Mitigating organophosphate nerve agent, soman (GD), induced long-term neurotoxicity: Saracatinib, a Src Tyrosine Kinase inhibitor, as a potential countermeasure [PDF]

Journal of Neuroinflammation
Background Acute exposure to soman (GD), an organophosphate nerve agent (OPNA), irreversibly inhibits acetylcholinesterase (AChE), induces seizures, and could be fatal if not treated immediately.

Proteomics Reveals Mechanisms of Metabolic Dysregulation in Soman Neurotoxicity [PDF]

Toxics
Soman, an organophosphorus nerve agent, induces neurotoxicity primarily by inhibiting acetylcholinesterase, triggering a series of pathological events including cholinergic crisis, seizures, calcium overload, oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction ...

Soman induces endoplasmic reticulum stress and apoptosis of cerebral organoids via the GRP78‐ATF6‐CHOP signaling pathway [PDF]

FEBS Open Bio
Soman is an organophosphorus compound that induces neurotoxicity. In addition to its direct toxic effects resulting from acetylcholine accumulation, neurotoxicity may also be exacerbated by inducing endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress.

Cystamine reduces neurodegeneration and epileptogenesis following soman-induced status epilepticus in rats [PDF]

Experimental Biology and Medicine
Acute exposure to a seizure-inducing dose of an organophosphorus nerve agent inhibits acetylcholinesterase, leading to pharmacoresistance if benzodiazepine treatment is delayed.

Enhanced Antitumor Activity of Korean Black Soybean Cultivar ‘Soman’ by Targeting STAT-Mediated Aerobic Glycolysis [PDF]

Antioxidants
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

Sex‐based structural and functional MRI outcomes in the rat brain after soman (GD) exposure‐induced status epilepticus

Epilepsia Open, 2023
Objective Exposure to the nerve agent, soman (GD), induces status epilepticus (SE), epileptogenesis, and even death. Although rodent models studying the pathophysiological mechanisms show females to be more reactive to soman, no tangible sex differences ...

A wrench in the works of human acetylcholinesterase: soman induced conformational changes revealed by molecular dynamics simulations. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Irreversible inactivation of human acetylcholinesterase (hAChE) by organophosphorous pesticides (OPs) and chemical weapon agents (CWA) has severe morbidity and mortality consequences. We present data from quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) and
