Development of a model cell culture system in which to study early effects of neuropathy-inducting organophosphates

Certain organophosphorus (OP) compounds produce a delayed neuropathy in man and susceptible animal species after early inhibition and aging of the enzyme, neurotoxic esterase (neuropathy target esterase, or NTE). In this study, the human neuroblastoma cell line, SY-5Y, was examined for its potential...
