Abstract

Fungi endofit berpotensi sebagai alternatif pengobatan karena menghasilkan senyawa yang sama dengan tumbuhan inangnya. Allium cepa memiliki manfaat sebagai antifungi dan antikolesterol. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah isolasi, identifikasi, serta melakukan uji antifungi dan antikolesterol. Isolat yang diperoleh diidentifikasi secara makroskopik dan mikroskopik. Metode uji antifungi terhadap Candida albicans adalah metode difusi agar dan metode uji antikolesterol menggunakan rancangan acak lengkap (pre and posttest control design). Hasil isolasi fungi endofit diperoleh isolat FEAC 1 dan FEAC 2. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa FEAC 2 memiliki zona hambat sebesar 7,389 mm dan menurunkan kolesterol total secara signifikan serta meningkatkan kolesterol HDL.

Abstract

Breast cancer remains one of the most common cancers worldwide, with VEGFR-2 (KDR) playing a key role in tumor angiogenesis. Inhibiting VEGFR-2 is a promising therapeutic strategy. Natural compounds are increasingly studied for their potential to inhibit VEGFR-2. This study aims to assess the binding affinity of 11 natural compounds (andrographolide, alpha-mangostin, pinostrobin, pinocembrin, ethyl-p-methoxycinnamate (EPMS), xanthorrhizol, galangin, gamma-mangostin, curcumin, cinnamaldehyde, and alashanoid B) to the VEGFR-2 protein through molecular docking and Lipinski's rule analysis, identifying promising candidates for breast cancer treatment. Molecular docking simulations were performed for 11 compounds and sunitinib as a control, with binding energies and interactions analyzed. The compounds were also evaluated for drug-likeness using Lipinski’s rule of five. Curcumin showed the highest binding affinity to VEGFR-2 with a binding energy of -9.9 kcal/mol, surpassing sunitinib (-9.4 kcal/mol). Key interactions were observed with active site residues Cys919 and Asp1046. All tested compounds met the criteria for oral bioavailability per Lipinski’s rules. Curcumin demonstrates potential as a VEGFR-2 inhibitor due to its favorable binding affinity and drug-like properties. Enhancing curcumin’s bioavailability is recommended for effective therapeutic application.

Abstract

Breast cancer is a second deadly cancer after lung cancer worldwide. Progression of cancer is driven by mutated cancer drive gene such as ARHGAP35. This study aims to analyze the role of ARHGAP35 in the growth and development of breast cancer cells. ARHGAP35 expression level was analyzed using Oncomine (p-value<1E-4; gene rank top 10%). Overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) were evaluated by using GEPIA (median cutoff; HR displayed with 95% CI). STRING was used for analyzing the protein-protein interaction network, while WEBGESTALT for KEGG pathway and gene ontology (GO) of ARHGAP35 and associated proteins and cBioPortal for gene mutation. ARHGAP35 was overexpressed in several types of breast cancer, namely invasive ductal breast carcinoma (IDC), invasive ductal and lobular breast carcinoma (IDLC), invasive lobular breast carcinoma (ILC), male breast carcinoma, and mixed ductal and lobular carcinoma (MDLC). High expression of ARHGAP35 had significantly lower OS (p=0.045) compared to low expression of ARHGAP35 and the difference in DFS was not significant (p=0.98). ARHGAP35 interacted with RHOA, RHOB, RHOC, RHOD, RASA1, RND1, RAC1, CDC42, FYN and SRC. KEGG pathway and GO analysis showed that these proteins are highly involved in actin-based processes through adherent junction, axon guidance, focal adhesion, regulation of actin cytoskeleton, and tight junction. Mutation rate analysis showed 34 missense, 29 truncating, 3 fusion, and 1 in frame on ARHGAP35. Taken together, ARHGAP35 may involve in the growth and development of breast cancer through regulation of actin cytoskeleton pathway.Keywords: ARHGAP35, breast cancer, KEGG pathway, mutation rate, actin cytoskeleton.

Abstract

Latar Belakang: Diabetes melitus (DM) perlu dicegah karena tergolong penyakit silent killer. Sebagian kasus adalah DM Tipe 2. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian sebelumnya menunjukkan masyarakat di Banyumas sudah mempunyai tingkat pengetahuan cukup baik, tetapi belum mempunyai sikap yang cukup baik terhadap pencegahan DM Tipe 2. Perlu dilakukan edukasi kepada masyarakat serta deteksi dini DM melalui pemeriksaan gula darah. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengetahui perbedaan pengetahuan dan sikap masyarakat di Desa X, Kabupaten Banyumas terhadap DM Tipe 2 sebelum dan sesudah edukasi. Metode: Desain penelitian menggunakan quasi experiment dilakukan selama bulan Agustus 2023. Kuesioner digunakan untuk menilai pengetahuan dan sikap. Responden menjawab pertanyaan kuesioner pre-test, kemudian diberikan edukasi dan menjawab kuesioner post-test. Edukasi DM Tipe 2 dilakukan melalui penyampaian materi secara lisan dan tulisan melalui paparan menggunakan media slide Power Point dan modul. Sampel adalah masyarakat Desa X, Kabupaten Banyumas sebanyak 30 orang. Analisis perbedaan pengetahuan dan sikap menggunakan uji Wilcoxon.Hasil: Hasil uji Wilcoxon memperlihatkan bahwa tidak ada perbedaan signifikan pengetahuan dan sikap masyarakat Desa X tentang DM Tipe 2 sebelum dan sesudah edukasi dengan nilai p=0,07 dan p=0,948. Kesimpulan: Tidak ada perbedaan signifikan pengetahuan dan sikap masyarakat Desa X, Kabupaten Banyumas sebelum dan sesudah edukasi DM Tipe 2.

Abstract

Chalcones, a class of naturally occurring compounds, exhibit a broad spectrum of biological activities, including anticancer properties. In this study, a series of methoxylated chalcones were synthesized via Claisen-Schmidt condensation and evaluated for cytotoxic activity against breast cancer MCF-7 and prostate cancer DU-145 cell lines. The synthetic route involved Claisen-Schmidt condensation, leading to various methoxy-substituted chalcone derivatives. The structures of the synthesized chalcones were confirmed through NMR and mass spectrometry. Cytotoxicity was assessed using the PrestoBlue assay, with 4-bromochalcone (compound 2) displaying the highest cytotoxic activity against MCF-7 cancer cell lines (IC50 = 26.99 µM). These results indicate that methoxylated chalcones hold promise as potential lead compounds for the development of new anticancer agents targeting breast and prostate cancer.

Abstract

Multiple myeloma is a blood cancer characterized by the abnormal proliferation of B cells that accumulate in the bone marrow. The proliferation of these cells depends on the role of the proteasome through the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway to degrade proteins that regulate the cell cycle, apoptosis, and stress response. The proteasome is the main target of proteasome inhibitors for the treatment of multiple myeloma. Flavonoid compounds in Hibiscus sabdariffa flowers, such as isoquercitrin, quercitrin, quercetagetin, isorhamnetin, and astragalin, have the potential to act as proteasome inhibitors. The insilico study aims to determine the potential of these compounds as proteasome inhibitors based on the results of molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation. Molecular docking was performed using AutoDock Vina, PyMol, and BIOVIA Discovery Studio. The best compounds from the docking results were then tested for interaction stability through molecular dynamics using YASARA software. Quercetagetin, isoquercitrin, and isohamnetin, based on the results of molecular docking, have the lowest binding affinity of -6.0, -5.7, and -5.5 kcal/mol, respectively. The three compounds bind to the active site of the 20S proteasome, namely Thr1, Ala20, Thr21, and Ala49. The RMSD values in the molecular dynamics of quercetagetin (1.290 Å), isorhamnetin (1.839 Å), and carfilzomib (1.843 Å). The binding affinity of quercetagetin (-422.623 kJ/mol), isorhamnetin (-438.388 kJ/mol), and carfilzomib (664.956 kJ/mol). Molecular docking and molecular dynamics findings indicate that isorhamnetin binds to the amino acid residues Thr1 and Ala49, which are the active sites of the 20S proteasome.
