Biological target:
Prallethrin is a pyrethroid insecticide.
In vitro activity:
This study demonstrated effect of allethrin and prallethrin, and the mechanism involved, on the mucin expressions in human airway epithelial cells. In human airway NCI-H292 epithelial cells, the effects of allethrin and prallethrin and its signaling pathway for airway mucin, especially MUC5AC, were investigated by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), real-time PCR, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The mechanism of allethrin and prallethrin-induced MUC5AC expression in airway epithelial cells was studied in terms of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by flow cytometry analysis. Allethrin and prallethrin significant increased MUC5AC expression in human airway NCI-H292 epithelial cells. Reference: Biochem Biophys Res Commun. 2018 Sep 3;503(1):316-322. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29885834/
In vivo activity:
Prallethrin caused significant increase in LPO and decrease in superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase and glutathione reduced. Consistent histological changes were found in the kidney of prallethrin treatment. Co-administration of essential oil attenuated the prallethrin induced renal toxicity and oxidative stress by decreasing LPO in kidney, creatinine, urea and uric acid levels in serum. In addition, superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase activity and glutathione reduced level were increased in kidney in prallethrin-essential oil groups.
