Aqueous extract of Enantia chlorantha Oliv. demonstrates antimalarial activity and improves redox imbalance and biochemical alterations in mice
The antimalarial, antioxidative, antiperoxidative, and inflammatory-inhibiting properties of the plant in infected mice demonstrate its great value for therapeutic intervention, and substantiate its use in traditional medicine for malaria treatment. Hence, further investigation to identify the repertoire of the active antimalarial components is warranted.
