[Forms of deposition of phosphoorganic cholinesterase inhibitors in the brain]. 1975

E K Balashova, and D L Pevzner, and V I Rozengart, and O E Sherstobitov, and A A Abduvakhobov

The content and hydrophobic properties (distribution coefficient in hexan : water) of organophosphorus inhibitors OPT of the following structure--R-O (CH3)/P/O/S C2H4SC2H5 have been studied in rat brain. On enlargement of the O-alkyl radical from ethyl to isopropyl and pinacolin hydrophobecity increases from 1 to 12 and 39, while the relative content of the chloroform extractable free OPT in brain, under conditions of uniform distribution, decreases from 11--18% to 3.2%. On incubation of the homogenate at 37 degrees C the further inhibition of the specific cholinesterase of the brain indicates the presence of an absolutely free form of OPT, the amount of which is not dependent on the degree of its hydrophobicity.

D001921 Brain The part of CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM that is contained within the skull (CRANIUM). Arising from the NEURAL TUBE, the embryonic brain is comprised of three major parts including PROSENCEPHALON (the forebrain); MESENCEPHALON (the midbrain); and RHOMBENCEPHALON (the hindbrain). The developed brain consists of CEREBRUM; CEREBELLUM; and other structures in the BRAIN STEM. Encephalon
D002621 Chemistry A basic science concerned with the composition, structure, and properties of matter; and the reactions that occur between substances and the associated energy exchange.
D002800 Cholinesterase Inhibitors Drugs that inhibit cholinesterases. The neurotransmitter ACETYLCHOLINE is rapidly hydrolyzed, and thereby inactivated, by cholinesterases. When cholinesterases are inhibited, the action of endogenously released acetylcholine at cholinergic synapses is potentiated. Cholinesterase inhibitors are widely used clinically for their potentiation of cholinergic inputs to the gastrointestinal tract and urinary bladder, the eye, and skeletal muscles; they are also used for their effects on the heart and the central nervous system.
