Abstract:
:The neurological effects of four synthetic pyrethroids resmethrin, permethrin, cypermethrin, and deltamethrin have been investigated in the rat to establish whether there is a correlation between the clinical-functional status of the animal and peripheral nerve damage as measured biochemically. Neuromuscular dysfunction was assessed by means of the inclined plane test and peripheral nerve damage by reference to beta-glucuronidase and beta-galactosidase activity increases in nerve tissue homogenates from treated and control animals. A transient functional impairment was found in animals treated with any one of the four pyrethroids tested and in all cases this was maximal at the end of the 7 day subacute dosing regimen. Significant increases in beta-glucuronidase and beta-galactosidase were found 3-4 weeks after the start of dosing in the distal portion of the sciatic/posterior tibial nerves from permethrin, cypermethrin, and deltamethrin treated animal; but no changes were found in remesthrin-dosed animals. It is concluded therefore, that there is no direct correlation between the time-course of the neuromuscular dysfunction and the neurobiochemical changes. This suggests that these pyrethroids have at least two distinct actions--a short-term pharmacological effect and at near-lethal dose levels a more chronic neurotoxic effect that results in sparse axonal nerve damage.
