Nicotine-induced memory impairment by increasing brain oxidative stress

Abstract: Male Wistar rats were subjected to chronic nicotine treatment (0.3 mg/kg; 7 continuous days) and their memory performance was studied by means of Y-maze and multi-trial passive avoidance tasks. Nicotine significantly decreased spontaneous alternation in Y-maze task and step-through-latency in the multi-trial passive avoidance task, suggesting effects on both short-term memory and long-term memory, respectively. In addition, nicotine induced neuronal apoptosis, DNA fragmentation, reduced antioxidant enzymes act… Show more

“…Chronic usage of morphine diminishes mitochondrial GPx activity and various dosage regimens of morphine can block this effect ( Figure 5). Previous studies have demonstrated that reduced GPx activity can be used as a marker for oxidative stress [41]. GPx plays a prominent role in scavenging free radicals and inhibiting lipid peroxidation [42].…”

“…Asap rokok mampu menurunkan kadar SOD paru-paru mencit karena dalam asap rokok sebagai radikal terdapat senyawa-senyawa yang dapat merusak aktivitas enzim endogen yang berperan sebagai prooksidan. Penurunan kadar SOD akibat paparan asap rokok didukung penelitian Hritchu dkk [24] dimana dalam asap rokok yang mengandung nikotin dan diberikan pada tikus dapat menurunkan aktivitas SOD dan GPX. Penelitian Arumugam dkk [25] yang menyatakan penurunan tingkat SOD merupakan perwujudan dalam kerusakan hepatoseluler akibat adanya peningkatan produksi ROS (Reactive Oxygen Species) pada tingkat yang melebihi kemampuan akibat induksi etanol jangka panjang.…”
