ABSTRACT

A number of plant-derived drugs have been prescribed for treating atherothrombotic disorders such as myocardial or cerebral infarction. Therefore, this study investigated the individual and combined antithrombotic effects of six Asian plants on individuals with various BMIs. Venous blood drawn from healthy volunteers was allowed to form clots and treated with six organic fractions of Ophiorrhiza harrisiana Heyne, Haldina cordifolia (Roxb.) Ridsdale, Eclipta alba (L.) Hassk, Syzygium operculatum L., Lantana camara L., and Acanthus ilicifolius Linn. using the clot-lysis method. The weight of the clot before and after treatment provided the percentage of clot lysis. Variations in clot lysis in different BMI groups were assessed. A. ilicifolius induced the most thrombolytic activity, whereas L. camara showed slightly lower thrombolytic activity. The maximum clot-lysis activity was primarily observed in different fractions of O. harrisana, H. cordifolia, E. alba, S. operculatum, and A. ilicifolius. However, chloroform fractions of all plants except O. harrisana and L. camara showed maximum activity in individual plants. O. harrisana, H. cordifolia, E. alba, S. operculatum, L. camara, and A. ilicifolius showed the highest significant (P < 0.5 and P < 0.001) clot-lysis activity viz., 46.60±0.79% (ethyl acetate), 55.40±1.023% (chloroform), 48.86±1.35% (CCl₄), 44.89±1.76% (chloroform), 29.17±1.12% (ethanol), and 56.318±1.64% (chloroform). Obtained results were verified by ligand-receptor interaction through in silico approach. In conclusion, H. cordifolia, E. alba, and A. ilicifolius demonstrated promising thrombolytic effects; therefore, it is recommended that they be studied further for their therapeutic potential.

ABSTRAK

Terdapat beberapa jenis ubat yang berasal daripada tumbuhan telah ditetapkan penggunaannya untuk merawat gangguan aterotrombotik seperti infarksi miokardium atau serebrum. Oleh itu, kajian ini mengkaji kesan aterotrombotik daripada enam jenis tumbuhan Asia individu dan gabungan terhadap individu dengan nilai BMIs yang bervariasi. Darah vena yang diambil daripada sukarelawan yang sihat dibenarkan untuk membentuk bekuan darah dan dirawat dengan enam pecahan organik iaitu Ophiorrhiza harrisiana Heyne, Haldina cordifolia (Roxb.) Ridsdale, Eclipta alba (L.) Hassk, Syzygium operculatum L., Lantana camara L. dan Acanthus ilicifolius Linn. dengan menggunakan kaedah lisis bekuan. Berat bekuan sebelum dan selepas rawatan memberi peratusan lisis bekuan. Variasi dalam lisis bekuan dalam kumpulan BMI yang berbeza telah dikaji. Aktiviti trombolitik paling tinggi telah teraruh daripada A. ilicifolius, manakala L. camara menunjukkan aktiviti trombolitik yang sedikit rendah. Aktiviti maksimum lisis bekuan diperhati terutama sekali dalam pecahan yang berbeza daripada O. harrisana, H. cordifolia, E. alba, S. operculatum dan A. ilicifolius. Namun, pecahan kloroform daripada semua tumbuhan selain daripada O. harrisana dan L. camara menunjukkan aktiviti maksimum dalam tumbuhan individu. O. harrisana, H. cordifolia, E. alba, S. operculatum, L. camara  dan A. ilicifolius menunjukkan nilai ketara tertinggi (P < 0.5 dan P < 0.001) aktiviti lisis bekuan viz., 46.60±0.79% (etil asetat), 55.40±1.023% (kloroform), 48.86±1.35% (CCl₄), 44.89±1.76% (kloroform), 29.17±1.12% (etanol)  dan 56.318±1.64% (kloroform). Keputusan yang diperoleh disahkan oleh interaksi ligan-reseptor melalui pendekatan in silico. Kesimpulannya, H. cordifolia, E. alba dan A. ilicifolius menunjukkan kesan trombolitik yang berpotensi: Oleh itu, adalah disarankan ia dikaji dengan lebih lanjut untuk potensi terapeutiknya.
