Abstract

Cancer was the leading cause of death, which accounting for nearly 10 million deaths globally in 2020. Currently, cancer treatment still relies on chemotherapy, however, most anticancer drugs showed non-specific toxicity to normal cell proliferation resulting in various side effects, and are ineffective against many forms of cancer. In addition, the increasing case of chemoresistance of cancer cells to chemotherapy has boosted the discovery of new anticancer agents. Natural products are known as the origin of several clinically used anticancer agents, e.g. taxol and vincristine. Among natural products, mangrove-derived fungi are of particular scientific interest evidenced by the increasing rate of publications on cytotoxic secondary metabolites reported. Hence, this literature review aims to provide comprehensive information on cytotoxic secondary metabolites isolated from mangrove-derived fungi, which might contribute to the search for anticancer leads from natural resources. Data were collected from original research articles published on scientific-based sources such as Google Scholar, PubMed, Taylor and Francis, Elsevier, and MDPI, in the range of 2011-2022. Fifty-four cytotoxic secondary metabolites with IC50 values below 10 µM were described herein, which were classified in to 8 groups of metabolites. These compounds were reported from 16 genera of mangrove-associated fungi. Among them, Aspergillus and Penicillium were the most frequent producers of cytotoxic metabolites, suggesting their enormous potential as a source of pharmacophores for anticancer candidates.

Abstract

Background: Acetylcholinesterase inhibitors (AChEIs) are substances that act by increasing acetylcholine levels in the brain to prevent neurotransmitter degradation. AChEIs are the most widely used agents for Alzheimer's disease (AD) therapy so far. Objective: This study aims to give insight into AChEIs produced by endophytic fungi through literature reviews, which are promising for further studies on their mode of action. Methods: Data search was conducted through scientific-based websites such as Google Scholar, Science Direct, and PubMed, which involved scientific publications from January 2000 to December 2022. Results: Fifteen genera, including Aspergillus, Cladosporium, Colletotrichum, and Penicillium, were reported to produce twenty-four secondary metabolites with AChEI activity. These compounds were classified based on their chemical skeleton into alkaloids, steroids, terpenoids, polyketides, and peptides. Conclusion: Endophytic fungi are promising sources of lead compounds possessing AChE inhibitory activity. Further research on molecular mechanisms of secondary metabolites from endophytic fungi with AChEI activity can provide new insight into the development of more potent AChEIs for AD treatment. Keywords: Acetylcholinesterase inhibitors (AChEIs); Alzheimer’s disease; endophytic fungi; secondary metabolites.

Abstract

Background: The healthcare sector, specifically hospitals, is vulnerable to antimicrobial resistance due to diverse services and patient populations, alongside continuous intensive antimicrobial use. This resistance presents a significant national and global health threat. Therefore, implementing an antimicrobial stewardship program is crucial for reducing resistance development and spread in hospitals. Pharmacists, as healthcare professionals, have an essential role in upholding stewardship through pharmaceutical services in line with Standard Operating Procedure (SOP).Objective: This study aimed to evaluate Restricted Antimicrobial Standard Operating Procedure (SOP-A) at Tabanan Regional General Hospital (RSUD Tabanan) to enhance the quality of pharmaceutical services.Method: A qualitative method was used in SOP evaluation, comparing data from interviews with the Head of Pharmacy Installation at RSUD Tabanan and observations of implementation. The data were then contrasted with recent literature and regulations to identify discrepancies necessitating improvements. Moreover, data were analyzed using the descriptive method and presented in narrative, figure, and table formats.Results: The results showed that based on interviews and observations of SOP-A implementation, several revisions were needed. These revisions include adding restricted antimicrobials from the reserve categories (cefepime, cefpirome, and carbapenems), establishing a protocol for eligible patients without waiting for culture results, outlining a process for obtaining approval from the Head of the Antimicrobial Resistance Control Program (PPRA) and Hospital Director, as well as incorporating antimicrobial usage history into the restricted antibiotic use application form.Conclusion: SOP-A at RSUD Tabanan requires four key additions, namely a list of reserve category antimicrobials, a protocol for administering restricted antimicrobials to eligible patients without waiting for culture results, a process for obtaining approval from the Head of the PPRA and Hospital Director, as well as inclusion of antimicrobial usage history in the restricted antibiotic use application form.
