Gastroenterology Pharmacognosy. Pharmaceutical substances (Plant, animal, and inorganic) Muntingia calabura /Muntingiaceae,! is known as kerukup siam’ or 'pokok buah ceri’ locally. It has been used in Southeast Asia and tropical America as antipyretic, antiseptic, analgesic, antispasmodic and liver tonic. This study aims to determine the safety and the metabolic pathways involved in the hepatoprotective mechanism of M. calabura. Phytochemical analysis of the extract was carried out. The standardization of the extracts was done using LCMS Q-TOF. The standardized extract was subjected to acute and repeated doses of 28-day oral toxicity study. Three different in-vim hepatotoxic models which are CCU-induced, PCM-induced and alcohol-induced were developed and a dose dependent hepatoprotective effect of M calabura (100 mg/kg, 200 mg/kg and 400 mg/kg) was conducted. Body weight, food and water consumption were measured every day and rats were sacrificed to collect the serum samples at the end of the 10-days treatment for CCU and PCM induced hepatotoxic rats while samples were collected at the end of 22-days for alcohol-induced hepatotoxic rats. Histopathological study of the liver slice was carried out to confirm the hepatoprotective activity of the extract. Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry quadrapole time of flight (LC/MS-QTOF) combined with principal component analysis (PCA) were used to determine differentially expressed metabolites due to treatment with hepatoxicant and M. calabura extracts. Metabolomics Pathway Analysis (MetPA) was used for analysis and visualization of the pathways involved. This study shows that the body weight, food and water consumption were significantly decreased and histopathological study revealed liver damage in all In-vivo models of hepatotoxic rats. PCA score plots of the hepatotoxic rats clustered separately from the control, while groups given pre-treatment with the extract clustered closely with the control.

Muntingia calabura /Muntingiaceae,! is known as kerukup siam’ or 'pokok buah ceri’ locally.
