ABSTRACTMalaria is an infectious disease caused by Plasmodium sp. which is developing resistance to several therapies. There is a need to find a new therapy by combining ACT, first line malaria therapy in Indonesia, with another substance, such as herbal. Propolis is a hive bee product which has high anti oxidant activity. Combination between ACT and propolis I assume to enhance effectiveness of malarial therapy and to avoid further resistance of ACT. 30 mice were injected by Plasmodium berghei and were given ACT therapy as positive control, propolis 75mg kgBW, propolis 150mg kgBW, ACT with propolis 75mg kgBW, and ACT with propolis 75mg kgBW. Parasites density was calculated from thin blood smear for 7 days therapy. The results shows that the declining parasites density of ACT with propolis 150mg kgBW are found more than the positive control. Single therapy of propolis does not give inhibition effect for parasites, though its 150mg kgBB dose is effective as ACT adjuvant malaria therapy in mice."

"Malaria merupakan masalah kesehatan di dunia. Tantangan yang muncul di mengatasi malaria adalah munculnya resistensi terhadap klorokuin, salah satu obat antimalaria. Perlawanan telah mendorong berbagai penelitian untuk menemukan senyawa antimalaria baru. Salah satu potensinya adalah propolis, produk lebah madu, yang mengandung luteolin 7-O glukosida dan kalkon. Luteolin 7-O glukosida menghambat tipe 2. biosintesis asam lemak parasit dan chalcone menghambat proses hemolisis. Tujuan dari penelitian ini mempelajari efektivitas kombinasi propolis dan klorokuin dibandingkan diobati dengan klorokuin, propolis saja, dan terapi kombinasi dalam parasitemia mencit (Mus musculus) yang terinfeksi Plasmodium berghei. Dosis propolis yang diuji adalah 30 mg/kgBB dan 60 mg/kgBB. Perbedaan tingkat parasitemia yang terkecil dan terbesar masing-masing berada pada kelompok perlakuan terapeutik klorokuin saja, terapi kombinasi dengan dosis 60 mg/kg, terapi kombinasi dengan dosis 60 mg/kgBB, terapi tunggal propolis dengan dosis 30 mg/kgBB, dan terapi tunggal propolis dosis 60 mg/kg berat badan. Terapi tunggal propolis 30 mg/kgBB berhasil dihambat pertumbuhan parasit yang signifikan Namun terapi tunggal propolis 60 mg/kgBB memiliki pengaruh yang tidak signifikan terhadap percepatan pertumbuhan parasit. Namun, terapi tunggal propolis masih belum sebanding dengan terapi tunggal klorokuin. Terapi kombinasi propolis tidak memberikan perubahan yang signifikan pada efek antimalaria klorokuin. Oleh karena itu, dapat disimpulkan bahwa propolis pada dosis 30 mg/kgBB dan 60 mg/kgBB tidak sesuai untuk digunakan pada terapi kombinasi dengan klorokuin.Malaria is a health problem in the world. Challenges that appear in to overcome malaria is the emergence of resistance to chloroquine, one of the antimalarial drugs. The resistance has prompted various studies to find new antimalarial compounds. One of the potential ispropolis, a honey bee product, which contains luteolin 7-O glucoside and chalcone. Luteolin 7-O glucoside inhibits type 2 . Parasite fatty acid biosynthesis and chalcone inhibit hemolysis. The aim of this study was to study the effectiveness of the combination of propolis and chloroquine compared to treatment with chloroquine, propolis alone, and combination therapy in parasitaemia of mice (Mus musculus) infected with Plasmodium berghei. The doses of propolis tested were 30 mg/kgBW and 60 mg/kgBW. The smallest and largest differences in parasitaemia levels were in the chloroquine only therapeutic treatment group, combination therapy at a dose of 60 mg/kg, combination therapy at a dose of 60 mg/kgBW, propolis single therapy at a dose of 30 mg/kgBW, and propolis single therapy. dose of 60 mg/kg body weight. Propolis single therapy 30 mg/kgBW was successfully inhibited by significant parasite growth. However, propolis 60 mg/kgBW single therapy had no significant effect on the acceleration of parasite growth. Although However, propolis single therapy is still not comparable to chloroquine single therapy. Propolis combination therapy did not give a significant change in the antimalarial effect of chloroquine. Therefore, it can be concluded that propolis at doses of 30 mg/kgBW and 60 mg/kgBW is not suitable for use in combination therapy with chloroquine."
