Abstract

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a physiological abnormality in the kidneys whose prevalence is expected to continue to increase. On the other hand, Bitter melon (Momordica charantia L.) is known to have the potential to manage CKD. This study explores the compound content of M. charantia ethanol extract (MCEE) and its potential for CKD based on in vitro assays. To model chronic kidney disease (CKD), SV40 MES-13 (mouse glomerular mesangial) cells were exposed for 3 days to 20 mM glucose. After glucose induction, the cells were subjected with different concentrations of MCEE (Momordica charantia L. ethanolic extract). The chemical profile of MCEE was analyzed using LC/MS-MS. Cell viability was examined through the WST assay, while intracellular ROS and apoptosis levels were measured by flowcytometry. Colorimetry was used to analyze SOD, MDA, and CAT levels. ELISA was used to analyze inflammatory proteins (TGF-β 1, IL-6, TNF-α, IL-1β ) levels. Meanwhile, the relative gene expression of SMAD-2, SMAD-3, SMAD-4, SMAD-7 was examined through qRT-PCR. The results exhibited that MCEE contains cucurbitane p-coumaric, ferulic acid, caffeic acid, gallic acid, chlorogenic acid, and epicatechin. MCEE was also known to be non-toxic to SV40 MES-13 cells. In addition, MCEE reduced intracellular ROS levels, MDA, necrosis levels, and inflammatory proteins, while also regulating SMAD-2, SMAD-3, and SMAD-4 gene expression. MCEE increased levels of CAT, and SOD, and regulated SMAD-7 gene expression in the CKD cells model. The most effective MCEE is MCEE 50 μg/mL. MCEE demonstrated potential as a CKD treatment based on in vitro studies through TGF/SMADs signaling activity, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and apoptosis inducer.

Abstract

The prevalence of prostate cancer cases in men is expected to continue increase. In 2040, it is estimated that there will be 2.293.818 new cases and a 1.05% increase in the death rate due to prostate cancer. Eurycoma longifolia Jack roots extract (ELE) has potential as an alternative treatment. This study aims to analyze ELE potential as an anti-prostate cancer agent through in silico assay and in vitro assays on the prostate cancer cell line (PC-3). ELE compounds were docked against Casp-3, Casp-8, HAX-1, p27, and PTEN. In vitro assays on PC-3 cells were used, namely cell viability (WST-8), ROS levels; cell cycle; and cell apoptosis (flow cytometry), PC-3 cell senescence (μ-Galactosidase staining), Casp-3; Casp-8; HAX-1; p27; and PTEN gene expression (qRT-PCR). All proteins target were successfully docked with ELE compounds and presented binding interactions. ELE is known to reduce viability, intracellular ROS levels, live cells, necrosis, and reduce HAX-1 gene expression, and inhibit the cell cycle G0/G1 phase. ELE can also increase inhibition, senescence, late and early apoptosis, and Casp-3, Casp-8, p27, and PTEN gene expression. ELE 100 μg/mL is the most effective concentration. ELE has potential as an anti-prostate cancer agent through apoptosis, cell cycle, and antioxidant pathways

Abstract

Wound healing often requires specialized interventions to accelerate recovery due to prolonged inflammation and limited regenerative factors. Umbilical Cord Mesenchymal Stem Cells secretome (UCMSCs) comprises various cytokines and growth factors that can promote wound healing. This study aims to analyze the potential of a secretome-based hydrogel as a wound-healing agent using BJ fibroblast cells induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and scratch injury as an inflammation model. The secretome hydrogel was formulated using Carbopol, Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose (HPMC), Hydroxyethyl Cellulose (HEC), and secretome. Cytotoxicity was conducted using the WST-8 assay, while cell migration was evaluated through a scratch assay. Tumor Necrosis Factor-???? (TNF-????), Nuclear Factor kappa-B (NF-????B), and Interleukin-8 (IL-8) gene expression were analyzed via qRT-PCR. Additionally, malondialdehyde (MDA) levels were measured for oxidative stress assessment, whereas Connective Tissue Growth Factor (CTGF) and Transforming Growth Factor-????1 (TGF-????1) levels were quantified using ELISA and colorimetric assays. The secretome hydrogel exhibited no cytotoxic effects on BJ fibroblast cells and significantly enhanced cell migration. Moreover, it reduced the TNF-????, IL-8, and NF-????B expression, indicating anti-inflammatory activity. The hydrogel also decreased MDA levels while increasing TGF-β1 and CTGF expression, suggesting antioxidant properties and enhanced tissue regeneration in the inflammatory model. The secretome-based hydrogel presents a promising therapeutic approach for promoting chronic wound healing by modulating inflammation, reducing oxidative stress, enhancing tissue regeneration, and stimulating fibroblast migration.
