Abstract

Seahorse (Hippocampus kuda) is known to have a high concentration of iron, taurin and progesteron as testosteron precursor. Seahorse extract can increase the production of testosterone hormone of mice. On the erythrocytes development, kidney is stimulated to release erythropoietin hormone in case of hypoxia and also related with testosterone production. Erythropoietin control erythrocytes development and increase hemoglobin synthesis. The objective of experiment was to study the effect of seahorse extract as supplemented food in optimal concentration in range of 100, 200 and 300 mg/kg body weight on mice’s hematopoiesis and erythropoiesis. Each of treatment groups consist of 5 mices. The observed parameters were hematocrit value, hemoglobin concentration and renal index which observed on day 0, 34 and 67. The result showed that treatment of seahorse protein fraction extract until 300 mg/kg body weight dosage have no effect to the hematocrit value. The 200 mg/kg body weight extract dosage was able to increase the hemoglobin rate measurement. Renal index of Mice on day 34 and 67 after treatment did not give significant difference among treatment and control

Abstract

Aquilaria malaccensis Lamk., one of tree species producing agarwood, has been utilized by the people of Southeast Asia (particularly Indonesia and Malaysia) as a component in traditional medicine due to their phytochemical constituents. This study was carried out to assess acute toxicity of oral administration of ethanolic extract of A.malaccensis (EEAM) using female Wistar rats as model animal. Procedure in accordance with OECD Guidelines for the Testing of Chemicals Test No. 423 with administration dose of 2000 mg/kg bw (single-dose). Parameters observed including signs of toxicity, body weight, body temperature, hematological profile (complete blood count), as well as evaluation of liver function (ALT and bilirubin) and renal function (BUN and creatinine). Data were analyzed statistically based on one-way ANOVA (ɑ=0.05) continued with Duncan's post hoc test (ɑ=0.05) and visualized as line charts. Results showed that neither mortality nor sublethal effects were recorded during 14 days of the experiment. The chart exhibited that the group received EEAM demonstrated a comparable trend to the control group for all parameters. Therefore, it can be concluded that EEAM is safe or no-observed-adverse-effect-level (NOAEL) for single-dose oral administration at the dose of 2000 mg/kg bw. If standardized following the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labeling of Chemicals (GHS), EEAM is classified in Category 5 (LD50 > 2000 mg/kg bw). Based on this finding, we will continue to conduct further study to assess the repeated-dose acute oral toxicity of EEAM (subacute period)

Abstract

Evaluation of liver and renal functions are routine tests performed in preclinical studies. Liver plays a role in detoxification and secretion of various substances to regulate a wide range of metabolic functions. Kidneys serves as the main excretory and osmoregulatory organs. Thus, assessment of liver and renal functions are important in identifying the presence of damages and diseases as well as monitoring body responses towards treatments or therapy. Therefore, normal values should be established for valid reference. Until now, many researchers still use references from various publications, including foreign countries with different environmental factors and method of animals care. This study was aimed to provide reference values for liver and renal functions in male and female Wistar rats. Animals were sourced from LPPT-UGM. Age 4-, 6-, and 8-week-old represent juvenile, preadult, and adult. Blood samples were collected from orbital sinus of anesthetized animals. Sera were tested for ALT, AST, BUN, and creatinine based on spectrophotometry. Results demonstrated that values of most parameters varied, depend on sex and age. According to this finding, it can be concluded that reference values cannot be generalized but must be determined by sex and age in local population.

Abstract

Chronic Intermittent Hypoxia (CIH) can initiate oxidative stress and inflammation. Ficus carica is known to contain antioxidant compounds capable of suppressing oxidative stress. This study aims to investigate the protective role of Ficus carica puree (FCP) on the levels of Malondialdehyde (MDA), Superoxide Dismutase (SOD), SOD/MDA ratio, Platelet Lymphocyte Ratio (PLR), and Tumor Necrosis Factor-α (TNF-α) in the lungs of rats induced by CIH. Rats were treated with FCP at doses of 1.25 ml/200g (CIH-F1), 2.5 ml/200g (CIH-F2), and 5 ml/200g (CIH-F3). All rats, except for the neutral control group, were subjected to chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH) for 4 hours/day for 30 days. The CIH-F2 and CIH-F3 groups demonstrated significantly lower levels of lung MDA compared to the CIH group. The CIH-F3 group showed a considerably lower level of lung SOD compared to the CIH group. However, the SOD/MDA exhibited a considerably greater value in the CIH-F3 induction group compared to the other groups. The TNF-α in lungs and PLR levels were significantly lower in the CIH-F3 group than in the CIH group. These findings suggest that FCP may serve as a functional food to mitigate the negative impact of hypoxic circumstances on lung health.
