Abstract

Indonesia presently has the fourth largest diabetic mellitus prevalence of all countries in the world. In a previous study, a mixture extract of Piper crocatum leaves and Cinnamomum burmannii bark showed in vitro antihyperglycemic activity. It acted as inhibitor of the a-glucosidase enzyme and had no toxic effect when it was administered orally to male and female rats for 28 days. In the present study, mixture extracts of P. crocatum leaves and C. burmannii bark were used to observe antihyperglycemic activity in diabetic rats induced with streptozotocin. Mixture extracts of P. crocatum leaves and C. burmannii bark were orally given to diabetic Sprague Dawley rats at various doses for 16 days. The results showed that the treatment led to a reduction of the blood glucose level, an increase in blood insulin level up to 170.75% at 1260 mg/kg body weight, maintaining the blood lipid level of the diabetic rats at a normal level, and an increase of pancreatic ß cells in the islets of Langerhans up to 2.2-fold at 1260 mg/kg body weight. The mixture extracts of P. crocatum and C. burmannii have antihyperglycemic activity, which enhances the number of pancreatic β cells.

Abstract

Damage to cells caused by stress can be reduced by the presence of antioxidants, one of which is Superoxide dismutase (SOD). The role of the active ingredients of black tea and turmeric will be studied using the in-silico method to identify the active compounds as components in SOD activation. The bioavailability and toxicity of the active compounds of black tea and turmeric were studied and followed by molecular docking and virtual games. The parameters studied are Gibbs's free energy (∆G) and binding site similarity (BSS). The results were analyzed using Gibbs's free energy (∆G) and binding site similarity (BSS) parameters. It was found that those that could increase the activity of Cu/Zn SOD enzymes were Epicatechin gallate (black tea) and curcumin (turmeric), with values ​​of -9.5 and -7.4 Kcal/mol and the same BSS value of 81.8%. The control ligand used was beta amyrin. According to Lipinski's rules, Epicatechin gallate and curcumin compounds can be absorbed well and are safe for consumption. This study concludes that Epicatechin gallate, an active compound of black tea, and curcumin, an active compound of turmeric rhizome, have the best potential to increase the activity of Cu/Zn SOD enzymes based on the results of virtual screening and molecular docking. Epicatechin gallate and curcumin are predicted to be well absorbed by the body because they qualify Lipinski's rules and are not toxic and safe for consumption.
