Synthesis of p-Coumarates With Potential Anti-Alzheimer's Action: Enzyme Inhibition and In Silico Studies. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a fatal neurodegenerative disorder that affects cognition, memory, and behavior. Such a disease is considered the most common cause of dementia and affects a large portion of the elderly population worldwide. Currently, cholinesterase inhibitors are used to reduce the symptoms and rate of progression of this disease.

Butyrylcholinesterase–Protein Interactions in Human Serum [PDF]
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
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 ...
