Abstract

This study aimed to determine the effect of administration of Clitorea ternatea flower extract (C. ternatea) in a gel on the expression of MMP-3 and α-SMA in the skin of rat models induced by UVB light exposure. This research design is experimental research with a post-test control group design. This study was divided into four treatment groups: a healthy group, a UVB-negative control, a 5% C. ternatea gel treatment group (T1), and a 10% C. ternatea gel treatment group (T2). Negative control, T1, and T2 control groups were given UVB treatment with 302 nm energy of 160 mJ/cm2 for 5 days. In the treatment groups T1 and T2 were given the gel of C. ternatea from the 6th day until the 14th day. On day 15, all treatment groups were terminated, and the expression of MMP-3 and α-SMA genes was analyzed using qRT-PCR. In the 10% C. ternatea gel treatment group, there was a decrease in MMP-3 gene expression (0.73±0.26) and an increase in α-SMA gene expression (16.4±8.3) compared to the UVB control group which had gene expression. MMP-3 (3.24+1.05) and α-SMA gene expression (0.1±0.0). The administration of C. ternatea gel resulted in a reduction in the expression of the MMP-3 gene and an increase in the expression of the α-SMA gene. Overall, C. ternatea has the potential to prevent UVB-induced hyperpigmentation.

Abstract

Background: The combination of herbal extracts has the potential to enhance cytotoxic effects against cancer cells. This study explores the combined cytotoxic effects of Curcuma longa and Phyllanthus niruri extracts on HCT-116 colorectal cancer cells. Objective: To assess the cytotoxic effects of Curcuma longa and Phyllanthus niruri extracts when used in combination and to determine the most effective ratio for inhibiting HCT-116 cell growth. Methods: HCT-116 cells were treated for 24 hours with varying concentrations of Curcuma longa and Phyllanthus niruri extracts based on the IC50 values of each extract administered individually. The concentrations for Phyllanthus niruri were 164 µg/mL (one part), 82 µg/mL (half part), and 41 µg/mL (quarter part), while for Curcuma longa the concentrations were 47 µg/mL (one part), 24 µg/mL (half part), and 12 µg/mL (quarter part). Cytotoxicity was assessed using the MTT assay. Results: The combination of Phyllanthus niruri and Curcuma longa extracts demonstrated varied cytotoxic effects. The most effective combination was identified as Phyllanthus niruri to Curcuma longa ratio of 1:0.25, resulting in a 13.5% cell viability rate. Interaction studies using the Chou-Talalay method indicated that the combination index (CI) revealed the most synergistic effect at a ratio of 0.25:0.50. Conclusion: The study identifies that the combination of Phyllanthus niruri and Curcuma longa extracts exhibits synergistic cytotoxic effects on HCT-116 cells, with the optimal combination showing significant inhibition of cell growth. These findings support further investigation into the synergistic potential of these extracts for colorectal cancer therapy.

Abstract

Background: Psoriasis is a chronic, immune-mediated skin disease that also has systemic manifestations. Case: In this report, we discuss our findings about a 47-years old psoriasis suffering male patient with a Psoriasis Area Severity Index (PASI) score of 10.8, treated with Wharton’s Jelly Mesenchymal Stem Cells-derived Secretome (S-MSCs). Remarkably, complete regression was recorded within a treatment period of a week only. Result: The patient demonstrated a decrease in PASI, from 10.8 to 3.2 after 1 infusion and followed by 4 intramuscular injections of S-MSCs. Bioactive factors secreted by MSCs, cytokines and growth factors, are very likely to be the principal molecules which play a vital role in inflammatory modulation and skin tissue regeneration. No serious adverse events were noted for the patient as a result of secretome infusion and intramuscular injection. Conclusion: This report demonstrates safety and promises to be an effective strategy using S-MSCs treatment for managing the psoriatic issue and, thus, may offer as an alternative approach to overcome the limitations of the cell-based therapy.

Abstract

Background: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are known for their immunomodulatory properties, particularly their ability to secrete anti-inflammatory cytokines such as interleukin-10 (IL-10). Enhancing the secretion of IL-10 by MSCs could have significant therapeutic potential for treating inflammatory diseases. Objective: This study aimed to prime the secretion of IL-10 by MSCs through the use of conditioned medium (CM) derived from lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). Methods: MSCs were isolated from Wharton’s Jelly and characterized using flow cytometry and differentiation assays. PBMCs were isolated from human blood samples and stimulated with LPS to produce a pro-inflammatory environment. The conditioned medium from these LPS-induced PBMCs was collected and add to MSCs culture medium in 5% and 7.5%. After 24h and 48h incubation, IL-10 secretion by MSCs was measured using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Results: The results demonstrated that MSCs cultured in the conditioned medium from LPS-induced PBMCs showed a significant increase in IL-10 secretion compared to control conditions in 24h exposure, but not significantly different in 48h. Conclusion: The exposure of conditioned medium from LPS-induced PBMCs may effectively enhances the secretion of IL-10 by MSCs.

Abstract

Introduction: Heart rate variability (HRV) is the fluctuation in the interval between two heartbeats. Decreased HRV indicates less flexibility of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) to physiological changes and is associated with poorer disease progression and mortality in several diseases. We reviewed conditions where HRV can be utilized as a predictive tool for palliative patients. Methods: We performed a comprehensive search in PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar to find articles related to HRV and prognosis for cancer-related disorders, cardiovascular disease, and sepsis. 41 relevant articles were selected and reviewed. Results: ANS changes due to chronic cancer pain and metastastic bone cancer can be detected by HRV analysis and increased vagal activity is related with longer survival on advanced cancer patients. Lower HF is a risk factor for shorter life expectancy of metastatic or recurrent breast cancer. SDNN and RMSSD reduction correlates with poorer survival in NSCLC and metastatic brain cancer. Increased risk of stroke was observed in patients with lower RMSSD and SDNN. Reductions of both scores and LF were associated with two times increased risk of myocardial infarction and higher mortality one year after stroke. A decrease in HRV is related to mortality but is not specific to cardiovascular disease. SDNN and HF are HRV parameters that are most consistently correlated with sepsis and can predict mortality within 30 days of hospitalization. Conclusion: HRV analysis helps in assessing the prognosis of diseases. Typically, reduced HRV is linked to worse outcomes and increased mortality rates in conditions such as cancer, cardiovascular disease, and sepsis.
