Abstract:
Background: Malaria poses a substantial threat to healthcare systems across the globe. The escalating resistance of malaria parasites to the absence of affordable and accessible antimalarial medications has exacerbated the challenges associated with malaria treatment. This research aims to evaluate the antimalarial and antioxidant properties of Stichopus hermanni in combination with artemisinin, employing murine malaria models.Method: This study employed the ۴-day suppression test procedure and conducted an experimental investigation with a post-test-only control group design. The study involved ۳۵ male BALB/c mice, aged ۷-۱۰ weeks, each infected with Plasmodium berghei ANKA/PbA. The sample was divided into five groups: C۱ (negative control), C۲ (positive control), T۱ (administered ۱۵ mg/Kg BW/day of Stichopus hermanni ethanol extract and ۰.۰۴ mg/g BW/day of artemisinin), T۲ (administered ۱۷ mg/Kg BW/day of Stichopus hermanni ethanol extract and ۰.۰۴ mg/g BW/day of artemisinin), and T۳ (administered ۲۰ mg/Kg BW/day of Stichopus hermanni ethanol extract and ۰.۰۴ mg/g BW/day of artemisinin). The parameters measured included % parasitemia level, % growth inhibition, and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels.Results: The T۳ group exhibited the lowest parasitemia level and the highest degree of growth inhibition compared to the other groups (p-value < ۰.۰۵). However, statistically, it did not differ significantly from C۲ and T۱. Meanwhile, the T۳ group demonstrated the lowest MDA levels and the most significant antioxidant capacity compared to the other groups (p-value < ۰.۰۵).Conclusion: Based on both descriptive and statistical analyses, the combination of Stichopus hermanni ethanol extract and artemisinin exhibits antimalarial and antioxidant activities.
