Acetylcholinesterase, Specific Acetylcholinesterase and Total Protein Concentrations in the Brain Regions of Broiler Chickens Fed Dietary Monosodium Glutamate

Turkish Journal of Agriculture: Food Science and Technology, 2019
The study was carried out to examine the effect of varied levels of dietary monosodium glutamate on acetylcholinesterase, specific acetylcholinesterase and total protein concentrations in the brain regions of broiler chickens.

Protection of insect neurons by erythropoietin/CRLF3-mediated regulation of pro-apoptotic acetylcholinesterase

Scientific Reports, 2022
Cytokine receptor-like factor 3 (CRLF3) is a conserved but largely uncharacterized orphan cytokine receptor of eumetazoan animals. CRLF3-mediated neuroprotection in insects can be stimulated with human erythropoietin.

A novel process driving Alzheimer's disease validated in a mouse model: Therapeutic potential

Alzheimer’s & Dementia: Translational Research & Clinical Interventions, 2022
Introduction The neuronal mechanism driving Alzheimer's disease (AD) is incompletely understood. Methods Immunohistochemistry, pharmacology, biochemistry, and behavioral testing are employed in two pathological contexts—AD and a transgenic mouse model—to

AChE-activity in critically ill patients with suspected septic encephalopathy: a prospective, single-centre study

BMC Anesthesiology, 2020
Background Up to 70% of septic patients develop a diffuse brain dysfunction named “septic associated encephalopathy” which is often solely based on clinical impressions.

Biochemical and molecular responses of the freshwater snail Pila sp. to environmental pollutants, abiotic, and biotic stressors

Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2022
The semi-sessile, ectothermic, amphibious mollusc Pila globosa receives less attention for studying its environmental aspects. Its ecological role, ecotoxic and physiological responses to environmental factors including pollution and during dormant ...

Involvement of acetylcholinesterase inhibition in paralyzing effects of monocrotophos in Caenorhabditis elegans

Journal of Basic and Applied Zoology, 2018
Background Organophosphorus insecticides (OPI) are among the most commonly used class of pesticides in agricultural and domestic scenarios. Clinical presentations of acute OPI toxicity are attributable to acetylcholinesterase inhibition and ensuing ...

A novel, non-neuronal acetylcholinesterase of schistosome parasites is essential for definitive host infection

Frontiers in Immunology, 2023
Schistosomes are long-lived parasitic worms that infect >200 million people globally. The intravascular life stages are known to display acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity internally as well as, somewhat surprisingly, on external tegumental ...

A Comparison of the Potency of the Oxime HLö-7 and Currently Used Oximes (HI-6, Pralidoxime, Obidoxime) to Reactivate Nerve Agent-Inhibited Rat Brain Acetylcholinesterase by in vitro Methods

Acta Medica, 2005
1. The efficacy of the oxime HLö-7 and currently used oximes (pralidoxime, obidoxime, HI-6) to reactivate acetylcholinesterase inhibited by various nerve agents (sarin, tabun, cyclosarin, VX) was tested by in vitro methods. 2. Both H oximes (HLö-7, HI-6)

Serum cholinesterases are differentially regulated in normal and dystrophin-deficient mutant mice

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2012
The cholinesterases, acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase (pseudocholinesterase), are abundant in the nervous system and in other tissues. The role of acetylcholinesterase in terminating transmitter action in the peripheral and central nervous ...

The Effect of Parathion on Red Blood Cell Acetylcholinesterase in the Wistar Rat

Journal of Toxicology, 2016
Organophosphorus (OP) pesticide poisoning is a significant problem worldwide. Research into new antidotes for these acetylcholinesterase inhibitors, and even optimal doses for current therapies, is hindered by a lack of standardized animal models.
