摘要: Lead is a well-known neurotoxin that affects the developing central nervous system and may potentially inhibit neurogenesis in adults. We investigated effect of ascorbic acid garlic extract against lead-induced neurotoxicity rat dentate gyrus. Female Wistar rats were divided randomly into five groups: lead-treated (L; 1,500 ppm lead acetate drinking water) group, plus acid-treated (L + AA; 500 mg/kg, ip) juice-treated (L + G; 1 ml /100 g BW, gavage) sham group (sh), controls. All treatments administered to female during pregnancy lactation. At end treatment, gyrus determined using Doublecortin (DCX) immunohistochemistry hippocampus 50-day-old male pups. DCX-positive cells counted compared between groups. exposure caused significant increase blood brain concentration vs. control (P < 0.001); whereas, co-administration or garlic + lead was effective reducing levels (P < 0.01). The number lead-exposed significantly lower, when with A statistically groups noted (P < 0.05). This study provides evidence beneficial role early status exposure.
