Immunomodulatory Effects of Ethanol Extract of Curcuma Mangga Rhizomes in Mice

Abstract: Objective: This study was conducted to evaluate the immunomodulatory effects of ethanol extract of Curcuma mangga by in vivo study.Methods: The ethanol extract of C. mangga was comprised to carbon clearance method for its immunomodulatory potential. The extract wasadministered orally at doses of 100, 200, and 400 mg/kg BW to mice for 7 days. On day 8, carbon ink was injected, and the blood was collected formeasurement of elimination of carbon. Total leukocyte count was also determined.Results: The evaluation o… Show more

“…consist of a monoterpen hydrocarbon class, consisting of 4 main components identified as mirsen (78.6%), β-osimen (5.1%), β-pinen (3.7%), and α-pinen( 2.9%) [3]. Pharmacological studies on C. mangga revealed that this plant has immumodulatory activity and did not cause short term toxicity [4][5]. Curcumin is able to prevent kidney damage in paracetamol-induced rats [6].…”

“…This plant has long been used in traditional medicine for the treatment of various diseases such as fever, stomach disorders and cancer [6]. Previous study has showed the immunomodulatory properties of C. mangga [7]. The anticancer, anti-inflammatory, antifungal and nitric oxide inhibitory activities of C. mangga have also been reported [8][9][10][11].…”

“…Our previous study has displayed the immunomodulatory activities of C. mangga on phagocytosis, as well as delayed type hypersensitivity reaction and titer antibody by in vivo study in bovine-red blood cells challenged-rats ( 11 12 ). C. mangga has also been evaluated for its toxic effect which revealed that its LD50 was more than 5000 mg/kg BW, indicating that it was nontoxic ( 13 ). The in vitro nitric oxide inhibitory activity of methanol extract of C. mangga has also been reported ( 14 ).…”
