Significant effort has been invested into the development of cholinesterase reactivators that are capable of treating organophosphorus poisoning. A series of 12 coumarin derivatives equipped with linker‐connected nonaromatic terminal amino moieties were prepared in this study.

Human Carboxylesterase 1 Stereoselectively Binds the Nerve Agent Cyclosarin and Spontaneously Hydrolyzes the Nerve Agent Sarin [PDF]
Organophosphorus (OP) nerve agents are potent toxins that inhibit cholinesterases and produce a rapid and lethal cholin-ergic crisis. Development of protein-based therapeutics is be-ing pursued with the goal of preventing nerve agent toxicity and ...

Nerve agent hydrolysis activity designed into a human drug metabolism enzyme. [PDF]
Organophosphorus (OP) nerve agents are potent suicide inhibitors of the essential neurotransmitter-regulating enzyme acetylcholinesterase. Due to their acute toxicity, there is significant interest in developing effective countermeasures to OP poisoning.

Evaluation of high-affinity phenyltetrahydroisoquinoline aldoximes, linked through anti-triazoles, as reactivators of phosphylated cholinesterases. [PDF]
Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) is a pivotal enzyme in neurotransmission. Its inhibition leads to cholinergic crises and could ultimately result in death.

Potency of new structurally different oximes to reactivate cyclosarin-inhibited human brain acetylcholinesterases [PDF]
Antidotes currently used for organophosphorus pesticide and nerve agent intoxications consist of anticholinergics (atropine mainly) and acetylcholinesterase (AChE, EC 3.1.1.7) reactivators called oximes. Owing to the wide-spread of these toxic compounds worldwide, development of antidotes in the case of first aid is needed. To select the most promising

In vitro detoxification of cyclosarin in human blood pre-incubated ex vivo with recombinant serum paraoxonases [PDF]
An ex vivo protocol was developed to assay the antidotal capacity of rePON1 variants to protect endogenous acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase in human whole blood against OP nerve agents. This protocol permitted us to address the relationship between blood rePON1 concentrations, their kinetic parameters, and the level of protection ...
