Abstract

Materials and methods The rats were divided into three groups: rats treated with water (CONT=10) rats orally treated with MFS (20mg/ Kg) daily for 15 days until a positive diagnosis of pregnancy (MICO-1=10) and rats orally treated with MFS (20mg/Kg) daily for 15 days prior to and during 21 days of pregnancy (MICO-2=10). It was evaluated on the 17th day of pregnancy the Oral Tolerance Glucose Test (OGTT) and on day 21 the rats were anesthetized and killed by decapitation and thus measured reproductive parameters (Index fertility, childbirth, pregnancy and number of live births and resorption) and serum biomarkers (lipid parameters and liver transaminases) Statistical significance was p <0.05. Results In pregnancy period, there were no changes in glucose data during OGTT evaluation, although MICO-2 rats presented higher glycemia compared to other groups (CONT and MICO-1), with 170mg/dL. Furthermore, the MICO-2 rats presented other negative effects, including dead rats and total resorption of fetuses. The biochemical data presented decreasing of rates of serum lipid (cholesterol and lipoprotein fractions, triglycerides and alanine aminotransferase).

Highlights

  • The pregnancy period involves a lot of biological changes, and the use of medication must be taken with extremely caution, especially because of its implications for maternal and fetal health, involving biochemical and reproductive functions in maternal organism
