scholarly journals The Role of Bidara Leaf Extract (Ziziphus Mauritiana) on the Prevention of Renal Hypertension in Wistar Strain Rats

Hypertension is ranked the fourth highest disease in the word. Glomerulosclerosis is the initial lesion from kidney failure in patient with hypertension. Bidara leaves have active flavonoid such as saponins and tannins are thought to prevent an increase in blood pressure and repair glomerulosclerosis. This study to prove the effect of bidara leaf extract to decrease hypertension and to prevent glomerulosclerosis. This study was true experimental with Pre and Post Test Control Group Design. This study used male white rats wistar strain. Sample divided into 5 groups (positive group, treatment group with 3 leveled dose, and medicine-control group) and were being observed in 28 days. Hypertension was measured using tail cuff blood pressure. Glomerulus observed randomly with light microscope in 5 different field of view with 400x magnification and scoring by Sclerosis Index (SI). In the linear regression test had R 2 = 0,332 for systolic blood pressure and R 2 = 0,609 for diastolic blood pressure. For glomerulosclerosis we found that the highest SI (369,69) was positive control group, while the lowest SI (84,09) was the group with a dose 400mg/kg/day. Bidara leaves extract have a significant effect on reduce hypertension and glomerulosclerosis.

Abstract High blood cholesterol is often called hypercholesterolemia is a risk factor for the emergence of pathological conditions such as heart and blood vessel disease. Hypercholesterolemia has an important role in the occurrence of damage to the endothelial cells is mainly caused by oxidized LDL. Oxidation of LDL triggers the formation of TNF - ?. Leaves messengers that allegedly contains flavonoids can improve the situation of hypercholesterolemia through the barriers specifically the expression of TNF - ? increased due to hypercholesterolemia. Plants messengers known to contain alkaloids, flavonoids, tannins, saponins, polyphenols, calcium oxalate, fats, and essential oil. Flavonoids which has the ability to bind the atom to form free radicals not to excess free radicals, thereby inhibiting the oxidative modification of LDL become ox-LDL so it will not be formed atherosclerosis. This study uses the Randomize pattern Pre and Post Test Control Group Design, using white rats (Rattusnovergicus) with Wistar strain aged 3-4 months, weighing 175-200 grams. Divided into four groups: Group I as a control with placebo, Group II treatment using extracts of ethanol leaves a messenger at a concentration of 10%, Group III treatments using extracts of ethanol leaves a messenger at a concentration of 20%, Group IV is to use the extract ethanol leaves errand at a concentration of 30%. It can be concluded at 4 dose group 30% messengers leaf extract significantly different, p <0.05, so it can be said that the provision of effective messengers extract at a dose of 30%.

Dyslipidemia is a coronary heart disease risk factor. Dyslipidemia is characterized by the elevated levels of LDL, triglycerides, total cholesterol, and the decrease in HDL. Ginger rhizome (Curcuma xanthorriza Roxb.) and bay leaf (Eugenia polyantha Wight.) are local plants that have the abilities to decrease total cholesterol. This research design was true experimental with pre- and post-control group design. Criteria of sample were white rats, wistar strain, male, age of 8-12 weeks, and body weight range of 150-200 grams. Sampling method was simple random sampling. The experimental rats were acclimatized for seven days. Hypercholesterol diet was fed two weeks, and then the rats were given intervention and get hypercholesterol diet for two weeks. During intervention, the experimental rats were divided into 6 groups of administrationi.e, rats administered with 1) carboxymethil celluse/CMC, 2) simvastatin 0,9 mg/kg BW/day, 3) ginger rhizome extract 200 mg /kg BW/day, 4) ginger rhizome extract 400 mg/kg BW/day, 5) bay leaf extract 200 mg/kg BW/day, and 6) bay leaf extract 400 mg/kg BW/day. Blood samples were taken from caudal vein and total cholesterol levels were measured by spectrophotometry. The analysis used paired T test, One Way ANOVA test. The results showed ginger rhizome extract did not effectively reduce total cholesterol. However, bay leaf extract effectively decreased total cholesterol levels with the highest total cholesterol reduction was found in rats administered with dose of 400 mg/kg BW/day i.e, 15.4 mg/dl. Bay leaf extract have the same effectivity with simvastatin as a standard drug in lowering cholesterol level.

The aim of this study was to prove the effects of dexamethasone on immune responses in rats with testicular torsion. This was an experimental study with post test only control group design. In this study, 27 rats were randomly divided into 3 groups. In normal or sham group (CN) orchidectomy was performed on the right testis on day 14. The positive control group (CP) had testicular torsion for 10 h, then manual detorsion was performed after 4 h, and on day 14 orchidectomy was performed on ipsilateral and contralateral testes. The treatment group (N) had testicular torsion for 10 h and received 10 mg/kgBW dexamethasone subcutaneously 30 minutes before manual detorsion 4 hours later, and on day 14 orchidectomy was performed to ipsilateral and contralateral testes. The spermatogonium count was calculated based on the average number of intratubular seminiferous tubule section observed in contralateral testicular incision with Haematoxiliyn Eosin (HE) staining. IgG count was calculated based on the average number of extratubular seminiferous tubules observed at 5 contralateral testicular incision with immunohistochemical staining (IHC). The number of spermatogonia was significantly different between CN and CP, CN and N, and CP and N (p<0.05). IgG production also showed significant differences between CN and CP, CN and N, as well as CP and N (p<0.05). In conclusion, administration of dexamethasone provides a protective effect on spermatogonium count and IgG production on a 10-hour testicular torsion.
