Effect of PAM-2 Cl, HI-6, and HGG-12 in poisoning by tabun and its thiocholine-like analog in the rat.
It has been shown that HI-6 was the most potent oxime so far known in poisoning by sarin, VX , and soman, but its protective effect in tabun poisoning, allegedly due to poor reactivation of inhibited ChE, was much less pronounced. We have found that the thiocholine-like analog of tabun , O-ethyl, N-N- dimethyamino -S-(2-diethylaminoethyl)- thiophosphatemethylsul fomethylate (Ta-S-N+), was very useful in resolving this problem and established the relationship between reactivating and protective effects of PAM-2 Cl, HI-6, and HGG-12 in rats. PAM-2 Cl (protective ratio (PR) = 22.1) and HI-6 (PR = 24.8), combined with atropine, were very effective against Ta-S-N+ poisoning and reactivating inhibited RBC AChE in vitro and rat blood ChE in vivo. The inefficiency of PAM-2 Cl (PR = 1.6) and HI-6 (PR = 2) in tabun poisoning was due to their inadequacy to reactive tabun -inhibited ChEs . The protective effects of HGG-12 in tabun (PR = 2.8) and Ta-S-N+ poisoning (PR = 2.6) were low, and in the absence of any reactivation of inhibited ChEs , have been attributed to its direct pharmacological effects, which were much more potent in the comparison with PAM-2 Cl or HI-6. It is concluded that the reactivation of inhibited ChE is of decisive importance in the efficient protection in poisoning by tabun and other known chemical warfare nerve agents, whereas their direct pharmacological effects are of limited value, allowing survival of animals only against a few LD50s .

PAM-2 Cl, HI-6, and HGG-12 in soman and tabun poisoning.
Acute sc toxicity of soman increased in the order, mice----rats----guinea pigs----dogs, being 12.6 times more toxic to dogs (LD50 = 0.05 mumol/kg) than to mice. It was 2.8 times more toxic than tabun to mice and 35 times more toxic to dogs. HI-6 was the least toxic and had similar toxicity values to the four animal species studied and HGG-12 the most toxic of the three oximes used. HGG-12 has shown the greatest interspecies variation (rats:dogs = 1:19.5). HI-6, HGG-12, and PAM-2 Cl (in conjunction with atropine and diazepam) revealed the best protective effect in soman-poisoned dogs, with the respective protective indices of 9, 6.3, and 3.5, followed by guinea pigs. In tabun poisoning the best, but relatively low, protective effect was found only in guinea pigs. The introduction of diazepam increased the protective effects of atropine-oxime combination in soman and tabun poisoning by 10 to 80%. We suggest that the high toxicity of soman and low toxicity of HI-6 may be anticipated in man. The inefficiency of HI-6, HGG-12, and PAM-2 Cl in tabun poisoning points either to the search of new compounds or to the use of the mixture of the oximes found to be effective against the known chemical warfare nerve agents.
