Abstract

BACKGROUND: ALDH1A1 and ALDH1A3, the most renowned isozymes of aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH)1, are important in regulating the pluripotency of human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and cancer stem cells (CSCs). The study aimed to analyze the mRNA expression of ALDH1A1 and ALDH1A3 genes in adipose stem cells (ASCs) and umbilical cord stem cells (UCSCs) along with their correlations to Oct-4 mRNA expression. Additionally, the interaction between these proteins was also investigated using in silico study to confirm the pluripotency of both MSCs compared to human breast ALDH+ CSCs.METHODS: This research focused on determining mRNA levels of ALDH1A1, ALDH1A3 and Oct-4 in ASCs and UCSCs using one-step qRT-PCR. The data were then normalized to those in human breast CSCs and 18S rRNA. Oct-4 gene expression was also analyzed to determine the pluripotency of ASCs and UCSCs. The protein-protein interactions were in silico analyzed using String 9.1 software.RESULTS: Relatively, ALDH1A3 was expressed at similar level in ASCs and UCSCs, while ALDH1A1 expression level was significantly higher in ASCs compared to UCSCs. In contrast to ALDH1A3, the expressions of ALDH1A1 in both MSCs were significantly lower than breast CSCs similar to Oct-4 expressions, as also revealed by the in silico data showing the interaction between these proteins. This suggests the role of ALDH1A1 on pluripotency.CONCLUSION: ALDH1A1 and ALDH1A3 were distinctly expressed in UCSCs and ASCs, which might be associated with unique properties of ASCs and UCSCs. This study may contribute to further research in terms of implication of ALDH1A1 and ALDH1A3 expressions towards the properties of MSCs and its application in stem cell therapy.KEYWORDS: ALDH1A1, ALDH1A3, UCSC, ASC, breast ALDH+ CSC, Oct-4

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is a human malignant brain tumor which is arise from glial cells. Our previous study proved that GBM cells proliferation increased after treating by conditioned medium of umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells (CM-UCSCs). Cells proliferation is probably mediated by tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α which could bind to membrane receptor and induce signaling pathway. Therefore, this research was intended to analyze the mRNA expression of TNF-α signaling pathway molecules on CM-treated GBM cells by measuring TNF receptor 1 and 2 (TNFR1 and TNFR2), TNFR associated factor 2 (TRAF2), nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) mRNA level, and TNFR2 protein level.METHODS: UCSCs and human glioblastoma T98G cells were cultured and harvested after 80% confluence. CM was prepared by growing UCSCs in serum alpha Minimum Essential Media (α-MEM) for 24 hours. Fifty percent concentration of CM-UCSCs was used to treat T98G cells for 24 hours. TNF-α level in CM-UCSC was detected using enzyme linked-immunosorbent assay (ELISA), while the expression of TNFR1, TNFR2, TRAF2 and NF-κB were detected using quantitative Reverse Transcriptase Polymerase Chain Reaction (qRT-PCR), and TNFR2 protein level was detected using sandwich ELISA.RESULTS: TNF-α level was detected in CM-UCSCs 4.4 pg/mL. Moreover, the expression of TNFR1, TNFR2, TRAF2 and NF-κB were significantly 1.4-fold, 4.9-fold, 5.6-fold, 1.8-fold respectively higher in T98G treated cells than control. TNFR2 protein level in T98G treated cells was 11.57 pg/mg protein higher than control.CONCLUSION: The expression of molecules involved in TNF-α signaling pathway were up regulated in T98G cells treated by CM-UCSCs.KEYWORDS: CM-UCSCs, TNFR1, TNFR2, TRAF2, NF-κB, T98G cells

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Cancer-associated fibroblast (CAF) is the most abundant tumor stroma. Our previous study has demonstrated that the secretomes of CAF isolated from colorectal carcinoma (CRC) patients could induce epithelial-mesenchymal transition in the HT-29 CRC cell line. However, the role of CAF secretomes in CRC stemness is needed to be further investigated. Therefore, the present study aimed to investigate the effect of CAF secretomes from CRC patients on the expression of stemness markers in HT-29 CRC cells in comparison with the secretomes from normal fibroblasts.METHODS: Fibroblasts were isolated from tumor (CAF) and their counterpart non-tumor (NF) areas of three CRC patients undergone surgical resection. Normal preputium fibroblasts (PF) were isolated during circumcision of three healthy boys aged 8 years. All fibroblasts were grown in free-serum culture medium for 24 hours to collect 50% (v/v) conditioned medium (CM). Then, CM was supplemented to HT-29 CRC cells for 72 hours. The effects of CAF- and NF-CM on the mRNA expression of CD44, CD133, OCT4, and ALDH1A1 were analysed using qRT-PCR. Cells proliferation was measured using the trypan blue exclusion assay.RESULTS: Supplementation of CAF-CM (50% v/v) significantly increased CD44, CD133, OCT4, and ALDH1A1 mRNA expressions compared to that of NF-CM and control without supplementation but had no effect on the proliferation of HT-29 cells.CONCLUSION: CAF secretomes from CRC patients upregulate the expression of CRC stemness.KEYWORDS: cancer-associated fibroblasts, ALDH1A1, OCT4, CD44, CD133, colorectal carcinoma

Abstract

Background: In some people, acetaldehyde, a toxic product from ethanol oxidation, cannot be oxidized to acetate. The excess of acetaldehyde could cause facial flushing, dizziness, and hypertension when they consume ethanol. This ethanol sensitivity is caused by a deficiency of ALDH2. Objective: This study aims to analyze and count the polymorphism frequency of the ALDH2 gene in Indonesia’s Minang ethnic. Methods: DNA samples were taken randomly from hair bulbous of 60 subjects (male and female, 3rd generation). A nested polymerase chain reaction was conducted to amplify the ALDH2 in the samples. Afterward, restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) was conducted to the amplicons using the EcoRI restriction enzyme. The measured parameters were the distribution of the wildtype, atypical homozygote, and heterozygote. Results: Results showed that out of 60 subjects, 53.33% have an atypical homozygote gene (subjects prone to hypersensitive to alcohol), 28.33% have a heterozygote gene, and 18.33% have a wildtype gene. The frequency of the atypical alleles in Minang ethnic is 0.675. Conclusion: The atypical ALDH2 allele was much higher than the normal ALDH2 allele, in which most participants have atypical homozygote ALDH2, suggesting the samples are sensitive to alcohol.

Abstract

Background: High altitude can cause hypobaric hypoxia (HH), resulted from the lower barometric pressure and hence partial pressure of oxygen. Hypoxia can lead to a lot of deleterious molecular and cellular changes, such as generation of free radicals or reactive oxygen species (ROS). Increasing of ROS can cause oxidative stress if the antioxidant enzyme does not increase simultaneously. Oxidative damage in brain has toxic effect on cognitive functions. Objective: In this study, we investigate effect of acute intermittent HH on oxidative stress and antioxidant enzyme activity in rat brain. Method: Wistar rats divided into 5 groups, consisting control group and four experimental groups which treated to HH. Rats were exposed to simulated HH equivalent to 35.000 feet in hypobaric chamber for 1 minute, repeated once a week. Results: Level of malondialdehyde and carbonyl in rat brain under acute HH increased at HH exposure (group I) compare to control group. These levels decreased afterward at intermittent HH exposure (group II-IV). Specific activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) shows increasing level at intermittent HH exposure, especially group IV was increasing of SOD level significantly. The increasing pattern of specific activity of catalase was inversely from SOD pattern, but it still has higher activity in intermittent HH compare to control group. Conclusion: Brain tissue seems to be able to perform an adequate adaptive response to hypobaric hypoxia after the training, shown by its significantly decreased MDA and carbonyl level and also increased specific activity of SOD and catalase.

Abstract

BACKGROUNDRed fruit oil (RFO) is popular in Indonesia especially in Papua. It is consumed by people for maintaining health and to treat diseases. Red fruit (Pandanus conoideus Lam) oil is reported to contain the antioxidants á-tocoferol and âcarotene.The aim of this study was to confirm the protective effect of RFOagainst decreased glutathione levels in the plasma and liver of rats induced by 2N-(2-fluorenyl) acetamide (2-FAA).METHODSWistar male rats weighing 200 ± 20 g were randomly assigned into a control group (receiving distilled water only) and three intervention groups, designated RFO, FAA, and RFO-FAA (n=6 rats per group). RFO was given RFO 10 ì l/g/BW/day, FAA received fluoroenylacetamide (FAA) at 40ìg/day, while RFOFAA received both RFO and FAA. At 4 weeks blood samples were taken from the tail. At 8 weeks the rats were sacrified for collection of blood and liver tissues. Ellman’s method was employed to determine the parameters of antioxidantglutathione (glutahione sulfhydryl/GSH). One-way ANOVA and Tukey post hoc test were used to compare glutathione levels between groups.RESULTSThis study showed that liver and plasma glutathione levels were not significantly lower in the RFO-FAA group than in the FAA group. Glutathione levels were significantly lower in plasma and liver homogenates of the RFO group compared with the control group and were not significantly different from those in theFAA group.CONCLUSIONAdministration of RFO in rats does not protect against decreased glutathione but is a potential source of oxidative stress.

Abstract

Researchers have used electric fields as a new therapeutic strategy to treat cancer for the past 15 years. Tumor Treating Fields (TTFields) is an alternating electric field-based cancer therapy approved by the US FDA to treat glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). ECCT (Electro-Capacitive Cancer therapy), a DC charged-discharged electric field (EF) cancer therapy, also shows a performance inhibiting cell proliferation. ECCT affects the cancer lesions to cause simultaneous death of the cancer cell and detached off of the surrounding tissue. The author hypothesizes that the EF produces an electric force that is not homogeneous throughout the tumor mass and generates a strong dielectrophoresis force. The force affects microtubules polymerization during mitosis and causes mitotic arrest. To examine this hypothesis, we performed a numerical simulation of the EF distribution and calculated the force acting on the tumor mass generated by the EF. We analyzed DC electric field exposure on a cancer lesion using a single lesion 2D circular model, calculated the EF intensity on the lesion using the Finite Element Method, and the dielectrophoresis force distribution to quantify the treatment efficacy. The results showed that the distribution of EF intensity was not homogeneous at the lesion-medium boundary and homogeneous within the lesion. The EF intensity is highly dependent on the dielectric constant of the medium and the applied voltage difference that may affect the effectiveness of the treatment. Variations in lesion diameter had no significant effect on the EF intensity distribution and, hence the effectiveness of the therapy. It is considered that EF exposure by ECCT generated strong force on the lesion-medium boundary that could cause detachment of the tumor mass from the surrounding tissue.

Abstract

Glioma merupakan tumor otak primer yang cukup sering ditemukan di Indonesia di antara keganasan otak lainnya. Penderita glioma mempunyai angka harapan hidup yang rendah dikarenakan seringnya mengalami resistansi terapi. Hipoksia merupakan salah satu faktor yang mempengaruhi respons terapi radiasi. Penelitian ini menganalisis ekpresi mRNA HIF-1?, sebagai petanda jaringan hipoksia, pada glioma derajat rendah dibandingkan dengan glioma derajat tinggi. Sampel terdiri dari 15 jaringan glioma derajat rendah, 6 jaringan glioma derajat tinggi, dan 21 sel lekosit dari penderita glioma sebagai kontrol sel normal. Ekspresi relatif mRNA HIF-1? ditentukan secara kuantitatif dengan menggunakan Real Time RT-PCR. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa ekspresi mRNA HIF-1? pada glioma derajat tinggi lebih tinggi dibandingkan dengan glioma derajat rendah, namun tidak bermakna secara statistik. Hal yang menarik yaitu ditemukan peningkatan ekspresi mRNA HIF-1? dengan nilai yang bervariasi pada 73 % sampel glioma derajat rendah dibandingkan dengan sel lekosit sebagai kontrol sel normal. Begitu juga pada glioma derajat tinggi ditemukan peningkatan mRNA HIF-1? dengan nilai yang bervariasi pada 100% sampel. Dengan demikian, dapat disimpulkan bahwa terdapat variasi derajat hipoksia pada glioma derajat rendah dan derajat tinggi yang mungkin mempengaruhi keberhasilan terapi radiasi.Kata kunci: Glioma, mRNA HIF-1?, hipoksia

Abstract

Background: HIF-2α is a transcription factor in hypoxic condition, and high expression levels of it correlate with the concepts of metastasis, therapy opposition and reduced quality of prognosis in various forms of cancerous growth. Due to the exceedingly infiltrative ability of brain glioma cells, gliomas cannot be completely deteriorated with surgery and the relapse rate is high. This study goal to identify the relative expression of HIF-2α gene in the direction of glioma malignancy and its classification. Methods: Specimens used in this research comprise of 20 glioma samples obtained from glioma patients in Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital. Relative expression of HIF-2α was measured by utilizing quantitative Real Time-Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR). Cycle threshold (CT) values were achieved correlated with the amplified DNA, and then the relative expression was attained by using Livak method of calculation. Results: The results produced a greater average of relative expression of HIF-2α in the grade III and IV types (18.64; n=7) rather than in the lower grades (5.68; n=13). However, the data is statistically inconsequential. Conclusions: High-grade glioma tends to express HIF-2α mRNA higher compared to the lower grade. Therefore, it is possible to use HIF-2α as a prognostic marker for glioma- diagnosed patients, although additional experiments need to be performed to strengthen these facts.

Abstract

Cancer was the second leading cause of death globally in 2018. On the other hand, immunotherapy is one of the most promising and effective therapies to fight against cancer. This area of research has highly increased over the last decade. Immunotherapy will modulate and initiate an effective immune response. Hence, the immune system in the body will be more potent in combating cancer. Cancer immunotherapy can utilize herbal products to modulate the immune system with low toxicity. In addition, the usage of herbal products has also proven to decrease the side effects of conventional cancer therapy. Some herbal products have been proven to have biological and pharmacological activity, such as anti-inflammatory, anticancer, and chemopreventive. Indonesia, with its immense biodiversity of herbal products, can use this advantage to develop these sources in the health sector. We showcase some active compounds such as quercetin, andrographolide, curcumin, resveratrol, capsaicin, epigallocatechin-3-gallate, genistein, 6-shogaol, and 6-gingerol. We further highlight the mechanism and signaling pathways that can occur in these active compounds to suppress cancer progression and development. This review discusses the mechanism and potency of herbal products as a modulator in cancer immunotherapy to combat cancer. In summary, this review summarizes herbal products’ active compounds and future promise within the field of immunotherapy.
