Trends in the Recent Patent Literature on Cholinesterase Reactivators (2016–2019) [PDF]
Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) is the key enzyme responsible for deactivating the ACh neurotransmitter. Irreversible or prolonged inhibition of AChE, therefore, elevates synaptic ACh leading to serious central and peripheral adverse effects which fall under

New Heterostilbene and Triazole Oximes as Potential CNS-Active and Cholinesterase-Targeted Therapeutics [PDF]
New furan, thiophene, and triazole oximes were synthesized through several-step reaction paths to investigate their potential for the development of central nervous systems (CNS)-active and cholinesterase-targeted therapeutics in organophosphorus ...

Effect of Seven Newly Synthesized and Currently Available Oxime Cholinesterase Reactivators on Cyclosarin-Intoxicated Rats [PDF]
Seven new oxime-based acetylcholinesterase reactivators were compared with three currently available ones (obidoxime, trimedoxime, HI-6) for their ability to lessen cholinesterase inhibition in blood and brain of cyclosarin-treated rats.

From Mechanisms to Materials: Oximate Reactivity and Emerging Strategies for Organophosphate Detoxification. [PDF]
The development of effective strategies for the detoxification of organophosphorus (OP) nerve agents has evolved from the early mechanistic studies of François Terrier and collaborators, who first elucidated the exceptional nucleophilicity of α‐effect species such as oximes and hydroxamates, to the modern design of supramolecular and material‐based ...

Pyridinium-2-carbaldoximes with quinolinium carboxamide moiety are simultaneous reactivators of acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase inhibited by nerve agent surrogates [PDF]
The pyridinium-2-carbaldoximes with quinolinium carboxamide moiety were designed and synthesised as cholinesterase reactivators. The prepared compounds showed intermediate-to-high inhibition of both cholinesterases when compared to standard oximes. Their

Return to Spontaneous Circulation in a Patient With Cholinergic Syndrome at the Emergency Department of Buea Regional Hospital, Cameroon. [PDF]
ABSTRACT With the increasing misuse of herbal treatment and pesticides, cases of cholinergic syndrome following herbal treatment or organophosphate poisoning have become increasingly common in our milieu. However, when advanced, mortality is high. We report the successful management of a case involving a 54‐year‐old African female with a known history ...

Tuning Butyrylcholinesterase Inactivation and Reactivation by Polymer‐Based Protein Engineering
Organophosphate nerve agents rapidly inhibit cholinesterases thereby destroying the ability to sustain life. Strong nucleophiles, such as oximes, have been used as therapeutic reactivators of cholinesterase‐organophosphate complexes, but suffer from ...
