Abstract

Objectives: A growing body of evidence indicates that hypoxia exposure causes learning and memory deficits. An effective natural therapeutic approach has, however, not been explored widely. Our previous studies found that Tualang honey administration protected learning and memory functions in ovariectomized rats. Therefore, the present study investigated its efficacy in ameliorating hypoxia-induced memory deficits in adult male Sprague Dawley rats.Materials and Methods: The rats were divided into four groups: i) Normoxia treated with sucrose (n=12), ii) Normoxia treated with Tualang honey (n=12), iii) Hypoxia treated with sucrose (n=12), and iv) Hypoxia treated with Tualang honey (n=12). Tualang honey (0.2 g/kg/BW) and sucrose (1 mL of 7.9%) supplementations were administered orally to the rats daily for 14 days. Then the hypoxia groups were exposed to hypoxia (~11%) for 7 days, while the normoxia groups were kept in normal conditions. Following exposure to hypoxia, the rats’ memories were analyzed using a novel object recognition task and T-maze test.Results: The data revealed that rats exposed to hypoxia showed significant impairment in short-term memory (STM), spatial memory (p

Özet

Amaç: Giderek artan sayıda kanıt, hipoksiye maruz kalmanın öğrenme ve hafıza eksikliklerine neden olduğunu göstermektedir. Bununla birlikte, etkili doğal kaynaklı terapötik yaklaşım detaylı araştırılmamıştır. Önceki çalışmalarımız, Tualang bal uygulamasının ovarektomi yapılmış sıçanlarda öğrenme ve hafıza işlevlerini koruduğunu bulmuştur. Bu nedenle, bu çalışmada Tualang balının yetişkin erkek Sprague Dawley sıçanlarında hipoksinin neden olduğu hafıza kayıplarını gidermedeki etkinliği araştırıldı.Gereç ve Yöntemler: Sıçanlar dört gruba ayrıldı: i) sükroz ile muamele edilmiş Normoksi (n=12), ii) Tualang balı ile muamele edilmiş normoksi (n=12), iii) sükroz ile muamele edilmiş hipoksi (n=12) ve iv) Tualang balı ile tedavi edilen hipoksi (n=12). Tualang balı (0,2 g/kg/BW) ve sükroz (1 mL %7,9) takviyeleri 14 gün boyunca her gün farelere ağızdan uygulandı. Daha sonra hipoksi grupları 7 gün süreyle hipoksiye (~%11) maruz bırakılırken, normoksi grupları normal koşullarda tutuldu. Hipoksiye maruz kalmanın ardından, farelerin bellek analizleri yeni bir nesne tanıma görevi ve T-labirent testi kullanılarak yapıldı.Bulgular: Veriler, hipoksiye maruz kalan sıçanların normoksi grubuna kıyasla kısa süreli belleğinde (STM), uzamsal belleğinde (p
