3. RESEARCH PROJECT
3.1. Background of Research
Oxidative stress has been implicated in human diseases conditions, such as cardiovascular diseases, cancer, aging and neurodegenerative diseases (Bagchi et al., 2000). However, the immune systems in human body is not enough for severe oxidative stress. Hence, certain amounts of exogenous antioxidants and anti-inflammations are required to maintain an adequate immune system in human body. Strawberry (Fragaria ananassa) is widely cultivated in USA, Spain, Japan, Poland, Korea and Russian Federation. Strawberry are not only available fresh, but also consumed and processed into jams, juices, ice cream, confectionary and other concentration product. The utilization of strawberry can be maximized when strawberry is processed into wine. Recent study has shown that wine has a wide range of phytochemical such as sugars, ethyl alcohol, tannins, aldehydes, esters, amino acids, minerals, vitamins, anthocyanin and other compounds, including phenolic compounds. The phenolic compounds found in strawberry wine are catechin, epicatechin, quercitin and ellagic acid. (Joshi et al., 2005; Sharma, 2000). Phenolic compounds contained in strawberry wine may give a great protection due to oxidative stress in human body.
The aim of this research are to know the optimum concentration of strawberry wine that the cells still can survive and also can reduce oxidative stress in LPS-induced Raw 264.7 macrophage cell. LPS is used to stimulate inflammation condition in cells and produce nitric oxide (NO). The NO production of cells is measured using NO production test and the viability of cells is measured using MTT assay method.
3.2. Literature Review
3.2.1. Strawberry (Fragaria ananassa) Wine
Strawberry is a fruit from genus Fragaria that has red colour with unique shape and flavour. Strawberry is a nutritious fruit because it has various nutrition and also rich in vitamin C which is important for natural antioxidant, iron and other minerals. The phenolic compounds of strawberry is located in major constituents of strawberry water. Strawberry flavour is characterized as fruity, sweet and tart, and the aroma is mainly determined by a complex eters, aldehydes, alcohols and sulfur compounds. Esters, like ethyl and methyl ester, are important for imparting the fruity and floral notes to strawberry. The composition of strawberry fruit in 100 gram can be seen in Table 1.

Strawberry fruit are a very delicious fruit and ussualy used for appetizer and dessert. Different utilization of strawberry are used to make jam, juices, puree, confectionary and concentration, and other preserves food, including strawberry wine. Alcoholic beverages are theoretically can be prepared from any fruit that have fermentable sugars and nutrient required for fermentation. The sugars content in strawberry is high enough and can be used as a raw material to make a wine (Table 1.) (Rana et al., 1986; Amerine et al., 1980).
A method for strawberry wine making has also been described (Joshi et al., 2006). To make the wine, strawberry should be washed to remove dirts and soils, then crushed into pulps. A palatable strawberry wine made from dilution of pulp with 50% water is suggested available to reduce the acidity (Joshi et al., 2005). Thermovinification (heat treatment) is done to improve colour extraction from weakly colour of strawberry. This process can be done by heating the berries with 50% water at 60-65oC for 5-6 minutes and raising the total suspended solid (TSS) after crushing to improve the sensory quality of wine. The fermentation is done by using yeast (Saccharomyces cereviceae) for 4 days then pressed the fermented wine to dryness (Sims & Bates, 1994). During fermentation, the physicochemical characteristic of strawberry wine is improved. It contains sugars, ethyl alcohol, higher alcohol, tannin, aldehydes, esters, amino acids, minerals, vitamins, anthocyanin, minor constituent like methanol and a number of flavouring compounds (Joshi et al., 2006; Sharma, 2000). Higher alcohol of strawberry wine are formed due to amino acid biosynthesis from carbohydrates complex or directly from existing amino acids by deamination and decarboxylation. Esters in wine are formed as a result of esterification of alcohols with respective acids (Amerine et al., 1980). While ageing/ maturation of strawberry wine, the phenolic compounds are formed as a result of maceration of anthocyanins. The phenolic compounds in strawberry wine are catechin, epicatechin, quercitin and ellagic acid (Pilando et al., 1985). Phenolic compounds is important as antioxidant and usually used to reduce oxidative stress such as inflammation in living organisms. Pasteurized and depectinized of strawberry wine is suggested since pectin may cause a bad sensory and make the colour unstable. Depectinized can be done by using 100 ppm of liquid pectic enzyme to breakdown pectin.
3.2.2. Characteristics of Inflammation
Inflammation is a response to protect the cells from harm effects. Inflammation may happen in every part of our cells, like blood vessels, immune cells and molecular mediators. Inflammation has various functions to eliminate the initial cause of cell injury, necrotic cells and tissues damage, and also to initiate tissue repair. Two kinds of inflammations are acute and chronic (Table 2.). Acute inflammation can be achieved by the rapid movement of plasma and leukocytes from blood into injured tissues as an initial response of body to harmfull stimulus. Chronic inflammation is a prolonged inflammation, which mean the harmfull stimuli leads to a progressive shift in the type of cells present and can be characterized by simultaneous damage (Abbas & Lichtman, 2009). Table 2. Characteristics of Acute and Chronic Inflammation.
Features Acute Inflammation Chronic Inflammation Onset Fast: minutes or hours Slow: days Cellular infiltrate Mainly neutrophilis Monocytes/ macrophages Tissue injury Usually mild and self- Often severe and limited progressive Local and systemic signs Prominent Less prominent Source: Cotran et al., 1998.
Inflammation can be defined by the sequential release of mediators such as pro-
2
2
inflammatory cytokines, NO and prostaglandin E (PGE ). Nitric oxide synthase (NOS) will produce NO by converting L-arginine to L-citruline, accompanied by NO production (Lin et al., 2003). High amount of NO produced by NOS indicates that the cells are in diseases and inflammation. NO may be generated in excess during the host response againts viral and bacterial infections, and also contribute to some pathogenesis by promoting oxidative stress, tissue injury and cancer (Hanada & Yoshimura, 2002; Maeda & Akaike, 1998).
3.2.3. Raw 264.7 Macrophage Cell
Raw 264.7 cell is a macrophage-like monoyte cells that can be found in mouse (Mus ). This cells have function as defense and immunity mechanism of the living
musculus
host response to inflammatory effect like tumor. The protective function of this cells are presented as innate immunity and inflammation, foreign antigen presentation and scavenging dead cells (Lee et al., 2011). Macrophage cells can produce two groups of protein mediators to inhibit inflammation, interleukin 1 (IL-1) and tumor necrosis factor
(Han et al., 2002). As a response of inflammation effects, this cells also will produce NO and the production of NO will endows macrophage cell with cytotoxic activity againts bacteria, viruses, fungi, protozoa and tumor cells. However, high concentration of NO in living host will lead to neuropathogical diseases, rheumatoid arthritis and other disorders. In other words, inflammation mechanism is just a response to a harmful thing but if the healing of wound part of cell take time too long, it will cause many diseases. To date, raw 264.7 macrophage cell are usually used to do cell culture with growth conditions, protein expression and determination, RNAi, stable cell transfection and also gene transfection (He et al., 2011). The thaw and subculture techniques are very important things to do experiment using raw 264.7 macrophage cells. Pure raw cells should be stored in liquid nitrogen vapour phase to deactivate the cells and prevent the growth of cells. The thaw and subculture process should be done in laminar flow by using aseptic methods.
3.2.4. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)
Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is a large molecule consisting of lipid and polysaccharide. LPS can be found in the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria which outer and inner core joined by a covalent bond (Hirai et al., 2014). Richard Friedrich Johannes Pfeiffer is a scientist who discovered LPS in Escherichia coli and classified it as an endotoxin. LPS called endotoxin because the toxin is kept within the bacteria outer membrane and will only released to the environment when there is a destruction of bacteria membrane. LPS plays a major role in bacteria because it contributes greatly on cell structure formation, give protection from harmful chemical attack and also may stimulates strong response of immune system (Rietschel et al., 1994). LPS is a complex molecule which composed of three major parts, the parts are O polysaccharide, core oligosaccharide and lipid A.
a.
O polysaccharide (O antigen) comprises the outer domain of LPS molecule and attached to the core oligosaccharide. O polysaccharide in the membrane will determine whether the membrane is rough or smooth, depend on how many O polysaccharide penetrable cell membranes to medicine like antibiotic because smooth LPS is less hydrophobic (Rittig et al., 2003; Raetz & Whitfield, 2002).
b.
Core oligosaccharide attached to O polysaccharide and contains simple sugar molecule like heptose and 3-deoxy-D-mannooctulosonic acid and also contain other components like amino acids, phosphate and ethanolamine (Hershberger & Binkley, 1968).
c.
Lipid A is a phosphorylated glucosamine disaccharide attached with various fatty acids.
Since this part attach with lipid, then the characteristic is hydrophobic. Lipid A is responsible to the toxicity level of Gram-negative bacteria and the toxicity level is depend on how much lipid A is contained on bacteria. Once the bacteria cells is destroyed by immune system, lipid A will be released to the environment and cause diseases like diarrhea, fever and also fatal endotoxic shock (Tzeng et al., 2002). The injection of LPS which contain lipid A in mammalian cells may cause uncontrolled immune systems and will stimulate to produce inflammatory mediators (Kilar et al., 2013). The mediators of inflammation system is Toll-like receptor 4, which is responsible to activate the immune cell system. Damage in endothelial layer of blood vessel caused by Toll-like receptor 4 can lead to capillary leak syndrome, dilation of blood vessels and decrease in cardiac functions. The high concentration of LPS injected to mammalian cells may cause further effects like disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) with loss of organs function such as kidneys, adrenal glands, lungs and heart (Stephens et al., 2007).
3.2.5. Trolox
Trolox (C
14 H
18 O 4 ) is an analog of vitamin E. International Union or Pure and Applied
Chemistry (IUPAC) name of trolox is 6-hydroxy-2,5,7,8-tetramethylchroman-2- carboxylic acid and the molar mass is 250.29 g/mol. It is a water-soluble substance and have an antioxidant-like function vitamin E. Trolox can be found in many fruits with high vitamin E, such as berries and tomatoes. In many research, trolox usually used for biological and biochemical applications to reduce damage and oxidative stress. The effectivity of trolox as antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effect can be measured using trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity (TEAC) assay. The units of this measurement is
3.2.6. MTT (3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5 diphenyl tetrazolium bromide) Assay
MTT assay is a test based on the conversion of MTT (3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5 diphenyl tetrazolium bromide) into formazan crystals by living cell. Mitochondiral activity is used to determines the formazan crystal formation in living cells. The number of the cell populations are related to the number of cell viability (Van Meerloo et al., 2011). Cell viability assay developed for a 96-wells format that suitable for high throughput screening. Viable cells can convert MTT reagent into purple colored formazan product that can be detected by using 570 nm wavelengths (Marshall et al., 1995). A dead cell will lose the ability, thus unable to convert MTT into formazan. Formazan can be absorbed and precipitated by the cells surfaces and the color of the cells will change into dark purple. Formazan should be soluble when recording the absorbance using absorbance-reader equipment (Tada et al., (1986). There are various liquid to soluble the formazan such as dimethylformamide, SDS, acidified isoporopanol, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and also combination of detergent and organic solvent. DMSO is the one of the most common solvent that used to dissolve hydrophobic substances, such as formazan crystals, for in vivo and in vitro purposes (Bartsch, et al., 1976).
3.2.7. Nitric Oxide (NO) Production Test
Nitric Oxide (NO) plays a major roles in plants, bacteria and even in mammalian life (Moncada et al., 1991). Multiple physiological and pathophysiological function of NO are achieved by using various classes of nitric oxide synthase (NOS). The excess or lack of NO production in cells can cause nitrosative stress, leading damages of protein (DNA) and cell injury and death (Murphy, 1999). Wagner and coworkers established that the excess amount of NO in cells indicates that inflammation have occured in these cells (Wagner et al., 1984). This shown that NO is involved in many of human diseases and need to be regulated because it plays multiple role in living organisms (Lum et al., 2002).
The measurement of NO in living organism is not a simple way because NO is rapidly are three ways to measure NO level, using fast-response amperometric electrode sensors, in-vivo trapping techniques and estimation of determining the concentrations of nitrite and nitrate concentration (Kleschyov & Munzel, 2002; Kojima et al., 1998; Moshage, 1995) The determination of nitrite and nitrate concentration in sample can be done by using Griess assay. Griess assay was first described in 1879 and used widely in analysis of various samples including urine, salive and cell culture media. In this method, nitrite is treated with diazotizing reagent, such as sulfanialmide (SA) in acidic media to form a transient diazonium salt. N-naphthyl-ethylenediamine (NED) is added and react with the sample to form a stable azo compound. The purple color of the sample can be used to measure nitrite concentration by using absorbance-reader equipment at 540 nm (Green et al., 1982).

5. RESULT AND DISCUSSION
Anti-inflammatory effect of strawberry wine extract on LPS-induced RAW 264.7 macrophage cells were analyzed. Strawberry wine extract was made by using water extraction method. LPS was injected to RAW 264.7 macrophage cells to stimulate the inflammation condition of the cells. To know the anti-inflammatory effect of strawberry wine extract, different concentrations of strawberry wine extract was injected to the cells and trolox was used as the positive control. Anti-inflammatory effect was measured by NO production test using ELISA reader. Cell viability was measured using MTT survival test. The effect of strawberry wine extract to morphology cells were analyzed using electronic microscope connected to personal computer (PC).
5.1. Cell Viability Test
Figure 1. Effect of strawberry wine water extract on the cell viability in LPS-stimulated RAW 264.7 cells. Normal cells as control (C). LPS at 100 ng/mL (LPS). Trolox at 100
μg/mL (T100). Strawberry wine extract at 25-250 μg/mL (25, 50, 75, 100, 250). Cell viability test is used to know wether the sample is suitable for the cells or not. To analyze the cell viability, MTT assay is used as a method using ELISA reader. Viable cells in the bottom of the plate have the skill to absorb and convert MTT reagent into formazan crystals which have purple color, but death cells are not. Formazan is dissolved in DMSO solvent and change the color of solution into purple that can be detected by using 550 nm wavelength of ELISA reader. Amount number of viable cell will determine the color of solution and also the absorbance of ELISA reader (Marshall et al., 1995; Tada et al ., 1986; Bartsch et al., 1976).
Based on Figure 1. we can see that cell viability of LPS-stimulated RAW 264.7 cells were depend on extract concentration. LPS, T100, 25, 50 and 75 μg/mL were not significantly different with control. This means the addition of LPS and T100 were not hurt the cells, thus the number of the cells in wells could be mantained. The same thing happened in the concentration of 25, 50 and 75
μg/mL because it proved that the cell viability at these concentrations are not significantly different from the control. This means that these concentrations does not lead to cell death. However, cell viability at 100 and 250
μg/mL of extract were decreased signicantly. This was happen because the high concentration of extract could kill the cells and resulted in low cell viability. Strawberry wine extract contains alcohol. The higher concentration of sample was added, the higher alcohol will be. Alcohol is a damaging agent for all cells, from the liver to nerveous system (Blasiak
et al ., 2000; Luo & Miller, 1997). High concentration of alcohol, especially ethanol, may
lead to necrotic cell death, mediated by a high production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) (Peri et al., 2005).
