Role of heat shock protein 70 (HSP-70) after giving nanoherbal haramonting (rhodomyrtus tomentosa) in preeclamptic rats

Abstract

Background and Objective: Haramonting (Rhodomyrtus tomentosa) is an alternative herb to improve health because it has many biological activities and antioxidant. HSP-70 levels as biomarkers of preeclampsia affected the anti-apoptosis of damaged cells in the placenta. This study aimed to evaluate the role of HSP-70 expressions by investigating whether effect haramonting leaves in PE rats. Materials andMethods: The study design was control (C): pregnant rats without treatment, PE: Preeclamptic rats, PE+E: PE rats were given 1 mL EVOO kg-1 b.wt./day orally (pregnancy 13-19), PE+H: PE rats were given nano herbal haramonting 100 mg kg-1 b.wt. (pregnancy 13-19 days). PE+E+H: PE rats were given EVOO 0.5 mL kg-1 b.wt. and nano herbal haramonting 50 mg kg-1 b.wt. (pregnancy 13-19 day). Surgery was performed by taking blood from the heart for the SGOT/SGPT parameters, creatinine and HSP70. Results: A significant difference was observed in all groups with the value p<0.0001 and HSP-70 Expressions affect in preeclamptic rats after given this herbal. The value of SGOT, SGPT and creatinine can affect preeclamptic rats and can be as a biomarker of preeclampsia. A significant difference also in fetus weight (p<0.01) but an insignificant difference in placental weight (p>0.05). Conclusion: These findings indicate that Nano herbal haramonting and EVOO possess antioxidative effects and a promising drug for the future in the treatment of preeclampsia.
