Abstract

Prevalensi obesitas meningkat di berbagai Negara Asia Pasifik, Eropa, Amerika Serikat, Australia serta di negara-negara berkembang. Perubahan preadiposit menjadi adiposit yang mature memegang peranan dalam patogenesis obesitas. Teh hitam memiliki komponen antioksidan yang banyak berperan dalam pengontrolan proliferasi sel. Theaflavin pada teh hitam kemungkinan dapat menghambat perubahan preadiposit menjadi mature adiposit, maka prevalensi terjadinya obesitas sebagai pemicu berbagai penyakit metabolik dapat dicegah sejak dini. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk membuktikan pengaruh pemberian sari seduh teh hitam (Camellia sinensis) terhadap pencegahan peningkatan ekspresi IGF-1, ERK1/2 dan PPARɣ pada tikus wistar dengan diet tinggi lemak. Penelitian dilakukan secara in vivo dengan menggunakan tikus strain wistar. Tikus dibagi menjadi kelompok kontrol positif dan kelompok perlakuan. Kelompok kontrol positif diberi diet tinggi lemak tanpa sari seduh teh hitam, sedangkan kelompok perlakuan diberi diet tinggi lemak dan sari seduh teh hitam dengan dosis 0,015 g, 0,030 g dan 0,045g/hari selama 90 hari secara bersamaan. Ekspresi IGF-1, ERK1/2 dan PPARɣ diukur secara semikuantitatif dengan menghitung intensitas warna dengan Corell Photo Paint 11. Skor intensitas warna ekspresi IGF-1, ERK1/2 dan PPARɣ hasil pewarnaan imunohistokimia dianalisis secara statistik dengan One way Anova dan analisis regresi dengan taraf  signifikansi p=0,05. Hasil penelitian  menunjukkan bahwa sari seduh teh hitam dengan berbagai dosis (0,015 g, 0,030 g dan 0,045 g/hari) dapat mencegah peningkatan ekspresi IGF-1, ERK1/2 dan PPARɣ secara signifikan (p=0,000) dibandingkan dengan kelompok kontrol positif. Semakin besar dosis teh hitam maka ekspresi IGF-1, ERK1/2 dan PPARɣ makin rendah. Berdasarkan analisis regresi dengan estimasi kurva logaritmik (p<0,05) terdapat hubungan fungsional dua arah yang kuat antara ERK1/2 dengan PPARɣ (R=0,798 dan R=0,780). Hasil penelitian ini membuktikan bahwa sari seduh teh hitam (C. sinensis) mampu mencegah peningkatan ekspresi IGF-1, ERK1/2 dan PPARɣ pada tikus wistar dengan diet tinggi lemak. Kata kunci: diet tinggi lemak, IGF-1, ERK1/2, jalur MAPK, PPARɣ, teh hitam.

Abstract

Pesticides are recognized as serious pollutants in the aquatic environment with the potential to cause genotoxic on the aquatic organism, especially fish. The micronucleus (MN) assay has been used to evaluate genotoxicity of many compounds in polluted ecosystems such pesticides. The aim of this study to determine genotoxic effect of methomyl-based pesticide on tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus). Fish were exposed to six different concentrations base on range finding test (0 ppm, 3.2 ppm, 4.2 ppm, 6.5 ppm, 8.7 ppm and 10 ppm) of methomyl-based pesticide. The micronucleus were collected from peripheral blood erythrocyte of fish after 96 h exposure. Peripheral blood samples smears were stained with Giemsa, MN frequencies were counted and statistically analyzed using one-way ANOVA. The result of this study showed after 96 hours exposed to methomyl-based pesticide, at concentration 0 ppm causes 0% mortality, at concentration to 3.2 ppm causes 30% mortality, at concentration 4.2 ppm causes 60% mortality, at concentration 6.5 ppm causes 70% mortality, at concentration 8.7 ppm causes 80% mortality, at concentration 10 ppm causes 100% mortality of fish test. Lethal Concentration 50 (LC50 - 96 hours) of methomy-base pesticide towards tilapia (O. niloticus) is 4.015 ppm. Through micronuclei assay during 96 hour exposure of methomyl-based pesticide, the result shows that frequencies of micronuclei in erythrocyte of fish test at concentration at 0ppm is 12‰, 18‰ and 16‰; at concentration at 3.2ppm is 33‰, 26‰ and 29‰; at concentration at 4.2ppm is 41‰, 38‰ and 46‰; at concentration at 6.5ppm is 68‰, 81‰ and 82‰; at concentration 8.7ppm is 133‰, 130‰ and 137‰; at concentration 10ppm is 163‰, 166‰ and 156‰. It revealed that methomyl-based pesticide exposure induced after 96 h significantly (P<0.05) increased genotoxic potentials simultaneous with increased concentration.Keywords: Genotoxic, Methomyl, Micronucleus Assay, Pesticide, Tilapia.

Abstract

Bulbil (corm leaf) is one material source of vegetative propagation in Amorphophallus muelleri Blume. Based on the position in branches there are two types of bulbil, middle and edge bulbils, which are different in shape and size. It has been reported that bulbil size affected not only the growth response of seedlings and plants but also the quality of the produced corms. Therefore, the objectives of this experiment were to study the effect of bulbils origin on A. muelleri Blume (Porang) growth and the quality of harvested corms. The quality of corms was assessed based on glucomannan and (CaOx) content. Bulbils from the middle and edge of branches were grown in polybag (f 5 cm) containing compost:fertilizer (1:1) mixed media under 40% shade. Each bulbil origin was repeated 8 times. The results showed that growth responses of plant from middle bulbil were significantly better than that from edge bulbil. However, at the harvesting time, the weight and diameter of corms derived from both types of bulbils were not significantly different. The glucomannan and calcium oxalate (CaOx) content of harvested corms grown from middle bulbil tends to be higher than that from edge bulbil.Keywords: branching, calcium oxalate (CaOx), germination, glucomannan, Porang.

Abstract

S. aureus menyebabkan berbagai macam penyakit infeksi sistemik, seperti endokarditis, osteomielitis, sindrom kulit melepuh, pneumonia dan penyakit Toxic Shock Syndrom (TSS). Faktor virulen S. aureus dapat menginduksi peningkatan neutrofil, inflamasi, serta menstimulasi sel T sehingga terjadi sekresi citokin proinflamasi secara besar-besaran. S. aureus resisten terhadap antibiotic sehingga mendorong masyarakat untuk mencari tanaman obat tradisional. Tanaman obat lebih efektif, efek samping lebih kecil, dan harga lebih murah dibandingkan obat sintetik. M. citrifolia dijadikan bahan alternatif pengobatan karena memiliki potensi sebagai anti mikroba, anti kanker, anti inflamasi  dan antioksidan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui profil Gr-1 dan CD34 mencit yang diinfeksi S. aureus pacsa pemberian ekstrak air buah mengkudu (M. citrifolia). Penelitian menggunakan RAL factorial. Terdapat 2 kelompok yaitu kelompok non infeksi dan infeksi. Kedua kelompok diberi ekstrak air buah M. citrifolia dengan dosis berturut-turut 25 mg/kgBB, 100 mg/kgBB, dan 300 mg/kgBB selama 20 hari kemudian diinfeksi S. aureus sebanyak 1 x 109 sel. Deteksi jumlah relatif Gr-1 dan CD34 menggunakan Flow cytometry, dianalisis dengan progam CellQuest dan dilakukan uji statistik ANOVA dan uji BNJ menggunakan progam SPSS 16. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa, Pada kelompok non infeksi terjadi peningkatan Gr-1 pada dosis 100 mg/kgBB,  dosis 25 mg/kgBB dan 100 mg/kgBB serta terjadi peningkatan dan penurunan CD34 secara signifikan (P<0.05). Pada kelompok Infeksi terjadi penuruan Gr-1 pada dosis 300 mg/kgBB, dan peningkatan CD34 pada dosis 100 mg/kgBB. Penurunan Gr-1 dimungkinkan karena senyawa M. citrifolia yang berperan sebagai anti inflamasi. Kata kunci: Morinda citrifolia, Staphylococcus aureus, Gr-1, CD34
