Background: Plant-phenolics and flavonoids, including gallic acid, quercetin and rutin, are considered as safe inhibitors for α-glucosidase. This study aimed to compare antioxidant and α-glucosidase inhibitory activities of gallic acid (GA), quercetin (QUE) and rutin (RUT).Materials and Methods: Pure compounds of GA, QUE, and RUT were used. Their antioxidant and inhibitory activity on α-glucosidase were investigated spectroscopically, including their kinetic analysis and interaction mechanism by docking simulation.Results: All the tested compounds (GA, QUE, and RUT) showed good antioxidant activity better than the standards ascorbic acid (AA) and butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), with QUE showing the highest antioxidant activity based on 2,2-diphenyl1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity. Based on their reducing properties, the activities of the compounds follow the following order: AA > GA > BHT > QUE > RUT. Both GA and RUT induced a competitive type of inhibition, with activities stronger than acarbose (IC50 = 823 μg/mL), whereas QUE inhibited in a mixed type manner. The IC50 of GA, QUE, and RUT were 220.12, 65.52, and 224.55 μg/mL respectively. The results obtained from molecular docking indicate that all compounds have affinity in the active site pocket of α-glucosidase, with the hydrogen bond being the major force involved in each compound binding to the enzyme.Conclusion: In conclusion, QUE has better antioxidant and α-glucosidase inhibitory activity than GA and RUT. This work provides insights into the interactions between GA, QUE, and RUT and α-glucosidase.Keywords: docking, gallic acid, α-glucosidase, rutin, quercetin

Background: Endometriosis is a benign disease that has malignant properties such as genetic polymorphism, loss control of cell proliferation, infiltration, and local spread or to distant places. Several endometriosis studies linking endometrioma/ ovarian endometriosis with an increased risk of ovarian malignancy give rise to a transformation phenomenon of endometriotic cysts into malignancy. Bax is a pro apoptotic protein whose expression decreases in a malignancy. This decrease is related to the poor prognosis of endometrioma and ovarian carcinoma. This study was aimed to identify the expression and the difference of Bax expression between endometrioma and ovarian carcinoma.Materials and Methods: Fifty of paraffin blocks of endometrioma tissue and ovarian carcinoma (serous, mucinous, clear cell, and endometrioid type) were examined by immunohistochemical using Bondmax Full Automatic with specific monoclonal antibody to identify Bax expression. The difference of Bax expression score between endometrioma tissue and ovarian carcinoma was tested by Mann-Whitney test with significant value was set at p<0.05.Results: This study found that mean Bax expression score in endometrioma tissue and ovarian carcinoma was 3.88 and 3.72. No difference of Bax expression between endometrioma tissue and ovarian carcinoma (p>0.05). No difference of Bax expression between the clinical stages and histopathological types of ovarian carcinoma (p>0.05).Conclusion: There are no statistically significant difference in Bax protein expression in ovarian cancer and endometrioma.Keywords: Bax expression, endometrioma, ovarian carcinoma, apoptotic resistance

Background: Chronic exposure ultraviolet (UV)-B radiation causes reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation. Furthermore, ROS will induce the formation of malondialdehyde and increase matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-1 expression. One strategy against the free radicals effects is by consuming antioxidants. This study aims to analyze the antioxidants effect of red fruit oil (RFO) on MMP-1 expression and malondialdehyde levels due to exposure to UVB rays.Materials and Methods: Thirty male Wistar rats were divided into 5 groups. The P0 group was not given treatment, the P1 group was only exposed to UVB light, the P2 group was exposed to UVB light and given 0.5 mL/200 g body weight (BW) of RFO, the P3 group was exposed to UVB light and given 1 mL/200 g BW of RFO, and group P4 exposed to UVB rays and given 2 mL/200 g BW of RFO. Experimental animals would be examined for MMP-1 expression and malondialdehyde level. RFO would be identified with β-carotene and tocopherol content.Results: Beta-carotene and tocopherol were detected in RFO. RFO reduced significantly MMP-1 expression (p<0.05) in P2 group (0.73±1.27), P3 group (0.63±0.95), P4 group (9.56±20.97) compared group P1 (48.07±65.58). However, RFO did not reduce malondialdehyde levels (p>0.05).Conclusion: Our research demonstrates RFO containing tocopherol and β-carotene can reduce the MMP-1 expression, but does not affect malondialdehyde levels due to exposure to UVB rays. An effective dose that can reduce malondialdehyde levels and MMP-1 expression is 1 mL/200 g BW.Keywords: red fruit oil, antioxidant, skin, MMP-1 expression, malondialdehyde, UVB rays, photoaging

Obesity is a chronic, low degree systemic inflammatory status. Microarray examination shows a disturbance in the expression of cytokine, chemokine, complementary protein and half of the other acute phase components in obese patients. Adiponectin is the hormone that increases insulin sensitivity, while its level decreases under condition of fatty tissue enlargement that occurs in obesity. Excessive weight causes the adipocyte cells and adipose tissues produce various types of mediators. The inflammatory process is the main cause of metabolic diseases, and the main role of adipose tissue in the inflammatory process is determined by the production of pro-inflammatory mediators and anti-inflammatory mediators. Adiponectin has an important anti-inflammatory effect on obesity. Adiponectin has an important anti-inflammatory effect on obesity. Adiponectin works on macrophage and monocyte to inhibit the production of pro-inflammatory cytokine and increase the expression of interleukin (IL)-10 and IL-1 receptor antagonists. Adiponectin reduces induction of intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM)-1 and vascular cell adhesion molecule (VCAM)-1 endothelial adhesion by TNF-α or resistin. In obese patients, it is characterized by resistance to adiponectin alongside a decrease and the possibility of adiponectin loss in the receptor population in liver and muscles, leading to low adiponectin level.Keywords: adiponectin, obesity, inflammation

Background: Cuttlefish bone Xenograft, calcium phosphate (CaP)-based biomaterial graft, offers an alternative and has been accepted for osteoconductive and probable osteo-inductive attributes. This study aims to compare the bone healing potential between the bovine-derived (BHA) and cuttlefish bone-derived (CHA).Materials and Methods: The study compared osteoblast cell proliferation of 27 New Zealand rabbits in 2.5 mm bone defect made in the femoral bone. The samples were divided into three groups, which were control, BHA and CHA group. The chemical and physical characteristics of BHA and CHA were determined for the content of hydroxyapatite by FourierTransform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), then tested by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) to evaluate the porosity. In the end of the second week, histopathologic and immunohistochemistry examinations were performed to evaluate the amount of osteoblast and osteocalcin expression.Results: The FTIR, XRD and SEM analysis showed both BHA and CHA samples were hydroxyapatite according to Joint Committee on Powder Diffraction Standards (JCPDS). The CHA was significantly higher (297.22±19.772) compared to BHA (258.22±30.926) and control (131.67±34.213). Osteocalcin expression in CHA (7.82±2.230) compared to BHA (6.09±3.724) and control (4.07±3.606), was not significant (p>0.05). Conclusion: CHA group has the highest osteoblast cell proliferation and osteocalcin expression, meaning has a good potential as future source of bone graft.Keywords: cuttlefish bone, bovine, bone graft, osteoblast cell

This study aims to compare the bone healing potential between the bovine-derived (BHA) and cuttlefish bone-derived (CHA).Materials and Methods: The study compared osteoblast cell proliferation of 27 New Zealand rabbits in 2.5 mm bone defect made in the femoral bone. The samples were divided into three groups, which were control, BHA and CHA group. The chemical and physical characteristics of BHA and CHA were determined for the content of hydroxyapatite by FourierTransform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), then tested by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) to evaluate the porosity. In the end of the second week, histopathologic and immunohistochemistry examinations were performed to evaluate the amount of osteoblast and osteocalcin expression.Results: The FTIR, XRD and SEM analysis showed both BHA and CHA samples were hydroxyapatite according to Joint Committee on Powder Diffraction Standards (JCPDS). The CHA was significantly higher (297.22±19.772) compared to BHA (258.22±30.926) and control (131.67±34.213). Osteocalcin expression in CHA (7.82±2.230) compared to BHA (6.09±3.724) and control (4.07±3.606), was not significant (p>0.05). Conclusion: CHA group has the highest osteoblast cell proliferation and osteocalcin expression, meaning has a good potential as future source of bone graft.Keywords: cuttlefish bone, bovine, bone graft, osteoblast cell","PeriodicalId":53387,"journal":{"name":"MCBS Molecular and Cellular Biomedical Sciences","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74601146","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
Background: A pressure ulcer (PU) is localized injury to the skin and/or underlying tissue usually over a bony prominence, as a result of pressure, or pressure in combination with sharp surface. Several studies have found that PU is also a common problem in the pediatric population. Infection at PU sites is the most common complication, where PU can host resistant microorganisms and can turn into a local infection that is a source of bacteremia in hospital patients. This study aims to determine the most common bacteria and antimicrobial susceptibility at the site of PU in pediatric patients that serve as baseline data in Haji Adam Malik Hospital.Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study was carried out in July-December 2017, involving 30 PU pediatric patients. For each subject, swab from ulcers were cultured in microbial laboratory to determine the microbial pattern and antimicrobial susceptibility.Results: The most common age group was 0-3 (53.3%), the highest gender was male (60%), the most common type was type 2 (46.7%), the main location was occipital (30%) and the most common undelying diseases were hydrocephalus (16.6%). The most common microbial pattern in PU pediatric patients is Acinetobacter baumannii (40%). The highest sensitivity is vancomycine for gram positive bacteria and amikacine for gram negative bacteria.Conclusion: The most common microbial pattern in PU pediatric patients in Haji Adam Malik Hospital is Acinetobacter baumannii (40%). The highest sensitivity is vancomycine for gram positive bacteria and amikacine for gram negative bacteria.Keywords: pressure ulcer, pediatric, microbial pattern, antimicrobial susceptibility

Background: Many studies had discovered that early onset severe preeclampsia (EO-PE) has worst maternal and neonatal outcome compared to late-onset type (LO-PE), related to its placental involvement. Severe preeclampsia was defined as newly onset severe hypertension developed after 20 weeks gestation in previously normal blood pressure women, with coexistence of proteinuria, or maternal organ or uteroplacental dysfunction. Hemeoxygenase-1 (HO-1) is an enzyme with multiple effect which is protective to pregnancy.Materials and Methods: The total study subjects were 40 pregnant women consisted of 10 EO-PE, 10 normal early onset pregnancy (EO-NP), 10 LO-PE, and 10 normal late onset pregnancy (LO-NP). As much as 5 cc of plasma from umbilical cord was taken as soon as the baby was born, and the HO-1 level was examined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The primary outcome were umbilical cord HO-1 level and neonatal composite morbidity (low Apgar score, low birthweight, length of stay >5 day, respiratory distress syndrome, jaundice and neonatal death).Results: The plasma level of HO-1 in EO-PE subjects were lower than EO-NP (0.96±0.37 ng/mL vs. 2.43±0.58 ng/mL, p<0.001). There were no significant differences in the level of HO-1 in LO-PE and LO-NP (2.18±1.07 ng/mL vs. 3.02±0.64 ng/mL, p=0.277). Plasma level of umbilical cord HO-1 of EO-PE patients was lower compared to LO-PE (0.96±0.37 ng/mL vs. 2.18±1.07 ng/mL, p=0.034). Neonatal outcome of EO-PE was worse than EO-NP (p=0.033), and LO-PE (p=0.003), while in LO-PE did not different with LO-NP (p=0.211).Conclusion: EO-PE is associated with lower plasma umbilical cord level of HO-1 and worse neonatal outcome compared to LO-PE. This indicating abnormal placental blood vessel development, placental ischemia in EO-PE, lead to reduced uteroplacental perfusion and significantly worse neonatal outcome compared to LO-PE.Keywords: severe preeclampsia, early onset preeclampsia, late onset preeclampsia, hemeoxygenase-1
背景:许多研究发现早发性重度先兆子痫(EO-PE)与晚发性(LO-PE)相比，其母婴预后最差，与胎盘受累有关。重度先兆子痫的定义是:先前血压正常的妇女在妊娠20周后出现新发重度高血压，并伴有蛋白尿或母体器官或子宫胎盘功能障碍。血红素加氧酶-1 (HO-1)是一种对妊娠具有多重保护作用的酶。材料与方法:共40例孕妇，其中EO-PE 10例，正常早发型妊娠(EO-NP) 10例，LO-PE 10例，正常晚发型妊娠(LO-NP) 10例。婴儿一出生就从脐带抽取多达5cc的血浆，并用酶联免疫吸附试验(ELISA)检测HO-1水平。主要结局为脐带HO-1水平和新生儿综合发病率(低Apgar评分、低出生体重、住院时间>5天、呼吸窘迫综合征、黄疸和新生儿死亡)。结果:EO-PE组血浆HO-1水平低于EO-NP组(0.96±0.37 ng/mL vs. 2.43±0.58 ng/mL, p<0.001)。LO-PE和LO-NP患者HO-1水平差异无统计学意义(2.18±1.07 ng/mL vs. 3.02±0.64 ng/mL, p=0.277)。EO-PE患者脐带HO-1血浆水平低于LO-PE(0.96±0.37 ng/mL vs. 2.18±1.07 ng/mL, p=0.034)。EO-PE组新生儿预后差于EO-NP组(p=0.033)和LO-PE组(p=0.003)，而LO-PE组与LO-NP组无显著差异(p=0.211)。结论:EO-PE与较低的血浆脐带HO-1水平和较差的新生儿结局有关。这表明胎盘血管发育异常，EO-PE中胎盘缺血，导致子宫胎盘灌注减少，与LO-PE相比新生儿结局明显更差。关键词:重度子痫前期，早发型子痫前期，晚发型子痫前期，血红素加氧酶-1
