Anti-Proliferative Activity of Nigella sativa Chloroform Extract on 7,12-Dimethylbenz[a]anthracene Induced Female Rats Splenocyte
Previous study reported that Nigella sativa has in vitro and in vivo cancer activity.This study was conducted to observe the effect of chloroform extract of Nigella sativa seed (NCE) on 7,12-Dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA)-induced female rats’ splenocyte. The experiment consisted of five groups, corn oil solvent control group, DMBA group, DMBA+250 mg/kgBW NCE, DMBA+500 mg/kgBW NCE and DMBA+750 mg/kgBW NCE. Extract was dissolved in corn oil and oral administered daily for 2 weeks before and during the DMBA induction. Observation of cell proliferation was performed using haematoxylin and eosin (H&E) and AgNOR stainings. H&E staining showed decreased necrocis activity extract groups compared to DMBA group. From AgNOR staining results, mean AgNOR (mAgNOR) of extract groups was less in number compared to DMBA group. The mAgNOR in corn oil solvent control group, DMBA group, DMBA+250 mg/kgBW NCE, DMBA+500 mg/kgBW NCE and DMBA+750 mg/kgBW NCE were 1.22, 1.91, 1.29, 1.36 and 1.33, respectively. Our current results showed that NCE reduces the proliferation of DMBA-induced rat spleenocytes Thus, NCE has potency to be developed as a chemopreventive agent.Keywords: Nigella sativa, spleen, DMBA, anti-proliferativ

Combination of three species of Zingiberaceae prevents doxorubicin-induced hepatotoxicity
BACKGROUND Doxorubicin as an anticancer drug has hepatotoxic side effects. Curcuma xanthorrhiza, Curcuma longa and Zingiber officinale are commonly used as herbals in Indonesia and around the world. Several compounds in these plants have antioxidant activities and are known to exhibit protection against doxorubicin-induced toxicities. This study aimed to observe the hepatoprotective effect of a combination of C. xanthorriza, C. longa, and Z. officinale extract on doxorubicin-induced hepatotoxicity in rats. METHODS A total of 28 Wistar male rats were divided into four groups: 1) control group (0.9% NaCl); 2) doxorubicin 5 mg/kg intraperitoneally (ip) four times in 14 days (days 1, 5, 9, 13); 3) doxorubicin + combination of C. xanthorriza, C. longa, and Z. officinale (temulawak, kunyit, and jahe merah, designated as Tekuja) 250 mg/kg/day orally for 14 days; and 4) doxorubicin + Tekuja extract 500 mg/kg/day orally for 14 days. Measurements of parameters based on liver histopathology and the parameters of serum alanine amino transferase (ALT) and aspartate amino tranferase (AST). RESULTS Doxorubicin caused significant elevation in serum ALT and AST enzymes after 14 days of treatment. Rats treated with doxorubicin + Tekuja extract 250 mg/kg/ day showed no histological changes, but had decreased levels of ALT and AST. CONCLUSION This study indicates that the combination of C. xanthorriza, C. longa, and Z. officinale has a protective effect in rats against liver damage induced by doxorubici
