Summary, etc. |
<p style="text-align: justify;">This study evaluated anti-acetylcholinesterase and antioxidant potentials in mice hippocampus treated with essential oils (EO) of <em>Citrus sinensis</em> (L.) Osbeck (orange)<em> in vitro</em> and <em>in vivo</em>. The acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity was evaluated by using an adapted spectrophotometric method by Ellman after administration (30 consecutive days) in albino mice at doses of 50.00 mg/kg (EO 50), 100.00 mg/kg (EO 100) and 200.00 mg/kg (EO 200). The results showed that there was a significant decrease on enzymatic activity of AChE in mice hippocampus treated with essential oil of <em>C. sinensis</em> at doses of 50.00 mg/kg (vehicle= 9.89±0.19, OE 50= 2.63±0.21) [<em>P </em><0.05], 100.00 mg/kg (vehicle= 9.89±0.19, EO 100= 1.65±0.15) [<em>P </em><0.05] and 200.00 mg/kg (vehicle= 9.89±0.19, EO 200= 2.38±0.12) [<em>P </em><0.05] when compared with vehicle group (0.05% Tween 80 dissolved in saline 0.9%). Concerning antioxidant activity, there was a significant reduction (<em>P </em><0.05) of 20% on lipid peroxidation level in mice hippocampus treated with a dose of 200.00 mg/kg. The results obtained from the current studies showed that the essential oil of <em>C. sinensis</em> has considerable antioxidant and activity and inhibitory effect on AChE.</p> |
