Abstract

Nanostructured Lipid Carries NLCs have gained attention in formulation science and nanotechnology due to their biocompatible material and ability to enhance skin penetration. The goal is to create products that can effectively deliver active compounds to desired skin layers with minimal side effects. This review focuses on the use of functionalized NLCs in dermocosmetics, specifically looking at their composition, manufacturing method, characteristics, and role in delivering active compounds. The review obtained articles from databases such as Scopus, Pubmed, and Google Scholar, covering the years 2014-2024. Data search was conducted in May 2024. The search used keywords such as "NLC OR formulation OR dermal OR activity”. By considering factors such as NLC composition, manufacturing method, and impact on compound delivery, researchers aim to optimize NLCs for use in topical preparations. This research contributes to the development of dermocosmetics that can address various skin problems more effectively. The search results from 32 articles gave an overview of the widely used NLC components: solid lipids: glycerol monostearate, compitrol 888 ATO, and tristearin; liquid lipids: myglyol, transcutol, and oleic acid; surfactants: poysorbat 80 and polysorbate 20. The widely used methods were ultrasonication and high pressure homogenization. Frequently performed characterizations include particle size, polydispersity index (PDI), zeta potential, and Entrapment Efficiency (EE). The pharmacological activity of active components loaded into NLCs increased than without NLCs. The active ingredient formulated in NLC can produce better activity compared to the active substance formulated directly in the conventional preparation. The application of nanostructured lipid carrier (NLC) nanoparticles on the skin is very beneficial. These nano systems have shown promising results and more commercial formulations, so it is expected to be done in further research.

Abstract

The combination of red betel (Piper crocatum) and green betel (Piper betle L.) leaves is believed to act synergistically in enhancing wound healing. Transdermal patches offer advantages over conventional topical forms due to their sustained drug release, ease of application, and prolonged therapeutic effect. This study evaluated the histopathological effects of a combination patch containing betel leaf extracts for incision wound treatment in Wistar rats. The studies used an true experimental post-test-only control group design, five groups were tested: a blank patch (K−), a povidone-iodine patch (K+), and combination extract patches at concentrations of 7.5% (K1), 15% (K2), and 30% (K3), applied over 14 days with six animals per group. Patch characteristics were assessed through organoleptic tests, thickness, weight uniformity, folding endurance, and pH, while wound healing was evaluated through histological analysis of fibroblast cell counts and collagen density. Statistical analysis was conducted using the Kruskal-Wallis test followed by Mann-Whitney post-hoc tests. The 30% combination patch (K3) showed the most significant healing effect, with fibroblast counts exceeding 50 cells and dense collagen formation scoring +3. These results indicate that a transdermal patch combining Piper crocatum and Piper betle L. extracts effectively promotes wound healing by enhancing fibroblast proliferation and collagen synthesis.

Abstract

Exogenous antioxidants from plant-based sources, such as polyphenols, show potential in maintaining a balance of cellular oxidation in biological systems. Additionally, the rise of antimicrobial resistance and the harmful effects of UV radiation on skin necessitate the exploration of medicinal plants for drug development and photoprotective agents. This study specifically focused on Siraitia grosvenorii or Luo Han Guo, and aimed to assess its phenolic and flavonoid content, as well as its antioxidant, antimicrobial, and photoprotective properties. The study involved the preparation of Siraitia grosvenorii extracts from seeds and fruit peels, determination of total phenolic and flavonoid content using Folin-Ciocalteu reagent and AlCl3, evaluation of antioxidant activity using the DPPH method, and analysis of antimicrobial activity against Escherichia coli using turbidity assays. Photoprotective activity was examined by calculating the Sun Protection Factor (SPF) using a UV spectrophotometer and a normalized function. The results showed that fruit peel of Siraitia grosvenorii had a higher total phenolic content than the seed, and no significant difference in flavonoid content between seed and fruit peel extract. Additionally, Siraitia grosvenorii fruit peel and seed had low SPF value and DPPH reduction. Both fruit peel and seed showed highest antimicrobial activity at the concentration of 100 ppm.

Abstract

The lemongrass plant (Cymbopogon citratus) in Indonesia has great potential as a natural ingredient for medicines because it contains various compounds such as neral, citral, geranial acetate, flavonoids, and tannins. Previous research has demonstrated various pharmacological activities of kitchen lemongrass leaves, including antibacterial, antifungal, and anti-inflammatory properties. Encapsulation technology in the form of chitosan-NaTPP nanoparticles is used to maintain the activity of kitchen lemongrass leaf compounds. This research aims to determine the physical characteristics of the encapsulation of kitchen lemongrass leaf extract with several comparisons of chitosan and NaTPP by testing PSA (particle size analysis test), FTIR (functional group analysis test), viscosity, and stability, including pH and turbidity tests. Encapsulation with a 1:1 ratio of chitosan and NaTPP has a particle size of 524 nm and a PdI value of 0.481, classified as monodisperse (PdI <0.7). The pH value ranges from 6.46 to 7.30, and the viscosity value was 2.134–2.169 cP, which is still within mouthwash standards. The turbidity test showed stable encapsulation results. Therefore, encapsulation with a 1:1 ratio of chitosan and NaTPP is the most optimal choice and has potential for developing the therapeutic effect of mouthwash.

Abstract

Sea cucumbers (Stichopus vastus) contain bioactive compounds with potential anticancer properties, making them a promising alternative raw material for pharmaceutical development. This study aimed to isolate and fractionate bioactive compounds from S. vastus and evaluate their anticancer activity against MCF-7 and HeLa cell lines. Isolation was performed using Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC), and cytotoxic activity was assessed in vitro using the MTT assay. Phytochemical screening revealed the presence of steroids, terpenoids, and saponins. IC₅₀ values were calculated through linear regression analysis. The methanol extract exhibited IC₅₀ values of 13.50 µg/mL (HeLa) and 17.25 µg/mL (MCF-7), indicating active anticancer potential. The n-hexane fraction showed IC₅₀ values of 10.09 µg/mL (HeLa) and 15.11 µg/mL (MCF-7), also categorized as active. Notably, the ethyl acetate fraction demonstrated superior activity, with an IC₅₀ of 7.00 µg/mL against HeLa (very active) and 13.32 µg/mL against MCF-7 (active). These findings suggest that the ethyl acetate fraction of S. vastus holds significant promise as an anticancer agent, particularly against HeLa cells.

Abstract

Quality of life is an important aspect for patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Pharmacist counseling is a non-pharmacological effort that can be provided to improve quality of life and control blood glucose levels. This study aimed to determine the effect of pharmacist-led therapeutic counseling for T2DM patients on improving their quality of life and reducing blood glucose levels. The study used a quasi-experimental nonequivalent control group design, with pretest and posttest assessments conducted before and after the intervention at RSUD Pasar Minggu, South Jakarta. A total of 194 T2DM patients participated in the study, with 97 patients in both the intervention and control groups. Quality of life was measured using the EQ-5D-5L and EQ-VAS questionnaires, along with fasting blood glucose levels. Measurements were taken three times: before the intervention, and one month and two months after the intervention. Paired data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon test, while unpaired data were analyzed using the Mann-Whitney test at a significance level of 0.05. Counseling significantly improved EQ-5D-5L scores (Δ=0.06; p<0.001) and EQ-VAS scores (Δ=6.40; p<0.001), as well as reduced fasting blood glucose levels (Δ=-12.10 mg/dL; p<0.001) in the intervention group after the intervention. The impact of counseling was particularly significant in the pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression domains. However, no significant correlation was found between quality of life and fasting blood glucose levels in this study (p>0.05). Pharmacist counseling conducted at RSUD Pasar Minggu had a positive and significant impact on improving the quality of life and treatment outcomes related to blood glucose reduction.
