Determination of the excitatory potencies of fluoroquinolones in the central nervous system by an in vitro modelG Schmuck
Bayer AG, Institute of Toxicology, Wuppertal, Germany
Antimicrob Agents Chemother 42:1831-6. 1998..These investigations pointed to the N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor as the probable target of the fluoroquinolone effects...
Rat cortical neuron cultures: an in vitro model for differentiating mechanisms of chemically induced neurotoxicityG Schmuck
Bayer AG, Pharma Research Centre, Wuppertal, Germany
In Vitr Mol Toxicol 13:37-50. 2000..Damage of the cytoskeleton may be considered as an endpoint mechanistically related to degenerative neuropathic effects...
[The importance of standardised cell culture methods for the routine toxicology in pharmaceutical companies]G Schmuck
Bayer AG, D Wuppertal
ALTEX 18:79-80. 2001..The central question of toxicology is the risk assessment. Here, the in vitro toxicology will provide important information by a comparison between human and animal cell cultures under the same conditions...
Neurotoxic mode of action of artemisininGabriele Schmuck
Pharma Research Center, Bayer AG, D 42096, Wuppertal, Germany
Antimicrob Agents Chemother 46:821-7. 2002..Copper-zinc superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase, two other antioxidant enzymes that were investigated, did not show any changes in their mRNA expression in all three cell types after exposure to artemisinin...
Effects of the dithiocarbamate fungicide propineb in primary neuronal cell cultures and skeletal muscle cells of the ratGabriele Schmuck
Bayer AG, Pharma Research Centre, Aprather Weg, 42096 Wuppertal, Germany
Arch Toxicol 76:414-22. 2002..In conclusion, the toxicity of propineb is not comparable to disulfiram, diethyldithiocarbamate or CS(2) neurotoxicity. In regard to these findings, a direct reversible effect of propineb on skeletal muscle cells seems to be more likely...

Neurotoxicology 24:55-64. 2003..It is concluded that this effect of fentrazamide in rats poses no specific risk under the exposure conditions relevant to humans...
An in vitro model for toxicological investigations of environmental neurotoxins in primary neuronal cell culturesG Schmuck
Bayer Pharma Research Center, Wuppertal, Germany
Toxicol Ind Health 12:683-96. 1996..Therefore, the determination of cell-specific end points is necessary to detect the neurotoxic potency and quality of a compound, whereas the cytotoxicity assay limited the tested concentration range...
