The cholinergic hypothesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) has spurred the development of numerous structural classes of compounds with different pharmacological profile aimed at increasing central cholinergic neurotransmission. Thus proving a symptomatic treatment for this disease are cholinomimetics with the pharmacological
The N-monophenylcarbamate analogues of neostigmine methyl sulfate (6) and pyridostigmine bromide (8) together with their precursors (5), (7), and the N(1)-methylammonium analogues of (-)-phenserine (12), (-)-tolserine (14), (-)-cymserine (16) and (-)-phenethylcymserine (18) were synthesized to produce long-acting peripheral inhibitors of
Animal models of visceral pain have gained much attention as an important tool to elucidate the possible mechanisms underlying functional gastrointestinal (GI) disorders. Here we report the development of a new, minimally invasive behavioral model of abdominal pain induced by
Anaesthesia and intensive care, 40(6), 999-1006 (2012-12-01)
Six years ago, a study performed in our department reported that the incidence of postoperative residual curarisation (PORC) was 39%. The reassessment of neuromuscular monitoring and reversal of neuromuscular block in routine anaesthetic practice is relevant now that sugammadex has
