Inflammation in pulp tissue is caused by caries bacteria. Most bacteria found are Lactobacillus acidophilus. Propolis is a sticky resin material that is derived from the bees and the surrounding plants, which are reported to have several biological effects including anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory. This study will prove the effectiveness of propolis against proinflammatory cytokines on odontoblast-like cells in human dental pulp. This study was performed on cultured odontoblast-like cells in pulp. Cell culture was derived from the pulp tissue of human M3 teeth that had been extracted. Odontoblast pulp culture was divided in three groups: group one, cultured cells with propolis; group two, cultured cells induced with inactive Lactobacillus acidophilus; group three, cultured cells induced with inactive Lactobacillus acidophilus and exposed to 3 μg/mL propolis. A measurement of TNF-α and TGF-β1 expression was done using the immunocytochemical technique to determine the effectiveness of propolis extracts from East Java Indonesia against proinfalmmatory cytokines. Data were analyzed using the analysis of variance (ANOVA) test (P = 0.05). Propolis extract can inhibit the expression of TNF-α and increase the expression of TGF-β1 on odontoblast-like cell in human dental pulp. Anti-inflammatory effects of East Java propolis extract are associated with cytokine modulation. 相似文献

Fungal leaf blast, caused by Pyricularia oryzae, is a devastating disease of rice plants that annually causes severe production losses worldwide and is one of the top 10 fungal diseases that threaten global food security. Thus, a reliable control strategy against this disease is essential. In this study, the antagonistic activity of indigenous phyllosphere actinomycetes was elucidated against P. oryzae in vitro and in planta to develop an efficient, effective and environmental friendly approach to protect rice plants against P. oryzae. Of 75 isolates of actinomycetes isolated from the rice phyllosphere, 18 isolates inhibited P. oryzae by >45%. According to analysis of their 16 S rRNA gene sequences, the majority of the 18 isolates belonged to Streptomyces genera; others were identified as belonging to Saccharothrix, Gordonia, or Lentzea. Isolates that potentially produced a bioactive compound(s) were identified among the 18 isolates: 17 isolates (94.44%) had a domain marker for nonribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) gene and 12 (66.67%) had type-I polyketide synthase (PKS) gene in their corresponding genome. Interestingly, isolates JSN1.9, SKB2.14, and SKB2.3 suppressed disease suppression by approximately 88%. To our knowledge, this is the first report on the application of rice-phyllosphere actinomycetes producing bioactive compounds to control leaf blast disease in Indonesia. Thus, these findings have escalated the potential application of phyllosphere actinomycetes as a supreme biocontrol agent against fungal leaf blast disease. 相似文献
