Abstract

BACKGROUND: World Health Organization has reported four million people die every year due to obesity comorbidity, and the prevalence of obesity is keep increasing, especially after COVID-19. Obesity has been defined as a chronic disease involving adipose tissue dysfunction which leads to metabolic diseases and psychosocial consequences. The review article will highlight some recent researches regarding the new conceptual framework that integrates both metabolic drives, as well as to summarize the numerous discussions about the current understanding of hypothalamic control of food intake and energy homeostasis.CONTENT: Obesity apparently is not simply regulated only by food and exercise. Hypothalamus takes part in controlling energy intake and expenditure via appetite regulation. Hedonic control in cortical and subcortical brain areas process cognitive, reward, information, and executive function. Managing metabolic adaptation, browning the white adipose tissue, and preserving lean mass can be another strategy to safely manage obesity.SUMMARY: Obesity need to be managed in a multimodal strategy including neurophysiology and physiology approach, together with environment support. Thus, a weight regain can be prevented. Commitment from both scientific and regulation point of view can shed a light to eradicate obesity.KEYWORDS: adipocyte, appetite, nutrition, obesity, physical activity, reward, satiety
The Combination of Gardenia jasminoides, Boswellia serrata, Commiphora myrrha, Foeniculum vulgarae, and Daucus carota Essential Oil Blend Improved the Inflammatory and Clinical Status in Respiratory Tract Infection of COVID-19 Patients: A Multicentre, Randomized, Open-label, Controlled Trial Lestari, Keri; Babikian, Haig; Kulsum, Iceu Dimas; Ferdian, Ferdy; Ismail, Efriadi; Sumalim, Yelsen; Setiawan, Setiawan; Santoso, Prayudi; Hartantri, Yovita; Arifin, Arief Riadi; Meiliana, Anna; Sormin, Ida Paulina; Sugiono, Erizal

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Essential oils (EO) are complex volatile, naturally synthesized compounds from aromatic plants. It considers as healthy, effective, and safe since they were coming from nature. Gardenia jasminoides, Boswellia serrata, Commiphora myrrha, Foeniculum vulgarae, and Daucus carota are known to have antimicrobials, antioxidants, antiinflammation properties against respiratory tract infection. However, despite its natural content, a safety profile needs to be observed. Therefore, in this study, EO blend (EOB) made from the combination of these 5 plants was assessed for its efficacy and safety for respiratory tract infection in human.METHODS: A multicentre, randomized, open-label, phase II controlled trial involving 80 hospitalized adults with COVID-19 was conducted. One group of subjects only received standard of care (SoC), while the other group receive SoC and EOB orally for 10 days.RESULTS: There were significant decrease in interleukin (IL)-6 level (p=0.016) and interferon (IFN)-γ level (p=0.012), as well as better respiratory rate (p=0.024) for the group receiving SoC and EOB compared to the group receiving SoC only. However, there was no significant differences in aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), creatinine, and the corrected QT interval (QTc) prolongation value in both groups. All subjects with adverse effects were improved and recovered, and there were no serious adverse events found.CONCLUSION: The combination of G. jasminoides, B. serrata, C. myrrha, F. vulgarae, and D. carota EOB could improve the inflammatory and clinical status and safe to be used as adjuvant therapy for treating COVID-19 in adults.KEYWORDS: essential oils, COVID-19, inflammation, safety

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Fibronectin type III domain-containing protein 5 (FNDC5), or also known as irisin, has been identified for two decades but almost completely disregarded for 10 years. It is present in skeletal muscle, heart, and brain, and in reaction to exercise can transform white adipose tissue into brown. Since then, irisin has gained a lot of attention for its potencies in treating metabolic disorders. In this review article, the potential future of irisin especially on metabolism and aging process will be discussed.CONTENT: Sedentary lifestyle is acknowledged as risk factor for type 2 diabetes mellitus, obesity, immune system issues, asthma, and neurological or heart illness. Irisin is secreted by muscle cells when exercising, produced after the proteolytic cleavage of FNDC5 protein. Irisin has positive impacts on maintaining physiological balance including reducing inflammation, keeping the bone homeostasis, as well as influencing metabolic processes and the neurological system function. Due to these many and advantageous characteristics, irisin could be a possible choice for preventing and managing disorders associated with modern society, and finding the agents to increase irisin can be beneficial.SUMMARY: Irisin offers a fresh potential basis for kinesitherapy and shows promise as a therapeutic target due to its various biological activities. Irisin pathway can be activated through dietary changes, the use of natural substances and drugs and can interact with this signalling pathway which involved peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ coactivator 1α (PGC-1α) and uncoupling protein mRNA 1 (UCP1) to resolve obesity and its metabolic comorbidities.KEYWORDS: irisin, FNDC5, exercise, inflammation, obesity, nervous system

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Age contributes to body composition alteration, rises a common disorder in elderly known as sarcopenic obesity (SO), which is characterized by the combination of obesity (excess fat mass) and sarcopenia (reduced skeletal muscle mass) clinical form and function.CONTENT: The primary cause of SO is insulin resistance. Glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4) dysfunction results in impaired fatty acids oxidation. Decreased muscle mass results in lower mitochondria number and volume. Both will increase oxidative stress. Together with altered myokines in SO, oxidative stress was promoted and lead to higher M1 macrophages and failure in autophagy. The pro-inflammatory condition and dysbiosis links SO to a variety of cardiometabolic conditions, including non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular disease. The mortality, comorbidities, cardiometabolic diseases, and disability or impairment of SO is higher compare to obesity or sarcopenia alone. Some treatments have been developed for SO including adequate dietary intake, vitamin D and antioxidant supplementation, and exercises.SUMMARY: SO is more prevalent among the elderly and has a significant negative impact on their quality of life. Therefore, maintaining muscle mass and strength as well as preventing obesity should be the key goals of initiatives to support healthy aging.KEYWORDS: aging, body composition, obesity, sarcopenia, skeletal muscle, metabolic syndrome
