Abstract:
The research aim is to determine the effect of mimosa plant (mimosa pudica Linn) to reduce blood sugar levels in mice and determining the effective concentration of mimosa plant extracts as an alternative to decrease blood sugar levels. The extract is produced by the infusion method. The animal test used is male mice with amount 18 mice that induced by EDTA (ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid). Mice are divided into 6 groups randomly with different treatment. The group I, II, III and IV were given the mimosa plant extract with a concentration of 10, 20, 30, and 40% (w/v) respectively while group V is given glibenclamide suspension as positive control (+) and group VI is given Na-CMC 1% as negative control (-). Data were analyzed using the statistical test analysis of variance (ANOVA) and then followed by Duncan test. The results showed that the mimosa plant extract contains flavonoids, alkaloids, and tannins. In preclinical testing of mimosa plant extract proven to reduce blood sugar levels in mice and the most effective concentration is a concentration of 20% (w/v) with significantly α = 0.05.

Abstract:
Mimosa L. includes more than 530 species and is subdivided into five sections, including Mimadenia Barneby, Batocaulon DC., Habbasia DC., Calothamnos Barneby and Mimosa. It has previously been proposed that Mimosa is derived from piptadenioid ancestors and that section Mimadenia is a morphological group intermediate between the piptadenoid ancestor and the remaining species from Mimosa. The main goals of the present study were to assess the monophyly of the genus Mimosa as it is currently described, including representatives of all five sections, test the previous evolutionary hypothesis that section Mimadenia is primitive within Mimosa and discuss the infrageneric classification from a phylogenetic view. We report a phylogenetic analysis of chloroplast nucleotide sequences of the trnL intron and the trnL–trnF intergenic spacer from 36 species of Mimosa, and six related genera. Our analysis indicated that genus Mimosa is monophyletic, and the species of section Mimadenia constitute a clade sister to the rest of the genus. Although section Mimadenia, as described by Barneby (1991), seems to be monophyletic, the remaining sections Barneby (1991) proposed are not resolved as monophyletic. An effort needs to be made towards a new infrageneric classification of Mimosa that considers the phylogenetic evidence.

Abstract:
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of aqueous leaf extract of Mimosa pudica in the lungs of adult Wistar rats exposed to insect-repellent mist. 30 adult Wistar rats were randomly assigned into 5 groups; group A-E comprising of 6 rats per group. Group A rats were placed on rat food and water only. Group B rats were exposed to insect repellant only via inhalation. Group C rats were given Mimosa pudica extract orally at 500mg/Kg body weight per day (BWT/D) and Group D rats were exposed to Mosquito repellent and received low dose of the plant extract at (250mg/kg BWT/D) and Group E rats were exposed to mosquito repellent and received (500mg/kg BWT/D) of extract. The dosages were given for 30 consecutive days via orogastric method. There was significant increase in body weight in all treated groups. The haematological outcome showed that insect repellent caused some derangements in haematological parameters especially haematocrit, plateletcrit and mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration. Histologically, Group D showed an expanded lumen of the bronchioles and shrunken activated immune system. Group E showed a more activated immune system and contracted bronchial artery. Mosquito repellant induced vascular ulceration, bronchiolar mucosal ulceration and activated lymphoid tissue in Group B. These effects were reversed by Mimosa pudica leaf extract. In conclusion, Mimosa pudica had ameliorative effect against mosquito repellant induced injury in the lungs.

Abstract:
The community has trusted mimosa pudica linn as an alternative antidiabetic treatment. Compounds that have antidiabetic activity in Mimosa pudica linn are flavonoids, alkaloids, and tannins. The selection of effervescent tablet dosage formulations is practical for diabetics with the addition of stevia leaf sweeteners. This study aimed to determine the antidiabetic activity of effervescent tablets of Mimosa pudica linn leaves extract as a natural antidiabetic. The research method begins with the extraction of plants using the maceration method of 70% ethanol; the tablet formulation uses dry granulation. Antidiabetic activity test using 28 male mice (Mus musculus) Swiss strain divided into four groups, namely group I (negative control): Na-CMC 0.5%, group II: effervescent tablets of Mimosa pudica Linn leaves Extract dose 600 mg/kgBB, group III (positive control): metformin 65 mg/kgBB, group IV (normal control): feed and drink. Each group, except normal controls, was induced by DM using alloxan 150 mg/kg body weight. Data on decreased blood glucose levels were analyzed using the Kruskal-Wallis statistical test the study results show that effervescent tablets meet the parameters of disperse time test, pH test, size uniformity test, weight uniformity test, hardness test, moisture test, and friability test. This study concludes is that there is a significant difference between the negative, positive, normal, and treatment control groups, which means that the administration of effervescent tablets of 70% ethanol extract of Mimosa pudica Linn leaves at a dose of 600 mg/kgBB can reduce blood sugar levels in mice (Mus musculus).

Abstract:
Ethnopharmacological relevance: Traditionally, Mimosa pudica Linn. (Fabaceae) is used for its anti-inflammatory, sedative, anxiolytic, antioxidant and antifatigue properties. Aim: To determine the antifatigue effects of Mimosa pudica aqueous extracts in experimental model of weight loaded force swimming test. Materials and methods: Mice were divided into seven groups and treated for 28 consecutive days as follows: groups one and two received orally distilled water (10 mL/kg) and served as normal group and negative control group, respectively. Groups three to six, (test groups) received orally graded doses of Mimosa pudica (20, 40, 80 and 160 mg/kg) and group seven (positive control) received vitamin C (50 mg/kg), respectively. One hour after the treatment, mice were subjected to the weight loaded force swimming test with tail load, except for the normal group; and the swimming duration, body weight, food and water intake were measured. Twenty-four hours after the last treatment the serum level of noradrenaline, dopamine and serotonin, and the relative organs weight were measured. Results: Mimosa pudica aqueous extracts significantly and dose-dependently increased the swimming duration and the weight of heart and lungs. The extracts did not induce a significant variation in the level of food and water intake, body weight, and serum of noradrenaline, dopamine and serotonin. Conclusion: Pretreatment of mice with Mimosa pudica aqueous extracts was observed to have better antifatigue properties mediated via amelioration of swimming capacity and physical aptitude in the weight loaded force swimming model.

Abstract:
Mimosa carolina (Leguminosae), a new species from the Parque Nacional Chapada das Mesas, located in the northern limit of the Brazilian Cerrado, is described and illustrated. In addition, a phylogenetic reconstruction was performed to recover the position of this species in relation to the main clades of the genus Mimosa. This new species is assigned to sect. Habbasia ser. Bipinnatae and exhibits relevant morphological differences with all described species of this series, most notably the prostate habit, glabrous stems, and absence of internal spicules. Our results indicate that this new entity is clearly nested in a strongly supported clade with other striated-corolla species of ser. Bipinnatae. Therefore, ser. Bipinnatae appears to be monophyletic, and a morphologically and ecologically cohesive group within Mimosa. An updated identification key for this series is provided.

Abstract:
Mimosa Pudica L. is one of the plants that can be used as a traditional medicine which can be used also as analgesic and anti-inflammatory. In the studies of acute toxicity test, Mimosa Pudica L did not cause toxic. This study aimed to investigate the sub-chronic toxicity of Mimosa Pudica L to the spleen index and histology of the spleen of mice which included the observation of follicular diameter and the center of the germ. This test method referred to the OECD 407 (1995) conducted for 28 days with 7 treatment groups and consist of 1 control group , 3 treatment groups and three groups of satellites with a dose of 400 mg / kg , 600 mg / kg and 900 mg / kg. In the satellite group, there was an advance observation for 14 days without any treatment to see whether there was an effect of improvement or not. The results showed that the average value of the index spleen was getting smaller. The data were analyzed with test of homogenety of variances (levene test) showed a similarity of data variance between groups (P > 0.050). The mean value of the index spleen showed there was no significant difference between groups (P > 0.05). The highest mean value of the follicle diameter was in the negative control. Data was analyzed by non- parametric tests Kruskal - Wallis because it did not show the similarity of variance (P < 0.05). The results showed that there was no significant difference between groups (P > 0.05). The satellite group with the dose of 600 mg / kg gave the effect of improvement on the center germinal diameter. The results of the study conveniently indicated that there was no significant difference between groups (P > 0.05). The conclusion of this study was the ethanol extract of the herb Mimosa Pudica L. orally did not leave a distinct meaningful difference or did not affect the spleen index and picture spleen histology.

Abstract:
Taxonomic studies of Mimosa subser. Polycephalae revealed a new species and indicated the need for taxonomic and nomenclatural adjustments in the group. Mimosa pseudoracemosa is described and illustrated as a new species from Goiás State in central-western Brazil. We discuss its geographic distribution, environmental preferences, phenology and conservation status and compare it with the morphologically similar M. pseudoradula and M. flavocaesia. A new status for M. pseudoradula var. detonsa and a new name are proposed (= M. detonsa), including M. pseudoradula var. anapolitana and M. pseudoradula var. crystallites as its synonyms, as well an updated circumscription for M. pseudoradula without the admission of varieties. We also present descriptions, images, maps, comments on their distributions and morphological relationships, flowering and fruiting periods, and conservation statuses. In addition to the morphological and geographic discontinuities of the aforementioned taxa, their trichome micromorphology supported the establishment of the new species, as well as the taxonomic decisions involving M. pseudoradula.

Abstract:
Mimosa pudica Linn is an ornamental perennial herb belonging to the taxonomic group of Magnoliopsida and family Leguminaceae. Besides its ornamental use, Mimosa pudica is also a popular plant among folk healers to treat several diseases including bleeding disorders such as menorrhagia, dysentry with blood, mucus and piles, and wound healing. In this study, roots of Mimosa pudica was successively extracted with hexane, ethyl acetate, and methanol to evaluate the folkloric assert of plant in view of antioxidant, antibacterial, and wound healing potential. Methanolic extract showed concentration dependent elevation in inhibition for radical scavenging assay following dpph with maximum effect of 73.43% against standard ascorbic acid equivalent to 250 µg/ml, however IC50 of extract with n-hexane and ethyl acetate exhibited relatively poor antioxidant efficacy. Minimum inhibitory concentration demonstrated higher inhibitory action in range of 1.25-0.625 mg/ml against tested gram positive Staphylococcus aureus -MTCC737, and Bacillus subtilis-MTCC110 and 2.5 mg/ml for gram negative Salmonella typhi-MTCC15442, Escherichia coli-MTCC118 micro-organism for methanolic extract compared to ethyl acetate extract, however hexane extract showed MIC > 2.5 mg/ml. Among the tested solvent system for column chromatography, fractionation with diethyl ether: methanol (1:4) demonstrated single clear spot with Rf value 0.72 for methanolic extract indicated presence of flavonoid as major phytoconstituents. The results of spectral analysis following fourier transform spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance, and mass spectroscopy for purified isolated compound confirmed identity of isolated flavonoid from methanolic fraction with chemical name 7,8,3’,4’-tetrahydroxy-6-methoxy-flavone. Thus, overall results demonstrated that Mimosa pudica root extract have potential antioxidant and antimicrobial efficacy. Furthermore, the Mimosa pudica root extracted with n-hexane followed by methanol fortified in a pharmaceutical formulation ointment base demonstrated excellent wound healing efficacy compared to marketed povidone-iodine ointment. Therefore, traditional claim for the use of Mimosa pudica root as potential antioxidant, antimicrobial, and wound healer in topical drug delivery have been proven by the present study.

Abstract:
5522^ Background: Metformin, has recently shown some anti-cancer activities in ovarian cancer, both in vitro and in vivo. Methods: Analysis of Recurrence Free Survival (RFS) and Overall Survival (OS) was performed in patients (pts) with diabetes (D) treated with metformin (DMet+) or not (DMet-) enrolled in the MIMOSA trial, a randomized double-blind placebo-controlled international trial of Abagovomab maintenance therapy in 888 pts with advanced ovarian cancer. In the MIMOSA trial, no differences in the RFS and OS were observed between Abagovomab (n = 593) and Placebo arm (n = 295); hence, the present RFS and OS analysis (DMet+ vs DMet-) was run regardless of treatment allocation. A Cox proportional hazards model was used for adjusting the analysis for the predefined prognostic factors: Figo stage (III, IV), tumor size after debulking (residual tumor <1 cm, >1cm); CA125 serum level after 3th cycle (<35U/ml, >35U/ml). In addition, comparison of RFS and OS was done between DMet+and the overall MIMOSA population not exposed to metformin (ALLMet-), and between the overall diabetic pts (ALLD+) and non-diabetic pts (ALLD-). Results: In the ALL population (n = 888), 42 pts were affected by diabetes (ALLD+) divided to DMet+ (n = 27) and DMet- (n = 15), without difference in the prognostic factors distribution. When analysis was done in ALLD+, RFS median time was not reached in the DMet+ group whereas it was 328 days [CI: 30-660] in DMet- group with HR favoring DMet+=0.419 [CI:0.175-1.002]; p = 0.05. Median OS time was also not reached in the DMet+ group whereas it was 786 days [CI:262-NE] in DMet- group with HR=0.295 [CI:0.109-0.803]; p = 0.02. Interestingly HR for RFS time was still in favour of DMet+ group when compared to the ALLMet- (n=861) with HR=0.575 (CI=0.324-1.022); p = 0.06. When ALLD+ were compared with ALLD-(n = 846), no significant differences was detected in RFS and OS time. Conclusions: The present results are the first prospectively analyzed data demonstrating a favourable impact of metformin treatment on RFS and OS in pts affected by advanced ovarian cancer.

Abstract:
Czech hop varieties were evaluated as part of maintenance breeding. The evaluation was performed in a single location between 2011 and 2020. The average weight of hop essential oils (HEOs) is 0.43 to 2.28% w/w. The Saaz, Saaz Brilliant, Mimosa, Saaz Shine and Saaz Comfort hop varieties have a low amount of HEOs. Their maximum content of these compounds amounts to 1.1% w/w. The average proportion of myrcene is between 23.42 and 45.14% rel. Only the Agnus, Vital and Boomerang hop varieties have the maximum myrcene proportion above 50% rel. The average share of caryophyllene ranges between 6.19 and 13.15% rel. Saaz Late has a broad range of caryophyllene percentage – from 5.39% rel. to 15.53% rel. The average percenatge of farnesene is between 0.14 and 16.91% rel. Only the Saaz Comfort and Saaz Shine hop varieties have the maximum farnesene share above 20% rel. The average humulene content has a very broad range between 2.23 and 35.79% rel. The Vital, Mimosa, Gaia and Saaz Comfort hop varieties are in a group with a low humulene percentage, which is clearly different from other hop varieties. The average share of selinenes ranges broadly from 0.97 to 33.56% rel. Mimosa differs from the before mentioned varieties with its proportion of selinenes between 23.08 and 43.75% rel. The aim was to characterize and compare Czech hop varieties in terms of content and composition of HEOs.

Abstract:
Caatinga, the Brazilian tropical dry forest and source of endemic species, suffers anthropic disturbances that are responsible for affecting plants and their functional traits. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the plasticity woody species’ leaf traits due to abiotic conditions of preserved and anthropized areas in Caatinga. The study took place in Vale do Riacho São José, in the municipality of Caetés, Pernambuco, Brazil. The selected species were Mimosa tenuiflora, Mimosa arenosa and Senna sp., all belonging to the Fabaceae family. We measured gas exchange, water content, specific leaf area and phenotypic plasticity index of all selected species in both areas. For all species, stomatal conductance was higher in preserved areas, but photosynthesis followed this pattern only for Senna sp. which also showed lower water use efficiency among all species. Furthermore, Senna sp. presented the highest relative water content in preserved areas, and showed no differences in specific leaf area between preserved and anthropized areas. The plasticity index showed that Senna sp. were the most plastic species, mainly adjusting water content and gas exchange parameters according to the area. The less plastic species was Mimosa arenosa. A principal component analysis showed a group formation due to anthropization, for all species. However, Senna sp. showed the largest distance among species. We conclude that all analyzed species respond to environmental conditions of preserved and anthropized areas, but this pattern cannot be related to the characteristics of the botanical family due to species-specific leaf traits’ variations.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Kota Bangun is a subdistrict located in Kutai Kartanegara which has a large amount of swamp peat area. The area is commonly used for agricultural purposes. Nevertheless, a group of invasive plant species, Mimosa pigra, has been found with high domination in the area. Due to its characteristics, this species usually disturbs some farmer activities, especially when farmers did the land clearing process. Its high spread influences serious problems because it is considered one of the non commercial species. To solve the problems, technological innovation to utilize the M. pigra biomass is required. Therefore, we conducted a socialization to introduce the production process of charcoal with premium quality on a communal scale. We developed a standard operating procedure and accompanied them step-by-step until the charcoal product was successfully produced. The results showed that the farmers were enthusiastic when they joined the socialization. They were eager to implement the simulation steps. The charcoal product also had excellent properties for use as fuel, a material for water filtration from a nearby river or swamp in order to produce clean water and product charcoal. Keywords: Biomass, community training, premium charcoal, Mimosa pigra. ABSTRAK Kota Bangun merupakan salah satu dari lima kecamatan di Kabupaten Kutai Kartanegara yang memiliki lahan rawa gambut yang luas. Lahan rawa gambut ini umumnya digunakan sebagai lahan pertanian oleh masyarakat. Namun demikian, lahan tersebut banyak ditumbuhi Mimosa pigra yang tergolong invasif dan tumbuh mendominasi. Keberadaan tumbuhan ini sangat dikeluhkan masyarakat terutama para petani, sebab menyulitkan petani saat proses pembukaan lahan pertanian mereka. Serta belum adanya upaya pemanfaatan tumbuhan ini oleh masyarkat sehingga menyebabkan tidak terkendalinya pertumbuhan jenis ini. Berdasarkan permasalah tersebut, maka diperlukan adanya inovasi berupa pemanfaatan biomassa Mimosa pigra yang selama ini dianggap sebagai gulma untuk menekan pertumbuhanya yang masif dan mengganggu proses pembukaan lahan pertanian. Dalam merealisasikan inovasi tersebut, tim melakukan sosialisasi berupa pengenalan produksi arang premium dengan menggunakan seperangkat modul sebagai panduan, kemudian dilanjutkan dengan proses pelatihan dan pendampingan pembuatan arang premium. Hasil pelatihan menunjukkan antusiasme dari para peserta pelatihan. Hal ini terlihat dari semangat peserta untuk mempraktekkan proses simulasi. Adapun produk arang yang dihasilkan memiliki kualitas yang baik dan dapat digunakan sebagai bahan bakar, proses filterisasi air sungai/rawa sehingga layak digunakan sebagai sumber air bersih serta produk turunan arang lainnya. Kata kunci: Arang premium, Biomasa, Mimosa pigra, pelatihan masyarakat

Abstract:
Objective Exposure of dichlorvos-contaminated foods, water and environment can lead to decrease in proper liver function. Thus, Mimosa pudica(MP)is being investigated in the present study to determine its protective effect on dichlorvos induced hepatotoxity in Mice. Methods Fifty adult male BALB/c mice weighing between 20-30g were randomly assigned into 5 groups of 10 animals each (Groups A, B, C, D, and E). Group A as the control Group received normal feed, group B received 0.1 ml of MP, group C was given 40 g of 2.5% Dichlorvos (DDVP) for 28 days. While, group D were given 40 g of 2.5% DDVP with 0.1ml of MP and group E animals were given DDVP for half the period of administration, normal feed and 0.1ml MP for 14 days. Histological and biochemical preparations of the liver were processed and data were expressed as mean± SEM. Significant difference was set at p<0.05. Results ALT activity and the total protein level of the liver show no significant increase (P < 0.005) when compared with the control. AST and ALP activities were significantly increased in animals given DDVP with subsequent MP treatment when compared with the controls. Histological studies revealed distortion of normal hepatic histoarchitecture in DDVP group B and MP groups mitigated these changes in the treated groups. Conclusion Dichlorvos caused tissue distortion in the mice with prominent toxic effects on the liver while MP extract showed ameliorative effects on the liver that was exposed to DDVP

Abstract:
The objective of this work was to characterize nutritional parameters of bee pollens from plant species occurring in a semiarid region, in Picos, state of Piaui, Brazil. Bee pollen samples were collected from the experimental apiary of the Study Group on Bees from the Semiarid Region of Piaui (GEASPI/UFPI) and subjected to melissopalynological analysis to determine their botanical origins, and bromatological analysis (crude protein, lipids, fibers, and ash) in the Laboratory of Animal Nutrition of the Department of Zootechnics of the Federal University of Piaui (UFPI), in Teresina, Piaui (DZO/UFPI/Teresina). Six plant species (Aspilia sp., Senna obtusifolia,Mimosa pudica L., Cupheaericoides, Croton sp., and Mimosa caesalpiniifolia) were predominant for bee pollen production in the study area. Therefore, the nutritional compositions of the pollen produced in the Caatinga area varied according to their botanical origin, as shown by the crude protein (20.75% to 38.18%), fiber (0.53% to 1.37%), lipid (0.49% to 4.7%), and total mineral (2.56 to 4.17%) contents. Bromatological parameters also varied according to the botanical origin of the pollens evaluated. The study region has considerable diversity of pollinator plant species that provide bee pollens with a wide spectrum of nutritional characteristics.

Abstract:
Benign prostatic hyperplasia, a non-cancerous condition of unknown etiology, is the most common prostatic disease in men globally. The present study investigated the possible ameliorative effects of aqueous extracts of Mimosa pudica on experimentally-induced prostatic hyperplasia in Wistar rats. Twenty adult, male Wistar rats weighing 120-180 g were randomly divided into four groups (A, B, C, D) of five animals each. Group A, normal control, was given corn oil only; Group B rats were hormone-treated. Groups C and D rats were hormone and extract treated, and received continuous doses of 300 μg and 80 μg of testosterone and estradiol, respectively, on alternate days for three weeks subcutaneously in the inguinal region. The extract-treated rats received an additional 400 mg/kg b. w and 800 mg/kg b. w. of M. pudica orally for another four weeks. Immediately after induction of benign prostatic hypertrophy, some animals were randomly selected and sacrificed for gross inspection of prostate enlargement, prostate specific antigen analysis (PSA) and sperm count evaluation. These procedures were repeated again after four weeks of extract treatment. The prostates were excised and processed routinely for paraffin embedding and stained with hematoxylin and eosin (H&E). Results obtained showed significant (P<0.05) reduction in PSA levels, increase in sperm count and also a reversal of histological hyperplastic changes.

The aim of the study was to evaluate antipyretic, analgesic and anti-inflammatory activities of the methanol extract of Mimosa himalayana Gamble (Fabaceae) along with a preliminary phytochemical screening. The antipyretic and analgesic effects were tested in Swiss mice, while anti-inflammatory in egg albumin, taking paracetamol, diclofenac sodium and acetyl salicylic acid as standards, respectively. The results suggest that, the crude stem extract of M. himalayana revealed the presence of alkaloids, glycosides, saponins and gums. It exhibited antipyretic and analgesic activity at 200 and 400 mg/kg, while anti-inflammatory at 40, 80 and 160 µg/mL in the test systems. The activities were significant (p <0.05) in comparison to the negative control group with a high dose/concentration-mediated higher response manner. We suppose the alkaloids and glycosides may contribute its anti-inflammatory potential, which may link to the antipyretic and analgesic effects of the M. himalayana. In conclusion, M. himalayana may be one of the best sources of plant-based medicines, especially anti-inflammatory agents.

ABSTRACT Mimosa caesalpiniifolia Benth. (Fabaceae) is a native tree of the dry tropical forests of northeastern Brazil and can be exploited for logging and reforestation purposes. This study evaluated the physiological quality of seeds and the genetic diversity of a cultivated population of M. caesalpiniifolia, against the background of potential commercial seed production. Nine trees were used in the study. The quality of their seeds was evaluated by germination and vigour tests, and their genetic diversity was accessed using Inter Simple Sequence Repeat (ISSR). The studied tree group presents a moderate genetic diversity and produces seeds with high physiological quality, but with subtle vigour differences, which can be detected by electrical conductivity and potassium leaching tests. Our results suggest that these trees are potentially suitable for commercial seed production.

Abstract:
Pyroligneous extract of Jurema preta (Mimosa tenuiflora [Willd.] Poiret) was evaluated for its efficacy as a cutaneous antiseptic in cats (Felis catus) that were subjected to ovariosalpingohysterectomy. For this purpose, 30 cats without a defined breed were sterilized and divided into two groups. The first group was the positive control, treated with 0.5% chlorhexidine-alcohol solution, and the second group was treated with 20% pyroligneous extract of M. tenuiflora. Regardless of age and sex, all animals had visible healing at similar times. A significant reduction in bacterial growth was observed in animals treated with the extract, and no cytotoxicity was observed in the feline epithelial cells. In addition, surgical wounds of cats treated with M. tenuiflora extract exhibited improved healing. On agar plates, treatment with both chlorhexidine and M. tenuiflora extract resulted in the inhibition zones for all bacterial strains isolated from surgical wounds. Therefore, M. tenuiflora extract is demonstrated to have antiseptic effects on the surgical wounds of cats undergoing ovariosalpingohysterectomy.

AbstractThe aim of this study was to evaluate the preventive and/or protective action of Mimosa caesalpiniifolia (M. caesalpiniifolia) following experimental colitis in rats. The rats were randomized into ten groups (n=10 per group), as follows: G1 – Sham group:; G2 – TNBS group; G3, G4 –colitis and treated with hydroalcoholic extract of M. caesalpiniifolia 250 mg/kg/day after and before/after inducing colitis, respectively; G5, G6 – colitis and treated with hydroalcoholic extract of M. caesalpiniifolia at 125 mg/kg/day after and before/after inducing colitis respectively; G7,G8 – colitis and treated with ethylacetate fraction of M. caesalpiniifolia at 50 mg/kg/day after and before/after inducing colitis, respectively; G9,G10 – colitis and treated with ethylacetate fraction of M. caesalpiniifolia at 50 mg/kg/day after and before/after inducing colitis, respectively. Rats treated with hydroalcoholic extract of M. caesalpiniifolia for both doses showed lower tissue damage in the distal colon. Ethylacetate fraction was effective at the highest dose only when administrated after inducing colitis. A downregulation of COX-2 was detected to rats suffering colitis and treated with M. caesalpiniifolia at high dose. On the other hand, TNF-alpha immunoexpression decreased in groups treated with M. caesalpiniifolia at low dose after inducing colitis. In summary, our results suggest that M. caesalpiniifolia attenuated the lesions of the colon, reduced inflammation, and modulates the expression of COX-2 and TNF-α during chronic colitis induced by TNBS when using for therapeutic purposes on a dose-dependent manner.

Abstract:
The study on macrobenthic community structures was carried out in the offshore area of Mimika district, Papua in 2005. Steep mountain slopes and some of the highest rainfall rates in the world, have generated tremendous sediment loads that have settled in the alluvial plain and been carried out into the estuaries and the Arafura Sea, creating a massive area of deposited natural sediments. The objective of this study was to determine how the benthic community structures of the offshore area (Arafura Sea) changes as a result of environmental conditions. To accomplish the objective, samples were collected from 40 stations which were divided into 4 contours (layers) of water depth, i.e. 5, 10, 20 and 40 m. Stations of each contour depth were established perpendicular to the river mouths of Mimika district. The results showed the bottom sediments were mostly silt-clay fractions except the deeper area (40 m depth) which was dominated by very fine sand fraction. Diversity indices, Shannon index (H') and Pielou's evenness (e) index ranged from 1.00-3.50 and 0.20-0.92 respectively. These indices tended to increase in the deeper areas. In total 266 species of macro-benthos were collected from the study area. Contrary to this, the densities tended to decrease in deeper areas with the range of 195.00 — 4110.00 individualsm-2. Polychaetes was the the dominant group, 50.80 — 71.80 % of the total family of macrobenthos. Among the macrobenthos, there were some families and group of taxa which had high densities such as Sipuncula, Nemertea and crustaceans including Ampeliscidae, Gammaridae and Israeidae. Among the polychaete group were the families Spionidae, Owenidae, Sternaspidae, Cossuridae, Capitellidae, Nephtyidae, Magelonidae and Pilargidae. Based on density, macrobenthos of the study area shows relatively high production. High rates of sedimentation of Ajkwa estuary does not influence the structure of macrobenthic communities in the offshore area.

<p class="Abstract">The aim of present investigation was to validate its folk use in the treatment of ulcerative colitis in the rat model. Sprague Dawley rats were divided into nine groups with six animals in each group. The rats received seven days of pretreatment with chloroform, ethyl acetate or ethanolic extract of <em>Mimosa pudica</em>. For induction of ulcerative colitis, rats were administered with 2 mL of 4% acetic acid solution intrarectally. Ulcer index, macroscopical study of the colon, myeloperoxidase and malondialdehyde levels in colon tissue and blood, and histopathology of the colon tissue were studied. Intrarectal instillation of acetic acid caused increased ulcer index, colonic myeloperoxidase and malondialdehyde. Pretreatment with <em>M. pudica</em> ethanolic extract (400 mg/kg) significantly lowered the ulcer index, colonic myeloperoxidase and malondialdehyde as compared with the standard drug prednisolone. The present investigation demonstrates that the ethanol extract of <em>M. pudica</em> leaf is effective in the treatment of ulcerative colitis.</p><p class="Abstract"><strong>Video Clip of Methodology:</strong></p><p class="Abstract">Embedding or block making: 24 sec <a href="https://www.youtube.com/v/Y1I4tKYMLsE">Full Screen</a> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y1I4tKYMLsE">Alternate</a></p><p class="Abstract">Tissue processing: 19 sec <a href="https://www.youtube.com/v/7nYpxL2qPhg">Full Screen</a> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7nYpxL2qPhg">Alternate</a></p><p class="Abstract">Section cutting: 33 sec <a href="https://www.youtube.com/v/_amFL9kNLBw">Full Screen</a> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_amFL9kNLBw">Alternate</a></p>

Abstract:
Dense activity and with increasing age experienced by each community, is one of the causes of decreased sleep quality and trigger sleep disorders. The use of medicinal plants is increasingly in the community such as Sensistive plant leaves. This study aims to determine the sensitive plants and to know the comparison of the work activities of the sensitive plants leaves with a deep sleep. This research was an experimental study with a complete random design in a unidirectional pattern. Test animals used 15 male mice, divided into 5 groups randomly consisting of 3 animals. First Group was given a 0.5% CMC suspension, Second group was given a deep suspension, Third group was given an sensitive plants leaves extract with 5% concentration, fourth group was given an sensitive plants leaves extract of 10% concentration, fifth group was given an sensitive plants leaves extract of 20%. Data obtained by Anova test, followed by Duncan's different test to see the real difference in each experimental group. Administration of sensitive plants leaves extract of 5% leaves did not make a significant difference with sleep, but at a concentration of 10%, 20% gave a significant difference with sedative test on mice that were given a deep sleep. Suspension of sensitive plants leave has a sedative effect on mice, at a concentration of 10%, 20% has the same sedative effect as deep sleep, and research needs to be done on other parts of the sensitive plants leaves that has a stronger sedative effect.

AbstractThe external morphology of last instar larvae of Phauda mimica Strand, 1915, from Taiwan is described. The slug-like larvae are glossy brownish white in coloration. Dorsally they are covered by a tergal cap consisting of a dense mesh of irregularly interwoven silk fibres with additional cellular elements and hardened incrustations. This peculiar structure is not known from other Lepidoptera. According to the present morphological findings, the genus (along with allied genera) does probably not belong to the Zygaenidae, as hitherto suggested, but rather represents the sister group of the limacodid-group families currently comprising the (Megalopygidae/Somabrachyidae + (Aididae + (Dalceridae + Limacodidae))).

Abstract:
Two extracts derived from plant material rich in hydrolysable (Tara, T; Caesalpinia spinosa) or condensed (Mimosa, M; Acacia mearnsii) tannins were added to lamb’s diet and their effects on meat quality and on microbial population were evaluated; a diet without tannins represented the Control (C). Meat pH, vitamin E, intramuscular fat content and muscle fatty acid composition were determined. Oxidative stability and microbiological analyses were performed on meat samples after 0, 4 and 7 days of refrigerated storage. Psychrotrophic bacteria were identified through MALDI-TOF MS analysis. Regarding meat fatty acids, Tara treatment decreased the percentage of monounsaturated fatty acids. The counts of all microbial groups were similar among dietary treatments at day 0, while a significant reduction of microbial loads was observed in T-group at day 7. Pseudomonas fluorescens group count was significantly affected by T extract supplementation. The MALDI-TOF MS identification revealed the dominance of Pseudomonas fragi species in all samples while Pseudomonas lundensis, Brochothrix thermosphacta and Candida famata were revealed only in control ones. In conclusions, the tannin extract supplementation is a promising dietary strategy to preserve lamb meat quality.

Abstract:
Although continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is the first-line treatment for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), its cardiometabolic benefits are questionable. Our aim was to explore whether the combination of a weight-loss Mediterranean diet/lifestyle intervention with OSA standard care leads to greater cardiometabolic improvements compared with standard care alone. We randomly assigned 187 adult, overweight, polysomnography-diagnosed moderate-to-severe OSA patients to a standard care group (SCG, n = 65), a Mediterranean diet group (MDG, n = 62) or a Mediterranean lifestyle group (MLG, n = 60). All three groups were prescribed with CPAP. Additionally, the SCG only received brief written healthy lifestyle advice, while intervention arms were subjected to a six-month weight-loss behavioral intervention based on the Mediterranean diet. The MLG also received guidance for improving physical activity and sleep habits. Glucose metabolism indices, blood lipids, liver enzymes and blood pressure improved only in intervention arms, and were significantly lower compared to the SCG post-intervention (all p < 0.05). The age-, sex-, baseline- and CPAP use-adjusted relative risk (95% confidence interval) of metabolic syndrome was 0.58 (0.34–0.99) for the MDG and 0.30 (0.17–0.52) for the MLG compared to the SCG. The MLG additionally presented a lower relative risk of metabolic syndrome compared to the MDG (0.52 (0.30–0.89)). After further adjustment for body-weight change, a lower relative risk of metabolic syndrome was still evident for the MLG compared to the SCG. In conclusion, although standard care alone does not improve OSA patients’ cardiometabolic profile, its combination with a weight-loss Mediterranean diet/lifestyle intervention leads to significant cardiometabolic benefits.

Abstract:
Purpose: To investigate the toxicity, clinical outcome and anthelmintic effects of M. pudica in vitro and in vivo.Methods: Dried leaves of M. pudica were extracted using 70 % methanol cold maceration method. Acute toxicity inquiry was evaluated using Lorke’s method. Anthelmintic effects were investigated in vitro using the egg hatch assay and in vivo using Heligmosomoides bakeri experimentally infected adult albino mice. Coprological and haematological parameters were recorded during the experiment while the serological analysis and post mortem worm burden were assessed at the conclusion of the research.Results: No mortality was recorded in oral acute toxicity test up to a dose of 5000 mg/kg. A probit-log analysis of the percentage egg hatch of the extract and albendazole gave lethal concentration 50 (LC50) values of 1.160 and -1.042, respectively. A reduction in worm count was observed in all the extracttreated groups post mortem, with the maximum extract group having the least worm count (p < 0.05). Treatment with extract resulted in improvement in the haematological parameters. Serum chemistry revealed no significant differences (p > 0.05) in alanine aminotransferase and blood urea nitrogen in all groups. However, a dose-dependent increases in the total protein and albumin was observed.Conclusion: These results show that although M. pudica has weak anthelmintic effects compared to albendazole (standard anthelmintic), in vivo and in vitro, at the doses used in this study, nonetheless, it reduces worm burden and improves haematologic parameters, serum total protein, albumin and overall weight gain of the treated mice. Thus, increased doses may be effective in anthelmintic chemotherapy. Keywords: Mimosa pudica, Anthelmintic, Toxicity, Heligmosomoides bakeri, Ethnoveterinary medicine, Anthelmintic

Genes 9, no. 8 (August 1, 2018): 389. http://dx.doi.org/10.3390/genes9080389.

Abstract:
Burkholderia sensu lato is a large and complex group, containing pathogenic, phytopathogenic, symbiotic and non-symbiotic strains from a very wide range of environmental (soil, water, plants, fungi) and clinical (animal, human) habitats. Its taxonomy has been evaluated several times through the analysis of 16S rRNA sequences, concantenated 4–7 housekeeping gene sequences, and lately by genome sequences. Currently, the division of this group into Burkholderia, Caballeronia, Paraburkholderia, and Robbsia is strongly supported by genome analysis. These new genera broadly correspond to the various habitats/lifestyles of Burkholderia s.l., e.g., all the plant beneficial and environmental (PBE) strains are included in Paraburkholderia (which also includes all the N2-fixing legume symbionts) and Caballeronia, while most of the human and animal pathogens are retained in Burkholderia sensu stricto. However, none of these genera can accommodate two important groups of species. One of these includes the closely related Paraburkholderia rhizoxinica and Paraburkholderia endofungorum, which are both symbionts of the fungal phytopathogen Rhizopus microsporus. The second group comprises the Mimosa-nodulating bacterium Paraburkholderia symbiotica, the phytopathogen Paraburkholderia caryophylli, and the soil bacteria Burkholderia dabaoshanensis and Paraburkholderia soli. In order to clarify their positions within Burkholderia sensu lato, a phylogenomic approach based on a maximum likelihood analysis of conserved genes from more than 100 Burkholderia sensu lato species was carried out. Additionally, the average nucleotide identity (ANI) and amino acid identity (AAI) were calculated. The data strongly supported the existence of two distinct and unique clades, which in fact sustain the description of two novel genera Mycetohabitans gen. nov. and Trinickia gen. nov. The newly proposed combinations are Mycetohabitans endofungorum comb. nov., Mycetohabitansrhizoxinica comb. nov., Trinickia caryophylli comb. nov., Trinickiadabaoshanensis comb. nov., Trinickia soli comb. nov., and Trinickiasymbiotica comb. nov. Given that the division between the genera that comprise Burkholderia s.l. in terms of their lifestyles is often complex, differential characteristics of the genomes of these new combinations were investigated. In addition, two important lifestyle-determining traits—diazotrophy and/or symbiotic nodulation, and pathogenesis—were analyzed in depth i.e., the phylogenetic positions of nitrogen fixation and nodulation genes in Trinickia via-à-vis other Burkholderiaceae were determined, and the possibility of pathogenesis in Mycetohabitans and Trinickia was tested by performing infection experiments on plants and the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. It is concluded that (1) T. symbiotica nif and nod genes fit within the wider Mimosa-nodulating Burkholderiaceae but appear in separate clades and that T. caryophyllinif genes are basal to the free-living Burkholderia s.l. strains, while with regard to pathogenesis (2) none of the Mycetohabitans and Trinickia strains tested are likely to be pathogenic, except for the known phytopathogen T. caryophylli.

Introduction: Problems that arise in a person with HIV/AIDS status are related to disease conditions and psychosocial conditions that can affect psychological well-being. One form of intervention that can improve psychological well-being is Group Positive Psychotherapy. The present study aimed to investigate the effect of implementing positive group psychotherapy in improving the psychological well-being of people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) in the working area of the Timika Jaya Health Center, Mimika Regency. Method: This is a quasi-experimental research with the One Groups Pretest-Posttest Design technique approach. Respondents were pretested before the group positive psychotherapy treatment with counseling and education methods. Upon completing the treatment, a posttest was administered. The population of this study was the entire community of PLWHA in the working area of the Timika Jaya Public Health Center with 27 people for a total sampling technique. Data analysis used Chi-Square Test and Paired Samples T-Test. Based on the results of the analysis using paired sample t-test, p-value = 0.000 <α means that there is a significant difference in psychological well-being in PLWHA before and after 1 month of positive group psychotherapy intervention. Result: Furthermore, from 1 month of group positive psychotherapy intervention to the next 2 months, p = 0.000, and before the second group positive psychotherapy intervention, p = 0.000. Overall, there was a significant difference in the improvement of psychological well-being before and after the group positive psychotherapy intervention. Conclusion: Group positive psychotherapy effectively improves psychological well-being for people with HIV/AIDS.

Abstract:
Rice blast disease has become endemic in Purwoasri Village, Gumukmas District, Jember since 2018; this was due to the use of the Ciherang variety planted continuously. The study aimed to use the indigenous microorganisms (IM) suspension from Mimosa invisa roots, made by farmers from Pos Pelayanan Agens Hayati (PPAH, Biological Agent Service Post) in Ambulu District as the control agent for blast pathogens and increased rice production. The roots of rice seeds were dipped in IM suspension at a concentration of 50 mL/L for 2 hours to penetrate to roots. Seedlings with IM were planted in a block of 250 m2, and control was also planted in the same block size. In the IM-treated block, the incidence and severity of blast disease decreased compared to the control. The root treated by IM dipping was also increased the plant growth, including root architecture, root length, root volume, and the number of tillers/plant; furthermore, it improved the rice production. It was found that IM suspension contained pseudomonad fluorescent and Bacillussp. that belong to Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR) group.
