Efeito in vitro de extratos e compostos naturais em Schistosoma mansoni.
Keywords in Portuguese

Abstract in Portuguese
Neste estudo avaliou-se o efeito in vitro de 4 compostos isolados de espécies vegetais, as amidas piplartina e piperina, a lignana grandisina e o alcaloide epiisopiloturina; 1 composto isolado da pele de anfíbio, o peptídeo antimicrobiano dermaseptina 01; e de 6 extratos etanólicos obtidos de vegetais, Piper tuberculatum, P. crassinervium, P. diospyrifolium, P. fuligineum, P. gaudichaudianum e Pothomorphe umbellata em adultos (machos e fêmeas com 49 dias) e esquistossômulos (recém-transformados, 1, 3, 5 e 7 dias) de Schistosoma mansoni linhagem BH. O estudo avaliou: 1) a viabilidade de vermes adultos; 2) a capacidade reprodutiva, avaliada pelo acasalamento e oviposição; 3) o efeito no tegumento em parasitas adultos; 4) a viabilidade e o efeito no tegumento em esquistossômulos; 5) a citotoxicidade de compostos e extratos em células de mamífero (célula Vero). Além disso, com microscopia confocal, neste estudo é proposto um novo modelo experimental que avalia, quantitativamente, o efeito de esquistossomicidas no tegumento dos esquistossomos.

Abstract in English
In this study, the in vitro effect of 4 compounds isolated from plant species, amides piplartine and piperine, the lignin grandisin and alkaloid epiisopiloturine; 1 compound isolated from amphibian skin, the antimicrobial peptide dermaseptin 01; and 6 ethanolic extracts of plants, Piper tuberculatum, P. crassinervium, P. diospyrifolium, P. fuligineum, P. gaudichaudianum and Pothomorphe umbellata was evaluated in adults worm pairs (49-day-old) and schistosomula (newly-transformed, 1-, 3-, 5-, and 7-day-old) of Schistosoma mansoni BH strain. The effect of compounds and extracts against schistosomes was examined regarding: 1) adult worms survival, 2) the reproductive fitness as assessed by mating and oviposition; 3) alterations on adult worms tegumental surface; 4) viability and morphological alterations on schistosomula; 5) the cytotoxicity of compounds and extracts in mammalian cells (Vero cells) In addition, this study shows a new experimental model to evaluate quantitatively the effect of schistosomicidal drugs on the tegument of the schistosomes.
