摘要

The mutagenic effects of analgesics with aspirin, paracetamol and caffeine combinations were evaluated in a male rat model using a short-term in vivo mutagenicity test (sperm head abnormality assay). A 90-day exposure to recommended doses of the five analgesics, Aspirin (aspirin only), Cafenol (aspirin + caffeine), Panadol (paracetamol only), Pentax (paracetamol + caffeine) and Daga+ (aspirin + paracetamol + caffeine), significantly (P<0.001) increased sperm head abnormality compared with controls; this exposure time also increased mutagenicity (or mutation indices) by at least 1.67-fold. The presence of caffeine in both Cafenol and Pentax analgesics reduced mutagenicity, while the presence of caffeine in Daga+ had a synergistic effect that significantly increased both the frequency of abnormal sperm heads to 13.5% and the mutation index to 8.00. Sperm head abnormality was also proportional to mutation index Introduction Analgesics with aspirin, paracetamol and caffeine combinations are ingested for many reasons including: general pains, headaches, fevers, cold, flu, rheumatoid arthritis, circulation problems (1) and in cases of dependent-addiction (2). In recent years, there has been an increasing awareness and realization of the genotoxic potentials of a wide variety of drugs, food additives, environmental pollutants (3, 4) and other socially acceptable compounds such as aspirin and caffeine (5). Habitual ingestion of aspirin and caffeine has been shown to be capable of inducing structural chromosomal aberrations in somatic cells in vivo (6) and reproductive toxicology (5). This awareness follows the recent development of appropriate, sensitive and practical methods for detecting and estimating the toxic effects of these substances and their impact on environmental health.Aspirin is one of the most widely used analgesics available without prescription in several parts of the world (7). Mutagenic studies of aspirin in mammals are not common and are mostly limited to in vitro experiments. Kimmel et al. (8), reported the teratogenic effects of aspirin in Wister rats resulting in malformations of limbs, while Jones and Bodmer (3) suggested similar effects in humans at recommended doses. It has been identified as a behavioural teratogen in humans at doses too low to produce differential birth-weight effects (6); and it has also been reported that maternal aspirin use during the first-half of the pregnancy has a high significant effect (P<0.0005) on intelligence quotient (IQ) and attention in exposed children (9). There are conflicting reports on potentials of paracetamol as an experimental carcinogenic agent, although evidences implicate metabolites of paracetamol and phenacetin as being active experimental carcinogenic agents (2, 10, 11). Paracetamol has also been reported to inhibit DNA synthesis by 70-90% at 1hour following an oral dose in the spleen, testis, thymus, stomach, small intestine and bone marrow (12).Caffeine is often used with aspirin and paracetamol to augment their antipyretic and analgesic effects (13). There is a strong relationship between the ingestion of various combinations of analgesics with caffeine resulting in approximately 2-fold increase in the risk of cancers of the pelvic, kidney, bladder and urinary tract (2, 11). In view of such findings, this study set out to further explore the effect of caffeine on the mutagenicity of analgesics with aspirin, paracetamol and caffeine combinations in rats as model using short-term in vivo mutagenicity assay to assess their effects on sperm head abnormality and mutation index. Materials and methods Forty-eight healthy isogenic strains of male albino rats (Rattus norvegicus) of about ten to eleven weeks old were obtained from the rat colony of the Department of Zoology and Environmental Biology, University of Calabar, Calabar-Nigeria for the study. The rats were housed in conventional cages and maintained under standard laboratory conditions in the animal house a
