مستخلص: Leishmaniasis is a set of infectious diseases with high rates of morbidity and mortality, it affects millions of people around the world. Treatment, mainly with pentavalent antimonials, presents significant toxicity and many cases of resistance. In previous works we have demonstrated the effective and selective antileishmanial activity of Eugenia uniflora L. essential oil, being constituted (47.3%) by the sesquiterpene curzerene. Considering the high rate of parasite inhibition demonstrated for E. uniflora essential oil, and the significant presence of curzerene in the oil, this study aimed to evaluate its antileishmania activity and possible mechanisms of action. Curzerene was effective in inhibiting the growth of promastigotes (IC 50 3.09 ± 0.14 µM) and axenic amastigotes (EC 50 2.56 ± 0.12 µM), with low cytotoxicity to RAW 264.7 macrophages (CC 50 83.87 ± 4.63 µM). It was observed that curzerene has direct effects on the parasite, inducing cell death by apoptosis with secondary necrotic effects (producing pores in the plasma membrane). Curzerene proved to be even more effective against intra-macrophage amastigote forms, with an EC 50 of 0.46 ± 0.02 µM. The selectivity index demonstrated by curzerene on these parasite forms was 182.32, being respectively 44.15 and 8.47 times more selective than meglumine antimoniate and amphotericin B. The antiamastigote activity of curzerene was associated with immunomodulatory activity, as it increased TNF-α, IL-12, and NO levels, and lysosomal activity, and decreased IL-10 and IL-6 cytokine levels detected in macrophages infected and treated. In conclusion, our results demonstrate that curzerene is an effective and selective antileishmanial agent, a candidate for in vivo investigation in models of antileishmanial activity.
