According to the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA),the allowed level of Monosodium glutamate (MSG)consumption is 30 mg / kgbw per day. Several studies show that long-term MSG is toxic to the kidneys bycausingoxidative stress and decreasing thekidney function.This study was based on the potential for impaired kidneyfunction and structure caused by excessive consumption of MSG and basil leaves (Ocimum basilicum L.) asantioxidant plants with flavonoid content. To find out the effect of basil (Ocimum basilicum L.) leaves’ ethanolextract dose 175 mg / kgbw, 350 mg / kgbw and 700 mg / kgbw against kidney tubular injury on white rats WistarStrain induced by MSG.This study was a quasi-experimental study with a randomized post-test only controlledgroup design. The number of samples was 25 ABM, divided into five groups, the positive control group (K+), thenegative control group (K-) and the treatment group (K1,K2 and K3).In the group given basil leaves ethanol extractdoses of 175, 350 and 700 mg / kgbw, there was a decrease in tubular injury in the kidney of the white rat (Rattusnorvegicus) Wistar strain induced by MSG 1.6 g/day orally. The optimal dose in this study was 700 mg / kgbw. Teststatistics indicated significant differences in all five groups (p < 0.05).The administration of ethanol extract of basilleaves (Ocimum basilicumL.) was able to prevent tubular injury in the kidney of the white rat (Rattus norvegicus)Wistar strain induced by MSG. Kadar konsumsi MSG yang diperbolehkan menurut Europian Food Safety Authority (EFSA) yaitu 30 mg/kgBB per hari. Beberapa studi pada hewan coba menunjukkan bahwa pemberian MSG jangka panjang bersifat toksik padaginjal dengan menyebabkan stress oksidatif dan menurunkan fungsi ginjal. Penggunaan tanaman yang mengandungantioksidan dapat meningkatkan mekanisme dalam tubuh untuk mencegah stres oksidatif. Penelitian ini didasarkanoleh potensi terjadinya gangguan fungsi dan struktur ginjal akibat stres oksidatif yang disebabkan oleh konsumsiMSG berlebih serta daun kemangi (Ocimum basilicum L.) sebagai tanaman antioksidan dengan kandunganflavonoid.Mengetahui pengaruh pemberian ekstrak etanol daun kemangi (Ocimum basilicum L.) dosis 175,350 dan700 mg/kgBB terhadap cedera tubulus pada BBT ginjal tikus putih (Rattus norvegicus) galur Wistar  yang diinduksiMSG.Penelitian ini merupakan jenis penelitian quasi-experimental dengan rancangan randomized post test onlycontrolled group. Jumlah sampel sebanyak 25 BBT, terbagi menjadi lima kelompok, yaitu kontrol positif (K+),kontrol negatif (K-) dan kelompok perlakuan ekstrak daun kemangi (K1, K2 dan K3).Pada kelompok pemberianekstrak etanol daun kemangi terjadi penurunan cedera tubulus pada ginjal tikus putih (Rattus norvegicus) galur Wistar  yang diinduksi MSG 1,6 g/hari secara oral.  Dosis optimal ekstrak etanol daun kemangi padapenelitian iniyaitu 700 mg/kgBB. Uji statistik menuunjukkan perbedaan yang signifikan pada kelima kelompok (p<0,05). Pemberian ekstrak etanol daun kemangi (Ocimum basilicum L.) dapat mencegah terjadinya cedera tubulus padaginjal tikus putih (Rattus norvegicus) galur Wistar  yang diinduksi MSG.

Many alternative contraceptives can be used as needed. The most effective type of contraception is injection contraception because it is relatively safe, effective, simple and inexpensive. Contraceptive users must be selective in choosing contraception because there is no method of contraception that is safe and effective for all acceptors. The side effects of Medroxy Progesterone Acetat injection include bleeding disorders such as amenorrhoea, weight gain, high blood pressure, acne, spotting. Medroxy Progesterone Acetat is a progestin contraceptive regimen that is often used and works long-term. The mechanism of action of Medroxy Progesterone Acetate injection is to inhibit gonadotropin secretion so that it will prevent the maturation of primary follicles in the ovary and also prevent ovulation and cause endometrial depletion.The research design is the post test only control group design. The population in this research  are the white rats species Rattus norvegicus Wistar strain. The samples are taken randomly from all populations that met the following sample criteria: Female rats, Aged 12-14 weeks, having a body weight of 150 - 200 grams.The results showed that Medroxy Progesterone Acetate hormone affects the thickness of the endometrium, and there is a difference in the histological picture of endometrial thickness due to the administration of the Medroxy Progesterone Acetate hormone and without the administration of the Medroxy Progesterone Acetate hormone

Background: Rhodamine B is a component of xenobiotic substance metabolized by cytochrome P450 in the body to produce free radicals, which affects the activity of Superoxidase Dismutase (SOD), thereby, leading to oxidative stress, injury, increase in cell apoptosis and brainstem. This study aims to determine the effect of Rhodamine B on BAX and BCL-2 in the cerebellum and brainstem tissue of Rattus norvegicus.Design and Methods: The True Experimental Design was used to carry out a post-test examination on the control group of twenty-eight Wistar female Rattus norvegicus mice between the ages of 10-12 weeks. Then, samples were categorized into 4 groups in body weight doses of 4.5 mg/200g, 9 mg/200g, and 18 mg/200g. They were administrated with Rhodamine B personde for 36 days. Results: The results showed that Rhodamine B had a direct and indirect effect on BAX and BCL-2 expressions, respectively, in the cerebellum tissue and wistar strain of Rattus norvegicus. In addition, the positive path coefficient of BAX expression has a positive effect on BCL-2. This means that an increase in BAX has a direct impact on decreasing BCL-2 expression in cerebellum tissue and brainstem of Rattus norvegicus wistar strain along with an increased dose of Rhodamine B. Conclusions: In conclusion, Rhodamine B tends to increase BAX expression which directly decreases BCL-2 in Cerebellum tissue and Brainstem in Rattus norvegicus along with increasing doses.

Objective: To compare the number of apoptosis, necrosis and viability of germinal epithelial cells in the contralateral testicle (CT) and plasma testosterone (PT) levels in white male rats which administered Nifedipine after unilateral testicular torsion (TT) compared with control group. Material & Methods: This research was an experimental study using male white rats (Rattus Norvegicus, Wistar strain) aged 10-12 weeks and body weight 150-200 gram. A total of 30 rats were then randomly divided into 5 groups (n=6) which were negative control group (KN), positive control group (KP1 and KP2) and Nifedipine-administered group (N1 and N2). Each group performed unilateral left side torsion of testicular of 1080o anticlockwise except the KN group. There was 4-hour ischemic duration in the KP1 and N1 groups while 10 hours in the KP2 and N2 groups. Administration of Nifedipine 30 minutes before detorsion by intraperitoneal injection dosed 100 μg/kgBW. All groups performed right orchidectomy and plasma blood sampling. Measurement of apoptosis, necrosis and viability of germinal epithelial cells in the CT using flowcytometry. Measurement of PT levels using Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA). Results: The number of apoptosis, necrosis and viability of contralateral testicular germinal epithelial cells and PT levels in the KN group compared with KP1 and KP2 groups were significantly different (p<0.05). There was no significant discrepancy in apoptosis (p>0.05) in KP1 group compared with N1 group, as well as in KP2 group compared with N2 groups. The number of necrosis, viability of germinal epithelial cells in the CT and PT level in KP1 group in compared with N1 group, as well as in KP2 group in compared with N2 group were significantly different (p<0.05). Conclusion: Nifedipine administration prior to testicular detorsion can maintain cell viability and decrease the amount of necrotic germinal epithelial cells in the CT and prevent the decrease in PT levels after unilateral TT.
