Abstract

Gangguan kecemasan (ansietas) adalah kondisi medis yang dikarakterisasi oleh adanya perasaan cemas akan sesuatu yang bersifat irasional. Beberapa gangguan kecemasan yang umum terjadi adalah gangguan kecemasan tergeneralisasi, gangguan panik, fobia, gangguan kecemasan social, dan post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Kulit pisang Cavendish (Musa acuminata Cavendish) mengandung berbagai senyawa bioaktif, seperti flavonoid gatokatekin yang diduga memiliki sifat antiansietas. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui efek antiansietas ekstrak etanol kulit pisang Cavendish (Musa acuminata Cavendish) dengan berbagai dosis. Penelitian eksperimen dilakukan dengan post-test only control group design. Tiga puluh mencit putih Swiss Webster (Mus musculus) jantan dibagi menjadi 5 kelompok secara acak: kelompok kontrol (CMC Na 1%), kelompok obat standar (diazepam 0,13 mg/kgBB), dan tiga kelompok ekstrak kulit pisang Cavendish (EEKPC) dengan dosis 200 mg/kg, 400 mg/kg dan 800 mg/kg. Aktivitas antiansietas dievaluasi dengan Elevated plus maze (EPM), light dark test (LDT), dan open field test (OFT). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa EEKPC 200 mg/kg secara signifikan meningkatkan durasi hewan uji di tangan terbuka pada uji EPM (p<0,05) dibandingkan dengan kelompok kontrol. Dosis EEKPC 200 mg/ kg juga mampu meningkatkan durasi di area terang secara signifikan pada uji LDT dibandingkan dengan kelompok kontrol (p<0,05). Pada OFT, dosis EKPC 200 mg/kg secara signifikan meningkatkan durasi di area tengah (p<0,05) dibandingkan dengan kelompok kontrol. Hasil penelitian ini mendukung pengembangan kulit pisang Cavendish (Musa acuminata Cavendish) sebagai terapi komplementer untuk gangguan kecemasan. Anxiety disorder is a mental health condition characterized by feelings of anxiety and irrational fear of something. These disorders include generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, phobias, social anxiety disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder. Cavendish banana peel (Musa acuminata Cavendish) contains various bioactive compounds, including flavonoid galocatechin which is proposed to have antianxiety properties. This study was aimed to determine the antianxiety effect of various doses of 80% ethanolic extract of Cavendish banana peel (Musa acuminata Cavendish). The experimental study was conducted with a post-test only control group design. Thirty male Swiss Webster white mice (Mus musculus) were divided randomly into 5 groups: control group (CMC Na 1%), the standard drug group (diazepam 0.13 mg/kgBW), and three groups of Cavendish banana peel extract (EEKPC) at doses of 200 mg/kg, 400 mg/kg and 800 mg/kg. Antianxiety activity was evaluated by elevated plus maze (EPM), light dark test (LDT), and open field test (OFT). The results showed that EEKPC 200 mg/kg significantly increased the duration of the test animals in the open arms in the EPM test (p<0.05) compared to the control group. EEKPC dose of 200 mg/kg was also able to significantly increase the duration in the light area in the LDT test compared to the control group (p<0.05). In OFT, EKPC dose of 200 mg/kg significantly increased duration in the center area (p<0.05) compared to control group. Results of this study supports the development of Cavendish banana peel (Musa acuminata Cavendish) as a complementary therapy for anxiety disorder.

Abstract

Hyperuricemia, characterized by high uric acid levels, is associated with an elevated risk of cardiovascular diseases. Xanthine oxidoreductase (XOR), an enzyme central to uric acid generation, is implicated in oxidative stress and diminished vascular function. It has become a focal point for potential therapeutic interventions. This investigation aimed to assess the influence of combined ethanol extracts of Kaempferia galanga L. and Zingiber officinale (KGZE) on xanthine oxidase activity and arterial rigidity in hyperuricemic rat models. Furthermore, the research sought to explore these extracts' potential in managing hyperuricemia and its associated vascular disorders. Hyperuricemia was established in Wistar rats by administering potassium oxonate at 4.5 mg/kg via injection. A total of 25 rats were divided into five groups: a normal control group receiving 0.5% CMC, a positive control group with hyperuricemia, a reference group treated with allopurinol (1.8 mg/kgBW), and two experimental groups receiving KGZE at doses of 50 mg/kgBW and 100 mg/kgBW. All rats consumed 25% fructose in their drinking water for 28 days. This study measured uric acid levels and arterial stiffness, revealing that KGZE significantly reduced uric acid levels and improved arterial stiffness, indicating its potential as an XOR inhibitor.

Abstract

Metabolic syndrome is associated with an increased risk of hypertension, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease, which are often triggered by oxidative stress and inflammation. This study evaluated the effects of Kaempferia galanga L extract (ERK) on oxidative stress and metabolic dysfunction using a fructose-induced male Wistar rat model. A total of 25 rats were divided into five groups: normal control, positive control, allopurinol group, and two ERK treatment groups at doses of 50 and 100 mg/kg body weight. All groups, except the normal control, were given 25% fructose in the drinking water and an injection of potassium oxonate (4.5 mg/kg body weight) for 28 days. Evaluation was done by measurement of glucose, triglyceride, malondialdehyde (MDA) and nitric oxide (NO) and histological analysis of aortic tissue. The results showed that ERK, especially at a dose of 100 mg/kg, significantly reduced glucose, triglyceride and MDA levels and increased NO levels. ERK administration also reduced the body weight of mice and prevented the formation of foam and inflammatory cells in aortic tissue. The total flavonoid content of ERK also supports its biological activity. This study concludes that ERK has potential as a natural therapeutic agent to treat metabolic syndrome through antioxidant and anti-inflammatory mechanisms.
