Abstract

Broccoli microgreens, rich in bioactive compounds, offer health benefits aligned with SDG 3: “Good Health and Well-Being.” Their antioxidants combat oxidative stress tied to chronic diseases, but drying can affect their activity. This study assessed the antioxidant capacities of fresh, microwave-dried, and air-fryer-dried broccoli microgreens using in vitro (DPPH assay) and in silico (molecular docking and dynamics) methods. The microgreens were cultivated under controlled conditions and dried using microwave and air-fryer techniques. Antioxidant activity was evaluated using the DPPH assay using ethanolic extracts. The bioactive compounds of fresh microgreens, detected through GC-MS, were analyzed in silico to evaluate their interactions with the target proteins CYP2C9 and NOX2. The findings revealed that air-fryer-dried microgreens demonstrated the highest DPPH activity, followed by fresh microgreens, while microwave-dried samples exhibited the lowest activity. GC-MS analysis of fresh samples revealed the presence of various compounds, including acids, ketones, sulfides, heterocycles, alcohols, esters, aromatic compounds, phthalate ester, and aldehydes. Molecular docking revealed strong interactions of certain compounds in fresh samples and CYP2C9 and NOX2, suggesting therapeutic potential against oxidative stress. Molecular dynamics simulations (MDS) showed stable binding for the CYP2C9-Methyl myristate complex, while the NOX-(Z)-1,2-Diphenylethene complex displayed weaker stability. In conclusion, broccoli microgreens show potential in mitigating oxidative stress, with air-fryer drying slightly enhancing their antioxidant activity. The antioxidant capacity of fresh microgreens is comparable to that of air-fryer-dried microgreens. In silico analyses demonstrate stable interactions between compounds in fresh microgreens and key proteins implicated in oxidative stress.

Abstract

Leilem plant (Clerodendrum minahassae Teisjm & Binn.) from the genus Clerodendrum has the potential as antidiabetic, antihypertensive, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antimalarial, antitumor, antidiarrheal, antimicrobial and antihyperlipidemic. This study aimed to see the effect of ethanol extract of Clerodendrum minahassae (CM) leaves on increasing insulin levels in diabetic Wistar rats induced with streptozotocin. This study was conducted in vivo, using 20 rats as experimental animals. The experimental animals were divided into four groups, namely the negative control group (Na-CMC 0.5%), the ethanol extract group of leilem leaves 250 mg and 500 mg, and the positive control group (glibenclamide) as a comparison. Each experimental animal was induced streptozotocin intraperitoneally; then, each solution was given for 14 days according to the test group. After the treatment, the animals were terminated for blood collection; the blood was then centrifuged to obtain blood plasma serum. Blood plasma serum was measured by the ELISA Kit (Rat/Mouse Insulin) method, and then the results were read on a spectrophotometric device. The results of the sample insulin concentration obtained showed that 250 mg/kgBW and 500 mg/kgBW of the CM ethanol extract group could increase insulin levels in diabetic Wistar rats, the same as the positive control group glibenclamide. In contrast, the Na-CMC 0.5% as a negative control group did not show a significant increase in insulin levels. Leilem leaves can be developed for further research on their antidiabetic activity both in vitro, in vivo, and in silico, as well as their toxicity.
