Abstract

Gynura  procumbens  is  widely  used  as  traditional  remedy  in  South-East  Asia.  Gynura procumbens exhibites anti inflammatory, antioxidant, and reduced blood pressure activity. The aim of this study was to determine chromatographic profile of ethyl acetate fraction of  Gynura procumbens (FEG) and to investigate its cytotoxic properties and selectivity to colon cancerand breast cancer cancer cells. The chromatographic profile of FEG was determined using HPTLC densitometric  and  HPLC.  MTT  (3-(4,5-dimethyl-thiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium  bromide) assay was performed to determine the growth inhibitory effect of FEG on the growth of WiDr, MCF-7, and T47D cells. NIH3T3, a normal cells was used to determine the selectivity of FEG, which  contained  small  amount  of  quercetin  as  identified  from  chromatographic  profile  both HPTLC  and  HPLC.  FEG  inhibited  cell  growth  of  WiDr,  of  MCF-7  and  of  T47D  cells  in  time dependent manner. Quercetin affected cell growth inhibition approximately two fold higher at WiDr and MCF-7, whereas FEG had lower effect on T47D cell. Quercetin did not seem as the main  active  compound  of  FEG.  At  this  study,  FEG  caused  less  inhibition  on  the  growth  of NIH3T3 cells than that of on all cell lines. Selectivity index (SI) of FEG on WiDr, MCF-7 and T47D were 4.97, 2.77 and 7.79 respectively. According to the datas obtained, FEG possesses moderate to high cytotoxicity properties on WiDr, MCF-7 and T47D cells. FEG demonstrates selective  effect  against  cancer  cells  and  reveals  prospective  properties  as  cancer chemoprevention agent.Keywords: Gynura procumbens, colon cancer, breast cancer, cytotoxicity, selectivity

Abstract

The long-term exposure of doxorubicin (Dox) causes enhancement in MDR1 expression that leads tobreast cancer cell resistance. This protein become a serious problem in cancer treatment and also well-knownas negative prognostic factor in breast cancer malignancies. The new approach using natural chemopreventivesubstance was developed to inhibit this resistance progress. This study was aimed to investigate whether ethylacetate fraction of Gynura procumnens (FEG) can prevent chemoresistance through suppressing the MDR1 proteinexpression. MCF-7 cell was used as chemoresistance cell model. The MCF-7 cells were maintained with 100nM Dox-contained medium for five weeks. The chemoprevention effect of FEG was investigated by treatedMCF-7/Dox with sub-toxic concentration of FEG. The cytotoxic properties of MCF-7 cells were determinedusing MTT (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazolium bromide) assay. Immunofluorescenceand western blotting analysis was performed to detect the MDR1 expression. MCF-7/Dox cells need higherconcentration for inhibiting cell growth, were compared with MCF-7, shown by IC50value. The MDR1 proteinlevel elevated after Dox exposure in time dependent manner. The FEG treatment decreased MDR-1 proteinlevel with dose dependent manner. FEG in combination with DOX potentiates the DOX effect on breast cancercell growth inhibition. The FEG prevents the chemoresistance development in breast cancer cell line, MCF-7induced by Dox through inhibiting MDR1 expression. The additional of FEG enhances Dox effect on cell deathinduction. Thus, FEG could be developed as co-chemotherapy agent for reverse multidrug resistance

Abstract

Apple contains high concentration of phenolic compounds that protect cells from oxidative stress. The prolong exposure of free radicals may induce cell damage and premature cell aging. Both local and imported apple contain flavonoid, saponin, tannin, steroid, and terpenoid. The extract of local and imported apples showed low toxicity on NIH3T3 fibroblast cells, with IC50 value of 529 and 463 µg/mL, respectively. Both apple extracts (50 – 250 µg /mL) protected three-day-H2O2 induced-cell damage and cell death. Protective effect was observed as the viability increase of treated cells compared to untreated ones. The protective effect of both extracts were higher than the effect of vitamin C as standard antioxidant at this study. Both apple extracts could reverse cell damage caused by three-hour-high concentration H2O2 exposure, similar with vitamin C. Low concentration of both extracts (50 µg /mL) induced the increase of fibroblast cells’ proliferation kinetics. The extract of imported apple showed higher properties of protective, cell recovery and proliferation of fibroblast cells tha local apple, but not statistically significance. This study concludes that the extract of local and imported apples have high potency in cytoprotective effect and cell recovery of damaged cells caused by free radicals induction. Both apple extracts have high potency to be developed the candidate of antiaging and cells’ regeneration agent.Keywords : antiaging, cell recovery, cytoprotective, NIH3T3 cells

Abstract

Penderita diabetes melitus terus semakin meningkat seiring dengan pola hidup yang tidak seimbang. Diabetes melitus merupakan penyakit metabolik yang ditandai dengan peningkatan kadar gula darah di atas normal. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menguji efek ekstrak etanol daun adam hawa (Rhoeo discolor) dan daun pucuk merah (Syzygium campanulatum Korth.) terhadap penurunan kadar gula darah pada tikus putih jantan galur wistar yang dibebankan glukosa. Pada penelitian ini tikus jantan galur wistar dibagi menjadi 5 kelompok yaitu kontrol normal, kontrol positif (glibenklamida 0,6 mg/kg bb), kontrol negatif (CMC-Na), tiga kelompok ekstrak etanol daun adam hawa (dosis 100, 200, dan 400 mg/kg bb) dan tiga kelompok ekstrak etanol daun pucuk merah (dosis 300, 600, dan 1200 mg/kg bb. Data diperoleh dengan mengukur kadar gula darah tikus 30 menit setelah pemberian glukosa dan pada menit ke-30, 60, 90, dan 120 setelah perlakuan. Hasil uji penelusuran kandungan senyawa kimia menggunakan Kromatografi Lapis Lipis (KLT) dan pereaksi semprot menunjukkan adanya golongan senyawa flavonoid, alkaloid, dan terpenoid pada ekstrak daun adam hawa, sedangkan ekstrak etanol daun pucuk merah hanya mengandung flavonoid dan terpenoid. Hasil uji statistika menggunakan Anova dengan taraf kepercayaan 95% dan dilanjutkan dengan uji Post Hoc LSD menunjukkan bahwa tidak ada perbedaan yang bermakna antara ekstrak daun adam hawa (dosis 200 dan 400 mg/kg bb) dan ekstrak daun pucuk merah (300 dan 600 mg/kg bb) dengan glibenklamida (0,6 mg/kg bb) dalam aktivitasnya untuk menurunkan kadar glukosa darah tikus. Dosis rendah (100 mg/kg bb) pada adam hawa dan dosis tinggi pada pucuk merah (1200 mg/kg bb) tidak menunjukkan efek hipoglikemik pada tikus. Ekstrak adam hawa dan pucuk merah diduga mempunyai aktivitas antidiabetik yang tergantung dosis (dose dependent). Patients with diabetes mellitus are increasing with the behavior of an unbalanced life. Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disease characterized by hyperglycemic. This study aims to evaluate the effect of adam hawa (Rhoeo discolor) and pucuk merah (Syzygium campanulatum Korth.) ethanolic leaves extract to decrease blood sugar levels on male wistar rats induced by glucose. Rats were divided into 5 groups: the normal control group, positive control group (glibenclamide 0.6 mg/kg), negative control group (CMC-Na), ethanolic extract of adam hawa group with doses of 100, 200, and 400 mg/kg bw and ethanolic extract pucuk merah group with doses of 300, 600, and 1200 mg/kg bw. Blood glucose levels were measured 30 minutes before and 30, 60, 120 minutes after per oral glucose induction. The results of phytochemical screening using Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) shown ethanolic extract of adam hawa contained alkaloids, flavonoids, and triterpenoid, while ethanolic extract of pucuk merah only contained flavonoids and terpenoids. Glucose blood levels and AUC datas were statistically analyzed using Oneway Anova and continued with LSD. The datas shown no significant difference between the ethanolic extract of adam hawa (200 and 400 mg/kg bw) and pucuk merah (300 and 600 mg/kg bw) compared with that of glibenclamide (0.6 mg/kg bw) (p>0.05). The ethanolic extract of adam hawa at lower dose (100 mg/kg bw) and pucuk merah at higher dose (1200 mg/kg bw) did not exhibit hipoglicemic effect on rats. Both extracts seems to have antidiabetic properties with dose dependent manner.

Abstract

Estrogen receptor beta (ERβ) is an isoform of estrogen receptor that plays a role in breast cancer. An E3 ubiquitin ligase, murine double minute 2 (MDM2), can bind to ERβ and degrade it. Virtual screening and protein-protein docking studies are one of the approaches that can be performed to discover FDA-approved drugs targeting the interaction of the ERβ-MDM2 complex. This study aimed to conduct virtual screening of 1615 compounds targeting the interaction between ERβ-MDM2 as an initial study to discover potential breast cancer drugs. Biovia Discovery Studio 2021, ClusPro 2.0, PyRx 8.0, and PyMOL software were utilized in this study. ERβ (PDB ID: 3OLS) and MDM2 (PDB ID: 1T4E) receptors were docked to obtain the ERβ-MDM2 protein complex. The ligands used in the virtual screening were FDA-approved drugs downloaded from the ZINC database. PIC and PLIP web tools were also utilized to analyze the amino acid residues involved in the interaction. The virtual screening results showed that ergotamine was the drug with the lowest energy score (-12.0 kcal/mol) among 1057 drugs and was able to establish the strongest interaction between ERβ-MDM2. In conclusion, based on this computational study, ergotamine strengthens the interaction between ERβ-MDM2 and thus could be used as a candidate for breast cancer drug. Thorough validation of in vitro, biochemical, and in vivo studies are needed to confirm this finding.Keywords: Estrogen receptor beta, breast cancer, protein-protein interaction, MDM2.

Abstract

Doxorubicin (DOX) is chemotherapy for breast and cervical cancer with serious side effects. Ketapang (Terminalia cattapa) is a potential plant as a co-chemotherapy agent. The purpose of this research was to examine the sensitivity of DOX as a cytotoxicity drug in combination with ethanolic extracts of ketapang leaves (EKL) against T47D and HeLa cancer cells. Cytotoxicity was determined using the MTT assay, with DOX concentration series (0.625-40 nM for T47D and 0.5-6 M for HeLa) and EKL (50-1000 mg/mL) used in combination with the study. DOX and EKL combination assays utilizing their respective IC50 values were performed in T47D cells and HeLa cells, and the results were used to calculate the Combination Index (CI). Furthermore, the doubling time method was used to investigate the combination of DOX and EKL proliferation inhibition on both cell lines. DOX and EKL had IC50 values of 158 nM and 30 mg/mL for T47D, respectively, and 3.4 M and 640 mg/mL for HeLa cell growth. While DOX and EKL have a synergistic effect on T47D cells, their combined effect on HeLa cells is cytotoxic and dose-dependent. EKL increases the inhibitory effect of DOX on the proliferation of T47D and HeLa cancer cells. In T47D cells, the combination of DOX and EKL has a higher potential for cytotoxic and antiproliferative activity than in HeLa cells

Abstract

Neonates are particularly susceptible to infections caused by exposure to microorganisms during labor or shortly after birth. Some neonates require treatment in the NICU and perinatal rooms because of cases of infection that require antibiotics as therapy. This study aimed to determine the pattern of antimicrobial administration, antimicrobial rationality, and its relationship to clinical outcomes. This study used a cross-sectional design with prospective data collection using the medical record of neonates in the NICU and Perinatal rooms at RSUD Banjarnegara during November 2020-January 2021. The samples in this study were all neonatal patients who received antibiotics. Evaluation of antibiotics use was carried out using the Gyssens method. Descriptive analysis was conducted to determine the description of the research sample and the antibiotics used. A total of 131 samples had normal birth weight characteristics of 71%. The single antibiotic most frequently used as amoxicillin (21 patients), and the combination antibiotic was ampicillin+gentamicin (106 patients). The results of the evaluation using the Gyssens method showed that patients received 265 antibiotics, 85.55% were in category 0, 8.75% in category IIa, 3.8% in category IIIb, and 1.9% in category IIb. Of the 131 neonates treated, 124 patients were declared improved and 7 others died. The correlation between antibiotic rationality and clinical outcomes was analyzed by Chi-square, the result of the Asymp value. Sig (2-sided) 0.138 which means there is no relationship between the two. The rationality and effectiveness of clinical outcomes of antibiotics used during the study were considered good because the number of patients who were discharged with improved conditions was much greater than those who died.
