Abstract
Background Free radicals are involved in the process of carcinogenesis. Conventional antioxidants and anti-inflammatory drugs have the disadvantages of side effects and high costs. Banana peel contains phenolic and non-phenolic antioxidants that are pivotal in removing inflammatory components by inhibiting reactive oxygen species (ROS), protecting protease inhibitors from oxidative damage, and preventing fibroblast degradation which protects the body against the ill effects of free radicals. Aim and objectives The present study aimed to evaluate the potential antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity of peel extracts of the Musa acuminata Red Dacca(red banana) and Musa acuminata Colla (rasthali). Materials and methods The procured unripe peels of red bananas and rasthali bananas were dried, ground into powder, and used to create aqueous and alcoholic extracts. The aqueous extract was made by dissolving 5 grams of peel powder in 25 ml of distilled water, while the alcoholic extract was prepared by heating ethanol to 100°C for 30 minutes. The extracts were combined, shaken for 24 hours, filtered, and stored at 4°C. Following extract preparation, 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) assay, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) assay, bovine serum albumin (BSA) denaturation assay, and egg albumin (EA) denaturation assay were performed to evaluate the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. The assays were performed in varying concentrations for the prepared extracts of red banana and rasthali and the 1:1 ratio combination extract of both varieties. The obtained data were tabulated and statistically tested using the IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows, Version 22.0 (Released 2013; IBM Corp., Armonk, New York, United States) by the Kruskal-Wallis test with the statistical significance set at p≤0.05. Results Results highlighted variations in the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties of the banana peel extracts and the standard used in all the assays, but there was no statistically significant difference between the extracts and the standard (p>0.05). There was an increase in the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity with an increase in the concentration of both the extracts and the standard. The 1:1 ratio combination extract showed the highest antioxidant property among the banana extracts in the majority of the concentrations in the DPPH assay, whereas the rasthali extract showed the same even more than the standard in the H2O2 assay. The rasthali extract showed the highest anti-inflammatory property in all the concentrations in the BSA assay, and the 1:1 ratio combination extract showed the same in the EA assay. Conclusion The banana peel extracts showed comparable antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties with that of the standard in all the assays with no statistically significant difference. There was a rising trend in the properties with an increase in their concentration. Red banana and rasthali peel extracts, either individually or in combination, could be a promising, effective, and cost-effective alternative or adjunct to the currently available antioxidant medications.

[PMID: 36147103 PMCID: PMC9486571 DOI: 10.1016/j.amsu.2022.104388] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/28/2022] [Revised: 07/31/2022] [Accepted: 08/12/2022] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
For centuries, propolis has been used to treat various diseases in traditional medicine due to its biological and pharmacological activities. It remains popular because of its potentially beneficial role in human health due to its well-known broad multispectrum properties, including antiviral, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, anesthetic, antioxidant, anticancer, antifungal, antiprotozoal, antihepatotoxic, antimutagenic, and antiseptic activity. Numerous studies have examined the antibacterial activity of propolis and its derivatives, which include many natural antimicrobial compounds with broad spectrum activity against different bacterial types. In vitro studies have shown propolis's antibacterial activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Many studies have examined propolis's effect on inhibiting bacterial growth. Several studies examining propolis's inhibition of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria have shown it to be an effective antimicrobial agent. Klebsiella pneumoniae is a Gram-negative bacterium commonly associated with respiratory infections, particularly in hospital settings. Inappropriate antibiotic use may contribute to the increasing number of bacterial strains resistant to available drugs. This review summarizes the findings of previous studies on propolis and its potential mechanisms in inhibiting K. pneumoniae growth in animals. Propolis has a potentially beneficial role in human health. Propolis has antibacterial activity against Gram-positive and -negative bacteria. Propolis has strong antibacterial activity against Klebsiella pneumoniae infection.

Abstract
Background Doxorubicin (DOX) is a commonly used treatment for cancer and the mechanism of DOX-induced cardiomyocyte damage in cardiovascular disease is not fully understood. High-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1), strong induce proinflammatory cytokines via damage associated molecular pattern (DAMP) which its interaction with the receptor of advanced glycation end products (RAGE), that affect cytokine release, and angiogenesis via the role of HMBG1, HIF-1α and VEGF as an important regulator in these cardiac failure processes. Hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) is plays an important role in the cellular response to systemic oxygen levels of cells and VEGF is an angiogenic factor and can stimulate cellular responses on the surface of endothelial cells will be described Objective The aim of this article is to comprehensively review the role of HMGB1, HIF-1α, and VEGF in DOX-induced Cardiovascular Disease and its molecular mechanisms. Methods The data in this study were collect by search the keyword combinations of medical subject headings (MeSH) of “HMGB1”, “HIF-1 α”, “VEGF”, “DOX” and “Cardiovascular disease” and relevant reference lists were manually searched in PubMed, EMBASE and Scopus database. All relevant articles in data base above were included and narratively discussed in this review article. Results Several articles were revealed that molecular mechanisms of the DOX in cardiomyocyte damage and related to HMGB1, HIF-1α and VEGF and may potential treatment and prevention to cardiovascular disease in DOX intervention. Conclusion HMGB1, HIF-1α and VEGF has a pivotal regulator in DOX-induce cardiomyocyte damage and predominantly acts through different pathways. The role of HMGB1 in DOX-induced myocardial damage suggests that HMGB1 is a mediator of DOX-induced damage. In addition, DOX can inhibit HIF-1α activity where DOX can decrease HIF-1α expression and HIF-1α is also responsible for upregulation of several angiogenic factors, including VEGF. VEGF plays an important role in angiogenesis and anti-angiogenesis both in vitro and in vivo and reduces the side effects of DOX markedly. In addition, the administration of anti-angiogenesis will show an inhibitory effect on angiogenesis mediated by the VEGF signaling pathway and triggered by DOX in cells. The effect of Doxorubicin (DOX) induced cardiovascular damage via several pathways. Cardiovascular damage can involve HMGB1, HIF-1α, and VEGF. HMGB1, HIF-1α, and VEGF as a pivotal regulator in DOX-induce cardiomyocyte damage. HMGB1, HIF-1α, and VEGF in cardiovascular diseases will be predominantly acting through different pathways.

Abstract
Background: Increasing resistance to TB drugs raises the challenge of TB eradication. Miana leaves is Indonesian traditional herbal medicine, have antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and immunoregulatory action. Not much is known about the effect of Miana on HIF-1α and ICAM-1, the immunoregulators of infection and inflammation. This study aims to elucidate the effect of Miana on HIF-1α and ICAM-1 in M. tuberculosis (Mtb) infected mice. Materials and Methods: This experimental study used Mtb infected Balb/c mice were divided into 4 groups; group 1 is placebo, group 2 is treated with Rifampicin as Anti TB drug, group 3 is treated with Miana, and group 4 is treated with Miana + Anti TB drug. HIF-1α and ICAM-1 serum levels were analyzed using ELISA. Results: There is a significant difference of mean HIF-1α (p= 0.00, F = 114.21) and ICAM-1 (p= 0.00, F = 113.11) between the four groups after treatment. HIF-1α level is significantly lower in anti TB treatment, Miana, and Miana + anti TB treatment compared to placebo (mean difference (MD) 35,764.67, p=0.00; 29,230.98, p=0.000; 38,489.62, p=0.00, respectively). Furthermore, ICAM-1 level is significantly lower in anti TB treatment, Miana, and Miana + anti TB treatment compared to placebo (MD 95,449.68, p=0.00; 79,509.69, p=0.00; 108,672.83, p=0.00, respectively). Conclusion: HIF-1α and ICAM-1 expression was reduced after Miana administration. Miana can be a potential complement to anti-TB treatment but cannot replace rifampicin as anti-TB drugs.

Abstract
Tuberculosis (TB) is still a major global health problem. The increasing prevalence of antibiotic resistance has posed a major threat towards the mission of TB eradication. Traditional medication has been a staple alternative and adjuvant to conventional treatment for Indonesians. Miana leaves (Coleus scutellariodes) is one such traditional medicine that has a potential role as immunoregulator, antiinflammation, and antimicrobial agent. Several studies have shown that Miana leaves extract can regulate TLR 4, the number of CD4 T cells, IFN-γ levels, and TNF-α.Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) mediates angiogenesis and vasodilatation to provide oxygenation and access for immune cells in hypoxic and inflamed site sue to infection focus. This study aims to study the effect of Miana leaves on VEGF expression. Balb/c mice were infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis and were treated using Miana leaves extract, rifampicin, and rifampicin plus Miana. VEGF protein levels before infection, after infection, and after treatment were measured using ELISA. The results showed that there was a significant difference in VEGF level means between treatment groups. VEGF levels in rifampicin, Miana, and rifampicin plus Miana groups were significantly lower than placebo. VEGF level was significantly lower in rifampicin group compared to Miana group. VEGF level was significantly lower in rifampicin plus Miana group compared to Miana group. There was no significant difference of VEGF level between rifampicin and rifampicin plus Miana group. The results indicate that Maina leaves does have an effect on VEGF level in mice infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
