These results suggest that leptophos seems to transfer from blood to affinitive tissues such as sciatic nerve or leg muscles and to accumulate there easily in initial stage after repeated iv injections, and that this causes the enhancement of neuropathy with repeated administrations of divided critical dose of leptophos in both iv and oral administration.

One group received glycerol formal as vehicle group, two groups received 30 mg/kg leptophos or 40 mg/kg triortho-cresyl phosphate (TOCP) (L group and T group), two groups received 2.4 mg/kg Ca (2+) (0.3 ml/kg Calcicol) 24 h before leptophos or TOCP administration, and the last two groups received 2.4 mg/kg Ca after leptophos or TOCP administration, respectively.
This shows that polyneuropathy and the recovery function of nerves and muscles suffering from polyneuropathy can be alleviated, as long as calcium tonic is administered before the clinical signs develop.

2413587 Sheets L, Norton S: Peripheral nerve damage in chicks following treatment with organophosphorus compounds in ovo. Toxicol Appl Pharmacol. 1985 May;78(3):412-20.

Chick embryos were treated with tri-o-cresyl phosphate (TOCP) or leptophos, organophosphorus compounds that cause delayed neurotoxicity.
Consistent with the evidence of denervation there was increased terminal branching of motor axons in femoral (sartorius) and tibial (external gastrocnemius and peroneus longus) leg muscles.
