Unequal efficacy of pyridinium oximes in acute organophosphate poisoning [PDF]
The use of organophosphorus pesticides results in toxicity risk to non-target organisms. Organophosphorus compounds share a common mode of action, exerting their toxic effects primarily via acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibition.

Examination of effectiveness of chemical scavengers as therapeutics in organophosphate poisoning [PDF]
Cholinergic crisis triggered by inhibition of cholinesterases via organophosphorus nerve agents (OP) and pesticides is treated with atropine and a reactivator of inhibited cholinesterase, called oxime.

Effects of Organophosphorus and Pyrethroid pesticides on antioxidant enzymes and reactivation effects of Pralidoxime: In vitro studies [PDF]
The aim of this work was to investigate the inhibition effects of some organophosphate and pyrethroid pesticides on antioxidant enzymes. In addition, oximes were reported by reactivation ability against pesticide inhibited-acetylcholinesterase and we ...

A COMPARISON OF THE POTENCY OF TRIMEDOXIME AND OTHER CURRENTLY AVAILABLE OXIMES TO REACTIVATE TABUN-INHIBITED ACETYLCHOLINESTERASE AND ELIMINATE ACUTE TOXIC EFFECTS OF TABUN [PDF]
Tabun (O-ethyl-N,N-dimethyl phosphoramidocyanidate) belongs to highly toxic organophosphorus compounds misused as chemical warfare agents for military as well as terroristic purposes. It differs from other highly toxic organophosphates by its chemical structure and by the fact that tabun-inhibited acetylcholinesterase is extraordinarily difficult to ...

The Evaluation of Benefit of Newly Prepared Reversible Inhibitors of Acetylcholinesterase and Commonly Used Pyridostigmine as Pharmacological Pretreatment of Soman-Poisoned Mice [PDF]
Aim: The ability of four newly prepared reversible inhibitors of acetylcholinesterase (6-chlorotacrine, 7-phenoxytacrine, compounds 1 and 2) and currently used carbamate pyridostigmine to increase the resistance of mice against soman and the efficacy of ...

Oxime Derivatives: A Valid Pharmacophore in Medicinal Chemistry
Oximes are considered as versatile pharmacophores in discovery new class of medicinally active agents. The incorporation of hydroxylamine‐containing moieties to the carbonyl compounds can generate variety oximes. The current review focused on 49 reports, describing about various activities, including antimicrobial, anticancer, anti‐inflammatory ...

Therapeutic efficacy of a novel bispyridinium oxime K203 and commonly used oximes (HI-6, obidoxime, trimedoxime, methoxime) in soman-poisoned male rats and mice [PDF]
The potency of a novel oxime K203 in reactivating soman-inhibited acetylcholinesterase and reducing acute toxicity of soman was compared with commonly used oximes (HI-6, obidoxime, trimedoxime, methoxime) using in vivo methods. The study determining percentage of reactivation of soman-inhibited blood and tissue acetylcholinesterase in rats showed that ...
