nerve agent

Procaine hydrochloride (Novocaine HCl) is the hydrochloride salt form of procaine, a benzoic acid derivative with local anesthetic and antiarrhythmic properties. Procaine binds to and inhibits voltage-gated sodiumchannels, thereby inhibiting the ionic flux required for the initiation and conduction of impulses. In addition, this agent increases electrical excitation threshold, reduces rate of rise of action potential and slows nerve impulse propagation thereby causing loss of sensation.

Pralidoxime Chloride (2-PAM chloride) is a useful agent in the treatment of organophosphate poisoning. Pralidoxime binds to organophosphate-inactivated acetylcholinesterase, used to combat poisoning by organophosphates or acetylcholinesterase inhibitors (nerve agents).

Ropivacaine hydrochloride monohydrate (LEA-103 HCl) is an anaesthetic agent and blocks impulse conduction in nerve fibres through inhibiting sodium ion influx reversibly.

(+)-Sparteine ​​is a quinoline alkaloid extracted from Scotch broom, a sodium channel blocker and a class 1a antiarrhythmic agent. It competitively inhibits the activity of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in nerve cells and is a ganglionic blocking agent.

Protriptyline Hydrochloride is the hydrochloride salt form of protriptyline, a tricyclic secondary amine with an antidepressant property. Protriptyline hydrochloride (Protriptyline HCl) blocks the re-uptake of norepinephrine and serotonin by nerve terminals, thereby increasing available norepinephrine and serotonin. In addition, this agent exhibits anticholinergic activity.

Tocainide hydrochloride, a sodium channel blocker, inhibits the sodium channels in the pain-producing foci in nerve membranes. It is an orally effective antiarrhythmic agent, structurally and pharmacologically similar to lidocaine [1][2].

Amoxapine (CL-67772) exerts its antidepressant effect by inhibiting the re-uptake of norepinephrine and, to a lesser degree, of serotonin, at adrenergic nerve endings and blocks the response of dopamine receptors to dopamine. Amoxapine is a tricyclic antidepressant of the dibenzoxazepine class. This drug is used to treat symptoms of depression and may cause tardive dyskinesia. Amoxapine also binds to alpha-adrenergic, histaminergic, and cholinergic receptors which accounts for many of the side effects seen with this agent.

Quinacrine is a compound that is commonly used as an anti-protozoal agent. It inhibits voltage-dependent sodium channels (IC50: 3.3 μM) and suppresses aldehyde oxidase (IC50: 3.3 μM). Quinacrine prevents misfolding of prion protein (EC50: 0.3 μM). As an e

Oxypyrronium bromide is an anticholinergic and spasmolytic agent containing quaternary ammonium. In animal models it inhibited gastric motility, hypotension induced by vagus stimulation or intravenation of acetylcholine; salivation induced by chorda tympani nerve stimulation, and contraction elicited by preganglionic cervical sympathetic nerve stimulation.

ACAF4 is a neurotrophic agent which significantly increases survival in PC12 neuronal cells and enhances the effect of nerve growth factor (NGF). ACAF4 induces neurite outgrowth, and modulates ERK1/2 and AKT signaling pathways.

Mazaticol is an anticholinergic agent, which blocks the muscarinic acetylcholine receptors and cholinergic nerve activity. Mazaticol potently inhibits 3H-QNB and 3H-PZ binding. Mazaticol can bind to the M2 receptors with high affinity. Mazaticol shows inhibitory effects on dopamine uptake in the striatal nerve terminal. Mazaticol has research in parkinsonian syndrome.

Atropine Oxide is a derivative of Atropine. Atropine is a medication to treat certain types of nerve agent and pesticide poisonings as well as some types of slow heart rate and to decrease saliva production during surgery. Atropine is a competitive antagonist of the muscarinic acetylcholine receptor types M1, M2, M3, M4 and M5. It is classified as an anticholinergic drug (parasympatholytic).

Metamizil hydrochloride is a cholinolytic agent -- an agent that blocks the transmission of excitation from cholinergic nerve fibers -- and an antagonist of the mediator acetylcholine.

Pralidoxime is a potent antidote for organophosphate poisoning, effectively reactivating acetylcholinesterase (AChE) that has been inhibited by nerve agents. It achieves this reactivation through a direct nucleophilic attack of its oxime moiety on the phosphorus center of the bound nerve agent, restoring AChE function.

MB327, a bipyridine nonoxime compound, enhances neuromuscular function by restoring the activity of nicotinamide acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) against carbachol desensitization through a typical type II PAM approach. Additionally, MB327 is effective in neutralizing nerve agent poisoning [1] [2].

Isofuranodiene protects GalN LPS-induced liver injury in SD rats, it may be a potential functional food ingredient for the prevention and treatment of liver diseases. Isofuranodiene has anticancer activity, by inhibiting the proliferation and inducing apo
