Abstract

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate Sterculia diversifolia stem bark and leaves for phytotoxic, genotoxic and enzymes inhibition potential. METHODS: Phytotoxic activity of both stem bark and leaves were screened using Lemna minor. The genotoxic activity of Sterculia diversifolia stem bark and leaves extracts were tested using comet assay protocol while enzyme inhibition activity of crude extract and various fractions of both stem bark and leaves were evaluated using acetyl cholinesterase, lipoxygenase, β-glu-curonidase, urease, xanthine oxidase and carbonic anhydrase. RESULTS: Phytotoxic activity showed significant results in dose dependant manner in both stem bark (ethyl acetate and n-butanol) and leaves (ethyl acetate, n-butanol and n-hexane) fractions. In genotoxic activity, dichloromethane fraction showed significant activity followed by ethyl acetate fraction. Acetyl cholinesterease inhibitory activity showed significant results in both stem bark and leaves fractions, while significant lipoxygenase inhibition was shown by ethyl acetate, dichloromethane, crude extract and n-hexane fractions of both stem bark and leaves. β-glucuronidase, urease and carbonic anhydrase inhibitory activity showed highly significant results in ethyl acetate fraction of both stem bark and leaves, while xanthine oxidase inhibition was shown by dichloromethane fraction of stem bark and leaves extracts. CONCLUSIONS: This study emphasizes the important phytotoxic, genotoxic and enzyme inhibition effects of Sterculia diversifolia stem bark and leaves. Hence, it is clear that Sterculia diversifolia stem bark and leaves possess phytotoxic, genotoxic and enzyme inhibitory agents.
