TABLE 1.
Efficacy of LY293558 (15 mg/kg) against soman-induced seizures and lethality, when administered along with atropine and HI-6, at 20 minutes after soman exposure
SOMAN+ Atropine+ HI-6 | SOMAN+ Atropine+ HI-6+ LY293558 | |
---|---|---|
Latency to SE (min)a | 9.5 ± 2 | 9.85 ± 0.7 |
Mortality rateb | 10/28 (35.7) | 0/18 (0) |
Seizure controlc | 0/28 | 18/18 |
Latency to stop SE (min)d | N/A | 36.9 ± 3.2 |
Data are mean ± S.E.M. and indicate the time elapsed between injection of soman and initiation of generalized seizures.
Data are number (%) of animals that died out of the total sample size.
Data are number of animals in which seizures were controlled by the administration of atropine+HI-6 or atropine+HI-6+LY293558 out of the total sample size.
Data are mean ± S.E.M. and indicate the time elapsed between injection of LY293558 and the suppression of behavioral seizures below stage 2.
