Abstract

Diabetes mellitus is a chronic hyperglycemic syndrome that can be accompanied by lipid metabolism disorders. Alloxan is a diabetogenic agent that is associated with an increase in LDL cholesterol levels. Patin fish contain omega-3 and oleic acid, which can potentially reduce or control LDL cholesterol levels. This study aims to determine the effect of Patin fish (Pangasius hypothalmus) oil extract on LDL cholesterol levels of alloxan-induced Rattus norvegicus. The method of this study is the post-test-only control group design. Twenty-seven experimental animals were divided into 3 groups; (1) the 1st group was without treatment, (2) 2nd group was induced with 150 mg/kg BW alloxan on the 7th day; (3) 3rd group was induced with 150 mg/kg BW alloxan on the 7th day and given the Patin fish oil extract at a dose of 73 mg/kg BW on the 10th day for 14 days. Blood samples were taken on the 24th day to determine LDL cholesterol levels. The results of the One-Way ANOVA test showed a significant mean difference, p=0,001 (p<a). The results of the Post-Hoc LSD test showed a meant difference between the 1st group and the 2nd control group p=0,001 (p<a); 2nd group and 3rd group p=0,026 (p<a); between the 1st group and the 3rd group p=0,015 (p<a). Giving alloxan 150 mg/kg BW can significantly increase LDL cholesterol levels of Rattus norvegicus and administration of Patin fish oil extract 73 mg/kg BW can significantly reduce LDL cholesterol levels of Rattus norvegicus.

Abstract

Paracetamol is widely used in therapy, yet it becomes hepatotoxic agent in a high dose using. The CYP450 enzyme metabolizes a small portion of paracetamol to a reactive substance, NAPQI. High dose of paracetamol causes an extensive increase in NAPQI levels. NAPQI then binds to hepatocytes conditions of oxidative stress. Spirulina platensis contains C-phycocyanin, flavonoids, and phenolics that inhibit lipid peroxidation and reduce oxidative stress. This study aims to determine the effect of Spirulina platensis on MDA levels in the liver tissue of male Wistar rats induced by high dose of paracetamol. This research was experimental with a Randomized Post-test Only Control Group design using 24 white male rats divided into three groups; negative control group (G-), positive control group (G+) was given paracetamol at a dose of 1,250 mg/kg on the 8th day, and treatment group (Gt) was given an amount of Spirulina platensis extract 360 mg/kg BW/day for ten days from 1st until 10th day and paracetamol at a single dose of 1,250 mg/kg BW on the 8th. At the 10th day of the treatment, all groups were terminated for liver tissue collection. TBA test was used to calculate MDA levels. Statistical tests analyzed the results of the data. This statistical tests by SPSS software: MDA levels in the treatment group did not significantly differ (p = 0.144) compared to the negative control group. There was a significant difference of liver tissue MDA levels in the treatment group (p = 0.016) compared to the positive control group.  This study concludes that administering Spirulina platensis at a dose of 360 mg/kg/day for ten days can help prevent on increase in tissue MDA levels and maintain liver conditions close to their original state.
