Abstract

One of the medicinal Zingiberaceae plants which is regularly used by the society as a traditional remedy is turmeric rhizome. The pharmacological properties of turmeric rhizome include anti-inflammatory, anti-immunodeficiency, anti-viral. Anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, anti-oxidant, anti-carcinogenic, and anti-infectious. This study aimed to identify the immunomodulator activity of curcuminoid extract of turmeric rhizome against the increase of leucocyte and its components, lymphocyte and neutrophil in white Galur Wistar rats that had been injected with Staphylococcus aureus. These test animals were given curcuminoid extract in VCO 100 mg/ml on a dosage of 1 ml, 0,5 ml, 0,25 ml curcuminoid powder 200 mg/kg body weight. Curcuminoid was suspended in Na CMC0,5%, Levamisole 25 mg/kg of body weight suspended in Na CMC 0,5%, VCO 1 ml. For the negative control, merely Na CMC 0,5% was given. The extract was orally given daily for 14 days. On the 4th day, Staphylococcus aureus was injected intra-peritoneally. The rats’ blood was then drawn from the heart and was observed to calculate the volume of the leucocytes, lymphocyte, and neutrophil which was conducted using flow cytometry.The findings suggested that there was a significant difference between the immunomodulatory activity of the curcuminoid extract in VCO at the doses of 1 ml, 0,5 ml, 0,25 ml on the increase in leucocyte, lymphocyte, and neutrophil compared to that of the negative control.Therefore, the findings of this study indicated that the extracts of curcuminoid in VCO could increase the number of leucocytes, lymphocytes, and neutrophils. Thus, the curcuminoid extract of turmeric rhizome in VCO potentially possessed immunomodulatory activity.

Abstract

Infections caused by multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria are on the rise globally. MDR is facilitated by overexpression of efflux pump and permeability changes of membrane. Acinetobacter baumannii is a pathogenic germ that causes a major problem in infection, also, there has been an increase in the incidence of resistance to various antibiotics. The present study highlights the synergistic of ethanolic extract of Curcuma domestica (EECD) rhizome with tetracycline against multidrug-resistant A. baumannii (MDR-Ab). Assessment of Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) was determined by microdilution using 96-well plates. The synergistic effect of EECD and tetracycline was determined by checkerboard method. The effect of EECD and tetracycline combination was investigated by bacteriolytic activity and inhibition of efflux pump by Ethidium Bromide (EtBr) accumulation assay. EECD presented the MIC value 250 µg/mL against MDR-Ab. Fractional Inhibitory Concentration Index (FICI) value of EECD and tetracycline combination was 0.4, which showed their synergistic effect. Additionally, the combination of EECD and tetracycline could inhibit the efflux pump in MDR-Ab. This combination can also compromise cell integrity by altering membrane permeability thus lysing the bacteria cells. According to these results, EECD and tetracycline combination has synergistic effects at some sites of action, and thus could be used as a breakthrough to overcome infection problems due to MDR-Ab.

Abstract

The natural human environment is inhabited by various organisms, including those harmful to the body such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, and other pathogens. This condition weakens the immune system's response to pathogens, making the body more susceptible to diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, cancer, and other inflammations. In some cases, this condition can be fatal, leading to death. This study aims to examine the immunomodulatory effects of Ethanol Extract of Lime Peel on phagocytosis activity and delayed-type hypersensitivity response in experimental animals. The research methods include sample collection and processing, plant identification, extract preparation, and immunomodulatory effect testing. Phytochemical screening results showed the presence of alkaloids, glycosides, flavonoids, tannins, and steroids in the extract of the lime peel. Simplicia and ethanol extract of lime peel characterization yielded results meet the standards of the Indonesian Herbal Pharmacopoeia 2nd edition. Immunomodulatory effect testing was conducted through phagocytosis activity and delayed-type hypersensitivity response assays. The results showed that the extract at doses of 25, 50, and 100 mg/kgBW had immunostimulatory effects in enhancing phagocytosis activity, while doses of 17.5 mg/kgBW, 35 mg/kgBW, and 70 mg/kgBW significantly increased delayed-type hypersensitivity response compared to the negative control. These findings indicate the potential of ethanol extract of Citrus aurantifolia as an immunomodulator that can enhance the body's immune system. This study provides an important contribution to the development of immunomodulatory therapy derived from natural ingredients such as lime peel for managing immunity-related diseases with lower side effects.
