Abstract

BACKGROUND: Nutmeg (Myristica fragrans H.), one of native plants of Maluku Indonesia, has long been used as traditional medicines especially to treat tumors, externally to treat skin infections. M. fragrans also has important biological activities as anticancer. However, antimelanoma activity of M. fragrans remains unknown. The aim of this study is to compare M. fragrans extracts as anticancer on melanoma B16-F10 cells by inducing apoptosis.METHODS: M. fragrans seed was extracted with ethanol then fractionated with n-hexane, ethyl acetate, and n-butanol. B16-F10 melanoma cells were cultured and treated with various doses and tested using resazurin reduction assay. Apoptosis signalling via caspase-3 was measured by using western blot.RESULTS: The extract and fractions of M. fragrans reduced viability of cells with IC50 value for ethanol extract 21.83 µg/mL, ethyl acetate fraction 21.66 µg/mL, n-hexane fraction 47.53 µg/mL, and n-butanol fraction >1,000 µg/mL. The active fraction of ethyl acetate induced apoptosis via caspase-3 proteins similar with cisplatin as positive control in B16-F10 cells at 10 hours treatment.CONCLUSION: Taken together, M. fragrans ethyl acetate fraction has the highest IC50 than n-hexane and n-butanol fractions that significantly inhibited B16-F10 cell proliferation by inducing apoptosis via caspase-3. It provides the insight that it has the most potential activity as a chemopreventive agent for addressing melanoma skin cancer.KEYWORDS: M. fragrans, apoptosis, fraction, melanoma

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Ethionamide usage as one of the drug regimens still becomes a challenge due to high numbers of patients developing hypothyroid. Ethionamide had been associated with the inhibition of thyroid hormone (TH) synthesis and interestingly, ethionamide (C8H10N2S)-induced hypothyroidism is supported by its similar structure with thioamides, propythiouracil (C7H8N2S). However, hypothyroidism is not solely caused by its production, it could be caused by signaling alteration. Therefore, knowing that important TH action is determined via genomic pathway, alteration of this receptor could bring serious clinical problem. Unfortunately, there is limited study about the regulation of ethionamide and its connection on TH genomic signaling especially thyroid hormone receptor (TR) gene expression in soleus, gastrocnemius and cardiac muscle.METHODS: Thirty-eight rats were divided into control, ethionamide and propylthiouracyl groups. After 12-week treatment, rat were sacrificed, then gastrocnemius, soleus and cardiac muscles were dissected out, snap freezed using liquid nitrogen, and stored in -80oC until use. RNA was extracted and run for reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).RESULTS: In soleus muscle, ethionamide stimulated TR mRNA expressions and deiodinase compared to control group. In contrast, TRα1 gene expression was not affected by ethionamide administration. In gastrocnemius muscle, only TRβ1 gene and Dio2 gene expressions that were significantly increased compared to control group. In cardiac muscle, ethionamide significantly stimulated all the thyroid hormone receptor isoform and iodothyronine deiodinase gene expression compared to the control group.CONCLUSION: Long ethionamide treatment upregulates TR gene expressions and deiodinase in soleus and cardiac muscle, there is different expression pattern of soleus, gastrocnemius and cardiac muscle after ethionamide stimulation.KEYWORDS: ethionamide, hypothyroid, TRα1, TRα2, TRβ1, TRβ2

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Acetaminophen, when used at low doses is a safe drug, but at higher doses it induces apoptosis in hepatoma cells. Arcangelisia flava that grows widely in Kalimantan Island, Indonesia, contains berberine which is effective in protecting the liver. This work was aimed to study the effect of A. flava extract on the modulation of caspase-3 in acetaminophen-induced hepatotoxicity.METHODS: Thirty-five Wistar male rats were divided into groups: I the normal control (water); II the negative control (Arabic gum powder or PGA, 2% in suspension); III the positive control (silymarin); IV-VII (A. flava extract 100, 200, 400, and 800 mg/Kg of body weight (BW), respectively) for 14 days. At day 15th, group II-VII were induced with acetaminophen 1000 mg/Kg of BW per oral for 7 days along with the extracts. At day 22nd, the animals were measured for their serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (SGOT), serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase (SGPT) and gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT), histological examination, and Western blotting.RESULTS: Acetaminophen elevated the SGOT and SGPT (3x compared to normal group), and GGT (5x compared to normal group) of the animals in group II. Pre-treatment with higher doses of A. flava extract (group VI and VII) significantly prevented the biochemical changes induced by acetaminophen. Normal histology of the liver was showed by group I, III, VII, whereas dilated sinusoids, central vein (CV) lesion, and local haemorrage were observed in group II, IV, V and VI. Western blotting showed an inhibition of caspase-3 expression by A. flava extract in dose-dependent manner.CONCLUSION: A. Higher dose A. flava extract shows hepatoprotective activity by preventing the elevation of serum transaminases and transferase levels. Eventually, no damage in the acetaminophen-induced rat’s liver was observed. This plant modulates the expression of caspase 3 protein in dose-dependent manner.KEYWORDS: Arcangelisia sp, caspase-3, berberine, hepatoprotective activity, NSAIDs, yellow root

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Recently, coffee is widely used for preventing photoaging because of its antioxidant capacity. Among two kinds of coffee, robusta coffee has higher content of antioxidant such as chlorogenic acid (CGA) and caffeine. Researchs about robusta coffee bean effect on photoaging due to UVB radiation is still limited. Therefore, the aim of this study was to examine the effect of robusta extract cream (RE cream) on preventing wrinkle in mice induced by ultraviolet-B (UVB) radiation.METHODS: RE cream was made by mixing RE coffee with moisturizing cream in different concentration (10%, 20%, and 40%). Twenty-five male of Mus musculus Balb/c strain mice aged 4 weeks were divided into five groups; control group, UVB group, UVB + 10% RE group, UVB + 20% RE group, and UVB + 40% RE group. The UVB groups were given UVB radiation three times a week with an exposure duration of 100 seconds per time for ten weeks. At the end of the treatment, skin samples were excised and statined histologically, also were analyzed for their protein expression. Evaluation of wrinkles was carried out using the Bissete method before and after treatment. To evaluate the thickness of the epidermis, HE staining was performed, while masson Trichome staining was performed to determine the collagen content.RESULTS: RE cream-treated groups showed lower wrinkle score compared to the control group. Furthermore, in UVB + 10% RE group, the RE cream application reduce wrinkle formation. In UVB + 10% RE group and UVB + 20% RE group, the RE cream application increased epidermal thickness and collagen content (p=0.00). While collagenase, matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) expression was lower in UVB + 20% RE group compared to the UVB group (p<0.05), however the MMP1 expression in UVB + 40% RE group was higher than other treatment group.CONCLUSION: RE cream prevents wrinkle by maintaining epidermal thickness and collagen contain. RE cream also decreases MMP-1 expression in mice.KEYWORDS: coffee, collagen, MMP-1, robusta, wrinkle

Abstract

BACKGROUND: The lic1A gene is an important virulence factor for non-typeable H. influenzae (NTHi), which allows its translocation from the nasopharynx into the sinonasal cavity and modulates more severe inflammatory processes. This study is aimed for identifying the potential correlation between the NTHi lic1A gene expressions and the severity of post-viral acute rhinosinusitis.METHODS: Sixty patients who were diagnosed with post-viral acute rhinosinusitis, were recruited from an ENT clinic in a referral hospital, in Bandung, West Java, Indonesia. All patients underwent a historical assessment and ENT examination. The nasal specimen was taken from the patient’s middle meatal. The NTHi lic1A gene expression was detected using Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR).RESULTS: We observed that eight patients had the NTHi lic1A (+), with a strong correlation toward the dominant symptoms (nasal obstruction and discharge). In addition, the symptom’s duration of the NTHi lic1A (+) was twice longer than patients with the NTHi lic1A (-). Its severity was significantly more different between the two groups (p=0.034).CONCLUSION: Taken together, the presence of the NTHi lic1A gene is significantly associated with the severity of the disease and the symptom’s duration. Thus, the NTHi lic1A gene could potentially be a good marker for assessing the severity of post-viral acute rhinosinusitis cases in the future.KEYWORDS: H. influenzae, rhinosinusitis, nasal obstruction, virulence factors
