Resumo

This paper reports on the chemical composition, the in vitro antischistosomal effects, and the,cytotoxicity of the essential Oil from the leaves of Lavandula angustifolia Mill.; Lamiaceae, grown in the Southeastern Brazil. Bornel (22:4%), epi-alpha-muurolol (13.4%), alpha-,bisabolol (13.1%), precocene I (13.0%), and eucalyptol (7.9%) were the major essential oil constituents. Incubation With essential oil-at 200 mu g/ml killed all the adult S. mansoni worms after 24h (LC50 117.7. arid-103.9 mu g/ml at 24 and 120 h of incubation, respectively): At a concentration of 50 mu g/ the essential oil significantly decreased the motor activity and reduced the percentage of egg development after 110 h In addition, the essential oil,Separated all the coupled S. mansoni worm pairs into individual male and female-at 25 and 50 mu g/ml within 120 and 24 respectively. this oil was cytotoxic to GMO7492-A cells at only Concentrations higher than 200 mu g/ml (IC(50)243.7 mu g/ml). These data indicate that LA-EO exhibits moderate in vitro activity against adult S. rnansoni and exerts remarkable effects on eggs development. (C) 2013 Brazilian Society of Pharmacognosy.
