Abstract

Background: Wound treatment using traditional medicine has been known widely in various countries in the world. Ageratum conyzoidesL. is commonly known by the ancient people to treat wound due to its potential anti-inflammatory effect. This study aims determine the effect of Ageratum conyzoidesL. leaves extract on fibroblast density of incision wound of male white mice (Mus musculus). Methods: This post-test only control group design experimental study used 35 male white mice which were randomly divided into five groups, i.e. negative control group K(-), positive control group K(+) (10% povidone iodine), and treatment group P1, P2, and P3 that were each given billy-goat weed leaf with increasing dose (15%, 30%, and 45% respectively). On each day, the length of the incision was measured by a ruler. After 7 days, the mice were terminated to obtain wound tissue which were used to prepare H&E stained histopathological sections to observe fibroblast density. Non-parametric analyses using Kruskall-Wallis and Mann Whitney test were used to compare the wound length and fibroblasts density. Results: Lengths of incision wound between all pairs of groups at the 7th day are significantly different (p< 0.05) with group P3 showed the shortest one. Significant differences were also observed in fibroblasts density between group K(-) and K(+), K(-) and P1, K(-) and P2, K(-) and P3, K(+) and P3, P1 and P3, P2 and P3 (p< 0.05) with group P3 showed the highest density among all groups. Conclusions: Ageratum conyzoidesL. leaves extract 45% has more potential effect than povidone iodine 10% in accelerating healing process by enhancing fibroblasts density.

Abstract

Background: Common Indonesians often use alternative therapy for Diabetes Mellitus (DM) due to its high prevalence. Tree marigold (Tithonia difersivolia (Hemsl.) A. Gray) leaves show its positive effect in decreasing blood glucose level. Thus, it is important to analyze the negative effect of consuming the proposing alternative including its toxicity level to vital organs. This study aims to observe the blood glucose level and liver histopathology in streptozotocin-induced diabetic male rats treated by infusion and ethanol extract of the tree marigold leaves. Methods: Pretest and posttest with control group design experiment was conducted to analyze effect on blood glucose level and posttest only with control group design was for determining liver histopathology. Twenty-four male white rats (Wistar strain) were randomly divided into 4 groups: normal control group (KN), positive control group (K+) treated with 0.45mg/kg of glibenclamid,treatment group 1 (P1) treated by 100 mg/kg of tree marigold leaves ethanol extract, and treatment group 2 (P2) treated by 1373 mg/kg of tree marigold leaves infusion. The rats at the groups of K+, P1, and P2 were induced by streptozotocin to reach hyperglycemic state. Comparison of blood glucose level effect between infusion and ethanol extract was analyzed by One-Way ANOVA continued by post-hoc test, while comparison of liver histopathology effect was determined by Kruskal-Wallis continued byMann-Whitney test. Results: Significant differences of blood glucose level decrease were found in all groups. Group P2 significantly decreased blood glucose level more than P1 (p=0.000) as much as 124.97 mg/dl and 101.46 mg/dl respectively. Significant differences of liver histopathology were obtained between KN vs K(+), KN vs P2, K(+) vs P2, and P1 vs P2. Group P2 showed more severe of liver histopathology changes than P1 (p=0.025). Conclusion: Tree marigold leaves extract is more effective in lowering blood glucose level and has less toxic effect to liver histopathology than its infusion.
