Return to Spontaneous Circulation in a Patient With Cholinergic Syndrome at the Emergency Department of Buea Regional Hospital, Cameroon. [PDF]
ABSTRACT With the increasing misuse of herbal treatment and pesticides, cases of cholinergic syndrome following herbal treatment or organophosphate poisoning have become increasingly common in our milieu. However, when advanced, mortality is high. We report the successful management of a case involving a 54‐year‐old African female with a known history ...

Pro: Oximes should be used routinely in organophosphate poisoning
In poisoning with organophosphorus compounds (OP), patients can only profit from the regeneration of acetylcholinesterase, when the poison load has dropped below a toxic level. Every measure that allows an increase of synaptic acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity at the earliest is essential for timely termination of the cholinergic crisis.

Transitioning from Oxime to the Next Potential Organophosphorus Poisoning Therapy Using Enzymes
For years, organophosphorus poisoning has been a major concern of health problems throughout the world. An estimated 200,000 acute pesticide poisoning deaths occur each year, many in developing countries. Apart from the agricultural pesticide poisoning, terrorists have used these organophosphorus compounds to attack civilian populations in some ...

A HPLC‐DAD method was developed and validated for single and simultaneous quantification of obidoxime, pralidoxime, and HI‐6 for pharmacokinetic studies and clinical samples. Abstract Oximes such as pralidoxime (2‐PAM), obidoxime (Obi), and HI‐6 are the only currently available therapeutic agents to reactivate inhibited acetylcholinesterase (AChE) in ...

Tuning Butyrylcholinesterase Inactivation and Reactivation by Polymer‐Based Protein Engineering
Butyrylcholinesterase (BChE)‐polymer‐oxime conjugates are synthesized by in situ atom transfer radical polymerization and azide‐alkyne “click” chemistry. The conjugate's activity depends on the electrostatic properties of the polymers and the oxime to BChE ratio.

Oxime Derivatives: A Valid Pharmacophore in Medicinal Chemistry
Oximes are considered as versatile pharmacophores in discovery new class of medicinally active agents. The incorporation of hydroxylamine‐containing moieties to the carbonyl compounds can generate variety oximes. The current review focused on 49 reports, describing about various activities, including antimicrobial, anticancer, anti‐inflammatory ...

The actions of chloride channel blockers, barbiturates and a benzodiazepine on Caenorhabditis elegans glutamate- and ivermectin-gated chloride channel subunits expressed in Xenopus oocytes [PDF]
The pharmacology of Caenorhabditis elegans glutamate-gated chloride (GluCl) channels was determined by making intracellular voltage-clamp recordings from Xenopus oocytes expressing GluCl subunits. As previously reported (Cully et al.
