THE ROLE OF CHOLINESTERASES IN ALZHEIMER’S DISEASE: SCREENING OF TARGET COMPOUNDS
Bacalhau, P.; San Juan, A.; Marques, C.; Peixoto, D.; Burke, A.; Caldeira, A. T.; Martins, M. R.Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia and causes a progressive and irreversible neurodegeneration. The loss of cholinergic neurons leads to the progressive reduction of acetylcholine (ACh) in the brain and resulting cognitive impairment in AD. ACh is hydrolyzed by both acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butirylcholinesterase (BuChE). It was found that in the course of the disease...
