Abstract

The influence of 70 % ethanol extract of Psidium guajava. L leaf on the rat interleukin-3, was studied. The extract of Psidium guajava.L leaf is known can increased trombocyte in dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) patient. Interleukin-3 (IL-3) also known as multi CSF, stimulates pluripotent stem cells to produce all types of hematopoeitic cells such as trombocyte. Quercetin is a plant-derived polyphenolic flavonoid found in Psidium guajava.L leaf. Quercetin have antioxidant properties and can inhibit growth factors and cytokines. In this studied, quercetin is make for dose calculation. The dose of 70 % ethanol extract Psidii folium in this research is 2,724 mg /200 g BW on rat; 5,407 mg /200 g BW on rat and 10,813 mg /200 g BW on rat. The influence of 70% ethanol extract of Psidium guajava. L leaf on the rat interleukin-3 was studied by ELISA assay. The sample was given orally during 6 days successively, and blood was taken by intracardial on seventh. Serum was taken to be measured with ELISA method to get the optical density (OD) of IL-3. A quantitative determination of antigen (interleukin-3) concentration is obtained by absorbance measurement of the colored reaction product using a spectrophotometric microwell reader (ELISA reader). The optical density (OD) of interleukin-3 samples is lower than interleukin-3 controls. The result showed that the ethanol 70 % extract of Psidium guajava.L doesn’t have activity to increase interleukin-3. Therefore many research activities should be done in order to know another mecanism of trombopoeisis and the active compound.
