Artigo IPEN-doc 24466 Evaluation of resveratrol toxicity in the embryolarval stage of Danio rerio fish2017 - CAVALCANTE, A.K.; LOPES-FERREIRA, M.; ROGERO, S.O.; ROGERO, J.R.Human beings concern about healthy life has driven researchers to study new compounds capable of reaching that desire. Resveratrol (3, 4 ‘, 5-trihydroxystilbene) a phenolic compound, is one of these substances which presents a variety of pharmacological actions, as antioxidant potential, anti-inflammatory capacity, protection against heart and cancer diseases. Despite the resveratrol health benefits studies, there is a little evidence of its toxicity in the literature in aquatic organisms, and especially the data on the concentration of resveratrol in the environment, making the present study fundamental for information about resveratrol ecotoxicity in the aquatic system. The aim of this study was to evaluate the toxicity of resveratrol in embryos and larvae of Danio rerio (zebrafish). The in vitro cytotoxicity and ecotoxicity assays were performed. The IC50 obtained in the NCTC-L929 cell line cytotoxicity assay was 38.5 mg L-1. The LC50 (96h) obtained in fish embryo toxicity test was 75.3 mg L-1 and the mean value of resveratrol LC50 (168h) obtained in the short-term chronic ecotoxicity assays performed with zebrafish larvae was 51.4 mg L-1. This work provided data on the toxicity of resveratrol in the embryonic stage of fish of the species Danio rerio and the toxic effects are dependent on its concentration.Artigo IPEN-doc 24145 Resveratrol radiomodifier effect on Danio rerio embriolarval assay2017 - DAMASCENO, KELME C.; MAMEDE, FERNANDA C.S.; CAVALCANTE, ADRIANA K.; ROGERO, SIZUE O.; FERREIRA, MONICA L.; ROGERO, JOSE R.The ionizing radiation can cause fatal damages to cells by the direct interaction with DNA and RNA or a series of toxic reactions occasioning chemical and biological changes. There are compounds with radioprotective potential, like resveratrol. For use the organism. Resveratrol is a substance found in peanuts, grapes and wine and its production occurs in plants as a response to physical, chemical and biological stress. Some studies benefits. Danio rerio (zebrafish) is a vertebrate animal and has become the model of several studies related to human diseases, due to its genomes similarity of 70 %, rapid embryonic development and the transparency o the eggs, which make it possible to observe the effects during the test period. The aim of the present study to verify the resveratrol radiomodifier effect on zebrafish during the embryolarval development by modified Fish Embryo Acute Toxicity (FET) (LC50) was 66.9 mg.L-1. Before, to understand the effects of radiation, was carried out the gamma radiation lethal dose (LD50) assay and the LD50 was 25 Gy. With these results the projec study of the radiomodifier effect of resveratrol in the presence of gamma radiation
