Abstract

GajahMungkur Reservoir is a freshwater ecosystem thatis located6kmsouthofWonogiri Regency,CentralJavaProvince. Zooplankton is the primary consumer in the food chain of aquatic ecosystems. One of the common zooplankton found in freshwater ecosystem is copepod. Copepod is sensitive organism and play an important role as bioindicatator of water quality. The aimed of this study was to investigate the copepods diversity in Gajah Mungkur Reservoir. The method applied to this study is exploration and application of purposive sampling techniques in sampling.  Copepods were collected from three different station, namely Station 1 (fishing area), Station 2 (tourism area), and Station 3 (fish cage area or keramba). The abiotic parameters were found to be varied on each station. Results showed that Gajah Mungkur Reservoir has moderately diverse copepods species with the average of diversity index 1.21. There were 7 species of copepods found in Gajah Mungkur Reservoir which mostly dominated by Mesocyclops sp., especially in Station 1 (fishing area). Meanwhile Microcyclops sp. was only found in Station 3 (fish cage area or keramba), suggesting that this species has a potential as bioindicator in Gajah Mungkur Reservoir. This study suggest that changes in physicochemical parameters might influence the diversity and abundance of copepod in Gajah Mungkur Reservoir.

Abstract

Red spinach (Amaranthus tricolor L.) is a commercially valuable vegetable known for its high nutritional content and immune-boosting properties, making it popular among the Indonesian population. However, red spinach cultivation in Indonesia is still relatively low and inconsistent, necessitating efforts to enhance its cultivation. One potential approach is through in vitro culture techniques. This study aimed to investigate the impact of applying mung bean sprout [Vigna radiata (L.) R. Wilczek] extract on Murashige and Skoog medium, focusing on identifying the most effective concentration for in vitro growth of red spinach explants. The experimental design employed a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with five concentration levels: 0%, 5%, 10%, 15%, and 20%. Each concentration was replicated five times, with each replication consisting of five red spinach seeds in individual culture bottles. Data analysis involved Levene's test, one-way ANOVA, and Tukey's Honestly Significant Difference (HSD) test at a significance level of 5%. The findings revealed that the application of mung bean sprout extract significantly influenced the height of plantlets, leaf count, root length, fresh weight, and soluble carbohydrate content of red spinach. The most effective concentration for promoting red spinach explant growth was determined to be 5%.

Abstract

Black Soldier Fly Larvae (BSFL) oil is currently an insect oil that potentially replaces fish oils in animal feed. However, there are limited information on its benefits and nutritional comparison of BSLF oil to fish oil. Present study was to evaluate the benefits of BSFL oil in animal feed and compare the BSFL to Fish oil. Collected data of BSFL oil in the animal feed and its physiological effects was obtained from several articles of  reputable journal and compiled into a table. Meanwhile, BSFL was reared and extract their oil to determine the fatty acid composition and compare to fish oil. The current study indicated that BSFL oil can be used in various animal feeds, such as aquafeed, broiler feed, and pets. The BSFL oil which is included in the feed showed an improvement in growth and other physiological responses of animals. Meanwhile, in comparison to fish oil, BSFL oil has a similar composition of fatty acids such as Omega 3 and Omega 6. Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA; 20:5n3) is detected in the BSFL oil, though the quantity is much lower than in fish oil.  Further, the BSFL oil also contains lauric acid. In conclusion, BSFL oil can be an alternative feed ingredient to substitute fish oil and has beneficial to the growth and physiological responses of the animal.

Abstract

Hepatotoxicity is a condition characterized by liver cell damage caused by toxic chemicals. This article aims to explore the effects of compounds that contribute to mitigating hepatotoxicity, focusing on in vitro studies, particularly primary cell culture. In this systematic review, we conducted searches in the PubMed, Science Direct, and Google Scholar databases to find articles published between 2008 and 2022. Several active compounds were identified, including N-Benzylpiperazine (BZP), 1-(3-trifluoromethylphenyl) piperazine (TFMPP), antimycin A, coenzyme Q (CoQ) substrates, the antioxidant Vitamin C, L-glutamine (Gln), Nimesulide, Luteolin, glutathione, angelica sinensis polysaccharide (ASP) from Angelica sinensis, ammonium glycyrrhizin (CAG) from Glycyrrhiza glabra, L-arginine, silymarin from Silybum marianum, and glucurolactone (GA). However, only six compounds were shown to have remedial and treatment effects on hepatotoxicity and utilized primary cell culture with MTT Assay. These six compounds are Luteolin, Glutathione (GSH), Angelica sinensis polysaccharide (ASP) from Angelica sinensis, Ammonium glycyrrhizin (CAG) from Glycyrrhiza glabra, Antimycin A (AA), and Glutamine (Gln). The mechanism of action of these compounds involves preventing further damage to liver cells and repairing cells that have already been damaged. In summary, these compounds play a significant role in addressing hepatotoxicity caused by toxic substances and drugs.

Abstract

The modern lifestyle despite its comfort has made cancer a second leading public health problem, following cardiovascular disease. As chemotherapeutic has many side effects including resistance, recent attention has focused on plants which may provide a good opportunity for complementary cancer treatment. Several studies have begun to focus on metabolomic research in order to discover the mechanisms of action of diverse medicinal plants, investigate biomarkers, and comprehend cancer progression at metabolic rates. This study aims to analyze and highlight related metabolomic investigations in medicinal plants that demonstrate the potential of biomarker compounds and their processes in cancer disease. The research methodology uses a literature review that is compiled from many connected journals. According to the findings, bioactive substances present in medicinal plants can be used as biomarkers to disrupt the metabolism of enzymes, transporters, and signaling pathways in cancer cells. Utilized analytical platforms include HPLC, GC-MS, FTIR and NMR. Statistical analysis employs the Anova, PCA, and OPLS-DA methods. Finally, we reviewed biomarkers of medicinal plants and metabolomic pathways, with the result that anticancer compounds may exert their activity by various methods affecting DNA replication, cell cycle, migration and apoptosis.

Abstract

hyperglycemia causes a degenerative syndrome that involves an inflammatory process with an increase in certain proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines which in the process will activate B cells to produce immunoglobulins through several mechanisms. One of the interesting mechanisms is the mechanism via the MyD88 pathway. Objectives: to explore the role of MyD88 adapter protein in Toll-like receptor activation and B cell maturation under hyperglycemia conditions. Methods: a literature review was done to answer the study objectives. Results: Class switching process under hyperglycemia conditions involves activation of NFkB through the inflammatory MyD88-dependent pathway to trigger the expression of TLR and B cell maturation and proliferation as well as antibody production. The MyD88 adapter protein is a protein formed by stimulation of pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-6 and plays a role in the continuation of signals from the TLR and IL-1 pathways. Mature B cell stimulation induces 2 genetic changes in the Ig gene locus, called somatic hypermutation (SHM) and class switch recombination (CSR) to produce antibodies. Changes in immunoglobulin genes occur related to changes in certain DNA segments at the locus of genes where CSR occurs, this gene change requires the role of AID (activated-induced cytidine deaminase) in DNA cleavage. AID in mature B cells is activated by proinflammatory cytokines via induction of NfKB activation via the inflammatory MyD88-dependent pathway. Conclusion: Toll-like receptor activation plays a crucial role in B cell maturation activated by pro-inflammatory cytokine via MyD88 dependent-NFkB activation.
