Aristolochia paucinervis (A.
paucinervis) (Aristolochiaceae) is a plant frequently used in Moroccan alternative medicine.
The aim of the current study is to investigate the phytochemical composition of rhizomes decoction of A.
paucinervis (RDA) and to evaluate its acute and subacute toxicity following the OECD guidelines.
Materials and Methods.
The qualitative phytochemical analysis of A.
paucinervis was performed using standard qualitative phytochemical procedures.
The acute toxicity of rhizomes decoction of the studied plant was evaluated in mice at single doses of 1, 2, and 4 g/kg of body weight for 14 days.
In subacute toxicity study, the decoction was orally administered to mice at three different doses (0.5, 1, and 1.5 g/kg/day) for 28 days.
Histopathological and biochemical parameters were investigated.
Results.
The preliminary phytochemical screening showed the presence of flavonoids, saponins, alkaloids, and polyphenols and the absence of anthraquinones, sterols, and terpenes.
There was no mortality and no significant changes occurred in animals treated with 1 and 2 g/kg in the acute toxicity model.
The signs of toxicity and morbidity were remarkable with the highest tested dose (4g/kg).
LD50 (dose required to kill 50% of the test population) was determined as 4 g/kg.
Repeated oral administration of 1 and 1.5 g/kg/day of RDA for 28 days induced significant disturbance of serum parameters (AST, ALT, LDH, urea, creatinine).
Kidney and liver extracted from mice fed with 1 and 1.5 g/kg/day showed significant histopathological injuries as tubular necrosis, inflammatory infiltrate, tubular degeneration, necrosis, and hepatic cholestasis.
Meanwhile, neither histopathological nor biochemical alterations were observed in mice treated with 0.5 g/kg/day of body weight in comparison to the control group.
Conclusion.
RDA showed toxicity in mice at a dose of 1 g/kg/day under subacute toxicity conditions.
RDA is safe at a single dose inferior to 4 g/kg of body weight.
The plant extract prepared by decoction showed more poisonous effect than the extract prepared by maceration at room temperature.
