Abstract

Oocyte developmental competence is one of the determining factors that in?uence the outcomes of an IVF cycle regarding the ability of a female gamete to reach maturation and be fertilized. A non-invasive approach using proteomic analysis of oocyte cumulus cells (CCs) can be used as a method to predict oocyte competence and viability that could potentially function as molecular predictors for IVF program prognosis. Our study was aimed at quantifying protein markers (HAS2, PTX3, BCL2 and BAX) that are expressed in human CCs between mature (MII) and immature (MI) oocytes. This research is an analytic observational study. Twelve samples of CCs from mature (MII) and immature (MI) oocytes were collected after ovum pick up from patients undergoing ICSI. CCs samples were isolated using an ultrasonicator and protein expressions were quantified using ELISA method. The Mann-Whitney test was used to compare the protein expressions from CCs between mature and immature oocytes. The results showed HAS2, PTX3 and BCL2 proteins expressions was increase in CCs from mature oocytes but had no significant effect compared to CCs from immature oocytes, however, BAX protein expression was significantly higher (P<0.05) in CCs from immature oocytes which CCs from mature oocytes. This present study shows that BAX proteins could be used as markers for oocyte quality and maturation. Key words: ELISA, maturation, proteins marker, cumulus cells (CCs)

This study found that Leucaena leucocephala leaf ethanol extract has the ability to stimulate the growth of vaginal epithelial cells in ovariectomised rats.2. Leucaena leucocephala leaf extract can be developed as a safe and cost-effective natural alternative for hormone replacement therapy in premenopausal women and livestock.   Abstract Hormone replacement therapy has adverse effects that may cause additional health problems, such as hot flashes, cancer, ischemic stroke, and death. Phytoestrogen is an alternative ingredient used for hormone replacement therapy with less risk. The Leucaena leucocephala (Lam.) de Wit plant is widely used as a medicinal ingredient and animal feed. This study aimed to determine the effect of Leucaena leucocephala leaf extract on the uterine weight and estrous cycle of ovariectomized rats. This research used a completely randomized control design, which included two treatment groups (P1 and P2) and two control groups (negative (K-) and positive (K+)) with six replications in each group (n=24). The negative control (K-) was given 2 mL of corn oil, while K+ received 0.1 mg/kg bw of 17β-estradiol. P1 and P2 were administered 250 and 300 mg/kg bw of Leucaena leucocephala leaf extract, respectively. The extract was administered daily by gavage for 30 days. Estrous cycle data were obtained on day 31 by previously collecting vaginal swabs twice a day for 15 days. After the rats were sacrificed under anesthesia using chloroform, they underwent surgery to remove the uterine organs for weight measurement. The data were analyzed for normality and homogeneity using the Shapiro-Wilk and Levene tests. The data distribution were not normal, so the Kruskal Wallis test was used to test the hypothesis. If there was a difference between controls and treatments, the analysis continued with the Mann-Whitney test (p<0.05). The controls and treatments exhibited a significant difference in the length of each phase and overall estrous cycle. The post hoc Duncan test revealed that the highest uterine weight was found in 17β-estradiol treated rat. It was significantly different with both extracts treated rats. Both extract effect on uterine weight were not significantly difference. In conclusion, administering Leucaena leucocephala leaf extract results in an increased uterine weight and a normal estrous cycle in ovariectomized rats.

Abstract

Phyllanthus niruri L. is a medicinal plant recognized for its wide range of therapeutic benefits, particularly its anti-inflammatory properties. This research focused on assessing the impact of P. niruri leaf extract on pro-inflammatory cytokines in vitro using RAW 264.7 macrophage cells, analyze its phytochemical composition, and validate its potential anti-inflammatory mechanisms through molecular docking studies. The extract was analyzed for its phytochemical composition using LC-MS, revealing the presence of sesquiterpene glycosides, flavonoid glycosides, and tannins among the identified compounds. Cell viability tests showed that the extract was not toxic to the cells at concentrations up to 50 µg/ml. Treatment with the extract significantly reduced the levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines TNF-α and IL-1β in LPS-induced RAW 264.7 cells, with the most effective concentration being 50 µg/ml. Molecular docking studies further supported the anti-inflammatory potential of the extract by demonstrating its ability to inhibit COX-2 and TNF-alpha. These findings suggest that P. niruri leaf extract has promising anti-inflammatory properties and needs further investigation as a potential treatment for inflammatory diseases. The in silico study provided insights into the molecular interactions between the extract's compounds and inflammatory targets, supporting its anti-inflammatory mechanism of action.

Tanaman telang (Clitoria ternatea) memiliki aktivitas antioksidan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui aktivitas antioksidan infusa bunga telang terhadap penyempitan diameter lumen trakea dan bronkus tikus diterpapar rokok elektrik. Penelitian ini menggunakan 30 ekor tikus jantan (Rattus novergicus) dengan umur sekitar 2-3 bulan dan berat badan sekitar 150-200 g. Penelitian ini bersifat eksperimental dengan Rancangan Acak Lengkap (RAL) yang dibedakan menjadi 5 kelompok, yaitu K+ (0,6 mL liquid vape), K- (normal), (0,6 ml liquid vapor + 9 mg/200 g BB infusa bunga telang), P2 (0,6 ml liquid vapor + 18 mg/200 g BB infusa bunga telang) dan P3 (0,6 ml liquid vapor + 36 mg/200 g BB infusa bunga telang). Perlakuan diberikan selama 35 hari. Hasil penelitian dianalisis dengan uji Oneway ANOVA dan dilanjutkan dengan uji Duncan. Hasil yang diperoleh menunjukkan bahwa infusa bunga telang terbukti memiliki aktivitas antioksidan dalam mencegah terjadinya penyempitan diameter lumen trakea dan bronkus, dibuktikan dengan hasil analisis statistik yang menunjukkan adanya perbedaan yang nyata (P<0,05). Infusa bunga telang dengan dosis 36/200 mg memberikan pengaruh yang optimal dalam mencegah penyempitan diameter lumen trakea dan bronkus tikus setelah diberi paparan asap rokok elektrik. E-cigarettes were developed to reduce people's addiction to cigarettes. E-cigarettes contain chemicals that are carcinogens. The telang plant (Clitoria ternatea) has antioxidant activity. This study aims to determine the antioxidant activity of telang flower infusa against the narrowing of the diameter of the lumen of the trachea and bronchi of rats exposed to e-cigarettes. This study used 30 male rats (Rattus novergicus) with an age of about 2-3 months and a body weight of about 150-200 g. This research was experimental with a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) which divided into five treatment groups, namely K+ (0.6 mL liquid vape), K- (normal), (0.6 ml liquid vapor + 9 mg/200 g BB infuse butterfly pea flower), P2 (0.6 ml liquid vapor + 18 mg/200 g BB of butterfly pea flower infusion) and P3 (0.6 ml liquid vapor + 36 mg/200 g BB of butterfly pea flower infusion). The treatment is given for 35 days. The result of the study was analyzed with Oneway ANOVA test and continued with Duncan test. The results showed that the lumen diameter in the K+ group was smaller than in the other groups. Butterfly flower infusion was proven to have antioxidant activity in preventing narrowing of the lumen diameter of the trachea and bronchi, as evidenced by the results of statistical analysis which showed a significant difference (P<0.05). Telang flower infusion given at a dose of 36/200 mg provided an optimal effect in preventing the narrowing of the lumen diameter of the trachea and bronchi of rats after being exposed to e-cigarette smoke.
