摘要

Abstract Arecoline is a pharmacologically active alkaloid isolated from Areca catechu. There are no published data available regarding the inhalation toxicity of arecoline in animals. This study aimed to evaluate the inhalation toxicity of arecoline in vitro and in vivo. For this purpose, arecoline benzoate (ABA) salt was prepared to stabilize arecoline in an aerosol. The MTT assay determined the half‐maximal inhibitory concentration values of ABA and arecoline in A549 cell proliferation to be 832 and 412?μg/ml, respectively. The toxicity of acute and subacute inhalation in Sprague–Dawley rats was evaluated using the guidelines of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development. For acute inhalation, the median lethal concentration value of ABA solvent was >5175?mg/m3. After the exposure and during the recovery period, no treatment‐related clinical signs were observed. In the 28‐Day inhalation toxicity test, daily nose‐only exposure to 2510?mg/m3 aerosol of the ABA solvent contained 75?mg/m3 ABA for male rats and 375?mg/m3 ABA for female rats, which caused no observed adverse effects, except for the decreased body weight gain in male rats exposed to 375?mg/m3 ABA. In this study, the no observed adverse effect level (NOAEL) for the 28‐day repeated dose inhalation of ABA aerosol was calculated to be around 13?mg/kg/day for male rats and 68.8?mg/kg/day for female rats, respectively.
