Molecular conformation-activity relationship of decamethonium congeners.
BACKGROUND Of the polymethylene bismethonium congeners (C5-C12 and C18), decamethonium (C10) is the most potent neuromuscular blocking agent. We tested the hypothesis that these congeners act as straight molecules and will not bend easily in spite of the

Allosteric Reactions of Horse Serum Cholinesterase [PDF]
The reactions of serum cholinesterase with organic cations, such as decamethonium and atropine, as well as with inorganic cations, such as Sc3+, Eu3+, and Yb3+, have been studied.

Search for potential cholinesterase inhibitors from the zinc database by virtual screening method [PDF]
A virtual screening of the ZINC database was applied for the identification of novel cholinesterase inhibitors. The first step allowed to select compounds with favorable physicochemical properties. Then, the compounds were screened with the pharmacophore

Studies on Muscle-Tone, With Special Reference to Anaesthesia and Specific Relaxant Drugs [PDF]
A brief historical survey of the concept of muscle-tone is given. Muscle-tone is defined as: "the capacity of a muscle to resist extension," An instrument, the Tonometer, working on the "hardness" principle, is described and assessed.

Pharmacological manipulation of L-carnitine transport into L6 cells with stable overexpression of human OCTN2 [PDF]
.: The high-affinity Na+-dependent carnitine transporter OCTN2 (SLC22A5) has a high renal expression and reabsorbs most filtered carnitine. To gain more insight into substrate specificity of OCTN2, we overexpressed hOCTN2 in L6 cells and characterized ...
