  GMOS-IFU observational data were used to study the detailed two dimensional
gas kinematics and morphological structures within the ~500x421 pc^2 of the
active Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 4501. We provide empirical evidences of possible
outflowing material from the central zones of NGC 4501 to the observer. In
addition, we performed a spectral synthesis and diagnostic diagram analysis to
determine respectively the dominant stellar population in the inner disc of
this galaxy and to unveil the actual nature of the central engine of NGC 4501.
The principal finding of this work is that the central regions of NGC 4501 are
dominated by non circular motions connected to probable outflows of matter from
the nuclear regions of this galaxy. A predominant old stellar population
inhabits the internal zones of NGC 4501 excluding the possibility of ongoing
starburst activity in the central parsecs of this galaxy. The latter result is
confirmed by the diagnostic diagram analysis that establishes a preponderant
active galactic nucleus character for NGC 4501. These outcomes together provide
a general description of the gas motion and the corresponding nuclear activity
in the internal disc of NGC 4501 in an attempt to elucidate the possible
relation among the central activity and the induced kinematic properties of
this nearby galaxy.
