Abstract

Preeclampsia is a hyperdynamic condition that is syndromed by hypertension and proteinuria after 20 weeks of pregnancy. Preeclampsia incident is the first cause of 6- 8 % number morbidity/mortality maternity and fetus in the world. Preeclampsia is related to the disability of physiology adaptation that can decrease perfusion of uteroplacental. Xanthone derivatives in mangosteen have been reported to possess a wide range of biological properties, including antioxidant and antihypertensive activities. Eugenol is a primary component of basil oil. It is known for its antioxidant, antiinflammatory, and vasorelaxant actions. These beneficial effects of eugenol make it an excellent therapeutic candidate for the treatment of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy. This study wants to analyze the best available research evidence on the potential combination of xanthone compounds from mangosteen fruit (Garcinia mangostana) with eugenol compounds in basil leaf (Ocimum sanctum) as an alternative therapy in preeclampsia. A literature review was conducted in the electronic databases PubMed and Google Scholar using the index terms "xanthone" and "eugenol" and "hypertension" and "preeclampsia." All types of studies were included for this study, such as randomized controlled trials, systematic reviews, literature reviews, and pilot studies published between 2010 and 2021. Articles which not written in English were excluded from the study. This search resulted in 10 papers. Antioxidant properties of mangosteen peel extract compounds derived from xanthone, the most significant component is α-mangosteen and γ-mangosteen. Eugenol is vasorelaxant action by increasing the expression of its target genes, Sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca²⁺-ATPase and adequate potassium-calcium- activated potassium channels channel, thereby relaxing vascular smooth muscle cells and decreasing blood pressure. With this review, we suggest that eugenol, which is a vasorelaxant combined with xanthone which is an antioxidant by obstructing free radical and oxidative stress, can be a potent therapeutic for preeclampsia and intend to motivate researchers (e.g., chemistry, biology, pharmaceutical, and therapeutic areas) to provide evidence of these compounds for the management of preeclampsia.

Abstract

Cancer is the world's second largest cause of mortality and one of the most serious public health issues. Despite significant advancements in cancer treatment, cancer incidence and mortality rates remain high. Current research is still focused on developing more effective and less hazardous cancer treatment options. Curcumin has gotten a lot of press in the last two decades as an anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory and cancer-fighting agent Curcumin modulated intracellular signaling pathways that affect tumor growth, angiogenesis, metastasis, inflammation, invasion, and apoptosis, among other things. Curcumin suppresses tumor cell growth and enhances apoptosis via upregulating the expression and activity of p53. Curcumin also has a strong inhibitory impact on the NFB and COX2 activity, which are involved in the upregulation of antiapoptotic genes like Bcl2. It can also reduce the control of antiapoptosis PI3K signaling and enhance MAPK expression, resulting in endogenous reactive oxygen species generation. The goal of this research is to review curcumin's anticancer properties.

Abstract

Nausea and vomiting in pregnancy (NVP) is one of the common main complaint in pregnancy. NVP can be a significant burden to the patient, make a decrease in quality of life, pregnancy threatening or even worse can lead to nutritional loss and death. NVP diagnosed when in first trimester of pregnancy and the other possible cause of NVP is excluded. Management of NVP is included maintaining hydration, nutrition, and lifestyle modification. Also avoiding the smells, food, or activity that can cause nause are necessary. There are some methods to treat NVP including pharmalogical or non-pharmalogical. The non-pharmalogical approach is change nutritional habits, lifestyle and medications. Several pharmalogical agents that can be used to relief the symptoms of NVP are pyridoxine, anti- histamines, metoclopramide, pyridoxine/doxylamine, promethazine and metoclopramide. Some patients also want to try more “natural” medications for NVP like ginger. The pharmacological activity is thought to stand in the pungent principles (gingerols and shogaols) and volatile oils (sesquiterpenes and monoterpenes). The true mechanism of action of ginger is probable to be a gastric effect, to increase tone and peristaltic due to anticholinergic and antiserotonin act. Ginger acts straight to the digestive tract and avoids the CNS side effects common to centrally acting antiemetics. Ginger is available in capsule or syrup form or in candy, cookies, beer, tinctures, teas, sodas, and jam. Nowadays, true dosing is available only if one uses standardized extracts; however, women may choose to use another form of ginger.

Abstract

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a disease characterized by an increase in blood glucose levels caused by insulin deficiency, either absolute or relative. The α-glucosidase enzyme functions to accelerate the absorption of glucose by the small intestine by catalyzing the hydrolytic cleavage of oligosaccharides into monosaccharides. This study aims to explore the potential of AP extract in regulating blood sugar levels through inhibition of α-glucosidase activity in the intestine. This study is an in vivo experimental study. A total of 30 \ rats were divided into a control group and treated with Andrographis paniculata. Examination of blood sugar levels was carried out by spectrophotometry and examination of alpha-glucosidase enzymes by ELISA. Data analysis was performed using SPSS software with univariate and bivariate analysis. Andrographis paniculata extract was able to reduce blood sugar levels and was able to decrease the activity of the alpha-glucosidase enzyme as the dose increased. Andrographis paniculata extract is able to reduce blood sugar levels by inhibiting the activity of the alpha-glucosidase enzyme in the intestine.

Abstract

Allergic rhinitis (AR) is an immunoglobulin E–mediated illness that causes inflammation of the nasal mucosa. In recent years, the global incidence and prevalence of AR has been increased. AR has been treated with antihistamines, intranasal corticosteroids, decongestants, intranasal anticholinergics, intranasal cromolyn, leukotriene receptor antagonists, and immunotherapy. However, because many of the present medicines have documented negative side effects, there is a need to look for more effective and safer alternatives. Herbal therapy has long been used to treat the symptoms of AR, but its usefulness and safety have not been validated scientifically. In this review, recent research on the use of herbal medicine as a treatment for allergic rhinitis is collated and critically analyzed. From 2016 to 2021, the data was gathered mostly from English language publications published in journals or research from Pubmed databases. "Herbal medication" and "Allergic Rhinitis" were the terms or keywords used to discover relevant studies. This literature study may be useful in determining the potential utility of herbal medicine as a treatment for allergic rhinitis, determining the underlying mechanisms of action, and identifying natural product candidates for the development of innovative anti-allergic rhinitis drugs in the future.
