Abstract

Diseases caused by oxidative stress and inflammation are global health problems that encourage the search for alternative treatments from natural materials. Grapevine leaves (Gynura procumbens (Lour.) Merr.) have long been empirically used, but scientific validation of their potential is still limited. The objective of this research is to identify and describe the active substances in sambung nyawa leaves and assess their effectiveness as natural antioxidants and anti-inflammatory agents. The study involves conducting laboratory experiments, starting with the extraction of sambung nyawa leaves using 96% ethanol solvent through a maceration process. The extract obtained is then analysed for its phytochemical composition. The antioxidant activity is evaluated using the DPPH method to determine the IC₅₀ value. On the other hand, the anti-inflammatory properties are tested in male Wistar rats following the induction of rat hind paw edema with 1% carrageenan, using extract doses of 75, 150, and 300 mg/kgBW. The findings indicate a 13.4% yield from the extraction process. The phytochemical analysis reveals the presence of flavonoids, alkaloids, saponins, tannins, phenols, and steroids/triterpenoids. The antioxidant test results show a moderate level of activity with an IC₅₀ value of 89.26 µg/mL. In the anti-inflammatory test, the 150 mg/kgBW dose demonstrates the highest efficacy with a 52.00% reduction in edema, comparable to the positive control triamcinolone (55.00%). In summary, the ethanol extract of sambung nyawa leaves exhibits promising potential as an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agent, indicating its suitability for further development as a botanical pharmaceutical ingredient.

Abstract

Cerebrovascular accident (CVA) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality, often requiring intensive care unit (ICU) treatment. Patients with CVA are at high risk for secondary infections, which commonly lead to the use of antibiotics. This study aimed to evaluate the patterns and rationality of antibiotic use in CVA patients treated in the ICU of a regional hospital using the Gyssens method. A retrospective observational study was conducted involving 30 CVA patients who received antibiotics during their ICU stay. Data collected included patient demographics, comorbidities, types of antibiotics used, route of administration, combination patterns, and evaluation of prescription rationality based on the Gyssens criteria. The most frequently used antibiotic class was third-generation cephalosporins (60%), with ceftriaxone being the most prescribed (46.7%). All antibiotics were administered intravenously. Combination therapy was used in 20% of cases. Based on Gyssens categorization, only 33.3% of prescriptions were considered rational (category 0). The remaining 66.7% were irrational, including delayed initiation or discontinuation (13.3%), incorrect dosing (16.7%), unnecessarily broad-spectrum (10%), and no indication (6.7%). The study highlights a substantial proportion of irrational antibiotic use in ICU CVA patients, mainly due to suboptimal timing, dosing errors, and unnecessary broad-spectrum antibiotics. These findings underline the importance of antimicrobial stewardship and routine rationality assessments to ensure optimal antibiotic use and patient outcomes.

Abstract

The demand for aphrodisiac use is substantial, however, many marketed herbal products contain synthetic drugs, underscoring the urgent need for safer natural therapeutic alternatives. This study aimed to evaluate the aphrodisiac potential of ethanol extract of Elephantopus scaber (Tapak Liman) leaves on serum testosterone levels and testicular histology in male Wistar rats. The extract was obtained through maceration with 70% ethanol and subjected to phytochemical screening, which revealed the presence of flavonoids, tannins/phenolics, and triterpenoids. Healthy male Wistar rats were divided into five groups: normal control, negative control, positive control (sildenafil), and two treatment groups receiving 100 mg/kg BW and 200 mg/kg BW of the extract for 21 days. Serum testosterone levels were measured using ELISA, while histological examination focused on the diameter of seminiferous tubules. The results demonstrated that the 200 mg/kg BW dose significantly increased testosterone levels (209.41 ± 0.62 ng/dL) compared with the negative control (120.32 ± 1.55 ng/dL) and restored the diameter of seminiferous tubules (220.56 ± 4.98 µm) close to normal conditions (225.30 ± 5.12 µm). The 100 mg/kg BW dose produced a moderate effect, while the positive control also showed notable improvement. The observed increase in testosterone and recovery of seminiferous tubule diameter indicate that the extract enhances spermatogenic activity and testicular function. In conclusion, the ethanol extract of E. scaber leaves at 200 mg/kg BW demonstrated significant aphrodisiac activity through hormonal stimulation and improvement of testicular histology, suggesting its potential as a natural agent to support male reproductive health.

Abstract

Estrogen receptor beta (ERβ) is an isoform of estrogen receptor that plays a role in breast cancer. An E3 ubiquitin ligase, murine double minute 2 (MDM2), can bind to ERβ and degrade it. Virtual screening and protein-protein docking studies are one of the approaches that can be performed to discover FDA-approved drugs targeting the interaction of the ERβ-MDM2 complex. This study aimed to conduct virtual screening of 1615 compounds targeting the interaction between ERβ-MDM2 as an initial study to discover potential breast cancer drugs. Biovia Discovery Studio 2021, ClusPro 2.0, PyRx 8.0, and PyMOL software were utilized in this study. ERβ (PDB ID: 3OLS) and MDM2 (PDB ID: 1T4E) receptors were docked to obtain the ERβ-MDM2 protein complex. The ligands used in the virtual screening were FDA-approved drugs downloaded from the ZINC database. PIC and PLIP web tools were also utilized to analyze the amino acid residues involved in the interaction. The virtual screening results showed that ergotamine was the drug with the lowest energy score (-12.0 kcal/mol) among 1057 drugs and was able to establish the strongest interaction between ERβ-MDM2. In conclusion, based on this computational study, ergotamine strengthens the interaction between ERβ-MDM2 and thus could be used as a candidate for breast cancer drug. Thorough validation of in vitro, biochemical, and in vivo studies are needed to confirm this finding.Keywords: Estrogen receptor beta, breast cancer, protein-protein interaction, MDM2.

Abstract

Mangosteen (Garcinia mangostana L.) is a plant belonging to the Guttiferae family with origins in Southeast Asia. The primary components in mangosteen peel consist of xanthones, particularly α-mangostin, which displays diverse pharmacological effects such as anti-diabetic properties, antioxidant activity, and anti-inflammatory effects. However, due to the insufficient information regarding studies on pharmacokinetics (administration, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity), the objective of this investigation is to explore pharmacokinetic predictions utilizing the pkCSM web tool. The α-mangostin compound, acquired from PubChem accessible at https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/, underwent pharmacokinetic analysis using the web tool available at https://biosig.lab.uq.edu.au/pkcsm/prediction. The study findings revealed that the α-mangostin compound, subjected to pharmacokinetic analysis with pkCSM, exhibited limited distribution capability.
