Cryptolepine is the main substance in the medicinal plant Cryptolepis sanguinolenta or Nibima.
This substance has been found to be effective against several bacteria and viruses.
Malaria, hepatitis B and recently, covid-19 have been treated effectively with this plant.
The study, led by Dr. Patrick Narkwa of the Department of Clinical Microbiology, KNUST aimed to investigate the effects of cryptolepine on cell interactions in human embryonic kidney.
Disordered interactions among cells have been found to cause diseases such as cancer.
The results published in the Journal of Science and Technology showed that cryptolepine had the ability to orderly regulate interactions of cells.
“The results from our studies support the pharmaco-biological effects of cryptolepine in different cells,” the report stated.
