Abstract:
Cnidoscolus aconitifolius has been long used by ethnic groups in Indonesia for vegetables and traditional medicine. This study aims to explain the benefits of C. aconitifolius for food and its bioactivity. The method for writing is library research on scientific articles published online at Google Scholar by using the keywords: uses of C. aconitifolius and bioactivity of C. aconitifolius. All available articles were synthesized to provide comprehensive information on C. aconitifolius for food and its bioactivity. C. aconitifolius has two to three times more nutrients than spinach, spinach, Chinese cabbage, and lettuce. Cnidoscolus aconitifolius bioactivity includes antimicrobial, antidiabetic, hepatoprotective, antioxidant, antihypercholetrol, analgesic, antianemia, and kidney protection. Cnidoscolus aconitifolius leaves contain macronutrients such as carbohydrates, proteins, fats, vitamins and minerals so that they have the potential to be developed for cheap and easily available food. On the other hand, C. aconitifolius also contains anti-nutrients such as phytate and oxalate but with proper processing the antinutrients will be degraded.

Abstract:
AbstrakInformasi mengenai suku Euphorbiaceae di Pulau Jawa telah direkam dalam buku Flora of Java Volume 1 oleh C.A. Backer and R.C. Bakhuizen van den Brink Jr. Meskipun demikian, informasi terkini mengenai Euphorbiaceae di Jawa belum tersedia sejak buku tersebut terbit. Beberapa jenis tambahan telah ditemukan dari Jawa dan penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melaporkan informasi tambahan mengenai Euphorbiaceae yang ada di Jawa. penelitian telah dilakukan di Banten, Jawa Barat, Jawa Tengah, Jawa Timur, dan Yogyakarta pada bulan Maret hingga September 2019. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan adanya suatu marga tambahan di Jawa, yaitu Cnidoscolus Pohl. Marga tersebut hanya terdiri dari satu jenis saja di Jawa, yaitu C. aconitifolius (Mill.) I.M. Johnst. Secara taksonomi, jenis ini dibagi menjadi 2 anak jenis, yakni C. aconitifolius subsp. aconitifolius and C. aconitifolius subsp. polyanthus (Pax & K.Hoffm.) Breckon. Berdasarkan bentuk bunga betinanya, spesimen dari Jawa telah diidentifikasi sebagai C. aconitifolius subsp. aconitifolius. Tumbuhan ini berasal dari Meksiko dan Mesoamerika dan telah umum dibudidayakan sebagai tanaman sayur di Jawa. Di kawasan Malesia, C. aconitifolius telah dibudidayakan sebelumnya di Brunei, Singapura, dan Filipina. Oleh karena itu, keberadaannya di Jawa ditetapkan sebagai sebuah rekaman distribusi baru untuk kawasan Malesia.Abstract The information on Euphorbiaceae in Java island has been recorded in the Flora of Java Volume 1 by C.A. Backer and R.C. Bakhuizen van den Brink Jr. However, the latest information on Euphorbiaceae of Java has not been provided since the book was published. Several additional species have been found from Java and this study aims to report additional information on Euphorbiaceae of Java. The study was carried out in Banten, West Java, Central Java, East Java, and Yogyakarta from March to September 2019. The result of this study shows that there is one additional genus in Java, namely Cnidoscolus Pohl. The genus only consists of 1 species in Java, namely C. aconitifolius (Mill.) I.M. Johnst. Taxonomically, the species was divided into 2 subspecies, i.e. C. aconitifolius subsp. aconitifolius and C. aconitifolius subsp. polyanthus (Pax & K.Hoffm.) Breckon. Based on the pistillate flowers shape, the specimens from Java was identified as C. aconitifolius subsp. aconitifolius. The plant is native to Mexico and Mesoamerica and it was commonly cultivated in Java as vegetable crops. In Malesia, C. aconitifolius was previously cultivated in Brunei, Singapore, and The Philippines. Thus, its presence in Java was considered as a newly distributional record for Malesia region.

Abstract:
Currently, the use of medicinal plants is one of the most important biotechnological alternatives in the treatment of numerous diseases, particularly non-communicable diseases. One such plant, Cnidoscolus aconitifolius, also known as “chaya” in Mexico, is a rich source of bioactive phytochemicals. It is widely distributed across Central America and has ornamental, food, and medicinal values. Studies are needed to confirm that there are no negative effects after sustained consumption of Cnidoscolus aconitifolius. Experiments using animal models can be used to evaluate the possible chemopreventive effects of this plant against various diseases consistent with ethnobotanical information. Accordingly, a preclinical longitudinal experimental study in Sprague Dawley rats was conducted at 16 and 32 weeks' after the daily consumption of an infusion of chaya leaf. Bodyweight gain, food and beverage consumption, blood analysis, and histological analysis of the organs responsible for metabolism and excretion were evaluated. No significant differences were found between the control group and the group that consumed the chaya leaf infusion after 16 and 32 weeks. The proposed experimental model may be reliably used for research purposes to evaluate the possible effectiveness of this plant in preventing and/or treating chronic diseases.

Abstract:
Mesoamerica has been one of the most active centers of plant domestication worldwide. Along with the many well-known and economically important plants that originated in Mesoamerica exist a variety of other lesser known domesticated plants many of which remain important on a local or regional scale. One of these lesser known plants is chaya (Cnidoscolus aconitifolius, Euphorbiaceae), a shrub cultivated for its highly nutritious leaves. The article presents evidence bearing on the domestication and place of origin of the cultivated varieties of chaya and proposes a model describing the process of their domestication. Mesoaméérica ha sido uno de los centros de domesticacióón máás activos a nivel mundial. Junto con las muchas plantas econóómicas y conocidas de origen Mesoamericana, existen varias plantas domesticadas no tan conocidas, que sin embargo siguen siendo importantes a un nivel local o regional. Una de estas úúltimas es la chaya (Cnidoscolus aconitifolius,Euphorbiaceae), un arbusto cultivado por sus hojas nutritivas. Se presenta aquíí evidencia de la domesticacióón y lugar de origen de las variedades cultivadas de la chaya, y se propone un modelo para describir su processo de domesticacióón.

Resumo: A Doença Inflamatória Intestinal (DII) inclui duas principais doenças: a Doença de Crohn e a Retocolite Ulcerativa, ambas caracterizadas por períodos de exacerbação dos sintomas acompanhados por intervalos prolongados de remissão. Apesar da etiologia ser pouco elucidada, sabe-se da influência de fatores genéticos, imunológicos e ambientais. A terapia farmacológica atual não é eficaz para todos os pacientes, apresenta alto custo e desencadeia diversos efeitos colaterais, portanto é necessário o desenvolvimento de novas terapias sendo que as plantas medicinais e componentes presentes na dieta, devido as suas propriedades antioxidantes e/ou imunomoduladora, apresentam uma opção atrativa como terapia complementar. A espécie Cnidoscolus aconitifolius (Mill.) I.M. Johnst, popularmente conhecida como chaya, foi selecionada dada sua composição química, rica em fibra e compostos antioxidantes e suas atividades antioxidante e anti-inflamatória testadas em outras afecções. O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a atividade anti-inflamatória intestinal das folhas escaldadas e desidratadas de chaya em duas formas: como extrato metanólico 70% (100, 200 e 300 mg/kg, via oral por gavage) e como farinha incorporada na dieta nas concentrações 5, 10 e 20%, no modelo de indução de inflamação intestinal pelo ácido trinitrobenzenosulfonico (TNBS) em ratos.

Abstract: Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) comprise two major diseases, Crohn's disease and Ulcerative Colitis, both characterized by periods of exacerbation of symptoms accompanied by prolonged remission intervals. Although the etiology is not certain elucidated, the influence of genetic, immunological and environmental factors is well known. The current pharmacological therapy is not effective for all patients, due to a high cost and triggers several side effects. Therefore, it is necessary to develop new therapies and medicinal plants with their antioxidant and/or immunomodulatory properties are an attractive option as complementary therapy. Cnidoscolus aconitifolius (Mill.) I.M. Johnst, popularly known as chaya, was selected because of its chemical composition, rich in fiber and antioxidant compounds and its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity tested in other diseases. The aim of this study was to evaluate the intestinal anti-inflammatory activity of the blanched and dehydrated Chaya leaves in two preparations: as a 70% methanol extract (100, 200 and 300 mg/kg, oral route by gavage) and as flour incorporated in the diet at 5%, 10% and 20% concentrations in the experimental model of intestinal inflammation induced by trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid (TNBS) in rats. For that, clinical parameters (daily food intake, body weight, diarrhea), macroscopic damage (score, lesion extension, weight/length ratio and adherence), biochemical parameters (quantification of total glutathione con...

Abstract:
A series of experiments were carried out with the aim of evaluating chaya (Cnidoscolus aconitifolius) leaf meal (CLM), a fibrous protein-rich foodstuff, in terms of both digestibility and poultry performance as a potential ingredient to be utilised in poultry diets. In the first experiment, chaya plants at either 4, 8 or 12 weeks of re-growth were harvested. With the exceptions of ether extract and oxalic acid, no differences in chemical composition of the leaves were found between the different ages of re-growth for the contents of dry matter, crude protein, neutral detergent fibre, acid detergent fibre, lignin, ash or hydrogen cyanide. In experiment two, true metabolisable energy (TME) content as well as TME corrected to nitrogen equilibrium (TMEN) and dry matter and nitrogen digestibilities in CLM were evaluated in commercial broilers and criollo chickens. Neither CLM inputs nor genotype of the bird significantly affected the TMEN values. However, the collection period of droppings and the body weight of the bird significantly (P<0.05) affected TMEN. In experiment three, the effect of different fibre sources on endogenous losses of nitrogen, uric acid and amino acids as well as on energy balance and body weight loss were evaluated in cockerels. The different fibre sources caused significant (P<0.05) differences in all the dependent variables. An important fact, demonstrated by experiments 2 and 3, was that the endogenous losses of birds showed a very high variation; however, possible explanations for those findings were put forward. In experiment four, TME, net energy and heat increment values of CLM and wheatfeed were determined using cockerels in calorimeter chambers. Lower (P<0.05) values of TME and net energy were found in CLM compared to wheatfeed, and that was attributable to the different chemical composition of the ingredients evaluated and to the different properties of their fibre. In experiment five, the effect of different amounts of dietary CLM on apparent metabolisable energy (AME) of diets and on dry matter, nitrogen and amino acid digestibilities in broilers was evaluated.
