[Effect of guanidine dderivatives on choline acetylase and acetylcholinesterase of the rabbit brain]. 1977

M Matsumoto, and M Fujiwara, and A Mori, and Y Robin

The effects of 14 guanidino compounds on the activity of rabbit brain choline acetyltransferase (CAT) and acetylcholine esterase (ACE) have been studied, comparatively with that of pentylentetrazol. No guanidino compound examined nor pentylentetrazol had an effect on CAT activity. 4 of them showed a moderate inhibitory effect on ACE, of the same order of magnitude as that of pentylentetrazol, but significantly lower than that of the specific inhibitors eserine and mytelase.

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

D006146 Guanidines A family of iminourea derivatives. The parent compound has been isolated from mushrooms, corn germ, rice hulls, mussels, earthworms, and turnip juice. Derivatives may have antiviral and antifungal properties.
D000110 Acetylcholinesterase An enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of ACETYLCHOLINE to CHOLINE and acetate. In the CNS, this enzyme plays a role in the function of peripheral neuromuscular junctions. EC 3.1.1.7. Acetylcholine Hydrolase,Acetylthiocholinesterase,Hydrolase, Acetylcholine
D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
