Phosphorylcholine Phosphatase: A Peculiar Enzyme of Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Pseudomonas aeruginosa synthesizes phosphorylcholine phosphatase (PchP) when grown on choline, betaine, dimethylglycine or carnitine. In the presence of Mg2+ or Zn2+, PchP catalyzes the hydrolysis of p‐nitrophenylphosphate (p‐NPP) or phosphorylcholine (Pcho).

Pseudomonas aeruginosa phosphorylcholine phosphatase (PchP) catalyzes the hydrolysis of phosphorylcholine (Pcho), is activated by Mg2+ or Zn2+, and is inhibited by high concentrations of substrate. This study has shown that PchP contains two sites for alkylammonium compounds (AACs): one in the catalytic site near the metal ion‐phosphoester pocket, and ...

ABSTRACT This study evaluated the multifunctional ability of Beta vulgaris leaves in dual therapy for Alzheimer's disease (AD) and type 2 diabetes (T2D). Flavonoid‐rich extracts of B. vulgaris leaves (FREBVL) were tested for their antidiabetic properties. The inhibition of α‐amylase and α‐glucosidase was assessed. Anti‐cholinesterase activities against

Near‐Infrared Diffuse Optical Tomography
Diffuse optical tomography (DOT) is emerging as a viable new biomedical imaging modality. Using near‐infrared (NIR) light, this technique probes absorption as well as scattering properties of biological tissues. First commercial instruments are now available that allow users to obtain cross‐sectional and volumetric views of various body parts ...

Cholinergic Responses of Schistosoma mansoni [PDF]
It is concluded that the use of pharmacological agents can provide opportunities to recognize and define similarities and differences in the mechanisms of transmission of nerve impulses in the parasite and the mammalian host.

Experimental and theoretical findings show that the C atoms of the −N+(CH3)3 moiety of acetylcholine and some analogues form tetrel bonds that are robust enough to assemble cations into supramolecular infinite chains; similar tetrel bonds are present also in substrate/protein adducts, specifically they act as ancillary interactions in the binding of ...

Exploring the role of mechanical forces on tendon development using in vivo model: A scoping review
Abstract Tendons transmit the muscle contraction forces to bones and drive joint movement throughout life. While extensive research have indicated the essentiality of mechanical forces on tendon development, a comprehensive understanding of the fundamental role of mechanical forces still needs to be impaerted. This scoping review aimed to summarize the

Current State and Perspectives of Exfoliated Zeolites
Layered zeolites join the class of 2D solids that can be dispersed, like graphene, by soft‐chemical treatment to provide unilamellar nanosheets in solution. Aside from solving a 3‐decade old challenge, this enables using zeolites for a top‐down assembly of hierarchical nanocomposites with any type of nanomaterials or compound.
