One of the synthetized pyrimidine compounds, 2-piperidino-7-methyl-6-oxo-5,6-dihydro-(7H) pyrrolo [2,3-d] pyrimidine maleate (MS-430), has neurotropic effects in vitro. Therefore, we studied the effect of MS-430 on regeneration of the myelinated fibers of the peroneal and sural nerve of Sprague-Dawley rats after crush injury in two tests, intraperitoneally administered daily 1.0 mg/kg (test 1, n = 7) and 7.5 mg/kg (test 2, n = 8) of MS-430, respectively. We then compared the effects with the control rats (n = 7) administered similarly as in the tests with physiological saline for 14 days from the day after crushing. Twenty-four hours after completion of the administration, the sural nerves at 7.5 mm and 15 mm distal to the crushed site, and the peroneal nerve at 15 mm distal to the crushed site were removed from each rat used in the two tests and from the controls, and then embedded into epoxy resin. In the sural nerve, the total number of regenerated myelinated fibers per nerve in test 2 was greater (P < 0.05) than in the controls at 7.5 mm distal to the crushed site. However, it was similar among the three groups at 15 mm distal to the crushed site. In the case of the peroneal nerve, it was greater in both tests 1 and 2 than in the controls, however the difference was not statistically significant.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
