Patho-physiological evaluation of Duranta erecta for the treatment of urolithiasis

Abstract: Based on the results, we reported that D. erecta may treat calcium oxalate crystal deposition in the kidney by preventing hyperoxaluria-induced peroxidative damage to the renal tubular membrane surface (lipid peroxidation). It has anti-microbial potential so it may also inhibit the secondary bacterial infection in kidney. Based on the data, it can be concluded that this herb can be used as a potential anti-urolithiasis agent for kidney stone removal.

“…The methanol extract of D. erecta (L) leaves that were collected from CSIR-National Chemical Laboratory Colony, Pune, indicated the presence of secondary metabolites such as glycoside, saponins, sterols, flavonoids, phenols, tannins, alkaloids, carbohydrates, and proteins [25]. The aqueous extract of D. erecta fresh leaves was collected from the residential quarters within the University of Nigeria, Nsukka, indicated small quantities (+) of alkaloids, flavonoids, tannins, anthraquinone, and glycosides in the extract, while saponins were moderately present (++), steroids were conspicuously absent [26].…”

“…15 The methanol leaf extract was shown to have antifungal activity and antiurolithiatic effects. 16 , 17 The methanol ripe fruit extract did not show significant anthelmintic effects. 14 Oral evidence from some traditional healers in the Igbo speaking part of Eastern Nigeria suggests the effectiveness of infusion of ripe fruits in the management of DM.…”

“…Different treatment options are available to remove calculi, such as surgical removal, lithotripsy and laparoscopy. Despite the higher treatment costs, these techniques may produce a risk of causing acute renal injury, which decreases renal function and also recurrence of calculi observed in some cases with a possible recurrence rate of 10%, 33% and 50% at 1st, 5th and 10th year respectively (5). Costly diagnostic and treatment procedures for the therapeutic management of patients require better adequate alternative therapies.…”
