The antimalarial and toxicological properties of four tetrahydroquinoline alkaloids from Galipea officinalis trunk bark were studied. Crude extracts and pure alkaloids were tested for in vitro antimalarial activity on Plasmodium falciparum. The IC50 were evaluated after 24 and 72 h contact between compounds and the parasite culture, and ranged from 1.8 to 40 mug/ml for the chloroquine-sensitive strain (CQS) and from 0.09 to 38 mug/ml for the chloroquine-resistant strains (CQR). Galipinine yielded the best antimalarial effect (IC50: 0.09-0.9 mug/ml on CQR strain) and this compound interacted particularly between the 32(nd) and the 40(th) hour of the P. falciparum erythrocytic cycle. The cytotoxicity of the extracts and pure tetrahydroquinoline alkaloids was assessed on the HeLa cell line and showed IC50 values ranging from 5.8 to above 50 mug/ml.
