Abstract

It has been evaluated the influence of fermented horse milk into Balb/c mice on immunity against hepatitis A vaccine. The study employed a complete randomized design using thirty mice which were divided into 3 groups. Each group orally consumed fermented horse milk at dose 0.4 mL/20g body weight, levamisole (as positive control) at dose 0.4 mL/0.45 mg/20g body weight and distilled water (as negative control) at dose 0.4 mL/20g body weight respectively on a daily basis in addition to the standard diet for 46 days. The mice were immunized intraperitoneally (3 times) at d 7, d 28, and d 42, with 0.65 μg/20g body weight of hepatitis A vaccine. Blood samples were collected from plexus retroorbitalis using heparinized capillary one week after first (d 14), second (d 35) and 4 days (d 46) after third immunizations, and then mice were sacrificed to isolate the lymphocytes. The IgM, IgG and IgA titers in the sera and the culture media were measured by ELISA.The IgM (except d 46), IgG (subtype IgG1 (except d 14), IgG2a, IgG2b, IgG3 (except d 35), and IgA titers in the sera significantly higher (p<0.05) than controls. This difference was associated with enhanced in vitro antibodies secretion by cultured lymphocytes isolated from the spleen for IgA. The result suggested that orally fermented horse milk supplementation inhances immunity against hepatitis A vaccine in Balb/c mice. The SDS-PAGE showed that 30-kDa proteins were present in fermented horse milk as well as fermented cow milk, but 7.4-kDa protein present only in fermented horse milk.Key words : fermented horse milk, immunity, hepatitis A vaccine, Balb/c mice.

Abstract

Hyperlipidemia is a pathological condition due to lipid metabolism abnormalities. Increased and oxidized LDL in hyperlipidemia will trigger an inflammatory response and produce proinflammatory cytokines, such as vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) and Interleukin-6 (IL-6). Curcumin can be used as antioxidants, anti-inflammatory and antihyperlipidemia, but as it is practically insoluble in water, formulation of curcumin nanosuspension is made to improve the effects of curcumin therapy. This study was conducted to determine the activities of nanocurcumin preparation as preventive measures for rats induced with hyperlipidemia. The test animals used were 49 male Wistar rats divided into 7 test groups: normal control group, negative control group, 80mg/kg BW/day curcumin control group, and nanosuspension curcumin dose of 80mg/kg BW/day, nanoemulsion curcumin dose of 80mg/kg BW/day, SNEDDS curcumin dose of 80mg/kg BW/day and solid lipid nanoparticles dose of 80mg/kg BW/day. Provision of preventive measure was performed on days 1-67. On day 11-67, the induction of lard and egg yolk (1:1) was administered with a volume of 2mL/200g of rat BW. On the 68th day, blood samples were taken for the determination of VCAM-1 and IL-6 parameters using Biotin-Streptavidin-Amplified Enzyme-Linked Immuno-sorbent Assay method. Data analysis of VCAM-1 and IL-6 levels between test groups were conducted by means of normality test and One-way ANOVA (p<0.05). Based on the data of VCAM-1 and IL-6 levels, nanocurcumin dose of 80mg/kg BW preparation was able to significantly improve the preventive activity of curcumin compared to curcumin suspension dose of 80mg/kg BW by reducing VCAM-1 levels in SNEDDS (53.260%), nanoemulsion (52.737%), nanosuspension (52.325%) and solid lipid nanoparticles (51.444%) and decreasing IL-6 levels in SNEDDS (33.030%), nanoemulsion (31.568%), nanosuspension (29.898%), and solid lipid nanoparticles (28.875%).
