Proline-Based Carbamates as Cholinesterase Inhibitors [PDF]
Series of twenty-five benzyl (2S)-2-(arylcarbamoyl)pyrrolidine-1-carboxylates was prepared and completely characterized. All the compounds were tested for their in vitro ability to inhibit acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE), and

Cholinesterase inhibitors: drugs looking for a disease?
Maggini and colleagues examine the evidence on cholinesterase inhibitors for treating dementia. "What seemed a biologically plausible intervention," they say, "has not led to a proven, real improvement in patients' well-being."

Use of Inhibitors in Cholinesterase Histochemistry [PDF]
PRESENT-DAY histochemical methods for demonstrating cholinesterases require the use of inhibitors in order to distinguish between acetyl- (that is, true, or specific) cholinesterase (AChE) and butyryl- (non-specific) cholinesterase (ChE). The histochemical technique determines AChE and ChE together, so that if either enzyme is inhibited without the ...

Cholinesterase Inhibitors: Structure of Eserine [PDF]
ESERINE (physostigmine) was first isolated from the Calabar bean in the latter half of the last century1, but it was not until much later that its activity on the heart was demonstrated to be due to inhibition of acetylcholinesterase2,3. It is one of the few compounds that are equally active as inhibitors of both true and pseudo-cholinesterase and has ...

Cholinesterase inhibitors and hospitalization for bradycardia: a population-based study. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Cholinesterase inhibitors are commonly used to treat dementia. These drugs enhance the effects of acetylcholine, and reports suggest they may precipitate bradycardia in some patients.

Cholinesterase inhibitors for delirium [PDF]
Delirium is now the preferred term to describe acute confusional states. It is experienced by 10 to 30% of all hospital inpatients. Delirium is potentially reversible and is related to several adverse outcomes, including increased hospital length of stay, poor functional status, persistent cognitive impairment, need for institutional care and probably ...

Association of cognitive enhancers and incident seizure risk in dementia: a population-based study
Background Although individuals with dementia have a high risk of developing seizures, whether seizures are associated with cholinesterase inhibitors, which are commonly prescribed to treat individuals with dementia, remains unknown.

Mass spectrometry in ocular drug research
Abstract Mass spectrometry (MS) has been proven as an excellent tool in ocular drug research allowing analyzes from small samples and low concentrations. This review begins with a short introduction to eye physiology and ocular pharmacokinetics and the relevance of advancing ophthalmic treatments.
