In Vitro Evaluation of Antidiabetic, Antioxidant, and Anticholinergic Properties of Different Parts of Bilberry (<i>Vaccinium myrtillus</i> L.) From the Eastern Black Sea Region, With LC/MS-MS Analysis of Their Chemical Composition in Food Applications. [PDF]
Food Sci NutrThis study evaluates the phytochemical composition and biological activities of wild bilberry (Vaccinium myrtillus L.) extracts. Leaf extracts showed strong antioxidant, antidiabetic, and anticholinesterase effects, highlighting their potential in managing diabetes and Alzheimer's disease.

Comparison of butyrylcholinesterase and acetylcholinesterase [PDF]
Biochemical Journal, 1989 Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) are compared, the first focus being on the high homologies of the molecular forms, and the homologies in protein sequences. Cholinesterases are the prototype of a new family of related serine hydrolases. Secondly, the distribution and regulation of AChE and BChE is reviewed.

Evolution of Acetylcholinesterase and Butyrylcholinesterase in the Vertebrates: An Atypical Butyrylcholinesterase from the Medaka Oryzias latipes [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) are thought to be the result of a gene duplication event early in vertebrate evolution. To learn more about the evolution of these enzymes, we expressed in vitro, characterized, and modeled a recombinant cholinesterase (ChE) from a teleost, the medaka Oryzias latipes.

Electrochemical MIP Sensor for Butyrylcholinesterase [PDF]
Polymers, 2019 Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) mimic the binding sites of antibodies by substituting the amino acid-scaffold of proteins by synthetic polymers. In this work, the first MIP for the recognition of the diagnostically relevant enzyme butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE) is presented.

Molecular forms of butyrylcholinesterase and obesity [PDF]
Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2010 This study compared obese (N = 134) and unobese (N = 92) male blood donors, regarding the relative intensity (RI) and activity of different molecular forms (G1, G2, G4 and G1-ALB) of butyrylcholinesterase (BChE, EC 3.1.1.8) found in plasma, thereby searching for an association between these variables with obesity and SNPs of exons 1 and 4 of the BCHE ...

Caffeine Inhibits Acetylcholinesterase, But Not Butyrylcholinesterase [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2013 Caffeine is an alkaloid with a stimulant effect in the body. It can interfere in transmissions based on acetylcholine, epinephrine, norepinephrine, serotonin, dopamine and glutamate. Clinical studies indicate that it can be involved in the slowing of Alzheimer disease pathology and some other effects. The effects are not well understood. In the present

Butyrylcholinesterase and the cholinergic system
Neuroscience, 2013 The cholinergic system plays important roles in neurotransmission in both the peripheral and central nervous systems. The cholinergic neurotransmitter acetylcholine is synthesized by choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) and its action terminated by acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE).

Serum butyrylcholinesterase in type 2 diabetes mellitus: a biochemical and bioinformatics approach
Lipids in Health and Disease, 2005 Background Butyrylcholinesterase is an enzyme that may serve as a marker of metabolic syndrome. We (a) measured its level in persons with diabetes mellitus, (b) constructed a family tree of the enzyme using nucleotide sequences downloaded from NCBI ...
