Abstract

Pitaya belongs to the family Cactaceae and the genus Hylocereus. It is essential todevelop tissue culture protocols according to the appropriate variety to spread pitayacommercial production and ensure healthy sapling production. This study aimed todetermine the best plant growth regulators (PGRs) in the micropropagation process,and their effects on different pitaya cultivars were evaluated. Shoots of different pitayacultivars were cultured in Murashige and Skoog (MS) basal medium supplementedwith Indole-3-butyric (IBA), 6-benzyl amino purine (BAP), and gibberellic acid(GA3). The highest micropropagation coefficient was determined in Physical Graffitivariety cultured in MS medium supplemented with 2 mg/L BAP. The general evaluation based on the variety determined that the best micropropagation was in the RoyalRed variety. In in vitro rooting studies, the best rooting variety was Royal Red(54.47%), followed by Siam Red (50.33%), Physical Graffiti (47.75%), and SeoulKitchen (44.82%). It was determined that the Royal Red variety is grown in R2 (MSmedium supplemented with 1 mg/l IBA) medium gave the best results in all criteriaof shoot length (4.28 cm), root length (6.45 cm), and root formation on the face(74.48%). It was envisioned that these differences between the micropropagation,growth, and rooting of the cultivars used in the studies resulted from the cultivar characteristics.Keywords: Pitaya, In vitro, Micropropagation, Royal Red, Seoul Kitchen, Siam Red,Physical Graffiti

Abstract

Vitamin D (25-Hydroxyvitamin D3 [25(OH)D3]) has an important role in the immune system. This study aimed to assess the relationship between 25-Hydroxyvitamin D3 and disease activity in Indonesian children with Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA) during pandemic Covid-19. A 12-week randomized control trial was undertaken at Saiful Anwar Hospital between June and September 2021. JIA patients are divided into two groups. The control group (CG), without supplementation, and the treatment group (TG) got a high dose of oral cholecalciferol 2000 IU/day. Serum levels of 25(OH)D3 were measured using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Comparison between serum 25(OH)D3 levels and JIA subtypes, peripheral blood Creactive protein (CRP), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), and Juvenile Arthritis Disease Activity Score (JADAS-27 Score) were analyzed using SPSS. There was a significant increase in serum 25(OH)D3 levels in treatment group (mean: 27.38 ± 6.39 ng/ml vs 42.26 ± 10.95 ng/ml; P=0.000). The JADAS-27 score significantly decrease in treatment group (14.60 ± 4.04 vs 6.24 ± 1.96; p= 0.000). Serum 25(OH)D3 showed a significant correlation with the JADAS-27 score. The levels of 25(OH)D3 are significantly decreased in children with JIA. Decreased 25(OH)D3 levels may be associated with the etiopathogenesis of JIA. Vitamin D levels have correlations with disease activity. Adjunctive treatment of cholecalciferol improves the disease activity in JIA patients.   Keywords: Disease activity, JIA, Pandemic Covid-19, Vitamin D

Abstract

The present study aims to investigate the phytochemical profiles, in vitro antioxidant and antiproliferative properties of methanol and 70% ethanol extracts of Camellia mistletoe. Both extracts were analyzed for contents of total flavonoid, total carotenoid and L-ascorbic acid, and antioxidant properties such as scavenging capacities (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl, O2- and NOž), ferrous ion chelating and reducing power. MTT assay was used to assess the antiproliferative properties against human cancer cell lines. The results showed that the methanol extracts of Camellia mistletoe contained higher total flavonoids (16237 mg rutin equivalents/100 g) and carotenoids (49175 mg/100g) with higher DPPH (IC50 = 0.6 mg/mL), superoxide (IC50 = 0.6 mg/mL), nitric oxide (IC50 = 0.5 mg/mL) radical scavenging and reducing power (IC50 = 1.1 mg/mL) activities than those of ethanol extracts (p < 0.05). In addition, methanol extracts showed much higher antiproliferative activity against A375 (IC50 = 118.1 μg/mL) and HCT116 (IC50 = 148.4 μg/mL) cells than ethanol extracts whereas higher inhibitory effects of MCF7 (IC50 = 139.9 μg/mL), Hela (IC50 = 127.1 μg/mL) and HepG2 (IC50 = 84.2 μg/mL) cell proliferation in the ethanol extracts of Camellia mistletoe. The data from this study suggest that Camellia mistletoe is a potential source of phytochemical compounds with antioxidant and antiproliferative properties.

Abstract

CD4+CD25+FOXP3+ is a regulatory T cell that plays a role in the body's tolerant system to control activated effector cells. T regulatory plays an important role as a trigger for tumor progressiveness, where an increase in the amount of T regulatory FOXP3 in the tumor state correlates with a poor prognosis. Breast cancer is a type of cancer that tends to increase every year. The purpose of this study was to study the influence of a combination of Phyllanthus urinaria and Catharanthus roseus plant extracts on CD4+CD25+FOXP3+ modulation. Mice was injected subcutaneously with the carcinogen compound DMBA for six weeks at 0.015 mg/kg weight. The study design was conducted using a complete random design (RAL) which was divided into six groups namely healthy (normal) control, cancer control (DMBA injection), Cisplatin and a combination of extracts with three different doses (dose 1 (Phyllanthus urinaria 500 weight and Catharanthus roseus 75mg/kg weight) and dose 3 (Phyllanthus urinary 2000mg/kg weight and Catharanthus roseus 375mg/kg weight). The relative number of T regulatory cells is measured using flow cytometry analysis. The measurements were made using the Cell Quest ProTM program. Statistics analyze using one way ANOVA (p<0.05). Tukey HSD analysis with SPSS 26 software used to analyze real differences between treatments. A relative increase in CD4+CD25+FOXP3+ occurs in cancer control. While the decrease occurred in every treatment except in the dose group 1. The optimal dose to reduce CD4+CD25+FOXP3+ amounts significantly occurred in the dose group 3. This indicates the influence of a combination of Phyllanthus urinaria and Catharanthus roseus on CD4+CD25+FOXP3+ differentiation. Keywords: breast cancer, Catharanthus roseus, CD4+CD25+FOXP3+, Phyllanthus urinaria,

Abstract

Brown Planthopper is one of the economically important rice pests that cause several crop failures in Asian countries. Unfortunately, Brown Planthopper could migrate to neighboring countries to generate interpopulation breeding, thus further increasing the gene flow and spreading insecticide resistance. This research aimed to understand the genetic differentiation of Brown Planthopper among all Asian populations. This study used two COI sequences from Malang, Indonesia, and 25 sequences from GenBank to analyze the genetic structure with phylogenetic tree and haplotype network. The uncorrected pairwise distance result showed that the Brown Planthopper population in Asia has a relatively low genetic distance. We also found that the Brown Planthopper population was clustered based on the geographical region of South Asia, East Asia-Mainland South East Asia, and Indonesia. Thus, we concluded that the migration of Brown Planthopper was limited to East Asia and Mainland South East Asia only. Further studies are needed to confirm the migration route of Brown Planthopper in South Asia and Southeast AsiaKeywords: BPH, Genetic differentiation, Haplotype network, Phylogenetic
