Activity of soft coral Lobophytum pauciflorum extract against Entamoeba histolytica in vitro and in vivo. S. Ghoshal1, V. Lakshmi2 (1Division of Microbiology and 2Division of Chemistry, Central Drug Research Institute, Lucknow-226001, India) Methanol extracts of the marine coral Lobophytum pauciflorum showed in vitro amoebicidal activity against trophozoites of Entamoeba histolytica and effected 85% cures of caecal amoebiasis in rats. The activity was localized in the n-butanol fraction, from which three pure compounds were isolated. (Biologiya Morya, Vladivostok, 2004, vol. 30, no. 6, pp. 483–485). Key words: amoebicidal activity, Entamoeba histolytica, caecal amoebiasis, Lobophytum pauciflorum. ehf jZaZ ih e H[t_^bg_gguc f_lZghevguc wdkljZdl dhgp_gljbjh\Zebijbihgb`_gghf^Z\e_gbb^h\yadhcfZkku dhlhjmx \ukmrb\Zeb \ \Zdmmf_ \ l_q_gb_ q ^ey m^Ze_gby ke_^h\ jZkl\hjbl_ey Ijb]hlh\e_gguc lZdbf h[jZahf f_lZghevguc wdkljZdl ] hp_gb\Zeb gZ ijhlb\hZf_[gmx Zdlb\ghklv AZl_f dhjZeeu \ufZqb\Zeb \ jZkl\hj_ f_lZghe±oehjhnhjfZ jZa ih e h[t_^bg_gguc wdkljZdl dhgp_gljbjh\Zeb ijb ihgb`_gghf ^Z\e_gbb ^h \yadhc fZkku dhlhjmx\ukmrb\Zeb\\Zdmmf_]Ihemq_ggu_wdkljZdlu njZdpbhgbjh\Zeb iml_f ihke_^h\Zl_evgh]h jZkl\hj_gby \ ]_dkZg_ oehjhnhjf_ b n[mlZghe_ Ljb qbkluo kh_^bg_gby \u^_e_gguo ba Zdlb\ghc njZdpbb ojhfZlh]jZnb_c bkke_^h\ZebgZijhlb\hZf_[gmxZdlb\ghklv <^Zgghfbkke_^h\Zgbbbkihevah\Zebkl_jbevghjZklmsb_dmevlmjuE. histolytica1,+kh^_j`Z\rb_ky\kj_^_ 7<,6'LDPRQGHWDObk_ilbq_kdmxdmevlmjm93 ihemq_ggmx ba bgnbpbjh\Zggh]h n_dZevgh]h fZl_jbZeZ ijb hkljhfkemqZ_Zf_[ghc^ba_gl_jbbbkh^_j`Z\rmxky\kj_^_ Jh[bgkhgZ5RELQVRQ Ljhnhahblu Zf_[u 1,+ ba dmevlmju \hajZklhf 24q ih^kqblu\Zeb gZ ]_fhpblhf_lj_ ^h\h^beb ^h dhgp_gljZpbbljhnhahblh\\febbkihevah\Zeb^eybkke_^h\Zgbc in vitro @b\uo ljhnhahblh\ 93 ba dmevlmju \hajZklhfqijhfu\Zebf_lh^hfgbadhkdhjhklgh]hp_gljbnm]bjh\Zgby k\_`_c kj_^hc Jh[bgkhgZ HkZ^hd ihf_sZeb \ k\_`mx kj_^m ^ey h[_ki_q_gby `bag_kihkh[ghklb ljhnhahblh\ ih^kqblZgguo gZ ]_fhpblhf_lj_ ^h\h^beb ^h dhgp_gljZpbb hdheh 5 ljhnhahblh\ \ ± fe b bkihevah\Zeb ^eybghdmeypbb\ke_imxdbrdmdjuk >_ckl\b_ bkke_^m_fuo kh_^bg_gbc in vitro hp_gb\Zeb ih f_lh^m >Zk 'DV JZ[hqbc jZkl\hj l_klbjm_fh]h Z]_glZ]hlh\bebiml_f_]hjZkl\hj_gby\g_[hevrhfdhebq_- IhjZ`_gb_ dbr_qgbdZ q_eh\_dZ Zf_[hc Entamoeba histolytica \uau\Z_l kgb`_gb_ ljm^hkihkh[ghklb mom^rZ_l dZq_kl\h`bagbbmjh\_gv^_eh\hcZdlb\ghklbex^_c\kljZgZokl_ieufdebfZlhf<ukhdZyqZklhlZ\klj_qZ_fhklbwlh]h aZ[he_\Zgby \ fbj_ j_]bkljbjm_lky gZ ijhly`_gbb ^ebl_evgh]h i_jbh^Z \j_f_gb %HOWUDQ 6WDQOH\ >Zggh_ aZ[he_\Zgb_ij_^klZ\ey_l[hevrmxijh[e_fm^eygZpbhgZevguof_^bpbgkdbobijhnbeZdlbq_kdboijh]jZff >ey[hjv[uk wlbf aZ[he_\Zgb_f bkihevamxl jy^ l_jZi_\lbq_kdbo kj_^kl\ h[eZ^Zxsbo ihl_gpbZevghc Zdlb\ghklvx ijhlb\ ljhnhahblh\ E. histolytica \ mkeh\byo in vitro.
