description | <i>Petiveria alliacea</i> L. is a plant used in traditional medicine harboring pharmacological properties with anti-inflammatory, antinociceptive, hypoglycemiant and anesthetic activities. This study assessed the potential cytotoxic, genotoxic and mutagenic effects of ethanolic extract of <i>P. alliacea</i> on <i>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</i> strains. <i>S. cerevisiae</i> FF18733 (wild type) and CD138 (<i>ogg1</i>) strains were exposed to fractioned ethanolic extracts of <i>P. alliacea</i> in different concentrations. Three experimental assays were performed: cellular inactivation, mutagenesis (canavanine resistance system) and loss of mitochondrial function (petites colonies). The chemical analyses revealed a rich extract with phenolic compounds such as protocatechuic acid, cinnamic and catechin epicatechin. A decreased cell viability in wild-type and <i>ogg1</i> strains was demonstrated. All fractions of the extract exerted a mutagenic effect on the <i>ogg1</i> strain. Only ethyl acetate and n-butanol fractions increased the rate of petites colonies in the <i>ogg1</i> strain, but not in the wild-type strain. The results indicate that fractions of mid-polarity of the ethanolic extract, at the studied concentrations, can induce mutagenicity mediated by oxidative lesions in the mitochondrial and genomic genomes of the ogg1-deficient <i>S. cerevisiae</i> strain. These findings indicate that the lesions caused by the fractions of <i>P. alliacea</i> ethanolic extract can be mediated by reactive oxygen species and can reach multiple molecular targets to exert their toxicity. |
