Comparisons were made of purified acetylcholinesterase from the heads of wild type house flies with a mutant form (which bound organophosphates and carbamates less tightly). Using 12 substrates and 6 quaternary inhibitors, the only substantial difference was that the Km

Cholinergic neurotransmission plays a significant role in intrinsic cardiac ganglia with the action of acetylcholine being terminated by acetylcholinesterase (AChE, EC 3.1.1.7). Anatomical studies were performed to characterize neurons associated with AChE and a closely related enzyme, butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE, EC

In this study, it was demonstrated the ameliorative effect of zingerone (ZO) (25 and 50 mg/kg body weight) against vancomycin (VCM) (200 mg/kg body weight) administered to rats on some metabolic enzymes' activities in the lung, liver, kidney, and testis tissues of
Sultan Darvesh et al.

Cholinesterase inhibitors used to treat the symptoms of Alzheimer's disease (AD) inhibit both acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE), albeit to different degrees. Because central and peripheral neurons, including intrinsic cardiac neurons located on the surface of the mammalian heart, express
