Abstract
Treatment of mice with 25 mg/kg azimexon (BM 12.531) resulted in an increase ln granulocyte-macrophage colony-forming cells (GM-CFC) in spleen and bone marrow after a transient depression in the cell populations. Bone marrow monocyte-macrophage colony-forming cells (MM-CFC) increased at 7 days after treatment, and splenic MM CFC were least affected by azimexon treatment. The increase in granulocytic and monocytic colony-forming cells may play a role in the previously reported protection by azimexon against radiation and drug-induced toxicity.Entities:
