Abstract

Beluntas (Pluchea indica) leaves, kenikir (Cosmos caudatus) leaves, and purple corn (Zea mays) kernels have the potential to be developed into preparations of traditional medicine, which requires standardization of raw materials. The 96% ethanol extract P. indica leaves from Batu, C. caudatus leaves from Wonosari, and purple corn kernels from Sukabumi have been standardized. Both specific and non-specific requirements are covered. Fragment identifiers of P. indica leaves, such as stomata and trichoma. C. caudatus leaves, such as vascular tissue with stair thickening and multicellular hair covering. Purple corn kernels such as amylum and hilum in the form of stars. The thick extracts were obtained from the results of ultrasonic-assisted extraction with yields of 14.76% for P. indica leaves, 7.49% for C. caudatus leaves, and 5.79% for purple corn kernels. The organoleptic of ethanolic extract P. indica leaves is thick and greenish-black, C. caudatus leaves is thick and brown, and purple corn kernels is thick and purple. The water-soluble content from P. indica leaves, C. caudatus leaves, and purple corn kernels was 13.85%, 11.13%, and 10.62%, respectively. The ethanol soluble content was 16.58%, 14.87%, and 15.89%. The total ash content for P. indica leaves, C. caudatus leaves, and purple corn kernels was 15.04%, 9.37%, and 4.76%. The percentage of water content was 9.07%, 14.34%, and 11.12%. The standardized data collected was compared with the requirements in the official monographs of Materia Medika Indonesia and Farmakope Herbal Indonesia. The results showed that the three samples used had met most of the standardization parameters and could be developed into traditional medicine.

Abstract

Java turmeric (Curcuma xanthorriza) and turmeric (Curcuma longa) show similar colors, so they have the potential to be adulterated with each other, especially if they are presented in powder. This research aims to develop an analytical method for authenticating both types of samples with adulterant concentrations of 0.01% w/w and 0.005% w/w for the infrared range and 0.5 μg/g and 1 μg/g for the UV-Vis range. The pure sample was extracted for 40 minutes with 1:10 ethanol using ultrasonication. The extract was then concentrated using a rotary evaporator and freeze dryer. Adulterant samples were prepared by mixing both types of extracts. The absorption of the solution was measured at a wavelength of 200–800 nm and a wave number of 4000–400 cm-1. Multivariate analysis using partial least squares-discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) and soft independent modeling of class analogies (SIMCA) was performed on the spectra. PLS-DA has not been able to authenticate adulterated samples. However, SIMCA analysis can detect differences between pure curcuma and adulterated samples in the infrared range until a concentration of 0.005% w/w, while it can only authenticate correctly in the UV-Vis range until a 1 μg/g concentration.

Abstract

As one of the biggest islands in Indonesia, Borneo or Kalimantan, is considered one of the lungs of the world. The local communities utilize the large biodiversity in Borneo as traditional knowledge on medicinal use. The purpose of this article was to find out data on the diversity of medicinal plants utilized by local communities as well as the parts of plants used, the preparation in the use of medicinal plants, and the phytochemical content of several types of plant species that are most widely used in the Kalimantan region. This article was developed using the literature review method by searching for articles, journals and literature on Google Scholar. A total of 204 species from 74 families are utilized by the people of Kalimantan as medicine. The results showed that the types of plants that the people of Kalimantan widely use came from the Asteraceae family (16 species), Euphorbiaceae (15 species), Rubiaceae (11 species), Zingiberaceae (10 species), and others. The local people of Kalimantan mostly utilize plant leaves and roots by boiling since the boiling method is more effective in the healing process for fever and stomach pain. The people of Kalimantan most often apply medicinal plants by boiling them and then drinking them because this treatment is the most effective. It is believed that drinking it can accelerate healing. Therefore, there is a need for new knowledge and data collection related to the use of plants as medicine by the people of Kalimantan.

Abstract

Antibacterial secondary metabolites such as tannins and their derivatives are found in the Vernonia amygdalina Del. Antibiotic resistance can develop due to overuse, reducing the efficacy of drugs to prevent and treat infections. This research aims to use the Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationship (QSAR) and the semi-empirical method Austin Model 1 (AM1) to design a modified novel compound from African leaves that has improved antibacterial activity. This research includes a descriptor calculation of QSAR using AM1 MOE on typical compounds from African leaves, and calculation results are chosen based on a multilinear regression statistical analysis. The model equation represents the three primary parameters of QSAR, which are electronic, hydrophobic, and steric parameters, which will be used to measure modified compounds. Molecular docking using Autodock Tools (The Scripps Research Institute, USA), and analysis of results of docking Autodock Tools using Discovery Studio 3.5 Client. The best QSAR model obtained is LogEC50 = (0.829 x LogP) - (1,302 x AM1_HOMO) - (0.339 x AM1_dipole) - (5,128 x mr) + (0.145 x vol) - (11,355). The results showed that EC50 prediction of modified hamamelitannin has the best activity with the lowest ΔGbind -9.0 kcal/mol and inhibition constant of 0.249 μM. In summary, the novel compound's design calculation has better antibacterial activity, as indicated by a lower EC50, than fosfomycin or compounds without modification. The modified hamamelitannin compound was found to have better antibacterial activity (prediction EC50 = 0.1933 μM) than the original (experimental EC50 = 145.50 μM).

Abstract

Cancer is one type of dangerous disease that is increasing every year. Free radicals are the cause of gene mutations (cancer). Cancer will develop uncontrollably due to the occurrence of the cell cycle and the presence of compounds that trigger cell proliferation and inhibit the process of apoptosis. This cancer treatment is carried out by giving cyclin-dependent kinase2 (CDK2) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitor drugs to inhibit cancer development, as well as lipoxygenase (LOX) inhibitor drugs for the formation of free radicals. Curcuma aeruginosa RoxB., the plant, is known to have the potential for antioxidant and anticancer properties. This study aims to determine the molecular interaction between the dominant compound in the ethanol extract of C. aeruginosa with CDK2, COX-2, and LOX receptors. The type of ligand interaction with the receptor was determined through the parameters of affinity energy (∆G), inhibition constant (Ki), type of interaction, and percentage of binding site similarity (%BSS). The results showed that the gajutsulacton A had the best potential in inhibiting CDK2. The cucumenol may be a COX-2 inhibitor, and there are no compounds that can inhibit LOX as well as an antioxidant. Thus, our findings demonstrate the potential for C. aeruginosa bioactive to serve as anticancer candidate molecules against CDK2 and COX-2 receptors.
