Resumo: | Introduction: over the years, plant species have become a therapeutic alternative for a large part of the population, even with limited scientific research that ensures their effectiveness and safety. Among these, there is the Crescentia cujete, an arboreal species, with great distribution in the Northeast of Brazil. Known as the local population as a coité or gourd tree, it is used for different therapeutic purposes, such as analgesic, anti-tumor, spasmolytic and some gynecological disorders. Objective: to evaluate the possible cytotoxicity and to carry out the phytochemical characterization of the hydroalcoholic extract of Crescentia cujete. Methodology: the extract was obtained through homogenization with hydroalcoholic solution. The evaluation of cytotoxicity was based on the methodologies of erythrocyte osmotic fragility and lethality against Artemia salina L. Results: The presence of promising phytochemicals such as tannins, saponins and coumarins were detected. The cytotoxic assays showed CL50 1186.77μg / mL, considered low cytotoxic potential compared to Artemia salina L. regarding hemolytic activity, the extract obtained a percentage of 60.67%. Conclusion: therefore, it is encouraged to carry out new research in vivo and in vitro that seeks to characterize its toxic potential, as well as further studies for the quantification of phytochemicals for possible application in the development and discovery of drugs. |

Entre estos, se encuentra la Crescentia cujete, una especie arbórea con amplia distribución en el Nordeste de Brasil. Conocida como población local como coité o jícara, se utiliza para diferentes fines terapéuticos, como analgésicos, antitumorales, espasmolíticos y algunos trastornos ginecológicos. Objetivo: evaluar la posible citotoxicidad y realizar la caracterización fitoquímica del extracto hidroalcohólico de Crescentia cujete. Metodología: el extracto se obtuvo mediante homogeneización con una solución hidroalcohólica. La evaluación de la citotoxicidad se basó en las metodologías de fragilidad osmótica y letalidad eritrocitaria frente a Artemia salina L. Resultados: se detectó la presencia de fitoquímicos prometedores como taninos, saponinas y cumarinas. Los ensayos citotóxicos arrojaron CL50 1186.77μg / mL, considerado bajo potencial citotóxico contra Artemia salina L. en cuanto al porcentaje hemolítico, el extracto obtuvo un porcentaje de 60.67%. Conclusión: por tanto, fomenta la realización de nuevas investigaciones in vivo e in vitro que busquen caracterizar su potencial tóxico, así como estudios adicionales para cuantificar compuestos fitoquímicos para su posible aplicación en el desarrollo y descubrimiento de fármacos.Introdução: com passar dos anos as espécies vegetais passaram a ser alternativas terapêuticas para grande parte da população, mesmo com restritas pesquisas científicas que assegurem sua eficácia e segurança. Dentre essas, encontra-se a Crescentia cujete, uma espécie arbórea, com grande distribuição no Nordeste do Brasil. Conhecida população local como coité ou árvore de cabaça, é utilizada para diferentes finalidades terapêuticas, como analgésico, antitumoral, espasmolítica e alguns distúrbios ginecológicos. Objetivo: avaliar a possível citotoxicidade e realizar a caracterização fitoquímica do extrato hidroalcoólico da Crescentia cujete. Metodologia: o extrato foi obtido através de homogeneização com solução hidroalcoólica. A avaliação da citotoxicidade se baseou nas metodologias de fragilidade osmótica eritrocitária e letalidade frente à Artemia salina L.

Os ensaios citotóxicos demonstraram CL50 1186,77μg/mL, considerado baixo potencial citotóxico frente à Artemia salina L. quanto ao percentual hemolítico, o extrato obteve percentual de 60,67%. Conclusão: portanto, fomenta-se a realização de novas pesquisas in vivo e in vitro que busque caracterizar seu potencial tóxico, como também mais estudos para quantificação dos compostos fitoquímicos para possível aplicação no desenvolvimento e descoberta de fármacos.
