Abstract

This study aimed to evaluate the genotoxic and anti-cytotoxic activities of propolis on mitomycin C (MMC) induced lesions using Drosophila melanogaster strains with different cytochrome P-450 metabolic enzymes expression levels. The wing somatic mutation and recombination test (SMART) was used and supplied a wide spectrum of information concerning genic and cromossomal mutations and/or genetic recombinations. The results indicated that propolis acted as a direct modulator on cytotoxic effects induced by MMC. Furthermore, it was demonstrated that propolis did not induce mutagenic and/or recombinagenic events in D. melanogaster somatic cells. The data showed in this paper corroborates the ones described in the literature, contributing to determine the protective activity of propolis when administrated with genotoxic agents presenting different mechanisms of action.
