Abstract

The prevalence of prostate cancer cases in men is expected to continue increase. In 2040, it is estimated that there will be 2.293.818 new cases and a 1.05% increase in the death rate due to prostate cancer. Eurycoma longifolia Jack roots extract (ELE) has potential as an alternative treatment. This study aims to analyze ELE potential as an anti-prostate cancer agent through in silico assay and in vitro assays on the prostate cancer cell line (PC-3). ELE compounds were docked against Casp-3, Casp-8, HAX-1, p27, and PTEN. In vitro assays on PC-3 cells were used, namely cell viability (WST-8), ROS levels; cell cycle; and cell apoptosis (flow cytometry), PC-3 cell senescence (μ-Galactosidase staining), Casp-3; Casp-8; HAX-1; p27; and PTEN gene expression (qRT-PCR). All proteins target were successfully docked with ELE compounds and presented binding interactions. ELE is known to reduce viability, intracellular ROS levels, live cells, necrosis, and reduce HAX-1 gene expression, and inhibit the cell cycle G0/G1 phase. ELE can also increase inhibition, senescence, late and early apoptosis, and Casp-3, Casp-8, p27, and PTEN gene expression. ELE 100 μg/mL is the most effective concentration. ELE has potential as an anti-prostate cancer agent through apoptosis, cell cycle, and antioxidant pathways

Abstract

Wound healing often requires specialized interventions to accelerate recovery due to prolonged inflammation and limited regenerative factors. Umbilical Cord Mesenchymal Stem Cells secretome (UCMSCs) comprises various cytokines and growth factors that can promote wound healing. This study aims to analyze the potential of a secretome-based hydrogel as a wound-healing agent using BJ fibroblast cells induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and scratch injury as an inflammation model. The secretome hydrogel was formulated using Carbopol, Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose (HPMC), Hydroxyethyl Cellulose (HEC), and secretome. Cytotoxicity was conducted using the WST-8 assay, while cell migration was evaluated through a scratch assay. Tumor Necrosis Factor-???? (TNF-????), Nuclear Factor kappa-B (NF-????B), and Interleukin-8 (IL-8) gene expression were analyzed via qRT-PCR. Additionally, malondialdehyde (MDA) levels were measured for oxidative stress assessment, whereas Connective Tissue Growth Factor (CTGF) and Transforming Growth Factor-????1 (TGF-????1) levels were quantified using ELISA and colorimetric assays. The secretome hydrogel exhibited no cytotoxic effects on BJ fibroblast cells and significantly enhanced cell migration. Moreover, it reduced the TNF-????, IL-8, and NF-????B expression, indicating anti-inflammatory activity. The hydrogel also decreased MDA levels while increasing TGF-β1 and CTGF expression, suggesting antioxidant properties and enhanced tissue regeneration in the inflammatory model. The secretome-based hydrogel presents a promising therapeutic approach for promoting chronic wound healing by modulating inflammation, reducing oxidative stress, enhancing tissue regeneration, and stimulating fibroblast migration.
