Protective effects of Allium sativum essential oil rich in disulfides against deltamethrin induced oxidative stress and hepatotoxicity in rats
The purpose of our study was to evaluate the antioxidant potential of Allium sativum essential oil (ASEO) and the protective effects against deltamethrin (D) induced hepatic toxic effects in Wistar rats. Twenty-four male rats were divided into four groups as follows: control, ASEO, D and ASEO + D. R...

Summary: | The purpose of our study was to evaluate the antioxidant potential of
Allium sativum
essential oil (ASEO) and the protective effects against deltamethrin (D) induced hepatic toxic effects in
Wistar
rats. Twenty-four male rats were divided into four groups as follows: control, ASEO, D and ASEO + D. Rats were orally gavaged with ASEO (200 mg/kg body weight) and D (7.2 mg/kg body weight) for 4 weeks. The ASEO revealed radical scavenging activity (DPPH) with IC
50
= 47.66 ± 2.51 µg/mL, and the lipid peroxidation activity (the β-carotene bleaching method) with IC
50
= 0.034 ± 0.007 µg/mL. Analyzed by GC–MS, ASEO confirm that disulfides (38%) and eugenol (15%) were the main components of garlic oil. In terms of in vivo study, deltamethrin exposure induced a significant increase in the biochemical serum parameters such as aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), hepatic lipid peroxidation (LPO) level, advanced oxidized protein products (AOPP), and carbonyl protein accompanied by decrease in the activities of SOD, CAT, GPX and the levels of GSH (p |
