Development of a pharmacodynamic screening model with Crithidia fasciculata.

Abstract:

:The genus Crithidia is a member of the family Trypanosomatidae and is related to the genera Leishmania and Trypanosoma with which it shares a variety of biochemical mechanisms, such as polyamine synthesis and methionin salvage. In consequence, a screening system for antiparasitic candidate material has been developed with Crithidia fasciculata, a parasite naturally occurring in insects and amphibians, but devoid of pathogenicity for humans. Initially a variety of culture media were evaluated of which TPS was best suited for the maintenance of stock cultures, and E-medium - a newly developed formula - for sensitivity testing. Optimal growth of C. fasciculata was observed under microaerophilic conditions. A system for sensitivity testing was developed and applied to the investigation of extracts from higher tropical plants of the genera Stemona and Aglaia for anticrithidial activity. Extracts with significant anti-crithidial activity were scheduled for chromatographic fractionation and the subsequent isolation, purification and structural identification of individual compounds for further sensitivity testing. Encouraging results were obtained with extracts from Aglaia odorata leaves, A. elaeagnoidea stem bark and A. edulis leaves, with EC(90) values of 1213 ng/ml, 1606 ng/ml, and 1462 ng/ml, respectively.
