Galantamine-Curcumin Hybrids as Dual-Site Binding Acetylcholinesterase Inhibitors [PDF]
Galantamine (GAL) and curcumin (CU) are alkaloids used to improve symptomatically neurodegenerative conditions like Alzheimer’s disease (AD). GAL acts mainly as an inhibitor of the enzyme acetylcholinesterase (AChE).

Galantamine Based Novel Acetylcholinesterase Enzyme Inhibitors: A Molecular Modeling Design Approach
Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) enzymes play an essential role in the development of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Its excessive activity causes several neuronal problems, particularly psychopathies and neuronal cell death.

Protective Effect of Galantamine against Doxorubicin-Induced Neurotoxicity
Background and aims: Doxorubicin (DOX) causes cognitive impairment (chemobrain) in patients with cancer. While DOX damages the cholinergic system, few studies have focused on the protective effects of cholinergic function on chemobrain.

The Effect of Galantamine on Liver Function in Hepatic Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury in Rats [PDF]
Background: Hepatic ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury may affect different biological and functional roles of the liver. The present study aims to evaluate the effects of galantamine as a cholinergic agent on the acute and late phases of IR. Materials and

Effect of alpha-7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor activation on beta-amyloid induced recognition memory impairment. Possible role of neurovascular function [PDF]
PURPOSE: To evaluate the effects of PHA-543613 (α7-nAChR agonist) and galantamine (acetylcholinesterase inhibitor (AChEI)) on recognition memory and neurovascular coupling (NVC) response in beta-amyloid (Aβ) 25-35-treated mice.

Galantamine protects against synaptic, axonal, and vision deficits in experimental neurotrauma
Our goal was to investigate the neuroprotective effects of galantamine in a mouse model of blast-induced indirect traumatic optic neuropathy (bITON). Galantamine is an FDA-approved acetylcholinesterase inhibitor used to treat mild-moderate Alzheimer's ...
