Aged (24-month-old) rats were treated chronically with methanesulfonyl fluoride (MSF), an acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitor with selectivity for central nervous system AChE, or with injection vehicle alone. Twelve 0.22 mg/kg IP injections were given over 4 weeks. MSF rats showed significantly

The chemical reactivity and physical properties of methanesulfonyl fluoride (MSF) were quantitatively measured for direct comparison with those of isopropyl methylphosphonofluoridate (GB, sarin) and diisopropyl phosphorofluoridate (DFP). The chemistry involved reaction rate constant measurements of MSF hydrolysis and for reactions

Perioral behaviors induced by neuroleptic drugs have been interpreted as an animal model of tardive dyskinesia. However, these behaviors have also been induced or enhanced by physostigmine, a cholinesterase inhibitor. The latter result is contradictory to the clinical effect of

The SOCS family of proteins are negative-feedback inhibitors of signalling induced by cytokines that act via the JAK/STAT pathway. SOCS proteins can act as ubiquitin ligases by recruiting Cullin5 to ubiquitinate signalling components; however, SOCS1, the most potent member of

Fibrinogen is essential in the intrinsic and extrinsic blood coagulation process. Inhibition of fibrinogen aggregation could lead to anticoagulation effects. The availability of methods for easy quantitative evaluation of the coagulation process is critical to studying coagulation and its inhibition.
