Esterase acetylcholine

Application of the CCM to small sets (n < 6) of enzyme inhibitors revealed correlations between the inhibitory activity and the chirality measure of the inhibitors, calculated by Eq. (26) for the entire structure or for the substructure that interacts with the enzyme (pharmacophore) [41], This was done for arylammonium inhibitors of trypsin, Di-dopamine receptor inhibitors, and organophosphate inhibitors of trypsin, acetylcholine esterase, and butyrylcholine esterase. Because the CCM values are equal for opposite enantiomers, the method had to be applied separately to the two families of enantiomers (R- and S-enantiomers).

A particular interest for clinical applications was a possibility for detection of dopamine by its oxidation on nickel [19], cobalt [65], and osmium [66] hexacyanofer-ates. Except for oxidation of dopamine, cobalt and osmium hexacyanoferrates were active in oxidation of epinephrine and norepinephrine. For clinical analysis it is also important to carry out the detection of morphine on cobalt [67] and ferric [68] hexacyanoferrates, as well as the detection of oxidizable amino acids (cystein, methionine) by manganous [69] and ruthenium [70] hexacyanoferrate-modified electrodes. In general, oxidation of thiols was first shown for Prussian blue [71] and nickel hexacyanoferrate [72], This approach has been used for the detection of thiols in rat striatum microdialysate [73], Alternatively, the detection of thiocholine with Prussian blue was employed for pesticide determination in acetylcholine-esterase test [74],... 

Tor [7] developed a new method for the preparation of thin, uniform, self-mounted enzyme membrane, directly coating the surface of glass pH electrodes. The enzyme was dissolved in a solution containing synthetic prepolymers. The electrode was dipped in the solution, dried, and drained carefully. The backbone polymer was then cross-linked under controlled conditions to generate a thin enzyme membrane. The method was demonstrated and characterized by the determination of acetylcholine by an acetylcholine esterase electrode, urea by a urease electrode, and penicillin G by a penicillinase electrode. Linear response in a wide range of substrate concentrations and high storage and operational stability were recorded for all the enzymes tested. 

The same group reported in 1986 a sensitive and selective HPLC method employing CL detection utilizing immobilized enzymes for simultaneous determination of acetylcholine and choline [187], Both compounds were separated on a reversed-phase column, passed through an immobilized enzyme column (acetylcholine esterase and choline oxidase), and converted to hydrogen peroxide, which was subsequently detected by the PO-CL reaction. In this period, other advances in this area were carried out such as the combination of solid-state PO CL detection and postcolumn chemical reaction systems in LC [188] or the development of a new low-dispersion system for narrow-bore LC [189],...

A variety of enzymes (such as acetylcholine esterase, Porcine pancreatic lipase, Pseudomonas cepacia lipase, and Candida antarcita lipase) have been found useful in the preparation of enantiomerically pure cyclopentenol (+)-2 from 1. The enantiomeric (—)-2 has been prepared from diol 4 by enzymatic acetylation catalyzed by VP-345 with isopropenyl acetate in an organic medium. The key intermediate cyclopentanones (+)-6, (—)-6, 7, and 8, which are useful in the preparation of many bioactive molecules, can be obtained from 3 and 5 via routine chemical transformations.7...

The work that paved the way toward enzymatic inhibition was published in the early 1990s by Wudl and coworkers (Schinazietal., 1993 Friedmanetal., 1993 Sijbesma et al., 1993) and since then studies regarding antiviral activity, mainly HIV-protease inhibition, have been carried out to find active compounds. Up to now, the most effective fullerene derivatives are the trans-2, -dimethy 1-bis-fulleropyrrolidin-ium salt (Fig. 1.4) (Marchesan et al., 2005) and the dendrofullerene reported by Hirsch (Schuster et al., 2000) both of them present an ECJ0 of 0.2pM. Also HIV reverse transcriptase can be inhibited by, -dimcthyl-bis-fulleropyrrolidinium salts (Mashino et al., 2005). The same compounds are also active against acetylcholine esterase (AChE), an enzyme that hydrolyzes a very important neurotransmitter.

The most outstanding example illustrating this strategy came from the team of Alain Friboulet and Daniel Thomas, who produced anti-idiotype antibodies against a monoclonal antibody AE2 that was a competitive inhibitor of acetylcholine esterase. One of the selected antibodies, 9A8, catalyzes the hydrolysis of acetylthio-choline with a pseudo first-order rate constant /feat = 81 and a factor of acceleration of 4.2 x 10 . These remarkable parameters, which are only two orders of magnitude lower when compared to those of the enzyme, make abzyme 9A8 the most powerful abzyme known until now. 

The mode of action of the isobutylamides is unknown, although Miyakado et al. found that several isobutylamides (i.e. pipercide and related compounds) caused repetitive discharge when the nerve cord of the cockroach, Periplaneta americana was stimulated. We found that fagaramide was inactive as an acetylcholine esterase inhibitor in an m vitro assay(unpublished dat a).

The alkaloids which influence acetylcholine esterase activity are eserine, galan-thamine, nicotine, lobeline and tubocurarine. All of these alkaloids are very active. 

Eserine blocks acetylcholine esterase. This alkaloid may be used to decrease possible negative side effects connected to the use of other drugs, for example that of atropine. 

Galanthamine also blocks acetylcholine esterase activity. One of the new applications of galanthamine is in a treatment of Alzheimer s disease. Moreover, this alkaloid can be used in decreasing negative side effects caused by applications of non-depolarizing alkaloids, for example those of tubocurarine.
