3,3'-Iminodipropionitrile (IDPN) is a neurotoxic compound that causes both a proximal neurofilamentous axonopathy and loss of the vestibular sensory hair cells. We used immunocytochemistry to examine changes in the expression of heavy, medium and light neurofilament (NF-H, NF-M, NF-L) proteins

Iminodipropionitrile (IDPN) was given to rats on diets with normal copper levels, 5 ppm, and to rats on diets with high copper levels, 100 ppm. The former developed neurological symptoms, namely choreoathetoid head movements, circling and retropulsion, while the latter
Does copper ameliorate the vestibular toxicity of iminodipropionitrile (IDPN)?

Gene therapy, 18(9), 884-890 (2011-04-08)
Loss of balance is often due to loss of vestibular hair cells. In mammals, regeneration of functional hair cells in the mature sensory epithelium is limited; therefore, loss of sensory cells can lead to debilitating balance problems. Delivery of the

Experimental and toxicologic pathology : official journal of the Gesellschaft fur Toxikologische Pathologie, 64(7-8), 791-796 (2011-03-11)
Exposure of iminodipropionitrile (IDPN) to rodents produces permanent behavioral syndrome characterized by repetitive head movements, circling and back walking. Other synthetic nitriles of industrial importance such as crotonitrile and allylnitrile are also able to produce similar motor deficits in experimental
