Therapeutic Potential of Combretum mossambicense Extracts Against P. Falciparum Parasite
Author(s): Viness Milumbe Chikambwe, Patrick Mubambe, Kakoma K. Maseka and Lameck Banda*
With the increase in the resistance of P. Falciparum (the deadliest malaria-causing Plasmodium) to antimalarial alkaloidbased drugs, there has been intense research on new drugs that can combat malaria. Plants provide an unlimited source of bioactive compounds that can be used to treat various diseases. In addition, plant host endophytes, such as bacteria and fungi, are regarded as ideal sources of bioactive constituents. The Combretum mossambicense plant is a medicinal plant traditionally used as an effective herbal remedy for malaria infection. However, very little research has been conducted to investigate the phytochemical composition of this plant. In this study, the phytochemistry of the extracts of this plant was investigated and referenced to the chemistry of the commercial drugs used to treat malaria. The results showed that Combretum mossambic.. View more»
