The aim of the present study was to determine, by kariometric parameters, the influence of phenytoin, as teratogen, on the epithelial layer of choroid plexus in rats fetuses, using single daily dose ( 75 mg Kg-1 bd.wt.), during gestation GD9 to GD11, and lowest total dose used orally (225 mg Kg-1), to the best of our knowledge. In some of experimental studies in animals, the anticonvulsant drug phenytoin were administered in embriotoxic daily doses (100-1500 mg Kg-1 bd.wt.) increasing concentrations up to 20 times the human therapeutic plasma concentration. There is a significant lack of information regarding the embriotoxicity in pregnancy of these drug, phenytoin, in low doses. Phenytoin was administered in a single daily dose (75 mg Kg-1 bd.wt.) to... |

Aspartame is a synthetic sweetener consumed by more than half the adult population in 75 countries. Their metabolites can be toxic, principally to the liver and retina, and there are few studies on the use of aspartame in gestation. Twenty pregnant rats were weighed and allocated randomly (n=5 per group) to receive 14 mg/kg aspartame or water by oral-gastric drip. Treated Tl: aspartame diluted in water at room temperature; Treated T2: aspartame diluted in water heated to 40° C; control Cl: water at room temperature; and control C2: water heated to 40° C. Placentas were weighed, umbilical cords measured and 1000 nuclei of fetal hepatocytes (250 from each group) were analyzed morphometrically utilizing the technique of kariometry, with application of the... |
