Abstract

High levels of free radicals induce oxidative stress. In young adults, as students, the increase of free radicals is triggered by psychological stress, obesity, and lack of physical activity. Malondialdehyde (MDA) is the product of lipid peroxidation by free radicals, which can be used as a marker of oxidative stress. Free radicals can be neutralized by antioxidants such as vitamin D. This study aims to determine the effect of vitamin D supplementation on malondialdehyde (MDA) levels in first-year medical students at the Faculty of Medicine, Pattimura University. This is an experimental analytic study with a pretest-posttest control group design approach. The data used were primary data taken from 22 samples given vitamin D for 10 days and 22 control samples. Measurement of plasma MDA in this study was performed using the TBARS method. The result shows a decrease in plasma MDA levels in the intervention group with a significant p-value = 0.001. This indicates the potential of vitamin D to be used as an antioxidant. Further research is needed to determine the exact mechanisms related to this antioxidant effect..

Abstract

  Background: Hyperglycemia or increased blood sugar levels is a sign of diabetes mellitus. In hyperglycemia, there will be an increase in Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) in the body so that it will lead to a state of oxidative stress characterized by an increase in malondialdehyde (MDA) levels. Galoba fruit is an endemic fruit in Maluku Province that contains antioxidants. Antioxidants contained in galoba fruit can help endogenous antioxidants to overcome oxidative stress. Objective: This study aims to determine the effect of galoba fruit extract on serum MDA levels of hyperglycemia mice induced by streptozotocin. Methods: This study is an experimental study with post-test only control group design and random sampling. The sample consisted of 24 mice divided into 6 groups, namely normal control (KN), negative control (K-), positive control (K+), treatment 1 (P1), treatment 2 (P2), and treatment 3 (P3). The KN group was only given a standard diet, the K- group was only induced streptozotocin, the K+ group was induced streptozotocin and treated with metformin for 21 days, and the P1, P2, and P3 groups were induced streptozotocin and given galoba fruit extract concentrations of 100%, 75%, and 50% for 21 days. After treatment, the mice were dissected to collect blood serum from the heart of the mice to measure MDA levels. Serum MDA levels were measured by the TBARS method. Results: The average serum MDA levels of the KN, K-, K+, P1, P2, and P3 groups were 358.75 nmol/mg, 1278.75 nmol/mg, 522.08 nmol/mg, 526.16 nmol/mg, 442.66 nmol/mg, and 432.41 nmol/mg. MDA data obtained was then tested with one way ANOVA and obtained a value of p=0.00 (<0.05). Conclusion: Based on the Tukey test, both P1, P2, and P3 have the same effect on reducing serum MDA levels of mice after being induced by streptozotocin with P3 providing the greatest decrease.

Abstract

Background: Hyperglycemia is a pathological condition characterized by fasting blood glucose levels exceeding 100 mg/dL, leading to increased production of free radicals and reduced activity of endogenous antioxidant enzymes such as glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px). Oxidative stress plays a crucial role in the progression of diabetes complications. Galoba fruit (Hornstedtia sp.) is a traditional herbal plant rich in flavonoids, recognized for its antioxidant properties. These characteristics mark the potential of the plant as a complementary therapy in reducing oxidative stress in hyperglycemia. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of galoba fruit tea on GSH-Px enzyme activity in the serum of hyperglycemic mice. Materials and Methods: This study used post-test-only control group design. As many as 24 male Balb/C mice were divided into six groups: KN (normal control), K− (negative control), K+ (positive control, receiving metformin 1.3 mg/kg BW), and three treatment groups receiving galoba fruit tea at doses of 100 mg/kg BW (P1), 200 mg/kg BW (P2), and 300 mg/kg BW (P3). Hyperglycemia was induced with multiple low doses of streptozotocin (40 mg/kg BW) for 5 days. We collected serum on day 22, and measured GSH-Px activity using a UV–Vis Spectrophotometer at 412 nm. Results: Administration of galoba fruit tea increased GSH-Px activity, with the highest mean value observed in the P1 group (38.08 U/mL), followed by P2 (36.11 U/mL) and P3 (20.74 U/mL). However, these differences were not statistically significant (p > 0.05). Conclusion: Galoba fruit tea exhibits potential in enhancing GSH-Px enzyme activity in hyperglycemic mice, particularly at lower doses (100 mg/kg BW). This potential has demonstrated that galoba fruit tea can support endogenous antioxidant defense mechanisms as a complementary strategy to manage hyperglycemia. Therefore, this study suggests optimizing dosage and evaluating long-term effects of the galoba fruit tea for further studies.

Abstract

Introduction. Elevated low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), particularly in its oxidized form, contributes to atherosclerosis and increases the risk of cardiovascular disease. Galoba fruit (Hornstedtia sp.) contains antioxidant phytochemicals that may support lipid regulation. This study evaluated the hypolipidemic effect of Hornstedtia sp. extract in hypercholesterolemic mice. Methods. Twenty-five male mice were randomly assigned to five groups: normal control (KN), negative control (K–, high-fat diet only), positive control (K+, simvastatin 10 mg/kg BW), and two treatment groups receiving Galoba fruit extract at doses of 200 mg/kg BW (P1) and 400 mg/kg BW (P2). Hypercholesterolemia was induced with a high-fat diet, and the extract was prepared by ethanol maceration. Because of limited serum volume, LDL-C levels were estimated indirectly using the Anandaraja equation based on total cholesterol and triglyceride concentrations. Results. LDL-C levels decreased in the extract-treated groups compared with the negative control. The Kruskal–Wallis test showed significant differences among groups (p < 0.05; overall p = 0.000). The greatest reduction was observed in P1 (11.90 mg/dL), followed by P2 (16.60 mg/dL), although neither exceeded the effect of K+ (7.90 mg/dL). Conclusion. Hornstedtia sp. extract demonstrated potential in lowering LDL-C in hypercholesterolemic mice, suggesting its role as a natural adjunct for lipid control. However, the use of indirect LDL-C estimation and the small sample size warrant cautious interpretation. Further studies with direct lipid profiling and mechanistic exploration are recommended before translational application.

Abstract

Introduction. Cardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of mortality in Indonesia, with obesity recognized as a major risk factor. Excess body weight not only contributes to obesity but also alters lipid metabolism, thereby accelerating atherosclerosis. Interestingly, not all individuals with metabolic risk exhibit excess weight. This condition, termed normal weight obesity (NWO), describes individuals with a normal BMI (18.5-24.9 kg/m2) but an elevated body fat percentage (men >25%, women >30%). One of the important predictors of cardiovascular risk is the Castelli-II Index, defined as the LDL/HDL ratio, which reflects the balance between atherogenic and protective lipoproteins. This study aimed to evaluate the Castelli-II Index as a predictor of cardiovascular disease in individuals with NWO and obesity among medical students at the Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Pattimura. Methods. An analytic observational design with a cross-sectional approach was employed. A total of 52 respondents were recruited, comprising 26 individuals with NWO and 26 with obesity. BMI and body fat composition were assessed using a bioelectrical impedance analyzer (BIA), while LDL and HDL levels were determined through direct enzymatic testing. Results. Bivariate analysis using the chi-square test demonstrated no statistically significant difference in the Castelli-II Index between the NWO and obesity groups (p = 0.235). Conclusion. In conclusion, despite differences in body composition, the Castelli-II Index did not significantly differ between students with NWO and those with obesity. Further studies with larger and more diverse samples are recommended to validate the role of the Castelli-II Index in predicting cardiovascular risk among young adults.
