Abstract

The declining ability of tissues to repair or replace themselves and maintain their structure and normal function is called aging. Aging is caused by free radical that can induce the activation of elastase and collagenase. Ageratum conyzoides (L.) or known as Babadotan is a medicinal plant that has been reported to be a good source of antioxidants that also inhibit aging process. The purpose of this research is to evaluate the antioxidant and antiaging properties of Babadotan Ethanolic Extract (BEE). Franswoth method was used to determine the phytochemical assay of BEE. Measurement of 2,2-diphenyl 1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) scavenger was used for antioxidant assay, and inhibitory of elastase and collagenase activities was used for antiaging assay. The analysis of phytochemical compounds exhibited the presence of flavonoids, alkaloids, tannins, polyphenols, steroids and triterpenoids, monoterpenoids and terpenoids, and the absence of saponin. BEE has lower activity on DPPH scavenging activity (IC50 = 80.7 µg/mL) than quercetin (IC50 = 3.25 µg/mL). BEE exhibited lower elastase and collagenase inhibitory activity (IC50 = 45.35 ± 2.2 µg/mL and 55.07 ± 1.1 µg/mL, respectively) compared to quercetin (IC50 = 11.64 ± 0.67 µg/mL and 19.91 ± 0.46 µg/mL). Overall, BEE possesses antioxidant and antiaging activities, although the activities are lower than quercetin.

Abstract

Kerokan is an alternative therapy done by rubbing and pressing the skin surface using oil and a blunt object. This treatment has a hepatoprotective effect as it increases heme oxygenase-1, an essential enzyme in heme catabolism. In hepatitis B, heme oxygenase-1 plays a vital role to fight oxidative stress. Hence the damage on liver cells can be reduced or even prevented. Damaged cells indicate by the production of aspartate aminotransferase (AST/SGOT) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT/SGPT) enzymes that accumulated in the bloodstream. This study aimed to investigate the effect of kerokan to liver function by analyzing SGOT and SGPT levels in hepatitis B patients. These were an experimental study with a pre-test post-test control group design conducted in the public health center in Palembang in October 2016. Statistical analysis used the unpaired t test and paired. The research subjects were 30 patients with inactive carrier and chronic hepatitis B. The levels of SGOT and SGPT were determined using the IFCC method. The levels of SGOT in control (19.53±3.44 U/L) and treatment group (20.46±4.53 U/L, Δ=0.93) after 24–48 hours were not statistically different (p=0.53). Also, the levels of SGPT in control (18.66±5.40 U/L) and treatment group (19.80±9.25 U/L, Δ=1.13) after 24–48 hours were also not statistically different (p=0.68) as well. In conclusion, the liver cells of inactive carrier and chronic hepatitis B patients were not damaged (necrosis) after kerokan therapy, and the levels of SGOT and SGPT were still in the normal range. EFEK KEROKAN TERHADAP FUNGSI HEPAR PASIEN HEPATITIS BKerokan merupakan terapi alternatif yang dilakukan dengan menggosok dan menekan permukaan kulit menggunakan minyak dan benda tumpul. Pengobatan ini bersifat hepatoprotektif, yaitu meningkatkan produksi enzim heme oxygenase-1 dalam katabolisme heme. Pada hepatitis B, heme oxygenase-1 berperan penting dalam menangkal radikal bebas sehingga dapat mengurangi atau mencegah kerusakan sel hepar. Kerusakan sel hepar diindikasikan oleh produksi enzim aspartate aminotransferase (AST/SGOT) dan alanine aminotransferase (ALT/SGPT) yang terakumulasi dalam pembuluh darah. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengetahui pengaruh kerokan pada fungsi hepar dengan menganalisis kadar SGOT dan SGPT pada pasien hepatitis B. Penelitian eksperimental ini menggunakan desain pre-test post-test control group yang dilakukan di puskesmas di Palembang pada Oktober 2016. Analisis statistik menggunakan uji t berpasangan dan tidak berpasangan. Subjek penelitian meliputi 30 pasien inactive carrier dan kronik hepatitis B. Kadar SGOT dan SGPT diukur dengan menggunakan metode IFCC. Kadar SGOT pada kontrol (19,53±3,44 U/L) dan grup perlakuan (20,46±4,53 U/L; Δ=0,93) setelah 24–48 jam tidak terdapat perbedaan signifikan (p=0,53). Selain itu, kadar SGPT pada kontrol (18,66±5,40 U/L) dan grup perlakuan (19,80±9,25 U/L; Δ=1,13) setelah 24–48 jam tidak menunjukkan perbedaan signifikan (p=0,68). Simpulan, sel hepar pada pasien inactive carrier dan kronik hepatitis B tidak mengalami kerusakan setelah terapi kerokan, serta kadar SGOT dan SGPT tetap dalam kondisi normal.

Abstract

Highlights:1. This study analyzed the potential of Meniran extract gel for wound healing therapy, a plant-based medicine that has not been thoroughly researched in the context of promoting a healthy lifestyle.2. The analysis found that Meniran extract gel has antioxidant properties that can be used for wound treatment to improve human health. AbstractResearch on the use of medicinal plants to treat numerous diseases has been widely conducted. However, for chronic wound healing, the availability of medicinal plants for treatment remains rare. Gels containing active plant-based compounds may provide a solution. Phyllanthus niruri, known as "meniran" in Indonesian, is a medicinal plant used traditionally to cure various diseases. This study aimed to examine the antioxidant activities of Meniran extract gel, potentially for wound healing. Meniran was extracted using 70% methanol and formulated into a gel. The Meniran gel was composed of three formulations: 3%, 4%, and 5% sodium carboxymethylcellulose (CMC-Na) supplemented with 5% Meniran extract. The quality of the gel was assessed based on homogeneity, spreadability, pH, and viscosity. This study utilized 2,2"²-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) and 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) assays to evaluate the antioxidant activity of Meniran gel at seven different concentrations through its scavenging capacities. The results were calculated to determine the median inhibitory concentration (IC50). Analysis of variance (ANOVA) and post-hoc Tukey's honestly significant difference (HSD) were used for statistical analysis (p < 0.05). The three Meniran gel formulations showed good quality with spreadability ranging from 5.37 to 5.59 cm, pH levels from 5.90 to 6.03, and viscosity from 9.080 to 9.230 cps. Higher gel concentrations led to an increase in the free radical DPPH- and ABTS-scavenging activities. The highest DPPH and ABTS assays were found at 1,000 μg/mL with IC50 values of 69.72 μg/mL and 20.15 μg/mL, respectively. In conclusion, Meniran gel formulas exhibit good standards and have antioxidant properties suitable for wound healing therapy.

Abstract

Metabolic abnormalities caused by the accumulation of human, environmental, genetic and lifestyle variables can be found in diabetes mellitus (DM). An increase in blood glucose carried on by a reduction in insulin production can also result in DM. Insulin resistance often occurs as a result of obesity and a lack of physical activity and aging. Telang flower extract (Clitoria ternatea L.) is reported to have several qualities such as being able to treat DM, chronic bronchitis, goiter, mucosal disorders and leprosy. This study’s objective was to elucidate anti-dibetic effect of C. ternatea extract (CTE) in rats with diabetic complications related to dyslipidemia. Rats suffering from diabetes will be examined after being given oral doses of Simvastatin 0.9 mg/kg BW, Glibenclamide 0.45 mg/kg BW, and 200, 400, and 800 mg/kg BW CTE, model induced by streptozotocin. The expression of the insulin gene (INS-1) was investigated by qRTPCR, Tumor Necrosis Factor-α (TNF-α), and Interleukin-1β (IL-1β) pancreatic DM rats model using the Immunohistochemistry (IHC) test. Both descriptive and quantitative data were acquired for the data. After utilizing ANOVA to evaluate quantitative data, the Tukey post hoc test was used to analyze the data, the expression of TNF-α and IL-1β was found to decrease while INS-1 expression increased in response to CTE. This effect was attributed to the modulation of TNF-α, IL-1β, and INS-1 expression. These findings suggest that CTE possesses antidiabetic properties.

Abstract

Skin aging can be characterized by changes in skin, such as the appearance of wrinkles and loss of skin moisture. Some elements that might lead to cell damages and aging are free radicals through the increase of the activities of hyaluronidase and tyrosinase. Bioactive compounds found in sesoot (Garcinia picrorhiza Miq.) are known for their antioxidant properties, which may reduce excessive amounts of free radicals in the body and act as an antiaging agent by inhibiting hyaluronidase and tyrosinase activities. This study aimed to examine the antioxidant, anti-hyaluronidase, and anti-tyrosinase properties found in Ethanolic Extract Ripe Sesoot (EERS). The ethanol extract of ripe sesoot fruit obtained from LIPI, Bogor Botanical Garden was used for the antioxidant and antiaging assays conducted at PT Aretha Medika Utama in December 2016. The activity of antioxidants was measured as the Ferric Reducing Antioxidant Power (FRAP) of the EERS, while the antiaging assays were performed through the inhibition activity of hyaluronidase and tyrosinase. Results indicated that the EERS has a higher FRAP activity (17.58 μM Fe (II)/μg) than xanthone (2.54 μM Fe (II)/μg) at the highest concentration of sample of 5,000 µg/mL. The anti-hyaluronidase of the EERS exhibited lower activity (IC50 of 619.21±12.15 µg/mL) than xanthone (IC50 of 365.55±25.10 µg/mL) and the tyrosinase inhibitory assay demonstrated a lower activity of EERS (IC50 of 1060.68±12.81 µg/mL) compared to xanthone (IC50 of 218.33±9.73 µg/mL). To conclude, EERS shows antioxidant and antiaging properties.
