El nematodo Caenorhabditis elegans como modelo para evaluar el potencial antihelmíntico de extractos de plantas

Abstract: RESUMENLos nematodos parásitos afectan la productividad pecuaria, dando lugar a pérdidas económicas considerables. Sin embargo, son pocos los antihelmínticos disponibles en el mercado y la resistencia de los parásitos a los existentes va en incremento, por lo que su control es actualmente ineficiente. En este sentido, la búsqueda de nuevas estrategias para controlar la parasitosis es una necesidad actual. Una posibilidad para el control estriba en la investigación de metabolitos derivados de plantas, ya que el… Show more

“…However, the determination of the chemical composition, secondary metabolites and nutritional value of plants is among the most important results, due to their effect on the physiology, production and health status of animals; on the other hand, the anthelmintic activity of many plants used locally by different cultures has not been experimentally corroborated, and in most cases the active metabolites and their mechanisms of action are unknown. For this reason, there is scientific interest in the study of ethnobotanical practices for the development and promotion of effective drugs based on the active principles of locally available plants (Mayoral-Peña et al, 2017). Therefore, the aim of the present study was to evaluate, in vitro, the nematicidal activity of M. oleifera leaf extract against eggs and larvae of agriculturally important nematodes.…”
