Abstract

Introdiction: Oxidative stress is a condition caused by an imbalance between the level of oxidants in cells and tissues and the ability of the biological system to detoxify these reactive products. To compensate for the excess oxidant molecules, the human body requires the intake of antioxidant compounds through diet or medicinal plants to overcome the deficiency of these endogenous antioxidants. Zerumbone is the main bioactive compound of the Zingiber zerumbet L. Smith rhizome that was reported to have antioxidant activity and different pharmacological effects, like anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, antidiabetic, immunomodulatory, anti-neurodegenerative disease, hepatoprotective, and gastroprotective. Aims: This review aims to gather available scientific research data regarding the antioxidant activity of zerumbone and its pharmacological prospects under conditions of oxidative stress. This paper is an overview of previous research on the various pharmacological activities of zerumbone and studies of its mechanism of action related to oxidative stress at the molecular level. The selected articles are related research reports for the 2010–2022 period, which can be accessed online through NCBI, Science Direct, MDPI, and Google Scholar. Result: The research results mentioned in this review paper can summarize knowledge to explain the pharmacological potential of zerumbone so that it can be used as a starting point or comparison in designing further research. Conclusion: The results of the reviews show that the various pharmacological prospects of zerumbone are related to oxidative stress conditions through various modes of action.

Abstract

Zerumbone has been reported for their several biological activities. In our interest to this compound, we have identified and analyzed its content in Zingiber zerumbet, a medicinal plant from Indonesian traditional medicine and investigated its inhibitory activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis, a known infection bacteria of tuberculosis. Analysis of zerumbone was performed with densitometry to leave, rhizome, flower, and stem of Z. zerumbet which was extracted with various solvent system and extraction methods to determine the best method to isolate zerumbone from Z. zerumbet. Result showed that the highest zerumbone was in rhizome while was not observed in other part. Analysis with various solvent and extraction methods showed the highest yield of zerumbone can be extracted by n-hexane (maceration) and reflux extraction method (methanol). Furthermore, inhibitory activity of zerumbone against M. tuberculosis was tested using Lowenstein Jensen medium by counting the number of M. tuberculosis colony growth in medium. Resulted inhibitory activity of zerumbone at all test concentration (0.5, 0.1, 0.05, 0.01, 0.005%) with the growth of 10, 12, 14, 15, and 50 colonies of M. tuberculosis was observed, respectively. This is indicate that zerumbone can be used as an alternative choice for treatment tuberculosis in the future.

Abstract

Mulberry (Morus alba L.) leaf has been used as a traditional medicine for treatment of some tropical diseases and also popular using for silkworm feed. On this research, anti-inflammatory and wound healing activities of the bark extract has been investigated in vivo. The bark was extracted with three organic solvent in a different polarity to carry out a group compounds in n-hexane extract (EH), Eto-Ac extract (EE), and EtOH extract (EO). Anti-inflammatory was investigated on inflammatory mice induced by 1% carrageenan. Among the extract (200mg/kg BW), EE showed strongly decrease inflammation by 42% than the other extract and stronger than the positive control, Na-diclofenac. Further investigation on healing effect of wound and burn injury which was tested at concentration of 1% topically to each extract. All the extract significantly showed healing activity, among them EE was observed as the stronger one while slightly less than the positive control. This result indicated that the most active compounds on anti-inflammatory and healing wounded was extracted with ethyl acetate that could be used for drug discovery.
