Malaria is still a serious cases all over the world especially in tropical country with a predict number 300-500 millions people infected per year. The resistence cases of these anti-malaria substance make a new effort to find the new strategy against malaria. This study aim to summarize the potential Piper genus as the source of potential antimalarial compound and recent research of callus induction in piper plant to obtain metabolites.The study of Piper genus represent the 11 Piper species were chemically studied and assayed against the plasmodium. The potential antimalarial compound isolates from several Piper genus were 20,60-Dihydroxy-40-methoxydihydro-chalcone,3-Farnesyl-p-hydroxybenzoic acid, Piperine, Chabamide, Benzoic acid derivatives, Guineensine, pellitorine, brachystamide B, sarmentine, and sermentosine, 5,8-Hydroxy-7-methoxyflavone, Prenylated hydroxybenzoic acid, 4-Nerolidylcatechol, Piperitone, Champor, and Viridiflorol (EO). An effort to propagate necessary antiplasmodial resources especially by callus induction has been conducted for 7 Piper species such as Piper betle, P. colubrinumm, P. crocatum, P. longum, P. nigrum, P. permucronatum and P. solmsianum to obtain higher content of secondary metabolites with a different plant growth hormone (PGR) supplementation while there are most of Piper genus have not been well studied. It conclude that callus culture could be the promising method to obtain antimalarial secondary metabolites as antimalarial.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
