Abstract

Introduction: Proper wound healing is characterized by increased neovascularization, fibroblast cell number and epithelialization. This process can be accelerated using several natural substances and one of them is Neem (Azadirachta indica A. Juss) twigs extract. However, its wound healing effect is still poorly investigated. Therefore, the aim of this study was to assess the efficacy of ethanol extract of Neem twigs peel gel toward wound healing in male albino Wistar rats (Rattus norvegicus). Methods: A randomized posttest only control group study was conducted using 28 male albino Wistar rats as a subject. Subjects were divided into four groups; the first and second group was the control group which was treated using placebo gel for 4 and 12 days while the third and fourth groups were treated with 12.5% extract gel for 4 and 12 days. On day 4 and 12, rats were euthanized then examined histologically. Results: The results showed a significant increase of neovascularization in the P1.4 compared to P0.4. However, it decreased significantly at day 12. Similarly, the number of fibroblast cells was also increased in the treatment group until day 4 but decreased significantly and even lower than the control group at day 12. On contrary, epithelialization was continuously increased in both group and the treatment groups consistently demonstrated higher epithelialization compared to control. Conclusion: It can be concluded that ethanol extract of Neem twigs peel gel enhanced wound healing process in male albino Wistar rats.

Abstract

Introduction: Dyslipidemia is one of the most prevalent health conditions and often leads to development of many chronic diseases such as coronary artery disease, heart failure, and stroke. This study was conducted to investigate the effects of bitter gourd (Momordica Charantia) extract on lipid profiles in male wistar rats fed with high-fat diet. Methods: This study was an experimental research using randomized post-test only control group design. The subjects were 36 male Wistar rats (Rattus norvegicus) randomly divided into 2 groups. The first group was the control group (P0) and fed with placebo while the treatment group (P1) received bitter gourd (Momordica Charantia) ethanol extract at 1g/kg body weight/day. Both groups were fed with high fat diet. The experiment was lasted for 35 days and lipid profiles were measured at the end of the experiment. Results: Statistical analysis results revealed the mean of total cholesterol, triglyceride, and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) in the treatment group were significantly lower than control group while high-density lipoprotein (HDL) was significantly higher in the treatment group (p<0.05). Conclusion: This study concluded that bitter gourd extract significantly prevent dyslipidemia on male Wistar rats fed with high-fat diet.

Abstract

Background: The healing process of burns wound can be accelerated using natural compound and one example of alternative medicine is virgin red palm Oil (VRPO). However, scientific evidence that back this notion is still lacking. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the effect VRPO toward burn wound healing in male wistar rats (Rattus norvegicus). Methods: An experimental randomized post-test only control group study was conducted using 28 male Wistar rats. Burn wound was created in all rats but only treatment group received VRPO while the control group was treated with placebo cream. Skin sample was obtained from each rat at day 4 and 11 for histological examination (fibroblasts density, neovascularization, and epithelialization). Results: The results showed that VRPO improved fibroblast density, neovascularization, and epithelialization at day 4 compared to control group. However, at day 11, there was a decreased in fibroblast density and neovascularization while epithelialization continuously increased at double the rate of the control group. Conclusion: Topical VRPO improved burn wound healing by increasing wound healing speed and epithelialization.

Abstract

Background: Wound healing can be accelerated by the supplementation of naturalcompound especially flavonoids and tannins. These compounds is known to be abundant in several plant species such as moringa (Moringa oleifera). Therefore, the aim of this study was to assess the effect of moringa leaves extract gel toward wound healing rate in in male Wistar rats (Rattus norvegicus). Methods: This research was a true experimental study using randomized post-test only control group design. Subjects were 28 rats (Rattus norvegicus), males, 5-6 months old, weighing 200-250 gram, which were divided into four groups (n= 7 rats) randomly. The first group was treated with placebo for 4 days (P0(4)), the second group was treated with moringa leaves extract gel for 4 days (P1(4)), the third group was treated with placebo for 11 days (P0(11)), and the fourth group was treated with moringa leaves extract gel for 11 days (P1(11)), and the last of intervention carried out measurements of fibroblast cell , neovascularization and epithelialization. Results: Administration of moringa leaves extract gel significantly increased the fibroblast density, neovascularization, and epithelial thickness. However, despite increased density of fibroblast and neovascularization at day 4, they significantly dropped at the second measurement (day 11). On the other hand, epithelial thickness was consistently improved overtime compared to control. Conclusion: The Moringa oleifera leaves extract gel improved wound healing by speeding healing process and epithelialization in male wistar rats (Rattus norvegicus).

Abstract

Introduction: Cigarette smoke is one of the most common sources of free radicals that accelerate aging process. This process can be countered by avoiding cigarette and consuming anti-oxidants. Melatonin is one of well-known anti-oxidant which can be safely consumed. Therefore, the aim of this study was to assess the effect of oral melatonin supplementation toward the level of superoxide dismutase and malondialdehyde in male Wistar rats exposed by cigarette smoke. Methods: An experimental pretest-posttest control group study was conducted using 18 male Wistar rats, 12 weeks old, and 180-200 gr in weight. The subjects were divided into two groups (n= 9 rats) randomly. Both groups were exposed by cigarette smoke but treatment group (P1) was treated with 2 mg of melatonin per 200 gr BW rats for 14 days. The levels of SOD and MDA were measured using the ELISA method. Results: The baseline level of SOD and MDA in both groups was homogenous. At the end of the experiment, there was significant increase of SOD level (baseline: 1.13±0.45; post-treatment: 2.57±0.08 ng/mL; p= <0.001) and decreased in MDA level (baseline: 9.53 ± 1.25; post-treatment: 1.44 ± 0.46; p= <0.001) in treatment group while no change was observed in both SOD and MDA in control group. Conclusion: The oral consumption of melatonin countered the adverse effect of smoking by increasing the level of SOD and lowers MDA level.

Introduction: Overweight and obesity are abnormal conditions characterized by excessive fat accumulation in adipose tissue, to the extent that health is impaired. It is associated with a greater risk of various metabolic diseases. Binahong (Cordifolia (Ten) Steenis Anredera) leaves extract is known to contain flavonoids, saponins, and tannins that have an effect on weight loss and a decrease abdominal fat mass. This study aims to prove that the administration of binahong leaves extracts reduces body weight and visceral abdominal fat mass in obese male rats (rattus norvegicus) with moderate physical exercise. Methods: This research was a true experimental study with the post-test only control group design. The research subjects were 36 male rats divided equally into 2 groups, (18 rats each). The positive control group (P1) were treated with moderate physical exercise (20 min of swimming/day for 2 weeks) and oral aquadest (placebo) for 2 weeks, while the treatment group (P2) were treated with moderate physical exercise (20 min of swimming/day for 2 weeks) and oral binahong leaves extract of 400 mg/kg bW once a day for 2 weeks. Body weight and abdominal visceral fat mass were measured after 2 weeks of treatment. The daily remaining feed was observed to observe the food intake. Results: The results showed that the average body weight of P1 group was 288.6±6.11 g, whereas the P2 group was 272±6.48 g (p<0.001). The abdominal visceral fat mass in the P1 group was 9.24±0.48 g, while in the P2 group was 7.43±0.58 g (p<0.001). The median remaining feed in group P1 was 3 g, while in the P2 group was 9.54 g (p<0.001). Conclusion: Together, the results of this study suggested that binahong leaves extracts reduced body weight and visceral abdominal fat mass in obese male rats (rattus norvegicus) with moderate physical exercise.

Abstract

Introduction: UV-B exposure triggers the activation of Protein-1 (AP-1) which disrupts the integrity of the extracellular matrix by inducing MMP-1. Black garlic causes an increase of antioxidant content namely phenolic, flavonoid (quercetin), and DPPH (IC-50). This study aimed to determine the application of black garlic (Allium sativum linn) extract cream in preventing the increased level of MMP-1 expression and the decrease of dermal collagen count in the skin of male Wistar rats exposed to UV-B rays. Methods: This study employed an experimental Post Test Only Control Group Design using 32 male Wistar rats. The rats that were applied with base cream material and exposed to UV-B rays were called the control group. The rats that were applied with 15% black garlic extract cream and exposed to UV-B rays were called the treatment group. The expression of MMP-1 was examined by immunohistochemistry and the dermal collagen count of the skin using Pico-Sirius-Red staining. Results: The mean expression of MMP-1 of the control group was 28.58% and the treatment group was 8.60% (p <0.001). The mean count of collagen in the control group was 57.53% and the treatment group was 83.80% (p <0.001). There was a significant difference in the MMP-1 expression and the count of collagen between the treatment of the control group and the treatment group. Conclusion: Administration of the cream of 15% black garlic extract was proven to prevent an increase MMP-1 expression and decrease dermal collagen count in the skin of male Wistar rats exposed to UV-B rays.
