Abstract

Introduction: Roselle (Hibiscus sabdariffa L.) is a herb plant that is widely consumed by society. Its flower contains some compounds that have antibacterial activity. Those compounds are flavonoid, phenol, tannin, and saponin. One of the main problems of the oral healthiness is gingivitis. In oral cavity of the gingivitis patients, there is an escalation of the number of bacterial colonies. Whereas using mouthwash is one of the ways to maintain the health of oral cavity. This study aimed to determine the influence of rinsing with roselle flower boiled water to the number of bacterial colonies in oral cavity. Methods: This research was an experimental analytic study with the pre test and post test controlled group design. There were 20 subjects that meet the criterias, they were divided randomly into 2 groups, each group consisting 10 subjects. Firstly, each group was once rinse with 15 ml distilled water for 30 seconds then the rinsing results were put inside the sterile pots. After that, group I was once rinse with 15 ml distilled water for 30 seconds, whereas the group II was rinse with 15 ml roselle flower boiled water for 30 seconds. The level of roselle in this research is 1,5 grams in 15 ml water. The rinsing results were carried to Microbiology Laboratory to put onto the nutrient agar then were incubated for 24 hours in 37C. The differences between the first rinse and the second rinse were calculated. The data were analyzed with SPSS 22.0 for Windows. Results: The results were tested with linear regression test. It showed that roselle has the influence to inhibits the growth of bacterial colonies in the amount of 88%, whereas the 12% is influenced by other factors (e.g. degrees of acidity, the ability of the subjects in rinsing to reach the bacterias). Conclusions: It can be concluded that there is influence rinsing with roselle flower boiled water to the number of bacterial colonies in oral cavity.

Abstract

Background: Current lifestyle has shifted towards high fat diet which leads to hypercholesterolemia. The increased LDL cholesterol (LDL-C) level is a risk factor for coronary heart disease. Natural plants have been increasingly used to manage metabolic diseases such as hypercholesterolemia. Among the plants is bilimbi fruit which is assumed to have anticholesterol effect owing to its bioactive components, namely pectin, saponin, and niacin. This research aims to examine the effect of bilimbi fruit extract on LDL-C levels in cholesterol-fed white rats. Methods: This was an experimental study using post test only controlled group design. A total of 35 white male Wistar rats aged 2-3 months and weighed 160-200 grams were assigned into five groups, i.e. normal control group, positive control group, negative control group, and two treatment groups with bilimbi fruit extract at dosage I and II. After being adapted for a week, all groups but normal control, were given hypercholes-terolemic food and 0,01% PTU for 14 days. At day 22, positive control group was given simvastatin 0,8 mg/200 gBW, and treatment groups were given bilimbi fruit extract at dosages of 40 mg/200 gBW and 80 mg/200 g BW, respectively for 14 days. Blood samples were taken through retro-orbital venous at day 37 to measure LDL-C levels. Data were analyzed using one way ANOVA test followed by LSD test. Results: Mean LDL-C levels differed significantly across groups (p<0,001). Results from LSD tests showed significant differences between positive control group as well as treatment groups at dosage I and II compared to negative control group (p<0,01). There were significant diferences of mean LDL-C levels between positive control group (p=0,044) and normal control group (p=0,001) compared to bilimbi fruit extract group at dosage I. No LDL-C level differences were found between bilimbi fruit extract at dosage II compared to positive control group (p=0,246) and to normal control group (p=0,790). Conclusions: Bilimbi fruit extract at dosage 40 mg/200 gBW and 80 mg/200gBW significantly decreased LDL-C levels in hypercholesterolemic white rats. Keywords: Bilimbi fruit extract, LDL-C, hypercholesterolemia

Abstract

Background:Tamoxifen is the first line hormonal therapy for Estrogen Receptor ?(ER?) breast cancer. Some of phytochemistries pose anticancer activities. However, data of those from Asteraceae family in Indonesia are lacking. The aim of this research is to know the binding affinities and binding locations of phytochemistries in Asteraceae family from Indonesia compared to tamoxifen on ER? in breast cancer. Methods: This research wasa bioinformatic study. Subjects were3-dimensional structures ofER?, tamoxifen, and phytochemistriess Asteraceae family obtained from Indonesian HerbalDB database, Pubchem Compound, and Protein Data Bank. Subjects were prepared by Chimera 1.10 and Open Babel. Tamoxifen was docked on ER? by AutoDock Vina to know its binding affinities of ligand-receptor complex, compared to the other chosen ligands. Binding locations of ligand-reseptor were visualized by Pymol 1.7.2. Results: The docking results showed four phytochemistriess binding affinities whichwere stronger than tamoxifen (-9.6 kcal/mol), such as lappadilactone, friedelin, benperidol, and beta-amyrin. The visualization results showed that lappadilactone, friedelin, benperidol, beta-amyrin, taraxerol, andepifriedelanol had similar binding areas totamoxifen on ER?. Lappadilactone had hydrogen bond with Tyr526 and benperidol had hydrogen bond with Trp383 on ER?. Conclusions:Lappadilactone and benperidol have stronger binding affinities than tamoxifen and they have hydrogen bond with ER?, but not in active sites of ER?. Therefore, lappadilactone and benperidol may have ability to inhibit ER? activities computationally. Keywords: Estrogen receptor ?, molecular docking, phytocemistry, tamoxifen.

Abstract

Introduction: Lactate dehydrogenase A (LDHA) is an enzyme that catalyzes pyruvate into lactate. LDHA plays an important role in promotion of cancer cells growth through increasing aerobic glycolysis. Because LDHA has a central role in energy metabolism, it become a molecular target for development of anticancer drug. This was a biocomputational study that aimed to identify Indonesian herbal compounds which became a potential candidate of LDHA inhibitor via molecular docking analysis. Methods: Samples in this study were Indonesian herbal compounds that met the following criteria: (1) Registered on Database Herbal Indonesia, (2) had three-dimensional structure, and (3) met the criteria Lipinski rule of five. Oxamate used as a ligand standard and was validated using Autodock Vina software. Herbal compounds were also docked using the same program. Docking results were visualized using PyMOL software. LDHA inhibitor candidate is determined by comparing herbal compounds and standard ligand in terms of binding energy, binding site and Lipinski criteria. Result: Oxamate interacting with LDHA had -4.26 0.06 kcal / mol binding energy and bound to six amino acid residues at Gln 99, Arg 105, Asn 137, Arg 168, His 192, and Thr 247. A lower binding energy was observed in 23 herbal compounds and these compounds bound to LDHA at least five amino acid residues like Oxamate. Herbal compounds Phaseolic Acid, Sebacic Acid, D (-) - Fructose, Suberic Acid and Pimelic Acid interacted with amino acid residues of LDHA as same as Oxamate. The other herbal compounds interacted with less or more than six amino acid residues of LDHA. Based on characteristics of five herbal compounds, Phaseolic Acid, Sebacic Acid and Suberic Acid were probably the best candidates of LDHA inhibitor. Conclusion: Phaseolic Acid, Sebacic Acid and Suberic Acid become biocomputationally the best LDHA inhibitor. Enzymatic assays are needed to investigate whether or not all these compounds can inhibit LDHA enzyme activity. Keywords : Cancer, Inhibitor LDHA, Molecular Docking, Herbal Indonesia
