In this study, we report the SAR and characterization of two groups of isosorbide-based cholinesterase inhibitors. The first was based directly on the clinically used nitrate isosorbide mononitrate (ISMN) retention of the 5-nitrate group and introduction of a series of

In vivo estimation of β(2)-nicotinic acetylcholine receptor availability with molecular neuroimaging is complicated by competition between the endogenous neurotransmitter acetylcholine and the radioligand (123)I-3-[2(S)-2-azetidinylmethoxy]pyridine ((123)I-5-IA). We examined whether binding of (123)I-5-IA is sensitive to increases in extracellular levels of acetylcholine

In continuing research that led us to identify a new class of carbamate derivatives acting as potent (Rampa et al. J. Med. Chem. 1998, 41, 3976) and long-lasting (Rampa et al. J. Med. Chem. 2001, 44, 3810) acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitors

Isosorbide-2-benzyl carbamate-5-benzoate is a highly potent and selective BuChE inhibitor. Meanwhile, isosorbide-2-aspirinate-5-salicylate is a highly effective aspirin prodrug that relies on the salicylate portion to interact productively with human BuChE. By integrating the salicylate group into the carbamate design, we
Enhancing cholinergic function improves performance on various cognitive tasks and alters neural responses in task specific brain regions. We have hypothesized that the changes in neural activity observed during increased cholinergic function reflect an increase in neural efficiency that leads
