Published: January 2009

Fluorescence intensity of thioflavin T fluorogenic label increased significantly as a result of formation of enzyme-inhibitory complex with acetylcholinesterase of human blood erythrocytes. Thioflavin T is a reversible inhibitor, selectively reacting with acetylcholinesterase. Thioflavin T fluorescence intensity is proportional to acetylcholinesterase activity for the studied interval of enzyme activities. A rapid fluorescent method for measuring acetylcholinesterase activity is proposed.

The abnormal expression of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) is linked to the development of various diseases. Accurate determination of AChE activity as well as screening AChE inhibitors (AChEIs) holds paramount importance for early diagnosis and treatment of AChE-related diseases. Herein, a fluorescent and colorimetric dual-channel probe based on gold nanoclusters (AuNCs) and manganese dioxide nanosheets (MnO NSs) was developed.

Manganese dioxide nanosheets (MnO NSs) have garnered significant attention in analytical sensing, while the majority of the previous reports suffer from a complex preparation process involving reducing agents, template or high-temperature. In this work, a novel MnO NSs decorated TiCT MXene nanoribbons (TiCTNR@MnO) composite was firstly assemblied via a facile one-step strategy and applied as a bi-signal generator to enable colorimetric and fluorescence (FL) dual-response sensing. During the assembly process, TiCTNR innovatively acted as both reductant and carrier to prevent the aggregation of MnO NSs.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is primarily caused by oxidative stress, hyperphosphorylated τ-protein aggregation, and amyloid-β deposition. Changes in dopaminergic and serotoninergic neurotransmitter pathways are linked to certain symptoms of AD. Derivatives of bicyclic and tricyclic cyclohepta[b]thiophene were developed to identify new potential candidates as acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) inhibitors for the treatment of AD.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a prevalent neurological illness that affects over 80% of aged adults globally in cases of dementia. Although the exact pathophysiological causes of AD remain unclear, its pathogenesis is primarily driven by several distinct biochemical alterations: (i) the accumulation of toxic Aβ plaques, (ii) the hyperphosphorylation of tau proteins, (iii) oxidative stress resulting in cell death, and (iv) an imbalance between the two main neurotransmitters, glutamate and acetylcholine (ACh). Currently, there are very few medications available and no treatment.
