Non-quaternary oximes detoxify nerve agents and reactivate nerve agent-inhibited human butyrylcholinesterase [PDF]
Amitai et al. identified 4 potential small molecule antidotes toward nerve agents poisoning by high-throughput-screening of over 150,000 compounds. Unique non-quaternary oximes represent new potential antidotes for future development as they detoxified ...

Transcriptional responses of the nerve agent-sensitive brain regions amygdala, hippocampus, piriform cortex, septum, and thalamus following exposure to the organophosphonate anticholinesterase sarin [PDF]
Background Although the acute toxicity of organophosphorus nerve agents is known to result from acetylcholinesterase inhibition, the molecular mechanisms involved in the development of neuropathology following nerve agent-induced seizure are not well ...

Theoretical study of the molecular aspect of the suspected novichok agent A234 of the Skripal poisoning [PDF]
Novichoks are the suspected nerve agents in the March 2018 Skripal poisoning. In this context, the novichok agent A234 (chemical structure proposed by Mirzayanov) was studied using computational methods to shed light on its molecular, electronic ...

Nerve agents: emergency preparedness [PDF]
Nerve agents (NAs) are a highly toxic group of chemical warfare agents. NAs are organophosphorus esters with varying physical and chemical properties depending on the individual agent. The most recently developed class of NA is‘Novichok’, the existence of which was first revealed in the early 1990s, just before Russia signed the Chemical Weapons ...

Nerve Agents and Their Detection [PDF]
Nerve agents are major chemical warfare agents with the “G series” and “V series” being the most widely known because of their lethal effect. Although not conspicuously used in major wars, the potential detrimental impact on modern society had been revealed from the sarin terror attack on Tokyo subway, which affected thousands of people.
