Abstract

BackgroundNicotine, as the main component of cigarettes, is known to interfere with the proliferation of human gingival fibroblasts (HGFs) and can trigger oxidative stress. This study aimed to analyze the impact of nicotine on viability, expression of the antioxidant Nrf2, levels of the product of oxidative stress malondialdehyde (MDA), and the migration capacity of HGFs. MethodsAn experimental laboratory study used fibroblasts isolated from healthy human gingiva. The cells were grouped into the non-treatment control group (NTC), the solvent control (SC), and the treatment groups, exposed to nicotine at various concentrations for twenty-four hours. Cell viability was assesed using the cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8), Nrf2 expression was examined using ELISA, MDA level was measured using an MDA kit, and migration capacity was assessed using a scratch assay. Statistical analysis used one-way Anova or Kruskal-Wallis test. A p-value of <0.05 was expressed statistically significant. ResultsThe Cell viability was substantially reduced in the nicotine group compared to the untreated group, accompanied by changes in cell morphology. In contrast, Nrf2 expression increased significantly (p=0.010) in the 5 mM nicotine group compared with the control group. The MDA levels were not significantly distinct across groups (p=0.056). Cell migration was delayed significantly in the 5 mM nicotine group at 72 hours after scratching compared to the control group. ConclusionNicotine decreased HGFs viability and increased Nrf2 expression significantly in a dose-dependent manner. Nicotine at 5 mM concentration did not alter MDA levels but delayed cell migration.

Abstract

Osteoathritis (OA) is characterized by degeneration of articular cartilage, subchondral bone, synovial fluid and synovium. Nitric oxide (NO) is proinflammatory cytokine that play a significant role in the pathogenesis of OA via cartilage and bone degradation by synovial inflammation. Green tea is a novel functional food for treating osteoarthritis and inhibiting the production of inflammatory mediators such as nitric oxide. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of green tea extract to the nitric oxide levels and degree of knee joint damage in the rabbit osteoarthitis model. The Freud’s adjuvant complete was performed to induce OA, as many as sixteen male rabbits (New Zealand white) were randomly divided into four groups: adjuvant injection, adjuvant and green tea (injection), adjuvant and green tea (per oral), and control group. The control group only received drinking water, the Freud adjuvant (0.2 ml) and green tea extract (200 mg/kg bw) were orally and injection administered for eight weeks. The articular cartilage damage was evaluated histologically according to MANKIN score. NO levels were determined by nitric oxide assay. Data was analysed by Chi square test. The result of this study showed the surface structure damage of cartilage increased after adjuvant-induced. Green tea extract decrease significantly (p=0.02) the degree of knee joint damage after adjuvant-induced in rabbit osteoarthritis models. NO levels increased after OA induction. The green tea extract administration (via injection) can significantly (p = 0.038) decrease NO levels compare to adjuvant group. Green tea extract decrease the knee joint damage and NO proinflamantory levels in rabbit of osteoarthritis model

Abstract

Kanker merupakan pertumbuhan sel yang tidak normal yang mana sel tersebut dapat tumbuh dan menyebar pada bagian tubuh lainnya bahkan dapat menyebabkan kematian. Cisplatin sebagai pengobatannya memiliki efek samping terhadap organ lain. Sehingga madu digunakan untuk meminimalisir efek samping dari cisplatin. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian eksperimental dengan desain posttest-only control group dengan menggunakan tikus putih galur wistar jantan yang dibagi menjadi 5 kelompok. Sampel penelitian akan diinduksikan sel HSC-3 lalu diberikan dua dosis fermentasi madu (5% dan 10%) dan diamati selama 10 hari. Setelah itu diinduksikan cisplatin. Analisis data dilakukan menggunakan uji one way ANOVA dan uji Kruskal-Wallis. Hasil penelitian pada skoring kerusakan sel terdapat perbaikan pada kelompok 5 dengan pemberian fermentasi madu 10% dengan gambaran sel histologi pankreas adanya nekrosis dan degenerasi minim. Serta untuk luas pulau langerhans kelompok yang diberikan fermentasi madu 10% memiliki luas yang paling mirip dengan kelompok normal. Dari hasil penelitian dapat disimpulkan bahwa fermentasi madu 10% efektif untuk memperbaiki jaringan pankreas. Dalam pandangan Islam, wajib hukumnya untuk menjaga kesehatan. Fermentasi madu sebagai obat alami yang dituliskan dalam Surah An-Nahl dapat digunakan untuk meminimalisir efek samping dari penggunaan cisplatin.
