Neuroprotective effect of vitamin D3 toward apoptosis induced by ethanol in CA1 pyramidal cells of rat hippocampus
As an antioxidant, Vitamin D3 can protect neurons from damage caused by oxidative stress.Ethanol is known to have neurotoxic effects by inducing an increase in oxidative stress. One ofthe brain regions that is most sensitive to neurotoxic effects induced by ethanol is hippocampus,especially its CA1 region. This study was aimed to determine the neuroprotective effects ofvitamin D3 in preventing the apoptosis in CA1 hippocampal pyramidal cells induced by ethanol.Fifteen male Wistar rats (Rattus norvegicus) were randomly divided into three groups. The controlgroup was given daily normal saline solution intraperitoneally. The ethanol group was given20% ethanol solution at a dose of 3 g/kg BW/day intraperitoneally. The vitamin D3 group wasgiven vitamin D3 1 μg/kg BW/day in 20% ethanol solution at a dose of 3 g/kg BW/dayintraperitoneally. After 30 days, the rats were sacrificed, their brains were perfused with PBSfollowed by fixative and the hippocampus was dissected for histological preparations.Immunohistochemical staining for caspase was performed. Percentage of apoptotic CA1hippocampal pyramidal cells was calculated. The results showed there was no significant difference(p> 0.05) on the total number of pyramidal cells between the control group (20.52 ± 1.31), theethanol group (19.02 ± 1.60), and the vitamin D3 group (21. 06 ± 0.70) per field of view.However there was a significant increase (p<0.05) in the percentage of apoptotic CA1hippocampal pyramidal cells in in the ethanol group (16.09 ± 0.67%) compared to the controlgroup (10.60 ± 0.95%). Vitamin D3 significantly (p<0.05) prevented an increase in the percentageof apoptotic CA1 hippocampal pyramidal cells in the vitamin D3 group (10.82 ± 0.64%). Inconclusion, vitamin D3 had a neuroprotective effect to prevent an increase in apoptosis in CA1hippocampal pyramidal cells to the neurotoxic effects induced by ethanol

The practical class of motorcycle engine course which was held in the Engineering Faculty workshop of Padang State University was conducted in a squat position. This position does not comply with a healty working norm. A research was done to improve the procedure by using a motorcycle elevator in which the students can do the practicum in a standing position.
This experiment was done using one group pre and post test design which was intended to find out whether there was an improvement on comfort and fatique after changing from squatting position to standing position. It was done at the automotive workshop of the Engineering Faculty of Padang State University. The samples consisted of 20 students who have passed the motorcycle course. They conducted the main engine component practical classes in squatting position and standing position alternatively. After a practical class, they were given questionnaires on Body Area Discomfort Map (BAD) to measure discomfort. Before and after the practical class, the researcher assigned Reaction Timer L 77 to measure fatique. The time needed to finish the practical class was recorded. The data were analyzed using two way variance and one way variance statistical analysis of SPS 2000.
The result showed that (1) working in a standing position was very significantly more comfortable (p < 0,01) than in a squatting position, (2) working in a standing position caused very significantly less fatique (p < 0,01) than in a squatting position, and (3) working hours in a standing position very significantly shorten (p < 0,01) than in a s

Background: Centella asiatica is herbaceous plant that has medicinal value to improve learning and memory. Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) has a significant role in memory formation process, while oxidative stress causes memory impairment. Objective: This study aimed to investigate the effects of ethanol extracts of Centella asiatica leaf on memory performance and serum BDNF (neurotrophins) and Nitric Oxide(NO) concentration of rats following chronic electrical stress. Materials and Methods : Twenty male rats (Sprague Dawley) were divided into four groups: control/aquadest group and groups treated with three different doses (mg/kg) of Centella asiatica :150 (CeA150), 300 (CeA300) and 600 (CeA600). Memory performance was tested using probe test in Morris Water Maze before and after oral administration of ethanol extracts of Centella asiatica leaf followed by electrical stress for 28 days. At the last day of memory exercise following chronic stress, blood sample was taken from periorbital veins of all rats. Concentration of serum BDNF and total NO was assessed using ELISA. Data were analyzed using one way ANOVA. Results: Treatment groups had higher percentage in probe test water maze and serum BDNF concentration after chronic stress. Mean time percentage (%) of probe test in water maze performance for control group, CeA150, CeA300, and CeA600 were 53.33+2.43, 55.78+4.16, 63.33+4.07, and 73.55+3.29 (p<0.05). Mean concentration of serum BDNF (ng/ml) for control group, CeA150, CeA300, and CeA600 were 1.52+0.89, 1.49+0.20, 1.73+0.15, and 2.16+0.20 (p<0.05 vs control group). Control group had higher serum NO concentration compared to all treatments groups. Mean concentration of serum NO (µmol/L) for control group, CeA150, CeA300, and CeA600 were 5.94+0.52, 3.98+0.35, 3.06+0.33, and 2.82+0.21 (p<0.05).

FAKTOR UMUR PADA PENGARUH NIR SANGGA BEBAN TERHADAP Musculus Soleus DAN Musculus Extensor Digitorum Longus Rattus
Nir sangga beban merupakan salah satu tindakan trapeutik yang tidak jarang dilakukan, dan dapat diberikan pada berbagai umur dalam jangka waktu yang cukup panjang. Padahal, beban merupakan salah satu faktor yang berpengaruh trofik terhadap otot skelet. Tikus-tikus jantan umur 1, 7, 17 dan 23 hari diamputasi salah satu tarsus belakangnya, sehingga tungkai amputasi tidak menyangga berat badan. Pasca amputasi tikus-tikus dipelihara selama 3, 5 atau 7 minggu dengan diberikan pakan dan minum ad libitum. Pada tiap kelompok umur awal perlakuan, di masing-masing akhir perlakuan, diambil 5 tikus untuk diperiksa m. soleus dan m. extensor digitorum longus baik dari sisi amputasi maupun sisi kontrol. Dibuat sediaan histokimiawi otot secara metode potong beku dan dipulas dengan HE serta ATPase. Pada masing-masing otot diperiksa berat, proporsi jumlah masing-masing tipe serabut otot beserta diameter transversalnya. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa tidak tergantung umur awal perlakuan, pada m. soleus nir sangga beban berat otot, diameter transversal serabut otot, dan proporsi jumlah serabut otot tipe I secara sangat bermakna lebih rendah dibandingkan m. soleus kontrol. Kecuali pada kelompok umur 1 hari, selama perlakuan nir sangga beban berat, diameter serabut otot serta proporsi jumlah serabut otot tipe I m. soleus masih mengalami perkembangan. Pada kelompok umur 1 hari, nir sanga beban menyebabkan diferensiasi serabut otot m. soleus berhenti. Pengaruh nir sangga beban terhadap m. extensor digitorum longus relatif hanya terlihat pada lebih rendahnya berat otot dibandingkan kontrol. Dari hasil penelitian ini disimpulkan bahwa inisiadsi pacuan motoneuron penting untuk diferensiasi serabut otot selanjutnya
