Development of peptone-based serum-free media to support Vero CCL-81 cell proliferation and optimize SARS-CoV2 viral production.

Background: Developing an optimal media for Vero cell lines is crucial as it directly influences cell survival, proliferation, and virus production. The use of serum in cell culture raises safety concerns in biological production. The United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the European Medicines Agency have implemented stricter regulations on the use of animal-derived components in commercial protein manufacturing to ensure patient safety.

Acceleration of wound healing using adipose mesenchymal stem cell secretome hydrogel on partial-thickness cutaneous thermal burn wounds: An study in rats.

Background And Aim: The intricate healing process involves distinct sequential and overlapping phases in thermal injury. To maintain the zone of stasis in Jackson's burn wound model, proper wound intervention is essential. The extent of research on the histoarchitecture of thermal wound healing and the application of mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-free-based therapy is limited.

Inactivation of an Indonesian isolate of foot-and-mouth disease virus using formaldehyde.

Background And Aim: Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) is a highly contagious viral disease that endangers livestock and the environment with significant economic consequences. This study aimed to validate the inactivation of the Indonesian isolate of foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) with various formaldehyde concentration.

Materials And Methods: The experiment started with FMDV being adapted on BHK-21 cells until cytopathic effects (CPE) appeared.

Inactivated SARS-CoV-2 vaccine candidate immunization on non-human primate animal model: B-cell and T-cell responses immune evaluation.

Background: SARS-CoV-2 vaccine was proven to be an effective and efficient measure for mitigating pandemic. COVID-19 infection and mortality subsided along with the increaseing COVID-19 vaccination coverage. Vaccine and health resource equity are predominant factors in COVID-19 pandemic management.

Adipose Mesenchymal Stem Cell Metabolites Oral Gel Enhance Pro-Angiogenic Factors Expression, Angiogenesis, and Clinical Outcome of Oral Ulcer Rat Model.

Objective:  Enhancing wound healing capacity is one of the main principles in oral ulcer management. Efficient oral ulcer management will accelerate clinical symptom amelioration and prevent complications. Adipose mesenchymal stem cell metabolites (AdMSCM), a novel biological product, contains a plethora of bioactive mediators that can induce a series of processes in wound healing.

Molecular docking and dynamic simulation of conserved B cell epitope of SARS-CoV-2 glycoprotein Indonesian isolates: an immunoinformatic approach.

An immunoinformatic approach may be useful to investigate the conserved region in the spike glycoprotein of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) Indonesia isolates. The aim of this study was to investigate Indonesian SARS-CoV-2 isolates based on B cell epitopes by targeting the conserved regions in the spike glycoprotein to trigger increased multi-variant virus neutralization and memory response for the development of vaccine seed candidates. SARS-CoV-2 spike glycoprotein gene sequences originating from Indonesia were compared with Wuhan (China), the United Kingdom, South Africa, India, the United States, and Brazil isolates obtained from the NCBI and GISAID databases.

Characterization of SARS-CoV-2 East Java isolate, Indonesia.

 Incidents of SARS-CoV-2 in East Java increased steadily, and it became the second epicenter in Indonesia. The COVID-19 pandemic caused a dire multisectoral crisis all around the world. This study investigates and characterizes local isolates from East Java, Indonesia.

Medicinal Signaling Cells Metabolite Oral Based as a Potential Biocompatible Biomaterial Accelerating Oral Ulcer Healing (In Vitro Study).

Objective:  Medicinal signaling cells metabolite (MSCM) is often considered medical waste even though it contains abundant growth factors, and advantageous micro- and macromolecules that can accelerate healing in oral ulcer.The purpose of this experimental laboratory study was to analyze the biocompatibility and potential of MSCM, (oral based) to accelerate healing in oral ulcer (in vitro).

Materials And Methods:  MSCM (oral based) was obtained by mixing 10 mL of MSCM and 2% of carboxymethyl cellulose sodium.

Correlation between complement component levels and disease severity in dengue patients in Indonesia.

Dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) is a severe form of dengue fever (DF). Recent in vitro studies indicate that complement reduces the infection-enhancing activity of dengue antibodies, suggesting its in vivo role in controlling viremia levels and disease severity. In this study, the complement hemolytic activity (CH50) and levels of complement components and related factors in dengue patients in Indonesia were assessed.

Dengue virus infection-enhancing and neutralizing antibody balance in children of the Philippines and Indonesia.

Dengue fever and dengue hemorrhagic fever are important diseases worldwide. Although antibody-dependent enhancement of infection has been proposed as a mechanism for increased disease severity, enhancing antibodies in endemic people have not been thoroughly investigated. Recently, we established a serological assay system to measure the balance of enhancing and neutralizing activities, which provides useful information for estimating in vivo antibody status.

Reversin increase the plasticity of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cell for generation of cardiomyocyte in vitro.

Aim: to speed up transdifferentiation of bone marrow-derived stem cells into cardiomyocyte in vitro by inducing dedifferentiation of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cell, before induction by 5-aza-2'-deoxycytidine into cardiomyocyte.

Methods: two-three months old 2.5 kg weight adult male New Zealanad Rabbits were anesthezied with ether, thigh bones were excised, and bone marrow cells were obtained by aspiration.

Displacement of the predominant dengue virus from type 2 to type 1 with a subsequent genotype shift from IV to I in Surabaya, Indonesia 2008-2010.

Indonesia has annually experienced approximately 100,000 reported cases of dengue fever (DF) and dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) in recent years. However, epidemiological surveys of dengue viruses (DENVs) have been limited in this country. In Surabaya, the second largest city, a single report indicated that dengue virus type 2 (DENV2) was the predominant circulating virus in 2003-2005.

Prevalence of antibodies to Japanese encephalitis virus among pigs in Bali and East Java, Indonesia, 2008.

Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) is a fatal disease in Asia. Pigs are considered to be the effective amplifying host for JEV in the peridomestic environment. Bali Island and Java Island in Indonesia provide a model to assess the effect of pigs on JEV transmission, since the pig density is nearly 100-fold higher in Bali than Java, while the geographic and climatologic environments are equivalent in these areas.
