Abstract

Atherosclerosis is a chronic arterial disease and the leading cause of vascular death. Paclitaxel has long been recognized as an anticancer agent, but recent studies have shown that paclitaxel can also potentially reduce the progression of atherosclerosis. The aim of this study was to explore the molecular mechanism of paclitaxel as an atherosclerosis therapy using in silico study. Pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic analyses of paclitaxel were conducted using SwissADME, ProTox v3.0, and SCFbio websites. Cytoscape software was used to construct a network of protein-protein interactions, and the key proteins involved in paclitaxel-related atherosclerosis were identified, including AKT serine/threonine kinase 1 (AKT1), Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), and Endothelin 1 (ET1). These key proteins were then subjected to molecular docking and molecular dynamic simulation using MOE and Yasara applications. Pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic analyses revealed that paclitaxel has good distribution, metabolism, and excretion properties. However, paclitaxel has shortcomings in absorption, toxicity, and water solubility. According to the results of molecular docking, paclitaxel showed consistent results as the most potential inhibitor of AKT1 (-9.59 kcal/mol), ET1 (-9.16 kcal/mol), JNK (-8.72 kcal/mol) when compared to the control ligands. Molecular dynamics simulations also confirmed the interaction stability between paclitaxel with AKT1, ET1, and JNK, with paclitaxel-AKT1 demonstrating the highest conformational stability (Carbon-α Root Mean Square Deviation <3.0 Å). Even though our in-silico results are promising, more experimental studies are required to confirm the efficacy of paclitaxel as an atherosclerosis therapy.

Abstract

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an infectious respiratory disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). To reveal the risk factors for olfactory dysfunction in employees with COVID-19 in the workplace of the subject hospital in Indonesia. This study was quantitative and descriptive, using data from questionnaires distributed to subject hospital in Indonesia employees who have experienced COVID-19. This study shows that anosmia (33.2%) is the most common olfactory dysfunction in COVID-19. COVID-19 infection often occurs in resident doctors (58.1%); women (55.6%); those aged 55 years (92.3%); those with comorbidities such as hypertension (4.3%) and obesity (65%); nonsmokers (91.5%) and smokers 10–20 cigarettes per day (5.1%); and nondrinkers (100%). Anosmia is the most common olfactory dysfunction in COVID-19. It is commonly experienced by resident doctors, women aged ≥55 years, employees without comorbidities, obese employees, nonsmokers, and nondrinker

Abstract

Dried sheet amnion has long been used as a wound treatment that provides better results than standard general care. In addition to dried amnion sheet, dry powdered amnion preparations have begun to be used for wound care. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of dry powdered amnion compared to dried amnion sheets in wound healing, and to compare both treatments with standard acute wound care. Sixty-three healthy Wistar rats were randomly divided into three groups: dried amnion sheet treatment group, dry powdered amnion treatment group, and standard wet wound care control group. The research procedure began with the administration of anesthesia using penthotal at a dose of 10mg/kgBW intramuscularly. The backs of the rats were shaved and a 2x1cm wound was designed using a GOAL razor blade after disinfection with 10% betadine solution and 1:30 savlon. Wounds were made on the backs of the rats, and treatments were given according to the group. The wound area was evaluated at time points 6 hours after treatment, day 2 and day 5. Statistical analysis was performed to compare the effectiveness of the treatments. Both treatments with dry powdered amnion and dried amnion sheets significantly reduced the wound area compared to the control group. However, treatment with dried amnion sheets showed higher efficacy in reducing wound area compared to treatment with dry powdered amnion. Statistical analysis confirmed significant differences in wound area reduction between groups. Dry powdered amnion and dried amnion sheets were effective in reducing wound area compared to standard wet wound care. Treatment with dried amnion sheets showed greater efficacy than treatment with dry powdered amnion.
