Abstract

Increasing globalization makes humans need the knowledge to compete globally. One way to increase knowledge is by reading. Reading comprehension is the process of interpreting a reading in order to gain a thorough knowledge of the passage. Therefore it is necessary to consume beverages to improve energy and cognitive function. In this study, the researcher used yellow turmeric rhizome steeping as an enhancer of cognitive function. The objective of this research was to determine the effect of consuming yellow turmeric rhizome steeping on the cognitive function which is reading comprehension. This study was quasi-experimental, comparative using pretest and post-test design, conducted on 30 men aged between 18-22 years. Participants were asked to do a reading comprehension test (pretest) than consume 200 cc of water mixed with 10 grams of yellow turmeric rhizome powder. Participants took rest for 90 minutes and asked to do a reading comprehension test (post-test). The measured data was the reading comprehension test score, in the form of a correct answer of 10 questions. Data were analyzed using Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test. The average score of correct answers increased very significantly, before consuming yellow turmeric steeping was 47,33 to 73,33 after consuming yellow turmeric rhizome steeping with p < 0,001. Therefore yellow turmeric rhizome steeping increases reading comprehension.

Abstract

The number of cancer patient is increasing, while a really effective therapy has not yet been discovered. One concept of carcinogenesis is the relation between chronic inflammation and cancer. Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) has a carcinogenic effect in inflamed and malignant tissues. Red Fruit contains carotenoid that can suppress COX-2 gene expression and tocopherol, which is a potent inhibitor of  COX-2.  The purpose of this study is to determine cytotoxic activity of Red Fruit oil and its effect on COX-2 gene expression. The experiment used 5 dosages of Red Fruit, 100, 200, 300, 400, and 500 µg/mL, exposed to Raji cells. However, unexposed Raji cells were used as control. Cytotoxic activities were evaluated by MTT Assay, while Lethal Concentration50 (LC50) was determined through regression-correlation analysis. Red Fruit oil effect on COX-2 gene expression was evaluated by Reversed Transcriptase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) method and electrophoresis. Electrophoresis bands were analyzed by Scion Image for Windows. Optical Integrated Density (OID) of unexposed and exposed groups were statistically analyzed with one way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA), followed by Duncan test with α=0.05. The results showed that Red Fruit had a cytotoxic activity on Raji cells with LC50 of331.42 µg/mL. Red Fruit suppressed COX-2 gene expression with an effective dosage obtained at 500 µg/mL.          Keywords: red fruit, cytotoxicity, cox-2 gene expression, raji cells

Abstract

Abstract—Ulcerative colitis (UC) is an idiopathic chronic inflammatory disease of the gastrointestinal tract which is one of the inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). In Indonesia, epidemiological data obtained from hospital reports, generally show that the incidence of UC is higher than Crohn's Disease (CD). Mesalamine as a drug of choice for UC, is related to some side effects. Therefore, herbal plants such as sambiloto (Andrographis paniculata) could be used as a complementary therapy in UC. The purpose of this article is to provide information about the potential mechanisms of andrographolide (AG) as a bioactive compound in sambiloto (Andrographis paniculata) extract as an anti-inflammatory agent. The method used by authors in this article is a narrative review method, by collecting studies about the anti-inflammatory effect of AG on UC through a database search. The results showed that one of the ingredients of sambiloto, diterpenoid labdane compound in the active form of AG, is able to inhibit the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines so that it has the potential to act as an anti-inflammatory similar to mesalamine in UC therapy. Additionally, sambiloto contains flavonoids and polyphenols which serve as antioxidants. In conclusion, AG has an anti-inflammatory property that might be utilized as a part of UC complementary therapy. Keywords: andrographolide, andrographis paniculata, inflammation, ulcerative colitis, sambiloto Abstrak—Kolitis ulseratif (KU) adalah penyakit inflamasi kronis idiopatik saluran pencernaan termasuk dalam salah satu inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Di Indonesia, data epidemiologi diperoleh dari pelaporan rumah sakit, secara umum menunjukkan insidensi KU lebih tinggi daripada Crohn’s Disease (CD). Mesalamine sebagai pilihan terapi untuk KU, dapat menimbulkan beberapa efek samping. Oleh karena itu, tanaman herbal seperti sambiloto Andrographis paniculata dapat digunakan sebagai terapi komplementer pada KU. Tujuan artikel ini adalah memberikan informasi mengenai potensi dan mekanisme senyawa bioaktif andrographolide (AG) pada ekstrak sambiloto (Andrographis paniculata) sebagai agen antiinflamasi. Metode yang digunakan oleh penulis dalam artikel ini adalah metode narrative review, dengan mengumpulkan beberapa studi tentang efek antiinflamatori dari AG pada KU melalui pencarian database. Hasil dari analisis data menunjukkan bahwa salah satu kandungan sambiloto, senyawa labdane diterpenoid dalam bentuk aktif AG, mampu menghambat ekspresi sitokin proinflamasi sehingga berpotensi sebagai antiinflamasi serupa dengan mesalamin pada terapi KU. Selain itu, sambiloto memiliki kandungan flavonoid dan polifenol yang berfungsi sebagai antioksidan. Sebagai simpulan, AG memiliki properti antiinflammatori yang dapat digunakan sebagai bagian dari terapi komplementer pada KU.

Abstract

Background: Accelerated aging is associated with increased exposure to reactive oxygen species (ROS), leading to lower collagen and elastin levels in the body. This reduction reduces microvascular activity, causing microcirculatory disorders and skin wrinkles. Administering collagen tripeptides can help improve the microcirculation system. Objective: This study aims to investigate the effects of collagen tripeptide on improving microcirculation, reducing skin wrinkles, and lowering excessive ROS toxicity. Method: The research method used is experimental with a pre-post study approach without using a control group and descriptive quantitative data analysis. We measured microcirculation using a microscope, quantified ROS levels with the QYM-DI microscope, and assessed nasolabial fold depth with an acupuncture needle. Results: The study results indicate that collagen tripeptide significantly improves microcirculation, reduces skin wrinkles, and decreases excessive ROS toxicity. The non-parametric Wilcoxon test results are as follows: (1) there is a significant difference before and after collagen tripeptide consumption in terms of microcirculation improvement (p = 0.000), reduction of skin wrinkles on the nasolabial folds (p = 0.008), and reduction of ROS (p = 0.000). This improves microcirculation, which in turn reduces skin wrinkles on the nasolabial folds. Conclusion: Consuming collagen tripeptide for three months can improve microcirculation, reduce skin wrinkles on the nasolabial folds, and reduces ROS.

Abstract

Dental caries or tooth decay is a result of the production of acid from fermentation ofbacteria that destroy tooth tissue. It can be prevented by maintaining the stability of salivaryvolume and acidity. Chewing xylitol gum is beneficial for increasing salivary volume andacidity. The aim of the study is to determine the effect of chewing xylitol gum on salivary volumeand acidity. The study is a quasi experiment conducted to 30 males aged between 17-25 yearsold. Pre and post treatment’s salivary volume are measured with measuring cup. Pre and posttreatment’s salivary acidity are measured using a pHmeter with 0,1 accuracy. Data areanalyzed with paired “t” test (a = 0,05). Average salivary volume after chewing xylitol gumincreased very significantly from 0,26 mL to 13,37mL (p=0,000). Average salivary acidity afterchewing xylitol gum increased very significantyly from 6,47 to 7,36(p=0,000). The researchconcludes that chewing xylitol gum increases salivary volume and acidity.Keywords : dental caries, xylitol, salivary volume, salivary acidity
