Autori: Ana-Marija Lulić, Lucija Marcelić, Alma Ramić, Andreja Radman Kastelic, Antonio Zandona, Nikola Maraković, Ines Primožič, Maja Katalinić Sažetak radaIn this study, we investigated the inhibitory activity of novel dodecylaminoquinuclidines (QAs) on neurotransmitter-hydrolyzing enzymes, specifically acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE). Following our previous findings, we modified the structure of a lead compound to develop more potent …

Autori: Antonio Zandona, Matea Jurić, Ludovic Jean, Pierre-Yves Renard, Maja Katalinić Sažetak radaTetrahydroisoquinoline (THIQ) oximes have been investigated as antidotes for poisoning by toxic organophosphorus compounds. Recent studies have shown that some THIQ oximes induce cytotoxic effects and trigger apoptosis in various cell types. Since this pathway activation is desirable for anticancer drugs, we further explored the …
