Jd. Laval et al., RADIOPROTECTIVE EFFECT OF LOW-DOSES OF 2-(1-NAPHTHYLMETHYL)-2-IMIDAZOLINE ALONE OR ASSOCIATED WITH PHOSPHOROTHIOATES, European journal of medicinal chemistry, 28(9), 1993, pp. 709-713
In the mouse, the intraperitoneal injection of 2-(1-naphthylmethyl)-2-
imidazoline has a radioprotective effect even at low doses. Its associ
ation with S-[2-(3-aminopropyl)aminoethyl] phosphorothioate (WR 2721)
or 3-methylaminopropyl)-amino-propyl]phosphorothioate (WR 151327) at l
ow doses led to an enhancement of their respective radioprotective act
ivities without any apparent side effects. These results strengthen th
e interest of this non-sulphur compound as a radioprotector.
