Abstract

West Lampung Regency in Lampung Province produces high quality robusta coffee with a distinct, strong bitter flavour. Bitter flavour indicates the amount of bioactive substances produced by plants called phytochemicals. The aim of this study is to analyse the phytochemical compounds and antihyperglycemic potential of robusta coffee beans from West Lampung, Indonesia. Quantitative phytochemical analysis was carried out using the thin layer chromatography method and spectrophotometry. Animal experimental design using robusta coffee on hyperglycemia conditions in mice which was induced by alloxan 170 mg/kgBW subcutaneously and given by 1 ml of brewed robusta coffee for 10 days. The robusta coffee from West Lampung contained total caffeine 4,014.87 µg/g, total flavonoid content (TFC) 93.6 mg quercetin equivalent per gram of sample, with total alkaloid content (TAC) 0.848 mg of quinine equivalent per gram of sample, total tannin content (TTC) 182.3 mg of tannic acid equivalent per gram of sample, and total saponin content (TSC) 24.2 mg of quillaja bark equivalent per gram of sample. The administration of 1 ml/mice/day of robusta coffee brewed for 10 days did not show a decrease in blood sugar level in hyperglycemic mice, due to the short duration of the study, so the role of coffee in decreasing hyperglycemia conditions has not been optimally observed.

Abstract

Hyperglycemia is a condition characterized by elevated blood glucose levels, which is a hallmark of diabetes mellitus. Prolonged hyperglycemia not only disrupts glucose homeostasis but also impairs the immune response. The condition of hyperglycemia in the body can increase free radicals and oxidative stress, thus can impair various macrophage functions, including their ability to engulf and eliminate pathogens. The bioactive constituents in Stachytarpheta sp. may contribute to reducing oxidative damage and enhancing immune system function. This study aims to evaluate both the antioxidant capacity and the immunomodulatory effects of Stachytarpheta sp. leaf extract on the phagocytic activity of peritoneal macrophages in alloxan-induced diabetic mice. Alloxan is widely used in research to induce hyperglycemia (diabetic conditions) in experimental animals. The antioxidant activity of the extract was evaluated using the DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) radical scavenging assay, while phagocytic activity of peritoneal macrophages was performed in vivo using male mice. Stachytarpheta sp. leaf extract from Beteng Sari Village, East Lampung has very strong antioxidant activity against DPPH with IC50 value 14,85 ± 0,30 μg/mL. This extract at doses of 200, 300, and 400 mg/kgBW can be an immunomodulator that maintains the phagocytic activity of macrophage cells in alloxan-induced mice.
