Interactions of cyclodextrins and their derivatives with toxic organophosphorus compounds

open access: yesBeilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2016
The aim of this review is to provide an update on the current use of cyclodextrins against organophosphorus compound intoxications. Organophosphorus pesticides and nerve agents play a determinant role in the inhibition of cholinesterases.

Topical treatment of peripheral neuropathic pain: applying the evidence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Patients with peripheral neuropathic pain (NP) may only achieve partial pain relief with currently recommended first-line oral treatments, which are also associated with systemic adverse events.

Organ‐specific redox imbalances in spinal muscular atrophy mice are partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotides

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...

Exploiting macrocyclic polylactam for sensing V-series nerve agents: A computational study

open access: yesResults in Chemistry
The nerve agents are organophosphorus compounds (OPs) developed as chemical warfare agents (CWAs) that inhibit acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and lead to impeding neurological signals in mammals.

Chemical Weapons: History of the Study of Organophosphorus Toxic Agents Abroad

open access: yesВестник войск РХБ защиты, 2023
Organophosphorus compounds occupy a unique positon among all chemical warfare agents (CWA's). Since the 1930-s their high toxicity, wide range of physical-chemical properties and complex action attracted close attention of foreign military experts.

Is there a "safety zone" in the mandibular premolar region where damage to the mental nerve can be avoided if periapical extrusion occurs? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The mandibular premolars are located close to the mental foramina (Fig. 1). As such, various events affecting these teeth, such as odontogenic infection1 and orthodontic, endodontic, periodontal or surgical misadventure, may result in neurosensory ...

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

Investigating possibilities and recent trends for the development of novel decontamination technologies [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Technical Review
Despite international prohibition of chemical warfare agents (CWAs), defined in Chemical Weapons Convention, recent events during military conflict in Syria and isolated events in Salisbury (UK) and Kuala Lumpur (Malesya) airport prove that these agents ...

Development of acetylcholinesterase immobilized CMD (Carboxymethyldextran) chip-based sensor for the detection of nerve agent simulant parathion

open access: yesCumhuriyet Science Journal, 2020
In this study, a carboxymethyldextran chip based sensor system is developed that selectively recognizes and binds nerve agent molecules used in chemical weapons. Nerve agents fall under the group of organophosphorus compounds and irreversibly inhibit the

Activity of Cyclic AMP Phosphodiesterases and Adenylyl Cyclase in Peripheral Nerve after Crush and Permanent Transection Injuries [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Recent studies demonstrate that cAMP levels are tightly controlled during demyelination and remyelination in Schwann cells as cAMP decreases to 8–10% of normal following both sciatic nerve crush or permanent transection injury and only begins to increase
