Abstract

Diabetes mellitus is one of the four priority non-infectious diseases in the world. Plant-based medicine is an alternative treatment with few side effects. Star fruit (Averrhoa bilimbi L.) and bitter melon (Momordica charantia L.) are plants that have anti-hyperglycemic activity. Hyperglycemia produces Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) that make the β-cells of the pancreas necrosis that decreasing insulin synthesis. The anti-inflammatory activity appears based on the relative levels of CD4+ and CD25+, which are TGF-β-producing regulatory T cells where TGF-β is a mediator that acts as an immunosuppressant. TGF-β would induce CD4 + T lymphocytes into T reg. The purpose of this study is to determine the profile of TGF-β on CD4+ and CD25+ spleenocytes on hyperglycemia mice after ABMC (Averrhoa bilimbi Momordica charantia mix) treatment. Mice were divided into 5 groups, non-diabetic (N), hyperglycemia (H), hyperglycemia with extract doses of 10 mg.kg-1 BW (P1), 40 mg.kg-1 BW (P2), and 160 mg.kg-1 BW (P3). Diabetic mice were obtained after a single injection dose of 145 mg.kg-1 BW streptozotocin (STZ). The result showed that ABMC can reduce blood sugar levels faster and able reduce the number of CD4+TGF-β+ cells in hyperglycemia mice. Keywords: Averrhoa bilimbi L., CD4+TGF-β+, CD25+TGF-β+, hyperglycemia, Momordica charantia L.

Abstract

HCC is difficult to treat due to its complex tumor microenvironment and the ineffectiveness of available therapies. Gas-based anticancer approaches are promising, but are hampered by instability and difficulties in targeted delivery. HHOnbs (containing hydrogen (H2), oxygen (O2), and low-dose hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) at the nanoscale) have been proposed to improve the stability and precision of gas-based therapies. This study aimed to investigate the effects of HHOnbs on the immunoregulatory marker FoxP3 and the proliferation marker Ki-67 in a Wistar rat model of HCC induced by diethylnitrosamine (DEN)/carbon tetrachloride (CCl4). The design used was a true experimental design. HHOnbs were administered intravenously. Liver tissue was assessed using immunohistochemistry to measure FoxP3 and Ki-67 expression. HHOnbs treatment significantly reduced FoxP3 and Ki-67 expression (p<0.05). FoxP3 is a marker of regulatory T cells (Tregs), which often inhibit antitumor immune responses. Its decrease indicates an increased immune response potential. Ki-67 is a marker of cell proliferation. Its decrease indicates the suppression of cancer cell growth. Further investigations are warranted to compare its efficacy with standard therapies, assess different treatment durations, and elucidate the underlying molecular signaling pathways.
