“…S. polyphylla, leaves and stem chemical profile showed diverse classes of compounds belonging to lipids, ester, terpenoids, alkaloids and phenolic derivatives. These findings are aligned with previous research on Acacia polyphylla (= Senegalia polyphylla) and other members of Acacia/Senegalia (Hussain, 2019;Kumari et al, 2022;Janani & Ahamed, 2020).…”

I extend my sincerest appreciation to my esteemed supervisor, Profa Dra Déborah Yara Alves Cursino dos Santos (Chief of the Department), for opportunity and confidence for pursuing this journey. Many thanks for your unwavering support, teaching, insightful guidance and profound wisdom have been the foundation of this goal. Your mentorship has been an invaluable source of inspiration, shaping not only my academic pursuits but also my character. I am profoundly grateful to Professor Leonardo for sample collection. Similarly, I also think to Professor Dra Gladys F. A. M. de Pinna from Plant Anatomy Laboratory -IB/USP. Your willingness to share your knowledge and insights has been a guiding light in my pursuit of understanding. My heartfelt thanks also extend to the professors of the Botany Department, especially Laboratory of Phytochemistry. I am deeply grateful to my Heros, Muhammad Qasim (Pai) and Mai, brothers (Muhsin, Adil and little Asad), Hina Bibi (sister) and uncle's sincere prayers, support and boundless love have been my pillars of strength throughout this journey. My gratitude knows no bounds.I am also thankful to the technicians of Phytochemistry Laboratory, Mourisa and Aline, for their help and basis assistance and to Tássia technician of the Plant Anatomy Laboratory, for her valuable support and dedication in anatomical analyses.To my colleagues in room 144, starting with Mr. Eli, for his help and guidelines.Additionally, I would also like to extend special thanks to my senior fellows, Priscila, Alice, Tamara, Lucas (Senior and Junior), Miguel and Ruth (from Colombia).

“…The presence of phytoconstituents in plants, including alkaloids, have been reported by other studies [17][18][19][20]. Nature is a major resource of medicinal plants which are used for treating man [21][22][23][24][25][26]. The presence of alkaloid in the extract may contribute to its antimalarial activity.…”

Many modern medicines are derived from the chemicals available in plants. The utilization of plants against diseases by traditional medical practitioners is common in many parts of the world and several researches have been carried out to determine the scientific basis for the use of such plants. Alstonia boonei is one of the many medicinal plants found in Nigeria. The plant parts have been traditionally used to treat various ailments including malaria. This study was carried out to evaluate the antimalarial activity, phytochemical composition and toxicity of ethanolic stem bark extract of Alstonia boonei. The extract showed substantial dose dependent antimalarial activity as indicated by the recorded suppressive (45.67%, 58.53% and 74.68% for 100, 200 and 400 mgkg-1 body weights) prophylactic (33.57%, 45.64% and 61.23% for 100, 200 and 400 mgkg-1 body weights) and curative effects (62.35%, 68.57% and 79.63% for 100, 200 and 400 mgkg-1 body weights) on Plasmodium berghei infected white albino mice. The results of the antimalarial tests were significantly different compared to the negative control at P < 0.05. The phytochemical evaluation showed that the plant contained important chemical compounds including tannins, flavonoids, steroids, phenols, alkaloids, saponins, glycosides and terpenoids. The acute toxicity test showed that the extract is safe as observed on the tested mice. It was concluded that the extract contains important active antimalarial compounds that are safe and should be further investigated for antimalarial drug development.

Erythrina is a significant source of phytoconstituents. The aim of this review is to solicitude of classification, synthesis, and phytochemicals with biological activities of Erythrina. In our previous review on this genus (Hussain et. al., 2016a) fifteen species (Erythrina addisoniae, E. caribeae, E. indica, E. lattisima, E. melanacantha, E. mildbraedii, E. poeppigiama, E. stricta, E. subumbrans, E. veriagata, E. vespertilio, E. velutina, E. zeberi, E. zeyheri and E. americana) have been studied and 155 molecules with chemical structures were reported. A further comprehensive review was done upon continuation on the same genus and thirteen species (E. abyssinica, E. arborescens, E. berteroana, E. burttii, E. caffra, E. coralloids, E. crista-galli, E. fusca, E. herbaceae, E. lysistemon, E. mulungu, E. speciosa and E. tahitensis) of Erythrina have been studied and 127 compounds are reported as phytoconstituents with their chemical structure in this review. Erythrina crista-galli and E. lysistemon consist of highest number of chemical constituents. Bangladesh Pharmaceutical Journal 23(1): 65-77, 2020
