Abstract:
:The therapy of organophosphorus compound (OP) poisoning is still a challenge to clinical toxicologists. To alleviate peripheral respiratory failure oximes, e.g. obidoxime and pralidoxime, are used to reactivate inhibited acetylcholinesterase (AChE) with the intention to restore the disturbed neuromuscular function. In severe human OP poisoning the persistence of poison may counteract effective reactivation by oximes. Therefore, the study was designed to investigate the effect of the clinically used oximes obidoxime, pralidoxime and the experimental compounds HI 6 and HLö 7 in the presence of different paraoxon concentrations. The mouse phrenic nerve-diaphragm preparation was used as a functional model. After washout of paraoxon remarkably low concentrations of obidoxime or HLö 7 were sufficient for restoration of paraoxon-impaired muscle force. In the presence of paraoxon, obidoxime was the most effective oxime and therapeutically used concentrations (10-20microM) were able to restore muscle function even in the presence of 1microM paraoxon. HLö 7 was less effective, but superior to HI 6 and pralidoxime. Generally, a reactivation of AChE to about 30-40% of normal was sufficient for restoration of muscle force. Thus, the data presented strongly support the administration of appropriately dosed oximes, preferably obidoxime, in paraoxon-poisoned patients to restore paraoxon-impaired muscle force.
