This indicates that nimodipine, a centrally acting calcium channel blocker, may contribute to the amelioration of dichlorvos-induced neurotoxicity by attenuation of calcium-mediated disruption of cytoskeletal homeostasis, without preventing NTE inhibition.

Flow cytometric analysis demonstrated that trichlorfon and its degradation product dichlorvos-induced apoptosis in a dose-dependent manner and Hoechst 33342 staining experiments revealed trichlorfon/dichlorvos-induced nucleus condensation.
Intracellular Ca (2+) level ([Ca (2+)](i)) in SH-SY5Y cells increased after treatment with trichlorfon but was significantly reduced by pre-treatment with a combination of a calcium channel blocker, an inositol trisphosphate receptor inhibitor, and a ryanodine receptor inhibitor.

Administration of nimodipine, a centrally acting calcium channel blocker, along with dichlorvos restricted all these alterations to within control values and could also ameliorate certain behavioural deficits by maintaining the dopaminergic neurotransmitter system.
