Wide awake under anesthesia: Scoline apnoea update [PDF]

open access: yesSerbian Journal of Anesthesia and Intensive Therapy, 2016
Butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) catalyses the hydrolysis of choline esters and thus deactivates muscle relaxants such as succinylcholine and mivacurium. The prolonged neuromuscular blockade following the use of succinylcholine, called scoline apnea, occurs ...

Electrochemical MIP Sensor for Butyrylcholinesterase [PDF]

open access: yesPolymers, 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.

Butyrylcholinesterase–Protein Interactions in Human Serum [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021
Measuring various biochemical and cellular components in the blood is a routine procedure in clinical practice. Human serum contains hundreds of diverse proteins secreted from all cells and tissues in healthy and diseased states. Moreover, some serum proteins have specific strong interactions with other blood components, but most interactions are ...

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

open access: yesFrontiers 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 ...
