Abstract

Sepsis is a systemic infection that significantly causes morbidity and mortality among neonates, which is associated with immature immune response. Variations in the tumor necrosis factor-alpha gene (TNF-α) -308G/A may be linked to neonatal sepsis mortality by modulating interleukins (ILs) involved in the immune response cascade, such as IL-6. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between TNF-α -308G/A gene variation and IL-6 level with mortality of neonatal sepsis. A cohort of 30 neonates diagnosed with clinical sepsis was recruited. Blood culture was performed for all patients and serum IL-6 levels were examined 24 hours after suspected sepsis. Genetic analysis of TNF-α single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) -308G/A was conducted using polymerase chain reaction and DNA sequencing. The association was assessed based on bivariate logistic regression. We found that 12 (40%) of 30 patients had blood culture-proven sepsis. Genotype of TNF-α -308G/A stratified of the patients was 56.7% for GA and 43.3% for GG. There were no AA variations found in this study. There was no significant association between the TNF-α -308 G/A genotype and mortality in neonatal sepsis (p=0.211). Similarly, the allelic model of TNF-α -308 gene had no association with mortality (p=0.325). Additionally, there was no association between serum IL-6 level and mortality in neonatal sepsis (p=0.253). In conclusion, SNP of TNF-α -308 gene and IL-6 level are not associated with mortality in neonatal sepsis.

Abstract

The impact of free radicals on testicular Leydig cells can result in the disruption of male reproductive health. The present study aimed to evaluate the effects of a high-fat diet on Leydig cells and the potential of kepok banana peel extract as a medication to mitigate these effects. In total of 20 adult male Wistar rats were assigned to five groups and treated with standard feed (P1), high-fat feed (P2), high-fat feed with simvastatin (P3), and high-fat feed with banana peel extract at doses of 100 and 200 mg/kg BW (P4 and P5). After 60 days of treatment, the number of Leydig cells was determined using HE staining methods. Data were analyzed using an One Way ANOVA test. The results showed that the administration of 100 mg/kg BW of kepok banana peel extract (P4) was able to maintain the number of Leydig cells and counteract the negative effects of a high-fat diet. These findings suggest that kepok banana peel extract may have the potential as a herbal medicine for supporting male reproductive health.

Abstract

Monosodium glutamate (MSG) enhances flavor during food processing by providing an umami taste, but its metabolic by-products can cause liver injury. The liver is crucial for the metabolism of xenobiotics including glutamate. Black garlic, derived from fresh garlic (Allium sativum L.) through chemical reactions and heat treatment, may have hepatoprotective properties; however, studies are limited. This study assessed the hepatoprotective effects of black garlic extract (BGE) on MSG-induced liver damage. Twenty-five Wistar rats (Rattus norvegicus) were divided into five groups (n = 5): P0 (negative control); P1 (MSG group), 8 mg/kg MSG for 21 days; and P2, P3, and P4, receiving the same MSG protocol as P1 plus BGE doses of 200, 400, and 600 mg/kg body weight, respectively, for 16 days. After the experiment, rats were euthanized for liver tissue extraction. Although liver weights in the BGE-treated groups were lower than those in the MSG group, the difference was not statistically significant. These results indicated that a BGE dose of 200 mg/kg body weight mitigated MSG-induced hepatic damage. Further biochemical and histological studies are required to elucidate the mechanism of BGE's hepatoprotective action of BGE against MSG-induced hepatotoxicity.

Abstract

Bulbus oculi prolapse is a condition characterized by the protrusion of the eyeball from the eye socket, which can be caused by various factors such as trauma, elevated intraocular pressure, and abnormalities in the eye muscles. This case study aimed to examine the treatment of bulbus oculi prolapse in domestic cats. A female calico cat named Mici presented with a chronic left eye injury that had become infected, leading to inflammation and persistent ocular discharge. The cats body weight was 0.7 kg, and its temperature was 38.2C. Surgical treatment was performed using an enucleation technique. The procedure involved an incision along the mid-anterior eyelid, extending to the lower eyelid. Dissection was carried out to expose the bulbus oculi, which was then ligated and excised. The eyelid margins were sutured using simple interrupted sutures. Postoperatively, the cat was administered antibiotics and antihistamines.
