PURPOSE: To compare tissue cicatrization in the tongue of rats using electrosurgery and the cold blade. METHODS: Ten adult male Wistar rats were divided into two groups of 5 animals each, according to the time of sacrifice (3 and 7 days). Each animal had two incisions, one made with a cold blade and the other with an electric blade, both of which were approximately 0.5 mm in length. Following sacrifice of the animals, the tongues were submitted to a histological study in order to classify the presence of angiogenesis, fibroblastic proliferation, epithelial proliferation and inflammatory cells as good, moderate and weak. RESULTS: The wound made with electric blade presented a delay in the healing process and a greater inflammatory response as compared with the cold blade, despite the fact that there was no statistically significant difference (p<0.05). CONCLUSION: There were no significant statistical differences between electrosurgery and the cold blade in relation to angiogenesis, fibroblastic proliferation, epithelial proliferation or the presence of inflammatory cells at any time of evaluation.

Periodontitis adalah inflamasi kronis yang disebabkan oleh bakteri periodontopatogen. Pada periodontitis terjadi peningkatan infiltrasi neutrofil yang berfungsi untuk memfagositosis bakteri yang menginfiltrasi jaringan gingiva. Kulit manggis mempunyai bahan aktif yaitu xanton yang mempunyai efek antiinflamasi dengan jalan menghambat sintesis PGE2 sehingga akan menurunkan infiltrasi sel inflamasi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui infiltrasi sel neutrofil pada periodontitis setelah pemberian ekstrak etanolik kulit manggis. Tikus wistar jantan sebanyak empat puluh delapan ekor diinduksi periodontitis dengan ligasi pada daerah subgingiva gigi anterior rahang bawah selama 7 hari. Setelah hari ke-7, ligasi dilepas selanjutnya tikus dibagi menjadi 4 kelompok perlakuan yaitu ekstrak kulit manggis 30 mg/kg BB dan 60 mg/kg BB, ibuprofen dan saline. Tikus dikorbankan pada hari ke-1, 3, 5 dan 7 setelah perlakuan. Jaringan pada bagian anterior rahang bawah ditanam dalam paraffin dan dilakukan pemotongan serial kemudian diwarnai dengan hematoxylin eosin. Jumlah neutrofil dihitung di bawah mikroskop dengan perbesaran 400x. Data jumlah neutrofil dianalisa dengan Two Way Anova. Hasil Two Way Anova menunjukkan perbedaan yang bermakna rerata sel neutrofil antar kelompok perlakuan (p<0,05) mengindikasikan pemberian ekstrak etanolik kulit manggis berpengaruh terhadap jumlah sel neutrofil. Dapat disimpulkan bahwa pemberian ekstrak etanolik kulit manggis mampu menurunkan infiltrasi sel neutrofil pada tikus yang diinduksi periodontitis.Neutrophil infiltration in rats with periodontitis after the granting of Ethanolic Extract Skin Mangosteen. Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease caused by periodontopathic bacteria. When periodontitis occurs are followed by neutrophil infiltration. Mangosteen rind contains xanthone, an anti-inflammatory substance which inhibits the synthesis of PGE2 and therefore reduces inflammatory cells infiltration. This research aimed to study neutrophil cells infiltration in experimental-induced periodontitis rats after mangosteen rind ethanolic extract administration. Forty-eight male wistar rats were induced the periodontitis by putting silk ligature subgingivally around the neck of the anterior lower teeth for seven days. After the ligation had been taken out, the rats were divided into four groups and treated orally with mangosteen rind extract 60 mg/kg BB, 30 mg/kg BB, ibuprofen, and saline. The rats were sacrificed on the 1st, 3rd, 4th, seventh day after the treatment. Their anterior lower jaws were processed for paraffin embedded tissue, cut serially and stained with hematoxylin-eosin. The neutrophil cells were observed and counted under the microscope (400x). The data were analyzed using Anova. Anova result showed a significant difference among group (p<0,05) indicating that mangosteen rind ethanolic extract affected the number of neutrophils. In conclusion, mangosteen rind ethanolic extract reduced the number of neutrophil infiltration in periodontitis rats.

The present study aimed to determine the effects of borax (Na2B4O7.10H2O) addition on the changes of histological cerebrum imaging in the brains of white mice (Rattus norvegicus). The current research was an experimental study with randomization of 24 white mice that were divided into four treatment groups with five replications. Borax was dissolved for each treatment with a dose of 19 mg/mouse/day, 26 mg/mouse/day, and 37 mg/mouse/day, and it was administered orally for 14 days. Then, it was analyzed statistically using the Kruskal-Wallis test. The statistical analysis results suggested that there were significantly different results in each treatment group. The control treatment with an administration dose of 26 mg/rat/day had a significantly different result in the worst cloudy swelling degeneration of cerebrum in histopathology imaging on Wistar rats (Rattus norvegicus). Using the Mann-Whitney test, it was found that the dose of borax at 37 mg/rat/day led to significant difference, compared to the other treatment groups, which means that 37 mg/rat/day of borax caused the worst pyramidal cell necrosis in histopathology imaging of the cerebrum on white mice. Borax exposure on Wistar rats (Rattus norvegicus) can cause cloudy swelling at a dose of 26mg/head/day, and pyramidal cell necrosis at a dose of 37 mg/head/day.

ABSTRACT Background: Renal insufficiency is a disease that affects several organs by provoking hypervolemia and uremia. The disease reaches more than 500 million people worldwide and few studies bring their influence on the gastrointestinal tract. Aim: To evaluate the influence of 5/6 nephrectomy-induced hypervolemia on colonic permeability to water and electrolytes. Method: Sixty male Wistar rats weighing between 280-300 g were divided into three groups: 3, 7 and 14 days after nephrectomy, each one having a false-operated/control and partially nephrectomized. For colonic permeability they were submitted to colonic perfusion with a solution of Tyroad containing phenolphthalein. Differences among the concentrations of Na+, K+ and Cl- were used to calculate the rate of colonic permeability for the electrolytes. Phenolphthalein concentrations were used to evaluate the rate of secretion and water absorption. Results: The colonic secretion of water and electrolytes occurred expressively in the group seven days after nephrectomy. Hemodynamic and biochemical assessments determined the progression of renal failure in all three groups and polyethylene glycol was shown to be effective in reversing the secretory capacity of the colon. Conclusion: Hypervolemia established after 7 days post-nephrectomy 5/6 caused marked colonic secretion for water and electrolytes. The organism presents progressive colonic secretion as the blood volume increases; on the other hand, polyethylene glycol was able to revert this secretory framework of the colon to water and electrolytes by reversing the hypervolemia.

Introduction: Ores plant (Juniperus excelsa) has been used for a long-time in the treatment of kidney disease. Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of J. excelsa extract on renal function in male Wistar rats. Materials and Methods: In this study, 32 male Wistar rats were randomly assigned into four groups of eight rats. Distilled water was used for the healthy control group and the other three groups received doses of 10%, 25% and 50% of the extract for one month. Prior to the intervention and on the 15th and 30th days after intervention, 24-hour urine was collected for measurement of protein, creatinine, and urine volume. On the 30th day, the rats were anesthetized with ether and in addition to the urinary samples, serum samples were taken directly from their heart to check for creatinine, urea, sodium, and potassium. Additionally, both kidneys were removed and examined for histological changes. Results: There was a significant difference between the groups before and after intervention regarding creatinine clearance (P=0.008). The mean serum urea on the 15th and 30th days of study was respectively 93±37.33 and 86.47±71.07 mg/dL (P=0.001). In pathology examination, minimal infiltration of inflammatory cells in the interstitium and mild decrease in thickness of renal tubules was observed in 50% dose of the extract. Conclusion: This study showed that the greatest impact of J. excelsa on the renal function of the male Wistar rats was in doses of 50% of the extracts.

Periodontal disease has a high prevalence in Indonesia. Gingival disease is a periodontal disease if it is severe, requires surgical therapy called a gingivectomy. Surgical periodontal procedures lead to a gingival wound that is usually treatedusing a periodontal pack. Periodontal pack has no curative property in general but assists in a wound healing process by protecting tissues. Neutrophils are inflammatory cells that act as a host’s first defense against infectious pathogens and they are important in wound healing. Wound healing can be accelerated by apitoxin gel from honeybee Apis mellifera species. The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of apitoxin gel on neutrophil count on gingival woundhealing process. Medical bee venom powder (Umea, Sweden) was mixed with double-distilled water to prepare a concentration of 0.01% bee venom. The solution was mixed with 10% propylene glycol, 0.01% methylparaben, and3% CMC-sodium. Thirty six gingiva of 3 month-old male Wistar rats (weighing 200-250 gram) were injured using punch biopsy (3 mm in diameter). They were treated in 4 groups: apitoxin gel, apitoxin gel with a periodontal pack, NSAIDsFlamar® gel with periodontal pack, and a periodontal pack. Three Wistar rats from each group were euthanized and their jaws were taken after 48 hours treatment to make histology slides with Hematoxylin Eosin (HE) staining. Neutrophil counts were observed. The data were analyzed using Anova test with 95% confidence level. The results showed there were significan defferebces among 4 groups (p<0.05). The highest neutrophil count on the 2nd day was found in the apitoxin gel induced the 2 day of gingival wound healing process.
