The therapeutic response rates of patients to donepezil vary from 20% to 60%, one of the reasons is their genetic differences in donepezil-metabolizing enzymes, which directly influence liver metabolism. However, the mechanism of donepezil metabolism and

Donepezil ameliorates oxaliplatin-induced peripheral neuropathy via a neuroprotective effect
Oxaliplatin induces severe peripheral neuropathy. The effect of donepezil, a drug used for treatment of Alzheimer's disease, on oxaliplatin-induced peripheral neuropathy was investigated using both in vivo and in vitro models.

Synthesis and Evaluation of Novel Cinnamic Acid Hybrids With Antiacetylcholinesterase, Antioxidant, and Anti-Inflammatory Properties. [PDF]
In this work, we identified two novel pleiotropic sinapic acid derivatives with excellent anti‐acetylcholinesterase, antioxidant, and anti‐inflammatory properties. Alzheimer's disease, one of the most widespread neurodegenerative disorders, is known for its multifactorial nature that makes it challenging to treat.

Age-Dependent Remodeling of the Sciatic Nerve Proteome in 5xFAD Mice Can Be Attenuated by Exercise or Donepezil Treatment to Maintain Neuromuscular Function. [PDF]
Sciatic nerve proteome remodeling, particularly of mitochondrial‐centric pathways, occurs at 4 months of age in 5xFAD mice, coinciding with onset of neuromuscular dysfunction. Exercise or the acetylcholinesterase inhibitor donepezil, begun prior to onset, delays these phenotypes, suggesting early peripheral phenotypes of Alzheimer's Disease may have ...

Donepezil Potentiates Nerve Growth Factor-Induced Neurite Outgrowth in PC12 Cells
Donepezil is a potent and selective acetylcholinesterase inhibitor developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. To elucidate whether donepezil causes neuronal differentiation, we examined its effect on nerve growth factor (NGF)-induced neurite ...
