water extract showed significant hypoglycemic activity compared to that standard drug.  Phytochemical analysis of hot water and methanol extracts has shown posistive  test for the presence of  alkaloids, flavonoids, tannins, saponins, dan terpenoids. Histopathological studies of pancreas revealed its significant effect of β-cell count. Therefore, the hot water extract could serve as good adjuvant to other oral hypoglycemic agents and seems to be promising for the development of phytomedicines for diabetes mellitus.

Abstract

The crude ethanol extracts of four Indonesian medicinal plants namely Curcuma xanthorrhiza Roxb.,Phyllanthus niruri Linn., Andrographis paniculata Ness., and Curcuma aeruginosa Roxb. wereexamined for their antioxidant (radical scavenging) activity using 2, 2-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl(DPPH) free radical and cytotoxicity using brine shrimp lethality test (BSLT). The total phenoliccontent was used the Folin-Ciocalteu method. IC50 values for DPPH radical scavenging activityranged from 14.5 to 178.5 μg/ml, with P. niruri having the lowest value and therefore the mostpotent, and C. aeruginosa having the highest value. LC50 values for BSLT ranged from 210.3 to593.2 μg/ml, with C. xanthorrhiza and A. paniculata having the lowest and highest values,respectively. The total phenolic content of the Indonesian plants ranged from 133.0 ±3.7 to863.3±54.7 mg tannic acid equivalent per 1 g extract, with C. aeruginosa and P. niruri having thelowest and highest values, respectively. A positive correlation between free radical scavengingactivity and the content of phenolic compounds was found in the four of Indonesian medicinal plants.
