Las raíces de Lepidium peruvianum Chacón (maca) son reconocidas por sus propiedades curativas dentro de la medicina tradicional, estas poseen metabolitos secundarios con actividad biológica como alcaloides, flavonoides y glicosinolatos que podrían estimular la recuperación del sistema inmune en animales con inmunosupresión experimental por Ciclofosfamida (CP) que induce supresión del sistema inmune humoral en ratones.
El presente trabajo tuvo como objetivo comprobar el efecto modulador de la maca sobre la respuesta inmune humoral en ratones suprimidos con ciclofosfamida.
Fueron obtenidos tres tipos de extractos: clorofórmico (ECl), metanólico (EMe) y acuoso (EAc) que se administraron por vía oral en dosis de 300mg/Kg del peso corporal. / The roots of Lepidium peruvianum Chacón (maca) they are recognized by theirs medicine properties inside the traditional medicine. They have secondary metabolites with biological activity as alkaloids, flavonoids and glucosinolates that can stimulates the recovery of the immune system in animals with experimental immunosuppretion by cyclophosphamide (CP) that induces suprresion of the immune system humoral in mice. The objective of the present study was verify the modulating effect of the “maca” on the immune response humoral in mice suppressed with cyclophosphamide.
Three types of extracts were obtained: chloroformic (ECl), methanol (EMe) and aqueous (EAc) that they were administered for oral route in dose of 300mg/Kg of the body weight.
