Enhanced Antitumor Activity of Korean Black Soybean Cultivar ‘Soman’ by Targeting STAT-Mediated Aerobic Glycolysis [PDF]
Black soybeans have numerous health benefits owing to their high polyphenolic content, antioxidant activity, and antitumor effects. We previously reported that the Korean black soybean cultivar ‘Soman’ possesses higher anthocyanin and isoflavone contents

Cystamine reduces neurodegeneration and epileptogenesis following soman-induced status epilepticus in rats [PDF]
Acute exposure to a seizure-inducing dose of an organophosphorus nerve agent inhibits acetylcholinesterase, leading to pharmacoresistance if benzodiazepine treatment is delayed.

Proinflammatory cytokines, oxidative stress, and organ function as biomarkers of soman (GD) chronic neurotoxicity [PDF]
Organophosphate (OP) nerve agents, such as soman (GD), pose great risk to neurological health by inhibiting acetylcholinesterase, leading to seizures, epilepsy, and behavioral deficits.

Structure-activity studies of bispyridinium antinicotinics to select candidates to treat soman intoxication as part of a combined therapy. [PDF]
The standard treatment of atropine and oximes is insufficiently effective against all organophosphorus nerve agents. Bispyridinium non-oxime nicotinic antagonists are promising components to add to treatments.

Changes of Cholinesterase Activity in the Erythrocytes, Plasma, Diaphragm, Liver and Various Parts of the Brain in the Rabbit Following Transfusion of Erythrocytes with Soman Inhibited Acetylcholinesterase [PDF]
1. The changes of cholinesterase activity in rabbit blood, peripheral tissues and the central nervous system following transfusion of erythrocytes with soman inhibited acetylcholinesterase were demonstrated. 2. After incubation with soman for 0.5 or 24 h,

Assessment of the Therapeutic and Anticonvulsive Efficacy of a Drug Combination Consisting of Trihexyphenidyle and HI-6 in Soman-Poisoned Rats [PDF]
1. The influence of two anticholinergic drugs (atropine, trihexyphenidyle) on the effectiveness of antidotal treatment to eliminate soman-induced lethal effects and convulsions was studied in rats. 2.

Antiseizure and Neuroprotective Efficacy of Midazolam in Comparison with Tezampanel (LY293558) against Soman-Induced Status Epilepticus [PDF]
Acute exposure to nerve agents induces status epilepticus (SE), which can cause death or long-term brain damage. Diazepam is approved by the FDA for the treatment of nerve agent-induced SE, and midazolam (MDZ) is currently under consideration to replace ...

A Comparison of the Neuroprotective Efficacy of Pharmacological Pretreatment and Antidotal Treatment in Soman-Poisoned Rats [PDF]
1. To study the influence of pharmacological pretreatment (PANPAL or pyridostigmine combined with biperiden) and antidotal treatment (the oxime HI-6 plus atropine) on soman-induced neurotoxicity, male albino rats were poisoned with a lethal dose of soman

The Influence of Anticholinergic Drug Selection on the Effectiveness of Oximes Against Soman-Induced Supralethal Poisoning in Mice [PDF]
1. The influence of anticholinergic drugs (atropine, benactyzine, biperiden) on the efficacy of monopyridinium and bispyridinium oximes (HI-6, BI-6, obidoxime, pralidoxime, methoxime) on soman-induced supralethal poisoning was studied in mice. 2.
