Therapeutic effects of HS-3, HS-6, benactyzine, and atropine in soman poisoning of dogs. 1976

J Schenk, and W Löffler, and N Weger

Investigations into the therapeutic properties of various combinations of the bispyridinium salts HS-3 and HS-6 and the cholinolytics atropine and benactyzine against soman poisoning in unanesthetized male beagles were performed. In our investigations we observed that: 1. The most effective protection against soman poisoning was attained if both oximes were applied early i.m. 6 min after intoxication together with the cholinolytics. 2. On the basis of clinical symptoms HS-6 proved to have a more intensive therapeutic effect than HS-3 upon early application. 3. If HS-3 was applied early after s.c. intoxication with low concentrations of soman (up to 3 LD50), a significant protection or reactivation effect on serium cholinesterase was measured. 4. When HS-3 was applied at the beginning of convulsions--generally 28 min after s.c. intoxication--it also raised the rate of surviving animals. 5. The maximal blood levels for HS-3 and HS-6 were measured 20-30 min after i.m. injection; the half-life values of HS-3 and HS-6 in plasma were 45-60 min.

D011220	Pralidoxime Compounds	Various salts of a quaternary ammonium oxime that reconstitute inactivated acetylcholinesterase, especially at the neuromuscular junction, and may cause neuromuscular blockade. They are used as antidotes to organophosphorus poisoning as chlorides, iodides, methanesulfonates (mesylates), or other salts.	2-PAM Compounds,Pyridine Aldoxime Methyl Compounds,2 PAM Compounds,Compounds, 2-PAM,Compounds, Pralidoxime
D003402	Creatine Kinase	A transferase that catalyzes formation of PHOSPHOCREATINE from ATP + CREATINE. The reaction stores ATP energy as phosphocreatine. Three cytoplasmic ISOENZYMES have been identified in human tissues: the MM type from SKELETAL MUSCLE, the MB type from myocardial tissue and the BB type from nervous tissue as well as a mitochondrial isoenzyme. Macro-creatine kinase refers to creatine kinase complexed with other serum proteins.
