Latar Belakang: Cisplatin telah menjadi terapi lini pertama untuk kanker ovarium, namun efek samping terbesar cisplatin adalah peningkatan resistensi sel kanker yang menyebabkan hepatotoksisitas pada sel normal. Kurkumin terbukti memiliki sifat hepatoprotektif, tetapi efek terapeutik kurkumin terbatas karena memiliki bioavailabilitas yang rendah. Penggunaan kitosan nanopartikel pada kurkumin telah terbukti meningkatkan bioavailabilitas kurkumin sehingga efektivitasnya lebih besar. Penelitian ini dilaksanakan untuk melihat pengaruh nanokurkumin terhadap hepatotoksisitas akibat pemberian cisplatin. Tujuan: Membandingkan pengaruh kurkumin dan nanopartikel kurkumin untuk digunakan sebagai ko-kemoterapi dengan cisplatin pada kanker ovarium tikus yang ditinjau melalui jalur apoptosis, khususnya marker Bax dan Kaspase-3. Metode: Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian eksperimental in vivo pada model kanker ovarium tikus betina galur Wistar yang diinduksi 7,12-dimethybenzen[a]anthracene (DMBA) dan dilaksanakan di Departemen Farmakologi dan Terapeutik Fakultas Kedokteran Universitas Indonesia sejak bulan Juni 2019 hingga Juni 2020. Cisplatin diberikan dalam dosis sebesar 4 mg/kgBB secara intraperitoneal. Kurkumin dan nanokurkumin diberikan dalam dosis oral sebesar 100 mg/kgBB. Organ tersimpan hepar yang diambil dari 25 ekor tikus terbagi menjadi 5 kelompok perlakuan, yaitu kelompok tikus normal, model kanker ovarium tikus, terapi cisplatin, terapi cisplatin + kurkumin, dan terapi cisplatin + nanokurkumin. Setelah dikelompokkan, dilakukan homogenisasi sampel yang terpilih. Lalu, RNA Bax dan Kaspase-3 diisolasi dari homogenat sampel organ hepar dan cDNA kedua gen disintesis. Kemudian, tingkat ekspresi mRNA Bax dan Kaspase-3 pada hepar diukur menggunakan qRT-PCR. Data ekspresi mRNA Bax dan Kaspase-3 dianalisis dan diuji korelasi antarkelompok menggunakan aplikasi SPSS. Hasil: Tidak ada perbedaan yang signifikan antara kelima kelompok pada tingkat ekspresi mRNA Bax (p=0,372) dan Kaspase-3 (p=0,111). Kesimpulan: Tidak ditemukan pengaruh kurkumin dan nanokurkumin terhadap ekspresi mRNA Bax dan Kaspase-3 organ hepar pada model kanker ovarium tikus setelah pemberian terapi cisplatin.

"Salah satu obat antikanker yang sekarang paling efektif digunakan sebagai kemoterapi kanker ovarium adalah cisplatin. Namun, cisplatin memiliki banyak efek samping pada berbagai organ, salah satunya hepar. Hepatotoksisitas akibat cisplatin menyebabkan terbatasnya dosis kemoterapi cisplatin. Salah satu faktor kunci patofisiologi kerusakan akut hepar adalah inflamasi. Kurkumin merupakan senyawa alami yang memiliki sifat antiinflamasi tetapi bioavailabilitasnya rendah. Untuk itu, diformulasikan nanokurkumin untuk meningkatkan bioavailabilitasnya. Meskipun begitu, efek kurkumin dan nanokurkumin dalam memodulasi jalur inflamasi hepatotoksisitas akibat cisplatin pada kanker ovarium belum diamati. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk membandingkan pengaruh kurkumin dan nanokurkumin sebagai ko-kemoterapi terhadap hepatotoksisitas cisplatin dalam jalur inflamasi. Penelitian in vivo dilakukan pada tikus Wistar betina yang diinduksi DMBA untuk mendapatkan model kanker ovarium. Kemudian, tikus-tikus diberi perlakuan terapi dengan cisplatin secara intraperitoneal (4 mg/kgBB/minggu) dan kombinasinya dengan kurkumin (100 mg/kgBB/hari) dan nanokurkumin (100 mg/kgBB/hari) per oral. Tikus-tikus tersebut dibagi menjadi kelompok: tikus normal, model kanker ovarium saja, terapi cisplatin, terapi cisplatin + kurkumin, dan terapi cisplatin + nanokurkumin. Setelah 1 bulan, tikus di-sacrifice dan organ hepar disimpan beku. Ekspresi mRNA relatif NF-κB dan IL-1β serta kadar protein IL-6 diukur dengan metode qt RT-PCR dan ELISA secara berurutan. Data hasil pengukuran IL-6 dan data hasil transformasi logaritma NF-κB dan IL-1β dianalisis menggunakan uji one-way ANOVA, menggunakan perangkat lunak SPSS20. Tidak terdapat perbedaan signifikan secara statistik antar kelompok perlakuan dalam mRNA NF-κB (p=0,503), mRNA IL-1β (p=0,237), dan protein IL-6 (p=0,157). Tidak ada perbedaan yang signifikan antara kurkumin dan nanokurkumin dalam memodulasi jalur inflamasi hepatotoksisitas cisplatin pada model kanker ovarium tikus.

Up to now, one of the most effective anticancer drug as ovarian cancer chemotherapy is cisplatin. Nevertheless, cisplatin has many side effects on several organs, one of which is liver. Cisplatin-induced hepatotoxicity causes limited cisplatin chemotherapy dose. One of the pathophysiological key factor of acute liver injury is inflamation. Curcumin is natural compound which has antiinflamation properties but the bioavailability is low. To overcome it, nanocurcumin is made to increase its bioavailability. Nonetheless, curcumin and nanocurcumin effect on modulating inflammatory pathway toward cisplatin-induced hepatotoxicity in ovarian cancer rat model has not been observed. This study aims to compare the effect of curcumin and nanocurcumin as co-chemotherapy toward cisplatin-induced hepatotoxicity in inflammatory pathway. An in vivo study was done on female Wistar rats induced by DMBA to achieve ovarian cancer model. Then, rats was treated with cisplatin intraperitoneally (4 mg/kgBW/week) and the combination with per oral curcumin (100 mg/kgBW/day) and nanocurcumin (100 mg/kgBW/day). Those rats were divided into groups, which are normal rat, only ovarian cancer model, cisplatin therapy, cisplatin + curcumin therapy, and cisplatin + nanocurcumin therapy. After 1 month, rats are sacrificed and liver organs are stored frozen. mRNA relative expression of NF-κB and IL-1β as well as protein level of IL-6 was measured using qt RT-PCR and ELISA method, respectively. The result data from the measurement of IL-6 and the data from logarithmic transformation of NF-κB and IL-1β was analysed using one-way ANOVA test using SPSS20 software. There is no significant differences between groups in mRNA NF-κB (p=0.503), mRNA IL-1β (p=0.237), and protein IL-6 (p=0.157). There is no significant differences between curcumin and nanocurcumin in modulating inflammatory pathway of cisplatin-induced hepatotoxicity in ovarian cancer rat model."

"Latar Belakang: Cisplatin, agen kemoterapi pilihan untuk kanker ovarium, bersifat hepatotoksik dengan menginduksi stres oksidatif. Kurkumin adalah agonis jalur Nrf2/Keap1 yang penting dalam respons terhadap stres oksidatif, namun bioavailabilitasnya buruk. Pemberian kurkumin dalam bentuk nanopartikel meningkatkan bioavailabilitasnya dalam tubuh dan distribusinya ke organ target. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh nanopartikel kurkumin terhadap hepatotoksisitas cisplatin melalui modulasi jalur Nrf2/Keap1 dilihat dari kadar MDA dan ekspresi gen jalur Nrf2/Keap1. Metode: 25 ekor tikus Wistar betina dikelompokkan menjadi 5 kelompok yaitu kelompok normal, 4 kelompok model kanker ovarium yang diinduksi DMBA yang dibagi menjadi kelompok tanpa terapi, monoterapi cisplatin 4 mg/KgBB intraperitoneal, ko-kemoterapi cisplatin dan kurkumin konvensional 100 mg/KgBB per oral, serta ko-kemoterapi cisplatin dan nanopartikel kurkumin dalam kitosan 100mg/KgBB per oral selama 1 bulan. Tikus dikorbankan dan hepar disimpan beku. Pengukuran MDA dilakukan dengan metode spektrofotometri, sementara analisis gen jalur Nrf2/Keap1 dilakukan dengan prosedur qRT-PCR. Hasil: Uji parametrik ANOVA dan post-hoc Tukey menunjukkan adanya penurunan kadar MDA hepar secara bermakna antara kelompok ko-kemoterapi kurkumin konvensional dan ko-kemoterapi nanokurkumin dengan kelompok monoterapi cisplatin (p=0,000 dan p=0,005). Tidak ada perbedaan bermakna antarkelompok pada ekspresi relatif mRNA Keap1 (p=0,190). Tidak ada perbedaan bermakna antara kelompok ko-kemoterapi kurkumin konvensional dengan nanokurkumin terkait ekspresi relatif Nrf2 (p=0,990), HO-1 (p=0,513), dan NQO-1 (p=1,000). Kesimpulan: Pemberian kurkumin menurunkan kadar MDA jaringan hepar dibanding kelompok monoterapi cisplatin.

Introduction: Cisplatin induces hepatotoxicity by oxidative stress-related mechanism. Curcumin activates the Nrf2/Keap1 pathway, modulating cellular response to oxidative stress, but its bioavailability is poor. The administration of curcumin in nanoparticles may increase the bioavailability and distribution of curcumin into tissues. This research aimed to assess the attenuation of cisplatin- induced hepatotoxicity through the modulation of Nrf2/Keap1 pathway by nanocurcumin.

Methods: 25 female Wistar rats were divided into a normal group and four ovarian cancer models by DMBA induction (further classified into a no treatment group, cisplatin monotherapy [4 mg/KgBW i.p.], co-administration of cisplatin and conventional curcumin [100 mg/KgBW p.o.], and co-administration of cisplatin and curcumin-loaded chitosan nanoparticles [100mg/KgBW p.o.]) for a month. The livers of the sacrificed animals were frozen. MDA level was measured by spectrophotometry, while the analysis of Nrf2/Keap1 pathway was done using qRT-PCR.

Results: The ANOVA parametric test showed significant differences between groups in hepatic MDA level ((p<0,001). MDA level was markedly reduced in groups receiving conventional (p<0,001) and nanocurcumin (p=0,005), though there were no significant differences between the administration of conventional and nanocurcumin in MDA level (p=0,277). There were no significant differences between groups in Keap1 relative mRNA expression (p=0,190). No statistically significant differences were observed between groups receiving conventional curcumin and nanocurcumin in the relative gene expression Nrf2 (p=0,990), HO-1 (p=0,513), and NQO-1 (p=1,000) mRNAs.

Conclusion: Curcumin did attenuate cisplatin-induced hepatotoxicity, but no significant differences were observed in hepatic MDA level and relative expression of genes in the Nrf2/Keap1 pathway between conventional curcumin and nanocurcumin administration. "

Latar belakang: Kurkumin memiliki aktivitas antikanker yang poten, namun profil farmakokinetik dan ketersediaan kurkumin di organ target sangat rendah. Nanopartikel kurkumin dibuat untuk meningkatkan aktivitas kurkumin sehingga dapat meningkatkan efek obat pada proses angiogenesis dan proliferasi sel pada tikus model kanker ovarium.

Metode: Nanopartikel kurkumin dibuat dengan metode gelasi ionik menggunakan kitosan sebagai polimer. Profil farmakokinetika kurkumin dan nanokurkumin dilakukan pada tikus dengan pemberian dosis oral sebesar 100 mg/kgBB. Sampel darah diambil pada sembilan  waktu dan konsentrasi kurkumin dalam plasma dianalisis menggunakan UPLC-MS/MS. Pengujian nanokurkumin sebagai ko-kemoterapi secara in vivo pada kanker ovarium dilakukan pada tikus model kanker ovarium dengan induksi DMBA. Tikus model kanker ovarium diberikan terapi cisplatin atau kombinasi cisplatin dan kurkumin, atau kombinasi cisplatin dan nanokurkumin. Efek antikanker dilihat dari pengukuran marker antiproliferasi (Ki67), marker apoptosis serta jalur sinyal TGF-b/PI3K/Akt dan IL-6/JAK/STAT3.

Hasil: Diperoleh ukuran partikel nanokurkumin sebesar 19,43±11,24 nm, dengan efisiensi penjerapan 99,97%, dan loading capacity 11,34%. Sifat mukoadhesif nanokurkumin lebih baik dibandingkan dengan kurkumin. Evaluasi profil farmakokinetik pada tikus diperoleh bahwa nanokurkumin meningkatkan AUC, Cmax, Tmax dan menurunkan klirens. Pada uji aktivitas in vivo,  pemberian cisplatin dan ko-kemoterapi nanokurkumin menyebabkan penurunan yang signifikan pada volume dan berat ovarium. Penemuan ini sesuai dengan penurunan ekspresi protein TGF-β, PI3K dan p-Akt/Akt. Efek ko-kemoterapi nanokurkumin juga dapat dapat menurunkan ekspresi protein IL-6, JAK, dan p-STAT3/STAT3. Pemberian cisplatin dan nanokurkumin juga menyebabkan peningkatan marker apoptosis yang signifikan seperti Bax, kaspase-9 dan kaspase-3 serta menurunkan ekspresi Bcl-2.

Kesimpulan: Nanokurkumin dapat memperbaiki profil farmakokinetika kurkumin, sehingga dapat diaplikasikan pada strategi ko-kemoterapi kanker ovarium dengan menghambat proliferasi melalui penghambatan jalur sinyal PI3K/Akt, JAK/STAT3, peningkatan apoptosis marker Bax, kaspase-3 dan kaspase-9 serta menurunkan ekspresi Bcl-2.

Background: Curcumin has a potent anticancer activity. However, its systemic bioavailability and its concentration in organ is extremely low. The modification of curcumin to curcumin nanoparticles was expected to increase the activity of curcumin on angiogenesis and cell proliferation process in rat ovarian cancer.

Methods: Nanocurcumin were made using ionic gelation methods. The pharmacokinetic profiles of curcumin particles and nanoparticles were then assessed in rats by administering a single oral dose of 100 mg/kg BW. Blood samples were taken from nine predetermined time points, and curcumin plasma concentrations were then analyzed using UPLC-MS/MS. Nanocurcumin was tested as a co-chemotherapy in vivo and was carried out on ovarian cancer animal models, induced with 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene (DMBA). The ovarian cancer animal models were then treated with cisplatin, or cisplatin and curcumin, or combination of cisplatin with nanocurcumin. The anticancer effect of nanocurcumin as co-chemotherapy was investigated with the measurement of antiproliferation marker (Ki67), apoptotic markers as well as the expression of TGF-b/PI3K/Akt dan IL-6/JAK/STAT3.

Result: The particle size of the curcumin nanoparticles obtained were 19,43±11,24 nm. Entrapment efficiency (EE) of curcumin nanoparticles were exceeding 99.97%, and drug loading capacity (DLC) was 11.34%. The mucoadhesive properties of the nanoparticles were superior to that of curcumin particles. Pharmacokinetic evaluation in rats revealed that curcumin nanoparticles resulted in an increase of AUC, Cmax, Tmax, and lower Cl. The administration of cisplatin and nanocurcumin co-chemotherapy caused a significant reduction in ovarian volume and weight. These findings followed with decreased protein expression of TGF-β, PI3K and p-Akt/Akt. The co-chemotherapy effect nanocurcumin is also investigated as a mechanism of action via IL-6, JAK, p-STAT3/STAT3 expressions.  Treatments of cisplatin and nanocurcumin resulted in a significant increase in apoptotic markers such as Bax, caspase-9, and caspase-3 expressions and decreased Bcl-2 expression.

Conclusion: Nanocurcumin is an effective formulation to improve pharmacokinetics profile. Nanocurcumin as a co-chemotherapy  can be considered as a potential co-chemotherapy in ovarian cancer. The improved mechanism of actions are shown by the proliferation inhibition, downregulation of PI3K/Akt, JAK/STAT3 signaling pathways, and Bcl-2 expression and increasing apoptosis through the expression of Bax, caspase-9 and caspase-3.

"Latar belakang: Kanker ovarium diduga dapat menyebabkan penurunan fungsi dan kerusakan ginjal. Cisplatin salah satu terapi kanker ovarium bersifat nefrotoksik. Kerusakan ginjal ini terjadi melalui berbagai mekanisme, salah satunya adalah peningkatan ekspresi ETAR. Kurkumin diduga mampu menurunkan ekspresi ETAR pada jaringan ginjal yang rusak. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui efek ko-kemoterapi kurkumin pada cisplatin terhadap ekspresi ETAR serta gambaran histopatologi jaringan ginjal pada tikus model kanker ovarium. Metode: 24 tikus wistar betina dibagi menjadi empat kelompok: Kelompok normal sham (N), kanker ovarium tanpa perlakuan (Ca), kanker ovarium yang mendapat 4 mg/KgBB cisplatin (Cis), dan kanker ovarium yang mendapat 4 mg/KgBB cisplatin +100 mg/KgBB kurkumin (Cis+Cur). Setelah 3 minggu tikus dikorbankan, ginjal tikus diambil untuk pengamatan histopatolgi serta ekspresi mRNA ETAR. Hasil: Pada pengamatan histopatologi Masson Trichrome ditemukan fokus fibrosis pada kelompok tikus Ca dan Cis. Melalui qRT-PCR diketahui bahwa ekspresi mRNA pada kelompok Ca dan Cis relatif sama, namun meningkat masing-masing sebesar 133% (2,33 kali lipat) dan 123% (2,23 kali lipat) dibandingkan dengan kelompok normal. Sedangkan pada kelompok Cis+Cur terdapat penurunan ekspresi mRNA sebesar 31,5% (0.315 lebih rendah) dan 34,4% (0.344 lebih rendah) berurutan dibanding kelompok Cis dan Cur. Tidak ditemukan perbedaan bermakna secara statistik antar kelompok uji. Kesimpulan: Kanker ovarium dapat memicu kerusakan ginjal pada tiku dibuktikan dengan peningkatan ekspresi mRNA ETAR dan fokus fibrosis. Pemberian cisplatin pada dosis terapeutik tidak meningkatkan ekspresi mRNA ETAR pada jaringan tikus model kanker ovarium, meski demikian pemberian kurkumin sebagai ko-kemoterapi menurunkan ekspresi mRNA ETAR dan fokus fibrosis meskipun tidak bermakna secara statistik.

Background: Ovarian cancer is believed can lead to renal functional deterioration Furthermore, cisplatin as chemotherapeutic agent has nephrotoxic effects. Increased expression of the Endothelin A receptor (ETAR) is thought to be one of the mechanisms. Curcumin is believed to have protective effects in injured kidney. This study is to evaluate the co-chemotherapy effects of curcumin for cisplatin upon ETAR expression and histopathological appearances in rats’ kidney. Method: Total of 24 wistar rats, devided into four treatment groups: normal group (N), ovarian cancer without treatment group (Ca), ovarian cancer which received cisplatin 4 mg/kgBW group (Cis), and ovarian cancer which received cisplatin 4 mg/kgBW + 100 mg/kgBW curcumin group (Cis+Cur). Kidney tissue specimen was obtained for histopathological examination and ETAR messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) expression. Results: Fibrosis foci were found at kidney tissue of Ca and Cis group. The mRNA expression level among Ca and Cis group were relatively equivalent; however increased by 133% (2,33 fold) and by 123% (2,23 fold), respectively compared to N group. Meanwhile, the Cis + Cur group decreased by 31.5% (0.315 lower) and 34.4 % (0.344 lower) compared to Cis and Ca group respectively. There are no statistical significant among the experiment groups. Conclusion: Ovarian cancer is associated with kidney injury, demonstrated by increased of ETAR mRNA and fibrosis foci formation. Therapeutic dose cisplatin do not increased ETAR mRNA in the kidney of ovarian cancer rat. Curcumin administration as co-chemotherapeutic agent result in the decrease of ETAR mRNA level and the decrease of fibrosis foci formation."

"Pendahuluan: Hampir 85% kasus karsinoma ovarium terjadi overekspresi endothelin-1 (ET-1) yang memodulasi persinyalan tumorigenesis dan metastasis. Disisi lain, cisplatin sebagai kemoterapi kanker ovarium menimbulkan efek samping dan resistensi terapi. Berbagai penelitian menunjukkan kurkumin berpotensi sebagai antikanker yang meningkatkan efikasi cisplatin dan menekan overekspresi ET-1 pada lini sel nonkanker. Namun, belum banyak penelitian yang mengidentifikasi penekanan ekspresi ET-1 oleh kurkumin dalam regimen terapi bersama cisplatin di kanker ovarium. Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini bertujuan melihat efek ko-kemoterapi kurkumin bersama cisplatin pada kanker ovarium terkait ekspresi relatif mRNA ET-1. Metode: Jaringan ovarium tersimpan dari 24 tikus betina galur Wistar dibagi kedalam 4 kelompok: tikus yang hanya dibedah dan diberi aquadest (sham), tikus yang diimplantasi DMBA tanpa intervensi terapi, tikus yang diimplantasi DMBA dan diberi terapi tunggal cisplatin intraperitoneal 4 mg/kgBB/minggu, tikus yang diimplantasi DMBA dengan diberi terapi cisplatin 4 mg/kgBB/minggu dan kurkumin oral 100 mg/kgBB/hari. Implantasi DMBA dilakukan selama 28 minggu dan intervensi pada hewan coba selama 4 minggu. Setelah itu, jaringan ovarium tersimpan dianalisis ekspresi relatif mRNA ET-1 dengan mesin qRT-PCR menggunakan metode Livak-Schmittgen (2(-Ct)). Hasil: Didapatkan rerata ekspresi relatif mRNA ET-1 [p=0,021] pada kelompok sham (0,349±0,24), kelompok DMBA (3,117±1,532), kelompok DMBA+cisplatin (0,993±0,651), dan kelompok DMBA+kurkumin+cisplatin (0,117±0,081). Ketiga kelompok tidak memiliki perbedaan bermakna dibandingkan sham. Meski demikian, terdapat perbedaan bermakna pada kelompok kombinasi cisplatin serta ko-kemoterapi kurkumin dengan kelompok tanpa intervensi terapi [p=0,019]. Kesimpulan: Terjadi penurunan ekspresi relatif mRNA endothelin-1 di jaringan ovarium model tikus yang diinduksi DMBA setelah pemberian kombinasi cisplatin dan ko-kemoterapi kurkumin.

Introduction: Endothelin-1 overexpression happens in 85% ovarian carcinoma cases that modulate metastatic and tumorigenesis. Meanwhile, cisplatin as ovarian cancer chemotherapy cause side effects and therapy resistances. Prior studies show potential effect of curcumin as an anticancer could enhance cisplatin efficacy and attenuate ET-1 overexpression in non-cancer cell lines. However, not many studies have identified suppression effect of ET-1 expression by curcumin with cisplatin in ovarian cancer. Therefore, this study is conducted to identify the effect of curcumin with cisplatin in ovarian cancer treatment especially its relation to relative expression of ET-1 mRNA.

Methods: Frozen ovarian tissue samples from 24 female Wistar rats were divided into 4 groups: a group that only operated on and treated with distilled-water (sham), group with DMBA-implantation, group with DMBA-implantation and intraperitoneal cisplatin 4mg/kgBW/week, group with DMBA-implantation and cisplatin with same dose as before plus oral curcumin 100mg/kgBW/day. After 28 weeks of DMBA-implantation and 4 weeks of intervention, frozen ovarian tissue samples were taken to measure its relative expression of ET-1 mRNA level with qRT-PCR machine.

Results: The mean of relative expression of ET-1 mRNA level [p=0,021] in frozen tissue sample of sham group (0,349±0,24), DMBA-implantation group (3,117±1,532), DMBA+cisplatin-treated group (0,993±0,651), and DMBA+curcumin+cisplatin-treated group (0,117±0,081). This study shows those 3 groups did not have significant difference compared with sham. But among group with cisplatin+curcumin-treated compared to DMBA-implantation shows a significant difference (p=0,019).

Conclusion: The relative expression of ET-1 mRNA in ovarian tissue of DMBA-induced rats model decreases after given by a combination of cisplatin+curcumin co-chemotherapy."

"Latar belakang : Cisplatin adalah pilihan utama dalam penatalaksanaan kanker ovrium secara farmakologi. Namun, disisi lain cisplatin dapat menyebabkan kerusakan ginjal. Kerusakan ginjal akibat Cisplatin salah satunya terjadi karena perubahan aktivitas sistem endotelin ginjal sebagai pengatur hemodinamik ginjal. Secara teori kerusakan ini dapat dikurangi dengan pemberian ko-kemoterapi cisplatin yang memiliki sifat renoprotektif. Salah satu agen renoprotektif adalah Kurkumin. Salah satu manfaat kurkumin dapat mengurangi kerusakan ginjal karena bersifat renoprotektif. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui efek pemberian kurkumin sebagai ko-kemoterapi cisplatin terhadap ekspresi reseptor endothelin B (ETBR) dan gambaran hitopatologi pada ginjal tikus model kanker ovarium.Metode: Dua puluh empat tikus Wistar betina (150-200 gram) berusia 5 minggu dikelompokan menjadi empat kelompok: Normal (N), Kanker Ovarium tanpa pemberian obat (Ca), Cisplatin (Cis) adalah kelompok tikus kanker ovarium yang mendapat terapi cisplatin 4mg/KgBB selama tiga minggu, Cisplatin+Kurkumin (Cis+Cur) adalah kelompok tikus kanker ovarium yang diberi cisplatin 4mg/KgBB+ curcumin 100mg/KgBB selama tiga minggu. Setelah memasuki minggu ke-24, tikus dikorbankan dan diambil jaringan ginjal untuk dilakukan pengamatan secara histologi dan molekular.Hasil: gambaran histologi ginjal menunjukan perubahan struktur abrnomal. Akan tetapi perubahan struktur menuju kerusakan ginjal pada penelitian ini tidak signifikan. Selanjutnya, pengamatan ekspresi ETBR didapati ekspresi tertinggi pada kelompok tikus normal (N) dan terendah pada kelompok tikus dengan pemberian Cisplatin dan Kurkumin (Cis+Cur) dengan nilai p pada uji ANOVA Satu Arah sebesar 0.087 (signifikan jika p<0,05).Kesimpulan: pemberian kurkumin sebagai ko-kemoterapi cisplatin pada tikus model kanker ovarium tidak menyebabkan perubahan struktur histologi yang bermakna dan tidak menyebabkan peningkatan ekspresi ETBR yang signifikan.

Background: Cisplatin is the main choice in pharmacological treatment of ovarian cancer. However, cisplatin can cause kidney damage. One of the causes of kidney damage due to cisplatin occurs due to changes in the activity of the renal endothelin system as a renal hemodynamic regulator. In theory, this damage can be reduced by giving cisplatin co-chemotherapy which has renoprotective properties. One of the renoprotective agents is curcumin. One of the benefits of curcumin is to reduce kidney damage because it is renoprotective. This study aims to determine the effect of curcumin administration as co-chemotherapy of cisplatin on endothelin B receptor expression (ETBR) and the histopathological description of ovarian cancer model rats.

Methods: Twenty-four female Wistar rats (150-200 grams) aged 5 weeks were grouped into four groups: Normal (N), Ovarian Cancer without drug administration (Ca), Cisplatin (Cis) is a group of ovarian cancer mice receiving 4mg/KgBB cisplatin therapy for three weeks, Cisplatin + Curcumin (Cis + Cur) is a group of ovarian cancer mice that were given cisplatin 4mg / KgBB + curcumin 100mg / KgBB for three weeks. After entering the 24th week, the rats were sacrificed and kidney tissue was taken for histological and molecular observation.

Result: The histology of the kidneys showed an abnormal structural change. However, the structural changes leading to kidney damage in this study were not significant. Furthermore, observations of ETBR expression found the highest expression in the normal (N) group

of rats and the lowest in the group of rats given Cisplatin and Curcumin (Cis + Cur) with a p value in the One Way ANOVA test of 0.087 (significant if p <0.05).

Conclusion: giving curcumin as co-chemotherapy of cisplatin in ovarian cancer model mice did not cause significant changes in histological structure and did not cause a significant increase in ETBR expression"

Tikus model kanker ovarium diberikan perbedaan perlakuan lagi yaitu satu kelompok tidak diterapi, satu kelompok diterapi cisplatin 4 mg/kgBB secara intraperitoneal, satu kelompok diterapi cisplatin dan kurkumin konvensional 100 mg/kgBB oral, dan satu kelompok diterapi cisplatin dan nanopartikel kurkumin 100 mg/kgBB per oral. Setelah satu bulan pemberian terapi, tikus dikorbankan dan disimpan beku organ hatinya. Pengukuran kadar TNF-α dan TGF-β1 jaringan hati dilakukan dengan metode ELISA. Hasil: Tidak terdapat perbedaan yang signifikan antar kelompok perlakuan pada kadar TNF-α (p=0.675), dan tidak terdapat perbedaan yang signifikan antara kelompok terapi kurkumin dan nanokurkumin pada kadar TGF-β1 (p=0.992). Simpulan: Pemberian nanokurkumin tidak memengaruhi kadar TNF-α dan TGF-β1 di jaringan hati tikus model kanker ovarium yang mendapat terapi cisplatin.

Introduction: Cisplatin is currently the main choice for ovarian cancer therapy, but it has side effects including hepatotoxicity. One of the pathophysiology of cisplatin-induced hepatotoxicity is through inflammation and fibrosis. Curcumin is a compound that has anti-inflammatory and antifibrosis effects, but has a low bioavailability. The administration of curcumin nanoparticles under study can increase the bioavailability of curcumin in the body. Goals: This study aims to determine the effect of nanocurcumin on cisplatin-induced hepatotoxicity, in terms of levels of TNF-α and TGF-β1 in liver tissue.

Methods: In vivo research was carried out on female Wistar rats divided into 5 treatment groups (1 normal/sham group, and 4 groups induced by DMBA to obtain ovarian cancer models). The ovarian cancer model mice were further classified where one group got no treatment, one group treated with cisplatin 4 mg/kgBW intraperitoneally, one group was treated with cisplatin and conventional curcumin 100 mg/kgBW orally, and one group was treated with cisplatin and curcumin nanoparticles 100 mg/kgBW orally. After one month of therapy, the mice were sacrificed and kept their liver frozen. The measurement of TNF-α and TGF-β1 levels in liver tissue was carried out by the ELISA method.

Results: There was no significant difference between treatment groups in TNF-α levels (p = 0.675), and there was no significant difference between the curcumin and nanocurcumin therapy groups in TGF-β1 levels (p = 0.992).

Concluson: Nanocurcumin therapy did not affect TNF-α and TGF-β1 level in liver tissue in ovarian cancer model mice receiving cisplatin therapy."

"ABSTRAKLatar Belakang: Kanker ovarium merupakan salah satu kanker yang menyebabkan kematian paling tinggi pada wanita. Tujuh puluh persen saat didiagnosis ditemukan pada stadium lanjut, dengan angka kesintsan dalam 5 tahun hanya 46 . Modalitas terapi saat ini adalah sitoreduksi dengan kemotterapi adjuvant platinum based sebagai lini pertama. Efektivitas kemoterapi hanya 60 pada stadium lanjut, untuk selanjutnya berkembang menjadi rekuren. Oleh karena itu dibutuhkan jenis terapi tambahan berdasarkan jenis atau agen yang bekerja spesifik di sel kanker dan dapat bersinergi dengan pengobatan standar saat ini. Kurkumin sebagai salah satu agen yang banyak diuji memiliki efek anti-kanker. Kurkumin berpotensi sebagai anti kanker dan bekerja pada semua multistep karsinogenesis. Kurkumin dapat bekerja sebagai antiproliferasi dan meningkatkan apoptosis.Tujuan: untuk mengetahui antiproliferasi ekspresi Ki67 dan apoptosis caspase 3 dan caspase 8 kombinasi cisplatin dengan nanokurkumin pada sel hayati SKOV3.Metode: Penelitian ini dilakukan uji eksperimental in vitro dengan menggunakan sel hayati SKOV3 untuk mengetahui antiproliferasi ekspresi Ki67 dan apoptosis caspase 3 dan caspase 8 kombinasi cisplatin dengan nanokurkumin pada sel tersebut. Uji analisis data dengan T tidak berpasangan bila sebaran normal / uji Mann Whitney bila sebaran tidak normal serta menggunakan Graph Pad Prism.Hasil: Berdasarkan penelitian ini, didapatkan cc50 nanokurkumin 67 m dan cc50 cisplatin 54 m dengan menggunakan metode MTT Assay. Viabilitas sel pada penelitian ini menurun sesuai dengan dose dependent, dimana pada dosis kombinasi nanokurkumin 134 m dengan cisplatin 108 m ditemukan sel hidup yang paling rendah 24.3 p

ABSTRACTBackground Ovarian cancer is one of the most leading cancers in women. Seventy percent at the time of diagnosis are found at an advanced stage, with a 5 year survival rate of only 46 . The current treatment modality is cytoreduction with platinum based adjuvant chemotherapy as first line. The effectiveness of chemotherapy is only 60 at an advanced stage, to further develop into recurrent. Therefore, additional types of therapy are required based on types or agents that work specifically in cancer cells and can synergize with current standard treatments. Curcumin as one of the many tested agents has anti cancer effects. Curcumin has the potential effect as an anti cancer and works on all multisteps of carcinogenesis. Curcumin can work as an antiproliferation and increase apoptosis.Objective to know antiproliferation effect expression Ki67 and apoptosis effect caspase 3 and caspase 8 of combination cisplatin with nanokurkumin on cell SKOV3.Methods This experimental study was conducted in vitro by using biological cell line SKOV3 to know antiproliferation effect expression Ki67 and apoptosis effect caspase 3 and caspase 8 of combination cisplatin with nanokurkumin on the cell. The data was analysed with unpaired T when normal distribution Mann Whitney test when distribution is not normal and also using Graph Pad Prism.Result Based on this result, cc50 of nanokurkumin is 67 m and cc50 of cisplatin is 54 m by using MTT Assay method. The viability of the cells in this study decreased according to the dose dependent, whereas in the combined dose of 134 m nanocurcumin with 108 m cisplatin found the lowest life cell 24.3 p "
