Abstract

With the uncertainty of COVID-19 disease around the world, the discovery and development of novel treatments for COVID-19 becoming an emerging trend. Network pharmacology has been used for determining the potential targets from several diseases. This research mainly focused on the potential of Allium schoenoprasum against COVID-19 based on a network pharmacology approach. The methods consist of target identification of the compounds, target identification related to COVID-19 disease, compound-target interaction network, protein-protein interaction network and gene ontology and pathway enrichment analysis. Fifthy three main targets obtained from the compound-COVID-19 were identified as main targets from the compounds with MMP9, MPO, TLR4, MMP2, CCNB1, AURKB, PLK1, TOP2A, ALOX5, and CD38 becoming the top 10 core targets. Phenolic compounds in Allium schoenoprasum may act as anti-COVID-19 through several inflammatory and immune response pathways. Based on these results, it seems that phenolic compounds in Allium schoenoprasum might act as anti-COVID-19 via network pharmacology approaches.

Abstract

Nangka (Artocarpus heterophyllus, Lam.)  is a plant that is rich in nutrients and contains phytochemicals that can be used in various fields, especially in the health sector. Traditionally, every part of this plant has been widely used for its anticarcinogenic, antimicrobial, antifungal, anti-inflammatory, wound healing, and hypoglycemic effects. Antibacterials are an important part of drug preparations to accelerate wound healing. Antibiotics inhibit the occurrence of infection and stimulate the process of forming fibroblast cells for wound closure. Bacteria that are often found in wounds and inhibit the acceleration of wound healing are Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. The purpose of this study was to test the activity of the ethanol extract of nangka leaf (Artocarpus heterophyllus, Lam.) in vitro on E. coli and S. aureus bacteria. The extraction method used was maceration with ethanol solvent and in vitro antibacterial activity testing using the paper disc method, as well as variations in extract concentrations, namely 12.5%, 25%, 50%, 75%, chloramphenicol as a positive control, and 5% DMSO as a negative control. The results showed that the ethanol extract contained various secondary metabolites, namely alkaloids, tannins, saponins, steroids/triterpenoids, and flavonoids. The ethanol extract of nangka leaf (Artocarpus heterophyllus, Lam.) has strong category potential as an antibacterial against E. coli and S. aureus.Keywords: Antibacterials; Escherichia coli; Nangka leaf; Staphylococcus aureus; Wound healing

Abstract

Hypertension is an abnormally high blood pressure condition that is the leading cause of preventable cardiovascular disease, chronic kidney disease, and cognitive impairment. In the case of hypertension, repressing the Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme (ACE) expression has been shown to be an effective method of controlling hypertension by inhibiting the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II. Captopril is the most commonly used ACE inhibitor. It simultaneously inhibits the conversion of angiotensin I to the potent vasoconstrictor angiotensin II and the vasodilator peptide bradykinin. Sweet basil (Ocimum basilicum L.) on the other hand, is used in traditional Indian and Chinese medicine to treat a variety of diseases, including hypertension. The study aimed attempts to investigate the potency of 6 major compounds found in sweet basil (Ocimum basilicum L.) extract, as an anti-hypertension therapy. The analysis demonstrates that Ocimum basilicum L., extract is effective as an anti-hypertension therapy because it contains several compounds that may interact with ACE and inhibit its activity. The molecular docking analysis and drug-likeness prediction indicate that camphor could be a potential drug candidate because it does not violate the Lipinski rule, has a high Gastrointestinal (GI) absorption, a high affinity to interact with ACE, and a similar interaction site to the ACE-Captopril interaction.Keywords: ACE; Holly basil; Hypertension; Molecular docking

Abstract

The role of pharmacists in the implementation of pharmaceutical care has been shown to improve the outcome of therapy in hypertension patients in various countries. This study aimed to implement pharmaceutical care for hypertension patients and determine its impact on the incidence of drug-related problems (DRPs) and clinical outcomes of hypertension patients in Puskesmas Lubuk Pakam. This study used a comparative experimental method before and after the intervention of 73 hypertension patients in March-August 2021. Identification of the of DRPs was using the PCNE V9.00 standard and blood pressure values were obtained from direct examination of patients. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank test. The results showed that the average DRPs incidence was significantly reduced after the intervention (observation, interview, and education) on the hypertension patients. The average blood pressure before intervention was 154.38 ± 16.20 mmHg and after intervention became 144.04 ± 15.94 mmHg (p value = 0.000). Based on the results of the study, it can be concluded that the application of pharmaceutical care can reduce the incidence of DRPs and improve clinical outcomes in hypertension patients in Puskesmas Lubuk Pakam.

Abstract

Uric acid is the final product of purine metabolism that will be excreted through urine, feces, and sweat. Excessive production of uric acid can cause hyperuricemia, known as gout. The skin of shallots (Allium cepa L.) is one of the household wastes that are very rarely used by the community. Ethanol extract of shallot skin (EESS) was tested for phytochemical screening and anti-hyperuricemia activity using potassium oxonate. Mice were divided into five groups (Allopurinol, Na-CMC, EESS 200 mg/kg BW, 300 mg/kg BW, and 400 mg/kg BW) and uric acid levels were observed at 2-hour intervals for six hours. Phytochemical screening shows that EESS has potential compounds in the treatment of gout. Tests to reduce uric acid levels showed that EESS has better potential than allopurinol at concentrations of 300 mg/kg BW and 400 mg/kg BW after six hours of induction in reducing uric acid levels.

Abstract

Patients with hypertension usually experience chronic comorbidities and complications that require complex treatment (polypharmacy), which can further cause drug-related problems (DRPs) and interfere with the required clinical outcomes. This study, by using a case-control prospective cross-sectional, aimed to analyze the association between DRPs and blood pressures (BPs) of hypertensive patients admitted to Universitas Sumatera Utara (USU) hospital from July to September 2021. The incidence of DRPs was analyzed and classified according to the Cipolle classification system and reliable literature. Blood pressures of the patients were classified into controlled and uncontrolled BPs. The association between DRPs and BP was analyzed using the Chi-Square test. Most of the patients (57.5%) were female. Their mean age was 59±9.94 (years). The mean incidence of DRPs experienced by the patients was 1.78±0.79. The most frequently occurred DRPs were drug interactions. There was a significant association between the number of DRPs experienced by the patients and their BPs (p=0.02). DRPs are the contributing factor to the uncontrolled BPs of hypertensive patients.
