Abstract

Background: Thalassemia-β patients have erythrocyte damage that requires blood transfusion treatment. Blood transfusion treatment that is undergone has an impact on the condition of iron overload in the body. The condition of iron overload will result in oxidative stress and organ damage that requires additional therapyObjective: aimed to compare the effectiveness of turmeric and kalmegh extract doses against biochemical parameters and histopathological features of iron-induced liver Rattus Norvegicus.Methods: This study used a True-experiment research design with a post-test-only control group. A total of 30 rats were used and divided into six treatment groups, normal, deferiprone drugs, turmeric, and kalmegh extracts 100mg/KgBW, 200mg/KgBW, and 400mg/KgBW. Malondialdehyde, catalase, superoxide dismutase, and ferritin are used as biochemical parameters and hepatic histopathology is documented.Results: The results showed that there were significant improvements and differences in iron-induced rats.Conclusion: The study also showed that turmeric and kalmegh extracts had similar effects to deferiprone.

Abstract

Background: The global prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) continues to rise, posing significant health challenges. T2DM is characterized by insulin resistance and often leads to hyperglycemia and oxidative stress, which increase the risk of complications. Natural products like noni (Morinda citrifolia) and honey have been studied individually for their antidiabetic properties.Objective: This study investigates the combination of noni and honey to regulate blood glucose, improve insulin sensitivity, and enhance antioxidant activity in diabetic models..Methods: The study involved 35 male Wistar rats divided into seven groups, including healthy controls, diabetic controls, and various treatment groups receiving noni fruit juice, honey, or their combinations at different dosages. Type 2 diabetes was induced using streptozotocin-nicotinamide (STZ-NA). Treatments of Noni and Honey were administered via gavage every day for 28 days. Blood glucose and SOD levels were measured using enzymatic assay methods, whereas insulin concentrations were determined through ELISA (Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay).Results: The combination of noni and honey significantly reduced fasting blood glucose levels (p < 0.0001), with the highest reduction observed in the MCH3 group. Insulin levels and HOMA-B were significantly increased, while HOMA-IR was decreased in treatment groups, particularly in MCH3. SOD activity was notably enhanced, indicating improved antioxidant status.Conclusion: The combination of noni fruit juice and honey exhibits synergistic hypoglycemic and antioxidant effects in diabetic rats, with the highest dose (MCH3) showing the most significant therapeutic potential. These findings support the potential use of noni and honey as complementary treatments in managing type 2 diabetes and its associated metabolic complications.

Abstract

Background: The melanocortin-4 receptor (MC4R) gene regulates energy balance and food intake. The rs17782313 variant has been linked to altered homeostasis and eating behavior, and may also affect anthropometric and body composition responses during Ramadan fasting.Objective: To examine the effects of Ramadan fasting on anthropometric parameters, body composition, and macronutrient intake across different MC4R genotypes in adults.Methods: Thirty-five subjects were genotyped and grouped into recessive (TT, n=15) and dominant (TC+CC, n=20) allele carriers. Anthropometric and body composition measurements, dietary intake (SQ-FFQ), and physical activity (IPAQ-SF) were assessed before, during, and after Ramadan. Genetic data for rs17782313 were obtained from a prior investigation. Repeated Measures ANCOVA, adjusted for energy intake and physical activity, evaluated genotype and time effects.Results: The recessive group (TT) showed higher values than the dominant group (TC+CC), with significant differences in body weight, BMI, hip circumference, and visceral fat across all time points (p<0.05). Waist circumference differed significantly during and after Ramadan, while BMR differed only before fasting (p<0.05). Macronutrient intake and physical activity did not differ significantly, although protein and fat intake changes post-Ramadan were notable (p<0.05). A significant time–activity interaction was found for body weight (p=0.041). TT carriers experienced greater anthropometric benefits from Ramadan fasting compared to TC+CC carriers.Conclusion: Ramadan fasting significantly influences anthropometric parameters, body composition, and macronutrient intake across MC4R genotypes. Greater responses were observed in recessive carriers (TT), although fasting outcomes were also shaped by nutrition and physical activity. These findings highlight the interplay of genetic and environmental factors in energy regulation during Ramadan.
