Residual behavioral incapacitation after therapy of soman intoxication: the effect of a soman simulator. 索曼中毒治疗后残余行为失能:索曼模拟器的效果。

{"title":"Residual behavioral incapacitation after therapy of soman intoxication: the effect of a soman simulator.","authors":"O L Wolthuis,&nbsp;R A Vanwersch,&nbsp;H P Van Helden","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"<p><p>When rats are intoxicated with high doses of the cholinesterase inhibitor soman (5-8 X LD50), the compound is temporarily stored in a \"depot\" from which it is gradually released. Thus, despite an initially successful therapy with the oxime HI-6 and atropine, the released soman re-intoxicates the organism and death may ensue in several hours. Soman simulators, i.e., non-toxic structural analogues of soman, have been synthesized which are capable of preventing death in soman poisoned rats by modifying the accumulation and release of soman from its depot. Earlier experiments have demonstrated that prophylaxis with the simulator pinacolyl dimethyl phosphinate (PDP) combined with HI-6 and atropine is capable of preventing death in animals heavily poisoned with soman. Moreover, gross observation of successfully treated animals suggested that they were in fairly good condition with respect to general health and neurological functioning. Since the degree of behavioral impairment remaining after soman intoxication and subsequent treatment may be a crucial factor for survival under difficult circumstances, quantitative behavioral experiments were carried out to substantiate these observational findings. Using a recently developed, tv/microprocessor-based system for the measurement of coordinated hindlimb movement in the rat, the residual behavioral effects of successful soman therapy were evaluated. Performance of animals treated with atropine sulphate (25 mg/kg, IP), soman (5 X LD50, IV), HI-6 (56 mg/kg, IV) and the soman simulator PDP was compared to that of animals similarly treated but without additional PDP treatment and to that of saline controls in a series of experiments, varying dose and time of injection of PDP.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)</p>","PeriodicalId":19112,"journal":{"name":"Neurobehavioral toxicology and teratology","volume":"8 2","pages":"127-30"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1986-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"14833729","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Behavioral effects in mice exposed to nitrous oxide or halothane: prenatal vs. postnatal exposure. 暴露于一氧化二氮或氟烷的小鼠的行为影响:产前与产后暴露。

Whereas many agents that produce behavioral terata have very different effects at different stages of brain development, these inhalant anesthetics had similar effects, whether exposure occurred on the 14th day of gestation or two days after birth. Both treatment times and both agents were associated with delays in the appearance of developmental landmarks and delays in the appearance of righting reflexes and locomotion. The level of general activity just before weaning tended to be low in all treated groups and was significantly depressed in males exposed to N2O postnatally.

The persistence of effects over the first three weeks of life does not fit with the idea that the behavioral effects are mediated by continued presence of the drug.
