Biosens Bioelectron. 2023 Dec 8;247:115912. doi: 10.1016/j.bios.2023.115912. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe monitoring of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity and the screening of its inhibitors are significance of the diagnosis and drug therapy of nervous diseases. A metal ions-mediated signal amplification strategy was developed for the highly sensitive and multicolor assay of AChE activity and visually screening its drug inhibitors. After the specific reaction between AChE and acetylthiocholine (ATCh), the hydrolysis product thiocholine (TCh) can directly and decompose the α-FeOOH nanorods (NRs) to release amounts o...

Comparative Bioavailability study of a Novel Multi-day Patch Formulation of Rivastigmine (twice weekly) with Exelon ® Transdermal Patch (daily). A randomized clinical trial
CONCLUSION: Bioequivalence was demonstrated between RID-TDS mg twice a week and Exelon® once a day in SS. Patch adhesion favored RID-TDS despite the longer dosing interval. Both products were well tolerated.TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: Protocols are registered in ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT03659435 and EudraCT: 2018-001570-18.PMID:36017827 | DOI:10.2174/1567205019666220823105059 (Source: Current Alzheimer Research)

Multisite transcranial direct current stimulation associated with cognitive training in episodic memory and executive functions in individuals with Alzheimer ’s disease: a case report
ConclusionsThe results from the two presented cases show that multisite transcranial stimulation associated with cognitive training is an effective adjuvant method for the treatment of patients diagnosed with mild Alzheimer ’s disease. Its effects can benefit patients’ daily routines by reducing cognitive deficits by keeping intact areas active and/or compensating for lost functions.Trial registration NCT02772185. Registered 13 May 2016,http://www.clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT02772185. Retrospectively registered. (Source: Journal of Medical Case Reports)

Probing the interaction of Rivastigmine Tartrate, an important Alzheimer's drug, with serum albumin: Attempting treatment of Alzheimer's disease.
Abstract The present study was aimed at investigating the binding between an important drug of Alzheimer's therapy, Rivastigmine tartrate (RT), with Bovine serum albumin (BSA). BSA is a model protein that is increasingly being used for studies related to drug-protein interaction owing to its structural similarity with human serum albumin (HSA) which is extremely abundant in the circulatory system comprising around 60% of the total plasma protein. Fluorescence spectroscopy implied that complex formation is taking place between BSA and RT; binding constant calculated was of the order of 104 M-1 implicative...
