Abstract

The aim of this research was to investigate the therapeutic effects of Kencur (Kaempferia galanga L.) extract on kidney histopathological damage in male mice exposed to cigarette smoke. Twenty 8-week-old male mice were randomly divided into five treatment groups (n=5). The negative control group (C-) consisted of mice not given kencur extract or exposed to cigarette smoke, while the positive control group (C+) comprised mice exposed to cigarette smoke without kencur extract. Treatment groups included Treatment 1 (T1) administered 150 mg/kg BW of kencur extract, Treatment 2 (T2) administered 300 mg/kg BW, and Treatment 3 (T3) administered 600 mg/kg BW. Mice were exposed to cigarette smoke for 14 days. The data were analyzed using the Kruskal-Wallis test to evaluate overall differences among the treatment groups. Where significant differences were found (p<0.05), further pairwise comparisons were conducted using the Mann-Whitney test, confirming statistically significant differences between specific treatment groups.  Treatment 3 (T3) was found to be the most effective in reducing histopathological damage in the kidneys of male mice. This study demonstrates that kencur extract effectively reduces histopathological damage in the kidneys of mice exposed to cigarette smoke, highlighting its potential as a protective agent against smoke-induced tissue injury.

Abstract

The current report describes acute death in 8.5 months pregnant cow, which no signs of illness before. Postmortem examination showed the presence of gastric bloat. Necropsy revealed no change in the viscera, but yellow and cloudy nodules were found on the endometrial wall, amniotic fluid mixed with blood, blood clots in the inner cervical canal, pneumonia in the lungs. Meanwhile, the anatomical condition of the fetus was normal. It could be concluded that the cow's sudden death was due to late pregnancy, causing high tension that triggers rupturing of the polyp blood vessels. The deep vein thrombosis due to late pregnancy causes pulmonary emboli and subsequent pneumonia.

Abstract

Background: Cigarettes are tobacco products processed with or without additives and are known to contain addictive substances that pose serious health risks to individuals and the public. Inhaled cigarette smoke directly stimulates the activation of macrophage cells in the respiratory tract. Among the affected cells, type II alveolar cells which produce pulmonary surfactant to reduce alveolar surface tension are particularly vulnerable to smoke-induced damage. Purpose:  This study aimed to compare the effects of conventional cigarette smoke and e-cigarette vapor exposure on the number of alveolar macrophages and type II alveolar cells in male mice (Mus musculus). Method: A total of 28 male mice were randomly divided into seven groups. The control group (C) was exposed to ambient air only. Groups A1, A2, and A3 were exposed to 1, 2, and 3 conventional cigarettes per day, respectively, while groups B1, B2, and B3 were exposed to 0.7 mL, 1.3 mL, and 2 mL of e-liquid vapor per day, respectively. All exposures were conducted for 36 consecutive days. Results: A significant difference (p<0.05) was observed in the number of alveolar macrophages among groups C, A1, A2 , A3 , B2 , and B3 , whereas no significant difference was found between A1 and B1. The number of type II alveolar cells significantly differed (p < 0.05) across all groups: C, A1, A2, A3, B1, B2, and B3. Conclusion: Both conventional cigarette smoke and e-cigarette vapor increase alveolar macrophage counts and reduce type II alveolar cell numbers compared to controls. Although both exposures pose health risks, e-cigarette vapor appears to cause milder pulmonary effects than conventional cigarette smoke.
