“…5,23 The histological changes observed in the muscles of rats treated with this substance, and the accompanying elevations of plasma enzyme activities, were very similar to those observed with other myotoxic polyaminobenzenes. [1][2][3] 2,3,6-Triaminopyridine was much less toxic to the heart than to skeletal muscle. In this respect, it resembles ring-methylated p-phenylenediamines 3 rather than 1,2,4-triaminobenzene and N-methylated p-phenylenediamines, which cause a similar degree of necrosis in both cardiac and skeletal muscle.…”

“…Aromatic polyamines such as 1,2,4-triaminobenzene (I) and the N-methyl and ring-methyl derivatives of p-phenylenediamine (II) are selectively toxic to striated muscle in animals. [1][2][3] These compounds form unusually stable free radicals and readily autoxidize at neutral pH, generating superoxide radical and other 'active oxygen' species. [2][3][4] Such substances are also selectively oxidized by the cytochrome c/cytochrome oxidase system of mitochondria, establishing alternative pathways for electron transport in the respiratory chain with concomitant disruption of mitochondrial function.…”

“…It has been reported that free radicals are associated with the onset of skeletal muscle atrophy [50][51][52]. Additionally, polyamines have been shown to provide protection against free radicals [53][54][55][56][57][58], potentially in conjunction with the endogenous antioxidant glutathione (GSH/ GSSG).…”

“…Munday et coll. [8] ont constaté après une injection en sous-cutanée de la p-PD chez le rat une nécrose musculaire de sévérité variable touchant le diaphragme et la langue. Dans une autre étude chez le rat [9] une rhabdomyolyse aiguë avec nécrose segmentaire des myofibrilles, une prolifération des cellules satellites et une infiltration par des macrophages ont été observées à la 72 e heure.…”
