AbstractObjective:To assess the effect of pomegranate extract on acute inflammation due to myringotomy.Design:Prospective, randomised study.Subjects:Thirty Sprague–Dawley rats were divided into three groups. Group one constituted controls. Group two underwent myringotomy. Group three underwent myringotomy and also received 100 µl/day pomegranate extract, via gavage, one day before and two days after surgery. Following sacrifice 48 hours after myringotomy, the animals' right ears were used to determine the concentration of reactive oxygen species, using the chemiluminescence method; left ears were used for histological study.Results:Reactive oxygen species levels were significantly decreased in group three compared with group two (p < 0.01). The density of inflammatory cells in group three was significantly less than that in group two (p < 0.01). Lamina propria thickness and vessel density were also significantly decreased in group three compared with group two (p < 0.01).Conclusion:Our results indicate that oral pomegranate extract decreases reactive oxygen species concentration and acute inflammation in the tympanic membrane after myringotomy.

Diabetes Melitus

Hiperglikemia pada Diabetes Melitus (DM) meningkatkan produksi Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) dan berperan terhadap risiko komplikasi nefropati diabetik. Daun gedi merah (Abelmoschus manihot (L.) Medik) berkhasiat sebagai antidiabetik dan antioksidan tetapi penelitian ekstrak etanol daun gedi merah (EEDGM) untuk mencegah nefropati diabetik belum banyak dilaporkan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui efek EEDGM terhadap kadar SOD dan MDA ginjal tikus model DM.Metode: Tikus Sprague dawley jantan usia 4-6 minggu dikelompokan menjadi 2 kelompok kontrol dan 3 kelompok perlakuan (n=25 ekor). Tikus DM dibuat dengan diet tinggi lemak-fruktosa (DTLF) dan streptozotocin (STZ) 25 mg/kgBB i.p multiple dose. Ekstrak etanol daun gedi merah (EEDGM) diberikan per oral selama 4 minggu. Kadar SOD dan MDA ginjal diukur menggunakan SOD rat kit dan MDA rat kit. Hasil dianalisa dengan One Way Anova dilanjutkan dengan uji BNT (p<0,05).Hasil: Pemberian EEDGM dosis 800 mg/kgBB menghambat penurunan kadar SOD jaringan ginjal dengan persentase sekitar 60% dibandingkan KDM (p<0,05). Pemberian EEDGM dosis 400 mg/kgBB menghambat peningkatan kadar MDA jaringan ginjal dengan persentase sekitar 20% dibandingkan KDM (p<0,05). Induksi DTLF dan STZ menurunkan kadar SOD jaringan ginjal dengan persentase sekitar 40% dan meningkatkan kadar MDA jaringan ginjal dengan persentase sekitar 30%.Kesimpulan: Pemberian EEDGM dapat menghambat penurunan kadar SOD dan peningkatan kadar MDA jaringan ginjal tikus model DM.

Ros Formation

Cardiac ischemia-reperfusion (IR) leads to myocardial dysfunction by increasing production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Mitochondrial H+ leak decreases ROS formation; it has been postulated that increasing H+ leak may be a mechanism of decreasing ROS production after IR. Ischemic preconditioning (IPC) decreases ROS formation after IR, but the mechanism is unknown. We hypothesize that pharmacologically increasing mitochondrial H+ leak would decrease ROS production after IR. We further hypothesize that IPC would be associated with an increase in the rate of H+ leak. Isolated male Sprague-Dawley rat hearts were subjected to either control or IPC. Mitochondria were isolated at end equilibration, end ischemia, and end reperfusion. Mitochondrial membrane potential (mΔΨ) was measured using a tetraphenylphosphonium electrode. Mitochondrial uncoupling was achieved by adding increasing concentrations of FCCP. Mitochondrial ROS production was measured by fluorometry using Amplex-Red. Pyridine dinucleotide levels were measured using HPLC. Before IR, increasing H+ leak decreased mitochondrial ROS production. After IR, ROS production was not affected by increasing H+ leak. H+ leak increased at end ischemia in control mitochondria. IPC mitochondria showed no change in the rate of H+ leak throughout IR. NADPH levels decreased after IR in both IPC and control mitochondria while NADH increased. Pharmacologically, increasing H+ leak is not a method of decreasing ROS production after IR. Replenishing the NADPH pool may be a means of scavenging the excess ROS thereby attenuating oxidative damage after IR.
