Effect of Brazilian propolis on scratching behavior induced by compound 48/80 and histamine in mice.

Abstract:

:We studied the effect of Brazilian propolis on scratching behavior induced by compound 48/80 and histamine in ICR mice. Propolis granular A.P.C dose-related inhibited scratching behavior induced by compound 48/80 and significant inhibition were observed at 1000 mg/kg. However, histamine-induced scratching behavior was not inhibited by propolis granular A.P.C even at 1000 mg/kg. Propolis ethanol extract at 10 microg/ml or more inhibited histamine release from rat mast cells induced by compound 48/80. In addition, it blocked increased vascular permeability induced by compound 48/80. The inhibitory effect of propolis on scratching behavior induced by compound 48/80 was gradually enhanced by repeated administration, and 500 mg/kg propolis granular A.P.C, which caused no effect through single administration, significantly inhibited scratching behavior after repeated administration for 4 weeks. From these findings, it is assumed that the inhibition of scratching behavior induced by propolis occurs through a mast cell-dependent mechanism.
