Abstract

Plasmodium is a parasite that causes malaria, which is transmitted to humans through the bite of female Anopheles mosquitoes. Plasmodium that infects red blood cells will cause the formation of new permeability pathway (NPP) in the red blood cell membrane. This change makes the red blood cell membrane more permeable, allowing various nutrients the parasite needs to enter the red blood cells. Resveratrol is a polyphenol compound that is reported to have antimalarial activity by inhibiting the growth of Plasmodium berghei. This study aims to activate the activity of resveratrol in inhibiting NPP. The study began with the preparation of blood suspensions that showed infection and non-infection, then test preparations were added and induced using sorbitol, and then hemolysis was measured using a UV-visible spectrophotometer. The test group consisted of normal groups, control and various concentrations of resveratrol, namely 1.25, 2.5, 5, 10 and 20 μM. The observation parameters in this study were the percentage of hemolysis inhibition. Based on the study’s results, the percentage of hemolysis inhibition increased with increasing resveratrol concentration. The IC50 value of the NPP inhibition activity test of resveratrol was 1.025 μM. This study concludes that resveratrol can inhibit NPP in erythrocytes infected with Plasmodium berghei.

Abstract

Oxidative stress is a condition in which an imbalance occurs between the production of free radicals and the body’s antioxidant defense system, potentially leading to various degenerative diseases. Java ginseng (Talinum paniculatum Jacq. (Gaertn)) is a medicinal plant known to contain bioactive compounds with free radical–reducing potential. This study aimed to identify the mechanism of nitric oxide (NO) inhibition through the decomposition of sodium nitroprusside in the Reactive Nitrogen Species (RNS) pathway and to evaluate the increase of catalase enzyme activity in the Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) pathway using 50% ethanol extract of Java ginseng root. The root extract was obtained using Soxhlet extraction with 50% ethanol as the solvent, and five different extract concentrations were tested: 20, 40, 60, 80, and 100 μg/mL. Antioxidant activity was assessed by measuring the inhibition of NO radical formation and the enhancement of catalase activity, with vitamin C as a comparator. The ethanol extract of Java ginseng root inhibited NO radical formation with an IC50 value of 42.45 μg/mL, which is classified as a very strong antioxidant. In comparison, vitamin C showed an IC50 of 6.47 μg/mL, also categorized as very strong. Furthermore, the extract increased catalase activity proportionally to its concentration, although the effect was still lower than that of vitamin C. These results indicate that the 50% ethanol extract of Java ginseng root possesses significant potential as an oxidative stress inhibitor through NO inhibition and catalase activation, though its effectiveness remains lower than vitamin C.

Abstract

Malaria drug resistance, including to development of resistance against artemisinin based treatments, poses a major challenge to elimination efforts. Alpha-mangostin, an antioxidant with in vitro antimalarial activity, is hindered by its poor solubility. This study explores the antimalarial effects of water-soluble alpha-mangostin chitosan-alginate nanoparticles (ACAN) in mice with berghei malaria. Mice were treated with various doses of ACAN, compared to alpha-mangostin in polyethylene glycol (PEG), as well as in corn oil (ACO) and chloroquine as a standard. Growth inhibition rates were assessed, revealing no inhibition in the PEG and normal control (NC) groups, while ACO was less active. The effective dose 50 (ED50) of ACAN was 264.5 mg/kg BW, containing only 15.87 mg of alpha-mangostin, suggesting that alpha-mangostin in ACAN may offer promising in vivo antimalarial activity. Further investigation is needed.

Abstract

Hyperuricemia a condition where a person has high levels of uric acid in the blood. Red betel (Piper crocatum RUIZ & PAV) is a plant empirically used to reduce uric acid levels. This study aimed to determine the effective dose of red betel plant in reducing urinary uric acid levels in male Wistar rats with hyperuricemia. Hyperuricemia condition was obtained by giving chicken liver juice 25 mL/kg orally and potassium oxonate 250 mg/kg intraperitoneally. Red betel extract (RBE) is made by maceration using 50% ethanol. Male Wistar rats were divided into five groups: negative control (CMC-Na 0.5%), Positive control (Probenecid 4, 5 mg/kg), and extract at doses 11.5, 23 and 46 mg/kg.  The results showed that the RBE increased uric acid secretion through urine (uricosuric) compared to controls. The optimal dose for the uricosuric effect of the extract is 46 mg/kg, although this effect is lower than probenecid.   Keywords:          Red betel, uric acid, potassium oxonate, uricosuric

Abstract

Malaria, caused by the Plasmodium parasite, remains a significant global health issue, exacerbated by drug resistance. This study aimed to explore the potential of combining chloroquine (CQ) and resveratrol in inhibiting β-hematin formation, a key process in the parasite's detoxification mechanism. The research began with the preparation of various concentrations of CQ and resveratrol, which were then combined and tested for their effects on inhibiting β-hematin in vitro using an ELISA reader. The results showed that both CQ and resveratrol individually inhibited β-hematin formation at moderate levels. However, their combination demonstrated a significant increase in inhibition, with the most effective combination being CQ at 164.03 μM and resveratrol at 0.98 μM. Statistical analysis confirmed that this combination was far more effective than using each compound separately. The study concluded that the combination of CQ and resveratrol can enhance the inhibition of β-hematin formation, providing a promising approach to improving malaria treatment efficacy, especially in the face of increasing drug resistance.

Abstract

A persistent and abnormal increase in blood pressure in the arteries is known as hypertension (HT. This research aims to assess the consumption of antihypertension at the Puskesmas Central Cimahi. Non-analytical descriptive methods were used in this investigation. Retrospective data was collected by accessing patient prescriptions and medical record data. Fifty-six patient samples in this study met the inclusion requirements. Quantitative and qualitative methods are used to evaluate rationality. Quantitative data analysis is processed to determine the number of patients, gender, age, and type of drug classification. Qualitative data analysis is processed to evaluate the appropiate of the indication, drug, patient and dose. Based on the research results, 52 people suffered from stage 1 hypertension, and four patients suffered from stage 2 hypertension. Amlodipine monotherapy was the most frequently prescribed drug, namely 92%. While the combination of amlodipine, captropil, amlodipine, and hydrochlorothiazide amounted to 4%. The rationality of treating hypertensive patients who meet the right indications, the right drug, the right patient and the right dose is 100%. It can be concluded that the evaluation and use of hypertension medication at the Puskesmas Central Cimahi as a whole meets the criteria for rational treatment.
