Background: Previously, Japanese Environmental Mutagen and Genome Society/Mammalian Mutagenicity Study Group/Toxicogenomics Study Group (JEMS/MMS toxicogenomic study group) proposed 12 genotoxic marker genes (Aen, Bax, Btg2, Ccnf, Ccng1, Cdkn1a, Gdf15, Lrp1, Mbd1, Phlda3, Plk2, and Tubb4b) to discriminate genotoxic hepatocarcinogens (GTHCs) from non-genotoxic hepatocarcinogens (NGTHCs) and non-genotoxic non-hepatocarcinogens (NGTNHCs) in mouse and rat liver using qPCR and RNA-Seq and confirmed in public rat toxicogenomics data, Open TG-GATEs, by principal component analysis (PCA). On the other hand, the U.S.

Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) has emerged as an important drug target for the treatment of neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease (AD). Recent experimental studies indicate that certain antidiabetic drugs can be repurposed as potent AChE inhibitors. Enzymatic kinetic assays suggest that the antidiabetic drug chlorpropamide (CPM) acts as a noncompetitive inhibitor, but the mechanism of action and the binding site(s) of interaction with AChE are not known.
