BACKGROUND: Ethanolic extract of Pirdot leaves (Saurauria vulcani Korth) (EES) has bioactive compound to decrease glucose and increase insulin levels. AIM: To know of effect of ethanolic extract of Pirdot leaves of immunoglobulin G and lysozyme activity in rats treated with Sheep Red Blood Cell (SRBC). METHODS: Experimental design used in this research was Completely Randomized Design (CRD). There were 24 white rats to be classified into four groups: a control group with water (G0), a group treated with 0.1 ml sheep red blood cell (SRBC) (G1), a group treated with 500 mg/kg ethanol extract pirdot leaves (EES) (G2), and a group treated with 500 mg/KgBW ethanol Extract pirdot leaves (EES) + 0.1 ml SRBC (G3). Immunostimulant activity was evaluated by analyzingthe levels of immunoglobulin G with ELISA method, lysozyme with ABX Micros 60 and histophatology kidney with Hematoxylin-Eosin stainning. RESULTS: The lysozyme activity in rats were treated with only SRBC () is higher and significantly different compared with a group of control (). Necrosis was not found in a group control () and rats treated EES 500 mg/kg ().There were no significant change in histophatology of kidney in rats treated EES 500 mg/kg. Disruption in bowman space with glomerulus was found in G1 (SRBC). Antigen induced disruption in G1 (SRBC) whereas giving extract ethanolic Pirdot leaves concurrently with antigen SRBC can protect kidney from disruption in G3. CONCLUSIONS: A significantly effect of immunoglobulin G, lysozyme activity and histophatology kidney in rats after given by ethanolic extract of pirdot leaves.

This research aimed to evaluate the effect of thyroid hormone deficiency on the erythrocytic system in dogs. Dogs with clinical symptoms of hypothyreosis such as obesity, hyperpigmentation, and lethargy were selected. The dogs demonstrating breed predisposition to hypothyreosis were incorporated in the analysis: Dachshunds, Retrievers, and mixed-breed dogs. A detailed history was taken and clinical, hormonal, biochemical and haematological blood tests were performed. Peripheral blood samples were taken from 53 dogs. Finally, the dogs with the initial T4 (thyroxine) concentration < 1.3 µg/dl and animals demonstrating clinical improvement after a 2-month therapy with levothyroxine at a dose of 10 µg/kg administeredper ostwo times a day were qualified. The animals between 10 months to 13 years of age were divided into two groups: clinically healthy (control group, n = 35) and dogs presenting clinical symptoms of hypothyreosis (experimental group, n = 18). In this research, the broadly described normocytic normochromic non-regenerative anaemia was not diagnosed in dogs with hypothyreosis. However, a positive correlation between T4 and red blood cell indices such as the average mass of haemoglobin per red blood cell, concentration of haemoglobin in a given volume of packed red blood cells as well as a negative correlation with haematocrit value was discovered in the experimental group after the 2-month therapy with levothyroxine. These results point to the influence of thyroid hormones on erythropoiesis. This observation is partially consistent with other studies, which noted the casual link between the changes in red blood cell system and the function of thyroid in dogs and humans.
