Characterization of Acetylcholinesterase in Caco-2 Cells

open access: yes, 2002
Acetylcholinesterase (acetylcholine hydrolase, EC 3.1.1.7) was solubilized from cultured Caco-2 cells. It was established that this enzyme activity is acetylcholinesterase by substrate specificity (acetylthiocholine, acetyl-β-methylthiocholine> ...

Gentamicin and magnesium chloride normalizes cholinesterase and ATPase activities in rats acutely exposed to dichlorvos (DDVP) pesticide

open access: yesThe Ukrainian Biochemical Journal, 2018
This study investigated possible use of gentamicin and magnesium chloride as antidotes of dichlorvos pesticide poisoning. Thirty albino rats were randomly divided into 5 groups (n = 6). Group 1 served as negative control and received distilled water only.

Acetylcholinesterase [AChE] activity and isozyme pattern in normal and lithium-treated developing chick brain

open access: yes, 2004
Literature Survey: - Acetylcholinesterase [AChE] is an enzyme that terminates Acetylcholine [ACh] mediated neurotransmission. Its wide neuronal and non-neuronal cellular distribution has made it the focus of intense research.
