Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), especially Omega 3 and 6 are found in large quantities in the oil Plukenetia volubilis L. “Sacha Inchi“ these PUFAs are transformed in the body in DPA, DHA and ARA, respectively, are structural components important in CNS and participate in its development. Numerous studies conclude that the diet supplemented with PUFAs reduce the neurotoxicity of methylmercury. This paper evaluates the neuroprotective effect of Plukenetia volubilis L. “Sacha Inchi“ oil on methylmercury-induced neurotoxicity in offspring exposed during periods of pregnancy and lactation rats. Neurotoxicity was induced by methylmercury chloride (MeHgCl). For this, nulliparous rats were randomly separated into five groups: No. 1 (DMSO), No. 2 (DMSO + L. Plukenetia volubilis oil 2 ml / kg / day), No. 3 (DMSO + 0.75 mg MeHgCl / Kg / day + L. Plukenetia volubilis oil 2 ml / kg / day), No. 4 (DMSO + MeHgCl 0.75 mg / Kg / day + L. Plukenetia volubilis oil 4 mL / kg / day) and No. 5 MeHgCl DMSO + 0.75 mg / kg / day). The MeHgCl and DMSO were administered in the drinking water and Plukenetia volubilis L. “sacha inchi“ oil by orogastric via. With the aim of evaluating the learning ability of rats offspring with three months , In this study they were underwent with the conditional discrimination test in a Y maze, in order to assess tissue damage clamping technology cerebellum was used in paraffin eosin - hematoxylin and oxidative stress was evaluated by measuring MDA using TBARs technique. All results are statistically significant and show that diet supplemented with Plukenetia volubilis L. “sacha inchi“ oil reduces the toxic effects of methylmercury in learning ability, tissue damage and oxidative stress. Keywords: oil Plukenetia volubilis L., sacha inchi, Methylmercury, neurotoxicity, neuroprotection, learning, pregnancy and lactation.
