Abstract

Acne is an inflammatory skin condition caused by sebaceous follicles and characterized by skin inflammation in the form of a buildup of bacteria and oil that clogs pores and causes acne. Centella asiatica (L.) Urb., often known as gotu kola, has antibacterial properties that inhibit Propionibacterium acnes, thereby reducing papules, pustules, and nodules. Antioxidants, asiatic acid, and madecassic acid found in gotu kola (Centella asiatica (L.) Urb.) can treat wounds. Skin damaged by acne can be repaired and rejuvenated with gotu kola antioxidants, which also help collagen formation more quickly in the skin. This research aims to examine the ability of gotu kola (Centella asiatica (L.) Urb.) extract to inhibit acne-causing bacteria (Propionibacterium acnes) resulting from a literature review. This research method is a literature review or literature review. Research journals that met the inclusion criteria (activity test results suppressing bacterial growth activity) were collected, and a journal summary was made. A summary of the research journals is included in the table sorted by the year of publication of the journal. Based on the results of a literature review carried out by researchers, Gotu kola can be extracted using the maceration method by soaking the plant material in an extraction solvent such as ethanol or water for a specified time. This process was used to remove the active components from the plant material. The inhibition zone formed was evaluated to determine the effectiveness of the extracts or preparations containing gotu kola extract in preventing bacterial growth ...

Abstract

Infectious diseases are one of the health problem that threaten developing countries, including Indonesia. Riau as one of the provinces with its coastal coverage is not spared from this problem. Inaccurate use of antibiotics is found in the wider community, which can be a cause of negative risks such as antibiotic resistance. Antibiotics are drugs that are used to treat diseases caused by microbes. The improper use of antibiotics can lead to a risk of resistance. Resistance can be avoided using antibiotics. This study aimed to classify antibiotic use using ATC codes and determine the quantity of antibiotic use in outpatients by calculating the DDD. This research method was observational, with a descriptive design and retrospective data collection using secondary data by searching medical records. The sample in this study consisted of outpatients at the Tenayan Raya Inpatient Health Center Outpatient Installation between January and December 2022 who received antibiotic therapy with an ATC code and DDD value in accordance with the provisions of the WHO Collaborating Center, using a total sampling technique.The results of the study showed that based on the ATC/DDD and DU 90% methods, there were 3 antibiotics with the highest quantity of use, namely amoxicillin at 165,92 DDD/1000 KPRJ with a percentage of 67,02%, ciprofloxacin at 41,07 DDD/1000 KPRJ with a percentage of 16,59 %, and cefixime as much as 14,69 DDD/1000 KPRJ with a percentage of 5,93%.  Keywords: antibiotics, ATC/DD, DU 90%, resistance

Abstract

The exploration of Tectona grandis Linn. from Indonesia, especially its use as an anti-diabetes agent is still quite limited. This study aims to determine the antidiabetic activity of the fractions from Tectona grandis Linn. leaves in male Rattus norvegicus. The animal blood glucose level was measured first as T0, then the animals were injected with streptozotocin (STZ) 40 mg/Kg BW to induce diabetes mellitus (DM), and then the blood was collected to determine the blood glucose level (T1). The animal was divided into six groups, namely normal group (NC) without treatment, positive control (K+) (DM+glibenclamide 5 mg), negative control (K-) (DM+NaCMC 0.5%), fractions group (DM+nHexane fraction (P1), DM+chloroform fraction (P2), and DM+ethyl acetate fraction (P3), each dose 300 mg/kg BW). The duration of treatment was 7 days, and at the end of treatment, the blood glucose levels were determined. The T0, T1, and T2 are analyzed using One-Way ANOVA and post-hoc LSD. The results obtained that the K+, P3, P2, and P1 groups were able to reduce the animals' blood glucose levels significantly (p<0.05), with the blood glucose levels are 97.01; 110.96; 129.38; and 111.46 mg/dL, respectively. The percentage of reduction in blood glucose level shows that the K+ group has the highest percentage at 66.8%, followed by the P3 group at 64.0%. The n-hexane, chloroform, and ethyl acetate fractions showed similar effectiveness to glibenclamide in reducing blood glucose levels statistically (p>0.05). Consequently, Tectona grandis Linn ...

Abstract

Cervical cancer accounts for the highest percentage of cancer-related deaths in Indonesia, accounting for nearly 60% of all cancer cases.  Therefore, research into the anticancer mechanisms needs to be conducted.  The ethanolic extract of Zingiber officinale (EEZO) contains zingiberene, a chemical known for its anticancer activity. Understanding the mechanism underlying the apoptosis-inducing effects is crucial. This study aimed to elucidate the apoptotic pathway and analyze the gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) profile of EEZO cells. The research commenced with the maceration of Zingiber officinale rhizomes using 75% ethanol to obtain EEZO. Apoptosis assays were conducted on both a negative control group and an EEZO-treated group of HeLa cells (cervical cancer cells). The apoptotic mechanism was evaluated using forward scattered light-side scattered light (FSC-SSC), fluorescein isothiocyanate (FTIC), and phycoerythrin (PE) flow cytometry. Apoptotic results were analyzed by comparing the control and EEZO samples, which revealed the number of viable cells, apoptotic cells, and cells in the sub-G1 phase. The major constituent of EEZO, which is expected to be a potent apoptosis inducer, was detected using GC/MS. The FSC-SSC results indicated a lower number of viable cells in the EEZO-exposed group than in the control group. FTIC results demonstrated that EEZO significantly increased apoptotic cell death, increasing from 68 to 1537 cells. PE flow cytometry revealed an elevated sub-G1 cell population, indicating the induction of apoptosis by EEZO. GC/MS analysis revealed five dominant components in EEZO, which had the potential to induce apoptosis: L-borneol, zingiberene, farnesol, beta-sesquiphellandrene, and alpha-curcumene ...

Abstract

The uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells in one area of the body can spread to other tissues and create more cancer cells, a disease known as cancer. Malignant cancer cells have the potential to become fatal. After cardiovascular disease, cancer is the second most common cause of mortality. Numerous cancer types exist, including stomach, liver, colorectal, lung, breast, and cervical cancers. More than 70% of cancer-related deaths occur in low- and middle-income nations, and the number of cancer-related deaths is predicted to rise steadily, hitting 11.5 million by 2030. Some of the resources utilized to look up information on curcumin's application as an anticancer agent are PubMed, Science Direct, and Google Scholar. Most of the articles that were used were published between 2013 and 2023, or within the last ten years. These journals were found using the following keywords: "Curcumin," "Cancer," "Curcumin as an Anticancer," and "Utilization of Curcumin as an Anticancer Agent." Scholars from many nations have conducted comparable investigations on the application of curcumin as an anticancer agent. Furthermore, it has been established that curcumin directly inhibits cancer cells when used as an anticancer drug. This suggests that curcumin does have anticancer properties.

Abstract

Hypertension, or high blood pressure, has become a major contributor to cardiovascular disease globally. Its prevalence continues to increase, necessitating intensive healthcare efforts. Medication literacy, or the skill of understanding and applying medication information, is crucial for chronic patients, including those with hypertension. However, there has been limited research on this topic, highlighting the need for a literature review of the levels and roles of literacy in the therapy of hypertensive patients. This study used a narrative review approach to analyze the findings of articles on medication literacy in hypertensive patients. This study employs a narrative review approach to analyze findings from various journals. The data were derived from articles focusing on medication literacy in hypertensive patients, identified through literature searches on PubMed from 2013 to 2023. The selected articles were published in international journals, have a full text, can provide data on the role of medication literacy in hypertensive patients, and use quantitative, qualitative, or mixed-methods research designs.Two studies included in the review originated from China. Both articles reported low literacy levels among hypertensive patients. Factors, such as education and income, can also influence literacy. These findings underscore the importance of improving medication literacy in hypertension management, emphasizing the need for better education and more effective development strategies. Both articles also emphasized the significance of medication literacy in the context of hypertension management; that is, they highlighted the need for improved medication literacy and provided evidence of the positive impact of medication literacy on blood pressure control...

Abstract

Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are the most common form of genetic variation in humans. Missense SNPs can change protein structure and function. This study aimed to determine missense SNPs of the IRAK1 gene that can affect the amino acid sequence and lead to changes in protein structure and function, as well as their relationship as a risk factor for SLE. In this in silico method, several bioinformatics tools have been used to identify missense SNPs, including their properties and impacts, as well as their interaction networks with proteins. The tools used were PolyPhenv2, SIFT, PhD-SNP, PROVEAN, SNAP, Panthers, I-Mutant 3.0, and GeneMania. Four missense SNPs, rs11465830, rs1059702, rs1059703, and 10127175, were obtained from the NCBI SNP database. The SIFT test results showed that all the SNPs were tolerant. In the test results obtained using PolyPhen, the four SNPs were benign. The results of the probe test indicated that the four SNPs were neutral. When tested with SNAP, one SNP was neutral, and three others had an impact. In the PhD-SNP test, all SNPs were neutral. In the panther test, all SNPs were benign. The I-mutant assay showed that the four SNPs could decrease protein stability. Tests with GeneMania have reported that most interactions between genes were between IRAK1 and MYD88, and physical interactions were the most dominant form of interaction. Conclusion. rs10127175, rs11465830, rs1059702, and rs1059703 are missense SNPs in IRAK1, which can disrupt protein stability and be a risk factor for SLE. Keywords: IRAK1, SNP, Missense, Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
