Abstract

Anadara clam shell contains high Zinc. This microelement is recognised as acting natural aromatase blocker (NAB) that capable of boosting testosterone level. The aim of this study was to evaluates the testosterone level of Canaries following Anadara nodifera administration. Adult male Canaries (n = 27) were group into 3 with 9 repetition of each i.e T0 [control, was given by Carboxymethyl Cellulose Sodium (Na-CMC)], T1 (Zinc Sulphate 0.013 mg/30 g BW), and T2 (NAB 0.3 mg/30 g BW). The T2 treatment was NAB or shell powder of Anadara nodifera which was diluted 1:1 in Na-CMC. The birds were treated orally for 21 days. The complete blood cell count was performed in a haemo analyser except the erythrocyte was calculated manually in the Improved Neubauer counting chamber. Testosterone level was measured in ELISA. Subsequently gen CYP19 aromatase in syrinx, brain and testis were identified employing IHC and descriptively analysed. The result indicated significant elevated level of testosterone (p<0.05). The expression of CYP19 aromatase receptor was depressed in syrinx, brain and testis. However there was no significant changes on the blood profile (p>0.05). To conclude, Anadara nodifera at 0.3 mg/30 g BW was capable of acting as NAB to promote testosterone level. This was confirmed by the reduction of CYP19 aromatase gene receptors in syrinx, brain and testis. However NAB treatment was not significantly affecting routine blood profile.

Abstract

Soybean (Glycine max L. Merr.) contains phytoestrogens that have a chemical structure resembling estrogen in the body. They function like estrogen and antiestrogen, affecting the metabolism of sex steroid hormones. This research aimed to determine the effect of the methanol extract of soybean on the histological structure and distribution of immunohistochemical Cyp19 aromatase in rat testis . Twenty males of Wistar rats were divided into 4 groups of 5. The frst group was the control and the second to fourth groups were given soybean extract (250 mg/kg of body weight, 500 mg/kg of body weight) and genistein (0.3 mg/kg of body weight), respectively, for 52 days. The results of this study indicate that the effect of methanol extract from soybean caused weight gain, and the weight of the testis and epididymis decreased. In addition, the histological results showed that seminiferous tubules were reduced in size, became irregular, were separated by a wide interstitium, and spermatogenic cells were decreased. The immunohistochemical results showed that the expression of Cyp19 aromatase in the rats decreased both in spermatocyte cells and Leydig cells. It could be concluded that the methanol extract of soybean induced testicular damage and reduced Cyp19 aromatase expression in rat testis.

Abstract

Soybean (Glycine max L. Merr.) is one of the foodstuffs that are oftenconsumed most of Indonesian. Soy contains phytoestrogens, whichhave chemical structures resemble the hormone estrogen in the body,namely the isoflavones, especially genistein. Genistein is known notonly have various beneficial physiological effects but also act as anendocrine disruptor is because estrogen can play a role as well asantiestrogen activity that affects the metabolism of sex hormones andrelated activities biologi. The objective of this study was to know thequality of genistein in soy extracts Grobogan varieties that have beenpeeled the husk with Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) and thequantity of soy extract genistein levels Grobogan varieties that havebeen peeled the husk with a method of High Performance LiquidChromatography (HPLC). The method used for extraction ofisoflavones genistein is maceration. Soybean seed samples which havebeen hulled begins with removal of non polar compounds byextraction using n-hexane solvent extraction followed macerationusing 80% methanol. The methanol extract obtained fractionated witha stationary phase of silica gel GF 254, the mobile phase toluene-ethylacetate-aseton- formic acid 20: 4: 2: 1 (v / v). To determine whether ornot a compound genistein compounds in the extract by using acomparison standard genistein further Rf sample extract comparedwith the price of a standard Rf. While the determination of genisteincompound quantitatively with HPLC method genistein standard wear≄ 98% at a concentration of 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 ppm. The identification ofgenistein using Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC), shows the stainsthat have Rf of about 0.43. Results genistein content by HPLC showedpeaks of the chromatograms that have a retention time of about 2,050minutes. HPLC analysis results in three replication showed levels ofgenistein in soya bean varieties Grobogan was 1 g samples of soyextracts that have been flayed husk there was an average of 0.6356 mggenistein. In the soybean seed Grobogan varieties contains isoflavonesgenistein. Levels of genistein in 1 g of sample soy extracts Groboganvarieties that have been flayed epidermis was an average of 0.6356 mggenistein.
