This study aimed to investigate the efects of Coriandrum sativum aqueous extract (EACS) on the rat progeny of mothers exposed to methylmercury (MeHg). The presence of bioactive compounds and EACS's antioxidant capacity been evaluated, and the spring were assessed for their total mercury levels, motor behavioral parameters and oxidative stress in the cerebellum. The analysis of the bioactive compounds revealed significant amounts of polyphenols, flavonoids, and anthocyanins, as well as a variety of minerals. A DPPH test showed the EACS had important antioxidant activity. The MeHg + EACS group performed significantly better spontaneous locomotor activity, palmar grip strength, balance, and motor coordination in behavioral tests compared the MeHg group, as well as in the parameters of oxidative stress, with similar results to those of the control group. The MeHg + EACS group alsohad significantly reduced mercury levels in comparison to the MeHg group. Based on the behavioral tests, which detected large locomotor, balance, and coordination improvements, as well as a reduction in oxidative stress, we conclude that EACS had positive functional results in the spring of rats exposed to MeHg. |
