| Resumo: | Lavandula penduculata (Mill.) Cav., common English name French lavender, belongs to the Lamiaceae family and has been used as a medicinal plant in infusions for respiratory and digestive systems and as a therapeutic agent with antiseptic action for cleaning wounds [1,2]. The K14HPV16 mice is a skin squamous carcinoma model that can be used to test the antitumoral properties of several chemical and natural products [3]. The aim of this work was to evaluate the effect of the hydroethanolic French lavender extract (FLE) on body weight, relative organs weights, food and water consumption in an HPV-16-transgenic mice model. The extract was obtained from a maceration with ethanol/water (80:20, v/v), and the phenolic composition was determined through HPLC-DAD-ESI/MS. Twenty-eight male mice were randomly divided into four groups (n=7/group) according to their genotype: group I (HPV16- control); II (HPV16- FLE); III (HPV16+ control) and IV (HPV16+ FLE). The FLE was administrated orally in drinking water at 6.8 mg/10mL/animal to animals from groups II and IV and changed every 4 days. The animals were kept under controlled conditions such as temperature, light and humidity |
