Abstract Pyrethroids are synthetic chemicals similar to the pyrethrins, but more toxic to insects and mammals and persistent in the environment than pyrethrins. This study aimed to identify the bioactive compounds of Amphora coffeaeformis extract (ACE) and to determine their potential protective activity against deltamtherin (DEL) insecticide in rats. Six groups of male albino rats were treated for 4 weeks included the control group, ACE-treated group (772 mg/kg b.w.), DEL-exposed group (13.5 mg/kg b.w.), DEL plus ACE-treated group, and the groups treated with ACE for 14 days before or after DEL. At the end of treatment, blood and tissue samples were collected for biochemical assays. The GC-MS identified 18 compounds; most of them are fatty acid methyl ester, and the HPLC identified 8 polyphenols and significant amounts of vitamins A, C, B1, B2, B9, and E. The in vivo results revealed that DEL induced significant alterations in hematological and serum biochemical parameters, oxidative stress markers, proinflammatory cytokines, and NF-κB. ACE protects against DEL toxicity, and the protection was more pronounced in the groups treated with ACE plus DEL or ACE after DEL suggesting that ACE could be used for the prevention or the treatment of DEL toxicity. It could be concluded that ACE is a promising candidate for the production of bioactive compounds and should be considered in the pharmaceutical and food application. Keywords Deltamtherin .

Introduction Pyrethroids are the synthetic derivatives of the natural pyrethrins, which extracted from the pyrethrum flower (Chrysanthemum cinerariaefolium). Synthetic pyrethroids are considered to be safe insecticides; however, recent reports showed major pathological implications (Nguemo et al. 2019a, b; Petrovici et al. 2020). It was reported that the use of pesticides is linked with the

harmful effects on human health and has a role in the incidence of asthma, cancer, Parkinson’s disease, diabetes, leukemia, and impair children’s cognitive abilities (Kim et al. 2017). Deltamethrin (DEL) [α-cyano-3phenoxybenzyl-(1R, S)-cis, trans-3-(2,2-dibromovinyl)2,2-dimethylcyclopropanecarboxylate] is a type II highly active synthetic pyrethroid (Cost
