On the multifunctionality of cholinesterases

Chemico-Biological Interactions, 2005
Here we present novel information on non-classical functions of cholinesterases and on a cross-talk linking the two enzymes AChE and BChE. The first part of the article is focussed on the regulation of ChEs and the effects acquired when one of the proteins is knocked down (siRNA for BChE, AChE knock-out mouse).

Cholinesterase in the Lens

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1967
Recent reports implicating anticholinesterase agents in the production of lens opacities have led us to look for the target of these agents, that is, the enzyme cholinesterase, in the lens. A form of cholinesterase, sensitive to low concentrations of eserine, has been found.

Lithium and cholinesterase

Progress in Neuro-Psychopharmacology, 1980
Abstract 1. 1. Preliminary data show that lithium carbonate administered in patients with endogenous depression significantly inhibits serum cholinesterase. 2. 2. The interaction of lithium with cholinergic system could be envisaged as a possible mechanism of lithium therapeutic action in affective disorders.

Cholinesterases in Neurofibromas

Archives of Dermatology, 1962
Cholinesterase is an enzyme associated with neural tissue. It has been demonstrated chemically and histochemically in sensory and motor tissue of the central nervous system, the myoneural junction, and the sensory end-organs. 1 Specific cholinesterase, which hydrolyzes acetylcholine and acetylbetamethylcholine (methacholine), is found in autonomic ...
