Targeted Synthesis of 1-(4-Hydroxyiminomethylpyridinium)-3-pyridiniumpropane Dibromide – A New Nerve Agent Reactivator

open access: yesMolecules, 2007
Preparation of 1-(4-hydroxy-iminomethylpyridinium)-3-pyridiniumpropane dibromide is described. This compound represents a new acetylcholinesterase (AChE) reactivator, which has no substituents on the second pyridinium ring as found in other commonly used

Effects of the Mutant TP53 Reactivator APR-246 on Therapeutic Sensitivity of Pancreatic Cancer Cells in the Presence and Absence of WT-TP53 [PDF]

open access: yesCells, 2022
The TP53 tumor suppressor is mutated in ~75% of pancreatic cancers. The mutant TP53 protein in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas (PDAC) promotes tumor growth and metastasis.

A newly developed oxime K203 is the most effective reactivator of tabun-inhibited acetylcholinesterase

open access: yesBMC Pharmacology and Toxicology, 2018
Background Based on in vitro and in vivo rat experiments, the newly developed acetylcholinesterase (AChE) reactivator, K203, appears to be much more effective in the treatment of tabun poisonings than currently fielded oximes.

Molecular Modeling and In Vitro Studies of a Neutral Oxime as a Potential Reactivator for Acetylcholinesterase Inhibited by Paraoxon

open access: yesMolecules, 2018
The present work aimed to compare the small, neutral and monoaromatic oxime, isatin-3-oxime (isatin-O), to the commercial ones, pralidoxime (2-PAM) and obidoxime, in a search for a new potential reactivator for acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibited by ...

Structure of HI-6*sarin-acetylcholinesterase determined by X-ray crystallography and molecular dynamics simulation: reactivator mechanism and design. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2009
Organophosphonates such as isopropyl metylphosphonofluoridate (sarin) are extremely toxic as they phosphonylate the catalytic serine residue of acetylcholinesterase (AChE), an enzyme essential to humans and other species.

A rapid in vitro assay for evaluating the effects of acetylcholinesterase inhibitors and reactivators in the rat basolateral amygdala

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2022
We established a novel brain slice assay to test the ability of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) reactivators to prevent ACh-induced M1 muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (mAChR) dependent hyperexcitability observed after exposure to the organophosphate (OP ...

A Reactivator of Organophosphorus Nerve Agent-Inhibited Human Acetylcholinesterase: Characterization, Mechanistic Insights and Design

open access: yes, 2022
Koh, John T.Organophosphorus nerve agents are highly toxic compounds which pose a threat worldwide. These compounds induce toxicity by covalently binding to the active site serine of acetylcholinesterase, which results in inhibition of the enzyme ...
