Sodium hydrogen-S-(3-amino-2-hydroxypropyl) phosphorothioate (WR-77913): toxicity and bone marrow radioprotection. 1982

O A Mendiondo, and A M Connor, and P Grigsby

Experiments have been carried out to compare the toxicity and radioprotective effect of sodium hydrogen-S-(3-amino-2-hydroxypropyl) phosphorothioate (WR-77913) with those of S-2-(3-aminopropylamino)ethyl phosphorothioic acid (WR-2721). The drugs were given intraperitoneally to 12 week-old female BALB/c mice 30 minutes before whole body irradiation. Lethality at 30 days was the endpoint used. The drug LD50/30 was 678 mg/kg for WR-2721 and 3574 mg/kg for WR-77913. The LD50/30 for WR-77913 combined with 500 mg/kg of WR-2721 was 3328 mg/kg. The LD50/30 for misonidazole was 380 mg/kg when given in combination with 500 mg/kg of WR-2721 and 801 mg/kg when combined with 2200 mg/kg of WR-77913. Protection of bone marrow by WR-77913 and WR-2721 was comparable at doses close to the maximum tolerable dose (MTD, drug dose lethal to 10% of the animals at 30 days), but WR-77913 gave better protection at 35% of the MTD. These characteristics of low toxicity, non-additive toxicity with WR-2721, less toxicity in combination with misonidazole and adequate bone marrow protection at 25% of the MTD, make WR-77913 a protector worthy of further investigation.

D008920	Misonidazole	A nitroimidazole that sensitizes normally radio-resistant hypoxic cells to radiation. It may also be directly cytotoxic to hypoxic cells and has been proposed as an antineoplastic.

D009946	Organothiophosphorus Compounds	Compounds containing carbon-phosphorus bonds in which the phosphorus component is also bonded to one or more sulfur atoms. Many of these compounds function as CHOLINERGIC AGENTS and as INSECTICIDES.	Compounds, Organothiophosphorus
D011837	Radiation-Protective Agents	Drugs used to protect against ionizing radiation. They are usually of interest for use in radiation therapy but have been considered for other purposes, e.g. military.

D001853	Bone Marrow	The soft tissue filling the cavities of bones. Bone marrow exists in two types, yellow and red. Yellow marrow is found in the large cavities of large bones and consists mostly of fat cells and a few primitive blood cells. Red marrow is a hematopoietic tissue and is the site of production of erythrocytes and granular leukocytes. Bone marrow is made up of a framework of connective tissue containing branching fibers with the frame being filled with marrow cells.

D005720	Gamma Rays	Penetrating, high-energy electromagnetic radiation emitted from atomic nuclei during NUCLEAR DECAY. The range of wavelengths of emitted radiation is between 0.1 - 100 pm which overlaps the shorter, more energetic hard X-RAYS wavelengths. The distinction between gamma rays and X-rays is based on their radiation source.
