Abstract

Edible bird’s nest (EBN) is often consumed as a health food due to its suggested health benefits, including anti-aging effects, however the mechanism is still unknown. This study investigated the effect of EBN extract using long term expansion bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs) as an aging model. Passage 5 (P5) and passage 8 (P8) BMMSCs were treated with EBN extract, and their proliferation, senescence-associated β-galactosidase (SA-β-Gal) activity, and expression of p16INK4a were analyzed. Treatment of BMMSCs with EBN extract decreased population doubling time (PDT) in P5 but not in P8 BMMSCs. In P5 BMMSCs, 200 ppm EBN extract increased BMMSCs proliferation, with PDT reduced by 27.6%. However, 200 ppm EBN extracts did not affect P8 BMMSCs proliferation, although it increased BMMSCs viability. Treatment of P5 and P8 BMMSCs with 200 ppm EBN extract decreased SA-β-Gal activity by 54.8% and 47.1% of the control, respectively (P<0.05). Levels of p16INK4a expression were 5.4-fold lower in P5 BMMSCs treated with 200 ppm EBN extract compared to control (P<0.05). Similarly, treatment of P8 BMMSCs with 200 ppm EBN extract reduced p16INK4a mRNA level by 7.9-fold compared to the control (P<0.05). In order to investigate the pathway of EBN extract inhibition, we further analyzed IL-6 and NF-κB1 expression. Treatment of P5 and P8 BMMSCs with 200 ppm EBN extract reduced IL-6 mRNA levels by 7.9-fold and 2.1-fold of control, respectively (P<0.05). We found that 200 ppm EBN extract reduced NF-κB1 mRNA level approximately 2.4-fold both in P5 and P8 BMMSCs (P<0.05). Thus, EBN extract reduces markers of senescence, indicated by decreased SA-β-Gal activity and p16INK4a mRNA level, and this correlated with reduced messenger RNA levels of the pro-inflammatory factor IL-6 and the transcription factor NF-κB1.

Abstract

Artificial whitening agents available in the market can cause damage to melanocytes; therefore, a safe and naturally derived skin-whitening agent is needed. Avocado seeds (Persea americana Mill.) are often discarded as waste but possess numerous health benefits. One of the compounds in avocado seeds is catechin, a flavonoid metabolite. This compound has been reported to exhibit antioxidant activity and inhibit tyrosinase to prevent melanin formation, making it suitable for skin-whitening applications. This study aimed to conduct phytochemical screening, assess antioxidant activity using the DPPH method, analyze catechin content using HPLC, and perform cell viability tests using the MTT method from the ethyl acetate extract of avocado seeds. Phytochemical screening has revealed the presence of flavonoids, saponins, and steroids. The DPPH assay yielded an IC50 value of 89.47±0.73 ppm, indicating an intense antioxidant activity, and HPLC detected 0.09% catechin. The MTT test results yielded cell viability percentages ranging from 80-100% at test concentrations of 0.75-25 ppm, with an IC50 value of 61.7 ppm. In conclusion, our results indicate that the ethyl acetate extract from avocado seeds affects cell viability without toxicity, warranting further testing for tyrosinase inhibition in the mouse melanoma B16F10 cell line.

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan mengetahui aktivitas antibakteri, konsentrasi efektif, dan pengaruh peningkatan konsentrasi ekstrak etanol daun kari (Murraya koenigii) terhadap daya hambat pertumbuhan bakteri Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli dan Pseudomonas sp. Ekstraksi dilakukan dengan cara maserasi menggunakan pelarut etanol 96%. Pengujian aktivitas antibakteri menggunakan metode difusi agar. Parameter yang diukur adalah besarnya diameter daya hambat yang terbentuk di sekitar kertas cakram. Hasil uji aktivitas antibakteri dianalisis dengan metode one way anova dilanjutkan dengan uji Duncan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa konsentrasi ekstrak 12,5; 25; dan 50% telah memberikan aktivitas daya hambat pertumbuhan bakteri uji. Konsentrasi efektif yang dapat menghambat bakteri Staphylococcus aureus dan Escherichia coli pada konsentrasi 50%, sedangkan bakteri Pseudomonas sp. pada konsentrasi 12,5; 25; dan 50%. Peningkatan konsentrasi ekstrak daun kari menunjukkan semakin luas diameter zona hambat pertumbuhan bakterinya. Penghambatan yang terjadi pada bakteri Staphylococcusaureus, Escherichia coli, dan Pseudomonas sp. tersebut, membuktikan bahwa daun kari mengandung senyawa aktif yang bersifat antibakteri, seperti flavonoid, fenol, alkaloid, dan saponin.

Abstract

Chemotherapy drug “cyclophosphamide (SP)” can trigger oxidative stress that causes hematotoxicity and myelotoxicity, therefore an agent that can suppress the negative effects of cyclophosphamide is needed. Boswellic acid is an herbal medicine that has anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of boswellic acid (BA) in hematology parameter rats induced by cyclophosphamid. Animal were allocated in to six groups, each group consists of 5 rats, the KS: healthy group, KSP: cyclophosphamide group; KSD: comparison group, and BA groups (K1;K2;K3). The treatment groups were given cyclophosphamide (SP) at dose of 150 mg/kg body weight (BW) i.p. The BA groups (K1,K2,K3) were given BA at dose of 250 mg/kg BW orally for 6 consecutive days and SP on day 1 (K1), day 4 (K2), day 6 (K3). The results showed that BA administration (K2 and K3) can help increase/maintain the amount of hematological parameters including hemoglobin, hematocrit, and erythrocytes. Administrating BA for 6 days consecutively before SP (K3) has shown best results on hematological parameters than the others including the comparison group. These results suggest that BA may have a potential herbal therapeutic agents that can mitigate cyclophosphamide-induced hematotoxicity manifestations.

Abstract

For several decades, a protocol based on the use of progestagens has been used to manage livestock reproduction with minimal alterations. Recently, researchers have gained insight into the short-term use of progestagen protocols lasting 5-7 days, which has been found to reduce the incidence of vaginitis and obviate the use of antibiotics. Additionally, this approach enables the reutilization of silicone-based devices such as CIDRs after a thorough biosecurity assessment. However, these devices have certain limitations. At the end of the treatment, they must be disposed of and cannot be reused, necessitating a re-evaluation of their use for technical and societal reasons, including animal health and welfare, food safety, and environmental impact.A chitosan-PEG intravaginal implant formulation released progesterone for a period of four days, corresponding to the degradation time of the implant in the vagina. The use of a simple melting and molding process for the combination of PCL-PEG-chitosan implants has been observed to result in degradation of both simulated vaginal fluid and vaginal tissue of cows. The development of intravaginal devices made from biodegradable polymers is considered a potential solution because these materials would degrade within the body, eliminating the need for removal and leaving no residue. These devices are safe for animals and the environment.
