Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk membuktikan ekstrak buah pare (Momordica charantia Linn.) terhadap kadar glukosa darah, sel penyusun pulau Langerhans dan sel Leydig tikus putih (Rattus norvegicus) hiperglikemia. Tikus putih sebanyak 25 ekor dibagi secara acak menjadi 5 kelompok. Induksi aloksan dengan dosis 150 mg/kgbb secara intraperitoneal untuk menimbulkan kerusakan pankreas dilakukan pada 5 kelompok perlakuan. Tiga kelompok perlakuan diterapi dengan berbagai dosis ekstrak buah pare, (P1) 29 mg/1ml/hari, (P2) 50 mg/1ml/hari, dan (P3) 59 mg/1ml/hari, satu kelompok sebagai kontrol negatif (P0) diberi CMC Na 0,5% 1ml/hari, kontrol positif (K+) diberi Glibenclamide® 0,126 mg/1ml/hari. Ekstrak buah pare diberikan selama 21 hari. Kadar glukosa diperiksa setelah 2 jam, 4 jam, 6 jam dan 8 jam pascapemberian dihari pertama. Kadar glukosa selanjutnya diperiksa pada hari ke 7, 14 dan 21. Semua tikus dieuthanasia setelah 21 hari perlakuan, pankreas dan testis diambil untuk dibuat preparat histopatologi. Hasil menunjukkan bahwa ekstrak buah pare (Momordica charantia Linn.) memiliki efek antidiabetik yang dapat menurunkan kadar gula darah, meningkatkan jumlah sel insula Langerhans dan meningkatkan jumlah sel Leydig pada dosis 50 mg/1ml/hari pada hari ke 21 setelah perlakuan.
Introduction: This study aimed to evaluate minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) of lemon fruit (Citrus limon) extract in inhibiting Salmonella typhi growth in vitro.Methods: This research was categorized as a laboratory experimental study. Lemon fruit (Citrus limon) extract was prepared with concentration as follows: 100.000 ppm, 50.000 ppm, 25.000 ppm, 12.500 ppm, 6.250 ppm, 3.125 ppm, 1.562 ppm, 781 ppm, and 390 ppm. Dilution tests with Mueller-Hinton broth medium were performed to determine the MIC. After 24 hours of incubation, isolated Salmonella typhi inside the tube was inoculated back in MacConkey agar plate medium to determine the MBC. Replications were conducted 3 times according to Federer’s formula.Results: MIC of lemon fruit (Citrus limon) extract to Salmonella typhi was determined at 3.125 ppm. Meanwhile, MBC was determined at 6.250 ppm.Conclusion: This study showed the potential antimicrobial effect of lemon fruit (Citrus limon) extract against Salmonella typhi in-vitro. Further studies are still needed to determine its efficacy and safety in vivo and also its full antibacterial spectrum.
Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mendeteksi efek antimitogenik dari ekstrak fraksi alkaloid daun Achyranthes aspera Linn. terhadap induksi apoptosis, pertumbuhan dan perkembangan sel paru-paru yang diinfeksi oleh Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Efek antimitogenic dari alkaloid A. aspera diujikan pada 120 ekor mencit yang diinfeksikan dengan 100 sel/mL M. tuberculosis dan dibagi menjadi 6 kelompok sehingga masing-masing kelompok terdiri dari 20 ekor. Kelompok perlakuan terdiri dari: kontrol negatif dengan tikus sehat yang diberikan adjuvant saja, kontrol positif dengan diberikan rifampisin 600 mg/kgbb/hari, dan kelompok perlakuan P0 , P1 , P2 , dan P3 yang diinfeksi M. tuberculosis dan diberikan alkaloid dengan dosis bertingkat 0, 60, 12, dan 180 mg/kgbb/po/hari selama 30 hari. Parameter pengamatan terdiri dari: jumlah total leukosit, jumlah total jenis leukosit, jumlah karbuncel di paru-paru, dan jumlah sel paru-paru yang mengalami apoptosis. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan pada tikus yang terinfeksi M. tuberculosis mengalami penurunan jumlah total dan jenis leukosit (eosinofil, neutrofil, lmfosit dan monosit), dan jumlah karbunkel di paru-paru pada kelompok perlakuan akaloid mulai dosis 60 mg/kgbb. Jumlah sel di paru-paru yang mengalami apoptosis juga mengalami penurunan pada kelompok pemberian akaloid daun A. aspera mulai dosis 60 mg/kgBB sama dengan kelompok rifampisin. Kesimpulan dari penelitian bahwa alkaloid daun A. aspera menyebabkan penurunan jumlah total dan jenis leukosit, serta jumlah karbuncel dan sel paru yang mengalami apoptosis pada tikus yang terinfeksi oleh M. tuberculosis.Kata kunci: Achyranthes aspera Linn., antimitogenik, paru-paru tuberkulosis, apoptotis, leukosit (The Antimitogenic Effect of Alkaloid Fraction of Achyranthes aspera Linn. on Apoptotic Induction in Mice Infected by Mycobacterium tuberculosis)The aims of this research was to determine the antimitogenic effect of alkaloid Achyranthes aspera Linn. on apoptotic induction, growth and cell development in lung cell infected by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Antimitogenic effect of alkaloid A. aspera was tested in 120 mice that infected with 100 cell/mL M. tuberculosis and divided into 6 groups so that each group consist of 20 mice. The treatment groups were: negative control that healthy mice was given adjuvans only, positive control that was given rifampisin 600 mg/kg bb/day, and treatment group of P0 , P1 , P2 and P3 infected by M. tuberculosis and given alkaloid with dose 0, 60, 12 and 180 mg/kgbw/po/day continously during 30 days. The parameter of observation were total leucocyte count, total differential leucocyte count, total carbuncel in lung, and percentage of apoptotic lung cells. The result showed that mice infected by M. tuberculosis have decreased in total leucocyte and diferentiated leucocyte total (eosinophil, neutrophil, lymphocyte, and monocyte), and total carbuncel in lungs after treated by akaloid A. aspera with dose begin 60 mg/kgbw. Apoptotic cell in lung was also decreased in the group tretaed by akaloid A. aspera with dose begin 60 mg/kgbw that the value was equal to the group of rifampisin. In conclusion, treatment of alkaloid from A. aspera caused depreciation in leucocyte total and leucocyte differentiation, and total of carbuncel and apoptotic cell in the lung in mouse that infected by M. tuberkulosis.Keywords: Achyranthes aspera Linn., antimitogenic, tuberculosis lung, apoptotic, leucocyte
