Abstract

Background: Breast cancer is on the first or second most malignancy in many places around the world. The incidence of breast cancer was increasing, also in Indonesia. Prevention and treatment of breast cancer have not been satisfactory, since patients and medical practitioners are searching for other therapeutic and preventive agents. Salvia miltiorrhizae Bunge roots is one of the therapeutics agent used in traditional medicine have been studied in foreign country.Objective: To prove the p53 and Bcl2 expression in C3H mice mammary adenocarcinoma using multilevel doses of the Salvia miltiorrhizae Bunge roots extract. Methods :The study is a randomized post-test only controlled group design. A total of 18 adenocarcinoma mice, divided into 3 groups. The first group was administered with 60mg/KgBW/day and the second group was given by 180mg/KgBW/day, for 21 days. All mice were terminated on day 22nd. The p53 and Bcl2 expressions were analyzed using Allred score, statistically analized by Kruskal Wallis followed by Post-Hoc Mann Whitney U test.Results :Immunohistochemistry staining shows the p53 expressions have been increased between groups, but Bcl2 were decreased. The Kruskal-Wallis and Post-Hoc Mann Whitney U test are significantly difference between groups.Conclusion :All of the p53 and Bcl2 expressions between groups are significantly differences.

Abstract

Background : Rusip consumption can change the microbial composition of the digestive system. Microbial changes due to rusip consumption that is measured by lactic acid bacteria count has not been conducted.Objective : The purpose of the study was to analyze the effect of rusip consumption to the number of lactic acid bacteria in the gastrointestinal tract.Methods : Experimental study with post test only control group design using twelve Rattus novergicus Sprague dawley strains aged 2-2.5 months which were divided into 2 groups. Rats adapted for a week, then they were given rusip 5.1 mg/g body weight for 14 days. Cecal content were taken on the 22th day to be analysed for the lactic acid bacteria count.Results : The number of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) in the group given rusip was lower compared to the control group, but not significantly different (p=0.180). Weight gain was greater in the treatment group compared to the control group. The given group tends to have more weight in cecal content and lower pH compared to the control group.Conclusion : Rusip consumption does not increase the number of lactic acid bacteria in gastrointestinal tract.

Abstract

Background: Control of pulmonary TB is getting more and more complicated as the number of patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) is increasing. The increasing prevalence of DM is followed by the increasing prevalence of pulmonary TB. Diabetes Mellitus patients have 4,7 times higher risk to develop pulmonary TB compared to patients without DM, since DM can increase the frequency and severity of an infection, including pulmonary TB.Aim: To analyze macrophage activity (phagocytosis, intracellular killing, and TNF-α synthesis) of TB-DM patients.Method: The research is an experimental study using a PBMC cultured sample from TB-DM patient's which undergo observation of macrophage activity (phagocytic, intracellular killing and TNF-α synthesis). The data were taken from microscopic observation of TB-DM patients, colony growth of viable Mycobacterium tuberculosis and the TNF-α level secreted by macrophages.Result: Microscopic observation showed that there are less amount of phagocytosed M. tuberculosis (in macrophage/intracellular level) and there is a little amount of formed vacuoles and giant cells. Furthermore, macrophages in TB-DM patients secrete low level of TNF- α, and there are more viable M. tuberculosis from this macrophage.Conclusions: Macrophages of TB-DM patients are less activated, with reduced phagocytic activity (due to the intrinsic defect of PMN) and reduced antigen presenting activity of phagocytes toward M. tuberculosis. Therefore, there is a need for a further study focused on macrophage activity enhancement on TB-DM patients against M. tuberculosis infection in DM patients.Keywords: macrophage, TB-DM, phagocytosis, intracellular killing, TNF- α.

Abstract

Disorders of sex development (DSD) is defined by congenital conditions in which development of chromosomal, gonadal, or anatomical sex is atypical, while in clinical practice this term means any abnormality of the external genitalia. DSD patients have been managed by a multidisciplinary gender team in our center as collaboration between Dr. Kariadi province referral hospital and Faculty of Medicine Diponegoro University. Diagnosis should be established by specific physical examination hormonal, chromosomal and DNA studies; and imaging for most of the cases depending on indication.Since 2004 the involvement of molecular and cytogenetic analysis so far can diagnosed many of the DSD cases. Most of the genetically proven cases were Congenital Adrenal hyperplasia, Androgen Insensitivity syndrome and sex chromosomal DSD that lead abnormal gonadal development.  Many of them remain undiagnosed, further testing such as advanced DNA study should be carried out in collaboration with other center in overseas.The novel genes were found in some cases that contributed for the management of DSD.  Information for medical professionals, patients, family members and community about the availability and necessity of DSD diagnosis should be delivered to improve DSD management and patient quality of life.
