Abstract

Avian influenza virus is poultry viral disease, which causes high economic losses. Various efforts have been made to control the disease. One effort is required screening fast and precise diagnostic test. This study was aimed to determine the potential of rapid test kit of AIV/H5 Anigen Rapid Test for the detection of AI virus types A and subtype H5 in the field. Some tests were carried out, e.g.: the potential test, cross-reaction test, sensitivity and specificity test. Potency test was done to evaluate potential of detection limits of the kit, by having the test of serial dilution of AI virus positive control. Cross-reaction test was done to detect antigens other than AI virus H5N1, e.g.:  IB virus of Massachuset strain, IBV strain 4-91, Newcastle Disease virus, and Escherichia coli. Sensitivity and specificity test were applied to the filed samples which clinically and laboratory were confirmed as H5N1 positive. To confirm the result of rapid test was then being done by reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction. Based on these results it can be concluded that, Anigen Kit AIV/H5 Ag Rapid Test can detect antigen-containing samples having AI virus HA titer up to 26of type A virus, and up to 25 for subtype H5 virus. Anigen Kit AIV/H5 Ag Rapid Test showed no cross-reactions with Infectious Bronchitis virus, Newcastle Disease virus, and Escherichia coli. Anigen A Rapid Test Kit AIV Ag showed a sensitivity of 50% and specificity of 100%, while Anigen Ag Rapid Test Kit AIV/H5 showed a sensitivity of 25% and specificity is 100%.

Abstract

Here we describe a novel method of using green fluorescence protein (GFP) as a reporter gene for early detection of an integrated T­DNA containing the orchid flowering gene, PaFT1 (Phalaenopsis aphrodite Flowering locus T1) in the tobacco genome. Functional assays that report the presence of exogenous DNA early in development are especially useful in plants where the desired phenotype is only apparent after long periods of vegetative growth. The objective of this study is to establish a method for detecting an inserted Phalaenopsis orchid flowering gene and examining its function in tobacco. The p35S::PaFT1­ 35S::GFP construct was introduced into Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain EHA101. Transformed tobacco leaves were cultured on MS medium with addition of 1 mgL-1 NAA+3 mgL-1 BAP+50 mgL-1 Kanamycin+300 mgL-1 timentin for selection. Results showed bright green GFP fluorescent signals in 11 out of 15 (73%) tobacco leaf cells at a 2­month time point after transformation. GFP and PaFT1 fragments were amplified in genomic PCR using GFP and PaFT1 specific primers. The accumulated PaFT1 transcripts were observed in 3 month­old transgenic tobacco plants containing p35S::PaFT1­35S::GFP. Green florescence was observed only in the transgenic plants at the 5 month­old stage but not in the wild type controls.

Abstract

Marine sponge associated fungi are known as potential source of metabolites with various biological activities. Natural pigment is one of metabolite which produced by microorgisms. Several researches reported the antimicrobial activity from natural pigment. Unfortunatelly there are lack of information about marine fungi natural pigment and its producer. The aims of this research were to identify yellow pigmented Indonesian marine sponge-associated fungi, to extract the pigment, and to study the antimicrobial activity of the pigment against clinical MDR bacteria and clinical pathogenic fungi. Sponge associated-fungus isolate MT23 was successfully identified as Trichoderma parareesei. The fungal pigment could be extracted only in methanol with yield 6,22±0,29%. The pigment could inhibitted S. typhi and E. coli MDR strains. The biggest antibacterial activity was shown by concentration 1000µg/mL against S. typhi with inhibition zone was 4.03±0.06 mm.

Abstract

In this work, we have reported an enzymatic activity and biochemical properties of extracellular proteases from Chromohalobacter salexigens BKL5 and Micrococcus luteus 11A. C. salexigens BKL5 and M. luteus 11A were previously isolated from Bledug Kuwu mud volcano and dietary industry wastewater treatment, respectively. Both bacterial strains were able to produce extracellular proteases, when grown on minimal agar medium supplemented with 1% of skim milk. Proteolytic indexes of C. salexigens BKL5 and M. luteus 11A were 2.5±0.14 and 2.9±0.42, respectively. Both extracellular proteases exhibited optimum enzymatic activity at pH 7, with specific activity of C. salexigens BKL5 was 13.3% higher than that of M. luteus 11A. Optimum temperature for enzymatic activity of both proteases was 45°C. Metal cofactor preferences assay showed that extracellular protease from C. salexigens BKL5 preferred Zn2+, meanwhile extracellular protease from M. luteus 11A mainly preferred Ca2+ ion. Metal cofactor preferences assay also suggested that crude extracellular protease from C. salexigens BKL5 was categorized as metalloprotease, meanwhile crude extracellular protease of M. luteus 11A was common neutral protease. The enzymatic stability assay against various salt concentrations showed that crude extracellular protease from C. salexigens BKL5 was more stable than that of M. luteus 11A.

Abstract

Indonesia has a wide range of rice cultivars and pigments. This rice can be used as a source of phytochemical compounds for cancer prevention. This research aims to analyze the cytotoxic activities of the ethanolic extract of black rice bran of 4 local cultivars i.e. ‘Cempo Ireng’, ‘Woja Laka’, ‘Toraja’ and ‘IR­64’ (white rice) on  cancer cells and to determine the compounds groups of those extracts. First step, rice bran was extracted with ethanol. This extract was applied to Raji (a human Burkitt Lymphoma cancer), HepG2 (a human liver cancer), and Vero (a nonhuman cell line) cells in order to measure the cytotoxic activities by using MTT assay. To determine descriptively the compounds groups of phenolics, flavonoids, terpenoids, steroids, and alkaloids the thin layer chromatography method was performed. The IC50 value was analyzed quantitatively by using probit analysis. Results showed that the IC50 values of ethanolic extract of rice bran ‘Woja Laka’, ‘Toraja’, ‘Cempo Ireng’ and ‘IR 64’ on HepG2 cells were 857.23±99.19; 1,896.55±83,8; 1,494.47±87.81 and 727.89±145,97 µg/ml respectively. The IC50 on Raji cells were 816.61±85.31; 1,079.93±28.31; 1,627.82; ±119.82, and 769.33±61.43 µg/ml respectively. The IC50 on Vero cells were 1,295.2±37; 1,232.07±165.51; 1,874.14±169.56, and 724.4±122.79 µg/ml respectively. The ethanolic extracts of rice bran from four cultivars contain phenolics, flavonoids, terpenoids, and steroids. However, alkaloids could not be detected. The variety of rice cultivars indicates the variation of cytotoxic activities on cancer cells. The ethanolic extracts of rice bran from those four rice cultivars contain similar kinds of organic compounds groups but vary in the Rf values.

Abstract

Brazilein performs anti­cancer activities on several cancer cells and potentially inhibits metastasis. The aims of this study is to observe the synergistic cytotoxic and migration inhibitory effect of brazilein combined with cisplatin on 4T1 breast cancer cells. Under MTT assay, we found that brazilein revealed cytotoxic effect on 4T1 cells in a dose­dependent manner (IC50=50 ± 0.3 µM). Combination of brazilein and cisplatin showed synergistic effect (CI=0.72). Flowcytometry analysis on the cell cycle progression showed that single treatment of 25 µM brazilein induced G2/M­phase accumulation, 12.5 µM cisplatin induced S­phase accumulation, while combination of brazilein and cisplatin induced S­phase and G2/Mphase accumulation. Combination of brazilein and cisplatin induced apoptosis higher than that of the single treatments. Based on wound healing assay, 12.5 µM brazilein and its combination with 6.25 µM cisplatin inhibited cells migration. Immunoblotting and gelatin zymography analysis showed that combination of brazilein and cisplatin inhibited the expression level of Rac1 and MMP9 proteins. Based on these results, we conclude that brazilein enhanced cytotoxic activity of cisplatin and inhibited migration on 4T1 cells and potentially can be developed as an enhancing cytotoxic and antimetastasis agent.

Abstract

E545A is one of the point mutations, and its frequency is high in PIK3CA gene (3.8%), particularly breast cancer patients in Singapore (13.8%) and Mexico (11.5%). In addition to induce breast cancer, the mutation also caused resistance of anti-HER2 in HER2 cancer subtype. The tremendous effect of this mutation was not supported by affordable detection method. This study aimed to develop a feasible and sensitive method of E545A detection. The developing method used Tm and Ct to identify samples. Based on optimization, the best condition was obtained at optimization 2 at annealing temperature of 65°C. At this condition, Tm and Ct of each sample were (a) exon 9 (78.4°C and 13.005±0.007) and (b) E5454A (80.4°C and 10.07±0.1). This method also demonstrated good precision as observed in variance coefficient of intra and inter assay (0). Thus, method for E5454A detection mutation was successfully developed.
