Abstract |
Background/Aim(s): The acute central nervous system (CNS) effects of alcohol are result of increasing inhibitory GABAergic and reducing glutamatergic functions. leading to sedation,uninhibited behavior, impaired sensory and motor skills, and cognitive dysfunction. The aim of this study is to assess the effects of P. nipponicus extract on animal’s motor in acute ethanol consumption.
Methods: Mice were orally fed with either distilled water or P. nipponicus (200 or 600 mg/kg) extract, and one hour later, fed with either distilled water or ethanol (2 or 6 g/kg). Thirty minutes after the second treatment, motor assays were performed, including a rotarod test and footprint analysis.
Results: Mice that received 2 or 6 g/kg of ethanol showed impaired motor functions as seen by a significant reduction in time on the rod in the rotarod test and a significant increase in both forelimb and hindlimb stride lengths when compared to normal control. Oral treatment with P. nipponicus extract could ameliorate gait and balance abnormalities in all tests performed.
Conclusion: This study provides evidence that oral administration of P. nipponicus extract helps reduce the acute effects of alcohol on both motor functions in mice. Therefore, P. nipponicus may be one of the promising products to be used in treating the acute CNS effects of alcohol. |
