Abstract

Inflammatory diseases are diseases characterized by inflammatory symptoms. Acute inflammatory disease can cause dysregulation of the inflammatory immune response, thereby inhibiting the development of protective immunity against infection. Among the acute inflammatory disease is COVID-19. The initial viral infection causes the antigen-presenting cells to detect the virus through a phagocytosis mechanism in the form of macrophage and dendritic cells. Lactobacillus fermentum and L. plantarum are gram-positive bacteria potentially serving as immunomodulators caused by inflammation and immune system response. Short-chain fatty acids (SCFA) produced by Lactobacillus can induce immune response through tolerogenic dendritic cells. This probiotic bacterium can induce the production of different cytokines or chemokines. Following the results of in vitro and in vivo tests, L. fermentum and L. plantarum can induce IL-10 release to activate regulatory T-cell and inhibit tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) binding activity of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB). Literature review showed that dysregulation of inflammatory immune response disorders due to inflammatory disease could be treated using probiotic bacteria L. fermentum and L. plantarum. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct further studies on the potential of indigenous Indonesian strains of these two bacteria as anti-inflammatory and immunostimulants.

Abstract

Kombucha is a fermented tea drink using a symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast. This drink has been widely used to maintain blood sugar levels. Meanwhile, leaf boiled water of Syzygium polyanthum (Wight) Walp. has been used as an alternative medicine for diabetes mellitus in Indonesia. If this herb is made into kombucha, it may have higher antihyperglycemic activity than kombucha from tea leaves. However, there are no scientific reports of antihyperglycemic activity from S. polyanthum leaf kombucha by inhibiting alpha-glucosidase. This study aims to determine the activity and kinetics inhibition of S. polyanthum leaves kombucha against α-glucosidase. Samples were prepared at varying concentrations (12.5, 25, 37.5, 50 g/L), while phytochemical components in the products were identified, and the inhibitory activity as well as kinetics were comprehensively analyzed. In silico evaluations were conducted to further explore the inhibitory activity. The results showed that the products contained secondary metabolites such as flavonoids, saponins, and tannins. The inhibitory activity against α-glucosidase ranged from 81.05 to 89.41%. The inhibition mechanism was identified as uncompetitive, with a Michaelis-Menten constant (KM) of 0.1357 mM and a vmax value of 27.7008 U/ml minute. Several metabolites showed promising inhibition potential due to their strong binding interactions with α-glucosidase, including hydrogen bonding (H-bond), hydrophobic interactions, van der Waals forces, and electrostatic forces. Additionally, two metabolites, farnesol and α-pinene, were found to interact with other human proteins. These observations showed the potential of S. polyanthum leaves kombucha as a health-promoting beverage that might aid blood sugar control in diabetic individuals.

Abstract

Jengkol (Archidendron jiringa (Jack).I.C. Nielsen) skin for this belongs to the organic wastes that do not provide economic value. Compounds of natural ingredients on the Jengkol Skin among others, alkaloids, flavonoids, tannins, saponins, and triterpenoids. Some of the molecular structures of the compound are thought to potentially in inhibiting the growth of cancer cells. This research aimed to determine the cytotoxicity effect of 70% ethanol extract of Jengkol Skin as anticancer. Jengkol Skin was macerated in ethanol 70% then extract was concentrated with a rotary vacuum evaporator and water bath. Cytotoxicity test was carried out using cells MCF-7 (breast cancer) and HeLa cells (cervical cancer) based upon the method of MTT assay. The parameter was the value measured inhibition concentration (IC50). Extracts of the Jengkol Skin showed activity against cytotoxicity MCF-7 cells with IC50 values of 51.76 μg/mL and for the IC50 value of HeLa cells 39.618 μg/mL. IC50 values of the cell were less than 100 μg/mL, indicated categories of potential cytotoxicity. The Jengkol Skin extract could be used as anticancer agents.

Abstract

Antioksidan merupakan salah satu solusi untuk mencegah terjadinya oksidasi pada radikal bebas yang menyebabkan berbagi penyakit. Antioksidan dibedakan berdasarkan sumbernya, yaitu antioksidan alami dan buatan. Senyawa antioksidan alami umunya berasal dari senyawa fenolik dan polifenolik, yang merupakan golongan flavonoid. Kedelai mengandung flavonoid berupa isovlafon yang berperan sebagai antioksidan. Selain kedelai, jahe merah juga merupakan antioksidan alami, mengandung senyawa aktif fenolik seperti, gingreol, shagaol dan ginggerdiol. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menentukan aktivitas antioksidan dan menguji karakteristik dari yoghurt kacang kedelai yang ditambah sari jahe merah. Yoghurt sari kedelai yang diperoleh diuji karakteristik meliputi, pH, uji total asam, uji total bakteri asam laktat, uji organoleptik, uji aktivitas antioksidan dan uji toal fenol.

Abstract

Alzheimer's disease is a progressive neurological disorder that can impact adults aged 65 and beyond. A primary factor contributing to Alzheimer’s is the diminished availability of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine in the brain. Plants from the Lamiaceae family have been believed to possess potential as acetylcholinesterase inhibitors (AChEI) that can alleviate the symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease. This study aims to find possible bioactive compounds from plants of the Lamiaceae family, specifically Salvia officinalis L., Salvia lavandulifolia Vahl., Rosmarinus officinalis L., Collinsonia canadensis L., and Melissa officinalis L., as acetylcholinesterase inhibitors using in silico approaches. Active compounds from the Lamiaceae family were evaluated based on physicochemical properties, toxicity, Gibbs free energy (∆G), inhibition constant (Ki), absorption, excretion, metabolism, distribution, and molecular dynamics. From a total of 1,370 compounds derived from Lamiaceae plants, the compound 3,5,5-Trimethyl-4-[3-[3,4,5-trihydroxy-6-(hydroxymethyl) oxan-2]-yl]oxybut-1-enyl] cyclohex-2-en-1-one (TOC) from Salvia officinalis L. exhibited potential as an AChEI, possessing a molecular weight of 370 Daltons, 4 hydrogen donors, 7 hydrogen acceptors, a Log P partition coefficient of 3.46, a molar refractivity of 100, a Gibbs free energy change (∆G) of -11.2 kcal/mol, an inhibition constant (Ki) of 0.981 μM, and a total energy calculated via Molecular Mechanics Generalized Born Surface Area of 31.381 kcal/mol. In silico, the TOC ligand inhibits acetylcholinesterase to treat Alzheimer's.
