Critically Ill COVID-19 Patients Show Reduced Point of Care-Measured Butyrylcholinesterase Activity—A Prospective, Monocentric Observational Study

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2022
A biomarker for risk stratification and disease severity assessment in SARS-CoV-2 infections has not yet been established. Point of care testing (POCT) of butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) enables early detection of systemic inflammatory responses and ...

Enhancement of Fear Extinction Memory and Resistance to Age-Related Cognitive Decline in Butyrylcholinesterase Knockout Mice and (R)-Bambuterol Treated Mice

open access: yesBiology, 2021
Butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) is detected in plaques preferentially in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and may be associated with stress disorders. However, the physiological function of BChE in the central nervous system remains to be further investigated. BChE

4-Phenethyl-1-Propargylpiperidine-Derived Dual Inhibitors of Butyrylcholinesterase and Monoamine Oxidase B

open access: yesMolecules, 2021
The multi-target-directed ligands (MTDLs) strategy is encouraged for the development of novel modulators targeting multiple pathways in the neurodegenerative cascade typical for Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Based on the structure of an in-house irreversible

Butyrylcholinesterase and the cholinergic system

open access: yesNeuroscience, 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).

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 ...

Butyrylcholinesterase and Cognitive Function

open access: yesInternational Psychogeriatrics, 2001
Butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE) is expressed in brain structures involved in cognition, but the effect of selective BuChE inhibitors on human cognitive function is unknown. We report a patient whose cognitive function deteriorated following a reduction and improved following reinstitution of ethopropazine, a selective BuChE inhibitor.

Hupresin Retains Binding Capacity for Butyrylcholinesterase and Acetylcholinesterase after Sanitation with Sodium Hydroxide

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2017
Hupresin is a new affinity resin that binds butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) in human plasma and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) solubilized from red blood cells (RBC). Hupresin is available from the CHEMFORASE company. BChE in human plasma binds to Hupresin and

Resurrection and Reactivation of Acetylcholinesterase and Butyrylcholinesterase [PDF]

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, 2019
AbstractOrganophosphorus (OP) nerve agents and pesticides present significant threats to civilian and military populations. OP compounds include the nefarious G and V chemical nerve agents, but more commonly, civilians are exposed to less toxic OP pesticides, resulting in the same negative toxicological effects and thousands of deaths on an annual ...

Carbamates with Differential Mechanism of Inhibition Toward Acetylcholinesterase and Butyrylcholinesterase [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Most carbamates are pseudoirreversible inhibitors of cholinesterases. Phenothiazine carbamates exhibit this inhibition of acetylcholinesterase but produce reversible inhibition of butyrylcholinesterase, suggesting that they do not form a covalent bond ...
