We used mouse recombinant wild-type acetylcholinesterase (AChE; EC 3.1.1.7), butyrylcholinesterase (BChE; EC 3.1.1.8), and AChE mutants with mutations (Y337A, F295L, F297I, Y72N, Y124Q, and W286A) that resemble residues found at structurally equivalent positions in BChE, to find the basis for divergence between AChE and BChE in following reactions: reversible inhibition by two oximes, progressive inhibition by the organophosphorus compound DDVP, and oxime-assisted reactivation of the phosphorylated enzymes. The inhibition enzyme-oxime dissociation constants of AChE w.t. were 150 and 46 microM, of BChE 340 and 27 microM for 2-PAM and HI-6, respectively. Introduced mutations lowered oxime binding affinities for both oximes. DDVP progressively inhibited cholinesterases yielding symmetrical dimethylphosphorylated enzyme conjugates at rates between 104 and 105/min/M. A high extent of oxime-assisted reactivation of all conjugates was achieved, but rates by both oximes were up to 10 times slower for phosphorylated mutants than for AChE w.t. 相似文献

We have described recently an acetylcholinesterase (AChE) knockout mouse. While comparing the tissue distribution of AChE and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE), we found that extraction buffers containing Triton X-100 strongly inhibited mouse BChE activity. In contrast, buffers with Tween 20 caused no inhibition of BChE. Conventional techniques grossly underestimated BChE activity by up to 15-fold. In Tween 20 buffer, the intestine, serum, lung, liver, and heart had higher BChE than AChE activity. Only brain had higher AChE than BChE activity in AChE +/+ mice. These findings contradict the dogma, based mainly on observations in Triton X-100 extracts, that BChE is a minor cholinesterase in animal tissues. AChE +/- mice had 50% of normal AChE activity and AChE -/- mice had none, but all mice had similar levels of BChE activity. BChE was inhibited by Triton X-100 in all species tested, except rat and chicken. Inhibition was reversible and competitive with substrate binding. The active site of rat BChE was unique, having an arginine in place of leucine at position 286 (human BChE numbering) in the acyl-binding pocket of the active site, thus explaining the lack of inhibition of rat BChE by Triton X-100. The generally high levels of BChE activity in tissues, including the motor endplate, and the observation that mice live without AChE, suggest that BChE has an essential function in nullizygous mice and probably in wild-type mice as well. 相似文献

Brain and plasma acetylcholinesterase (AChE; EC 3.1.1.7) and plasma butyrylcholinesterase (BChE; EC 3.1.1.8) specific activities were assayed in 16 freshwater teleosts belonging to four families: Cyprinidae, Percidae, Esocidae and Lotidae. Brain AChE activity varied among fish species approximately 15-fold, ranging from 138 to 2011 micromol/g per h. All cyprinids had higher brain AChE activity than other fish families. Plasma AChE activity was on average 100-fold lower than that in brain, varying from 1.2 to 18.6 micromol/ml per h. Plasma BChE activity was found only in cyprinids with the exception of the common and crucian carp, and sabrefish. It varied from 26 to 1083 micromol/ml per h. In bream (Abramis brama) only 30% of specimens studied had BChE activity. The correlation coefficient values between activities of brain and plasma AChE, brain AChE and plasma BChE, plasma AChE and BChE were 0.67, 0.68 and 0.84, respectively. Cross-species and also cross-family differences in AChE and BChE activities among fish were demonstrated. Possible reasons for the differences are discussed. 相似文献

Summary The phylo- and ontogenetically related enzymes butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) are expressed consecutively at the onset of avian neuronal differentiation. In order to investigate their possible co-regulation, we have studied the effect of highly selective inhibitors on each of the cholinesterases with respect to their expression in rotary cultures of the retina (retinospheroids) and stationary cultures of the embryonic chick tectum. Adding the irreversible BChE inhibitor iso-OMPA to reaggregating retinal cells has only slight morphological effects and fully inhibits BChE expression. Unexpectedly, iso-OMPA also suppresses the expression of AChE to 35%–60% of its control activity. Histochemically, this inhibition is most pronounced in fibrous regions. The release of AChE into the media of both types of cultures is inhibited by iso-OMPA by more than 85%. Control experiments show that AChE suppression by the BChE inhibitor is only partially explainable by direct cross-inhibition of iso-OMPA on AChE. In contrast, the treatment of retinospheroids with the reversible AChE inhibitor BW284C51 first accelerates the expression of AChE and then leads to a rapid decay of the spheroids. After injection of BW284C51 into living embryos, we find that AChE is expressed prematurely in cells that normally express BChE. We conclude that the cellular expression of AChE is regulated by the amount of both active BChE and active AChE within neuronal tissues. Thus, direct interaction with classical cholinergic systems is indicated for the seemingly redundant BChE. 相似文献

Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) are thought to be the result of a gene duplication event early in vertebrate evolution. To learn more about the evolution of these enzymes, we expressed in vitro, characterized, and modeled a recombinant cholinesterase (ChE) from a teleost, the medaka Oryzias latipes. In addition to AChE, O. latipes has a ChE that is different from either vertebrate AChE or BChE, which we are classifying as an atypical BChE, and which may resemble a transitional form between the two. Of the fourteen aromatic amino acids in the catalytic gorge of vertebrate AChE, ten are conserved in the atypical BChE of O. latipes; by contrast, only eight are conserved in vertebrate BChE. Notably, the atypical BChE has one phenylalanine in its acyl pocket, while AChE has two and BChE none. These substitutions could account for the intermediate nature of this atypical BChE. Molecular modeling supports this proposal. The atypical BChE hydrolyzes acetylthiocholine (ATCh) and propionylthiocholine (PTCh) preferentially but butyrylthiocholine (BTCh) to a considerable extent, which is different from the substrate specificity of AChE or BChE. The enzyme shows substrate inhibition with the two smaller substrates but not with the larger substrate BTCh. In comparison, AChE exhibits substrate inhibition, while BChE does not, but may instead show substrate activation. The atypical BChE from O. latipes also shows a mixed pattern of inhibition. It is effectively inhibited by physostigmine, typical of all ChEs. However, although the atypical BChE is efficiently inhibited by the BChE-specific inhibitor ethopropazine, it is not by another BChE inhibitor, iso-OMPA, nor by the AChE-specific inhibitor BW284c51. The atypical BChE is found as a glycophosphatidylinositol-anchored (GPI-anchored) amphiphilic dimer (G(2) (a)), which is unusual for any BChE. We classify the enzyme as an atypical BChE and discuss its implications for the evolution of AChE and BChE and for ecotoxicology. 相似文献

Cholinesterases (ChEs) are classified as either acetylcholinesterase (AChE) or butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) based on their substrate and inhibitor specificity. Organophosphate and carbamate compounds commonly represented by herbicides, pesticides, and nerve gases irreversibly inhibit ChEs. Therefore, exposure to organophosphates and carbamates is normally assessed by measuring ChE activity in blood. There are two approaches for measuring AChE and BChE activity present in whole blood: (1) separating blood into erythrocytes, which contain only AChE, and plasma which contains only BChE, to measure their activity individually, or (2) use a BChE-specific inhibitor to measure the activity of AChE in whole blood. A number of studies have reported the use of different inhibitors for the simultaneous measurement of AChE and BChE activities. However, the inhibitors used for completely inhibiting BChE activity also inhibited AChE activity leading to errors in reported values. The goal of this study was to find the most accurate and simple method for the simultaneous determination of AChE and BChE activity in animal whole blood. Solutions containing human AChE and BChE in various proportions were prepared and AChE and BChE activities were measured using three reported methods. Results demonstrate that ethopropazine and (-) huperzine A appear to be the most specific ChE inhibitors. Preliminary results with human and animal whole blood suggest that 20muM ethopropazine and 500nM (-) huperzine A can be used for measuring AChE and BChE activities across species. 相似文献

Bambuterol is a chiral carbamate and a selective inhibitor of butyrylcholinesterase (BChE, EC 3.1.1.8). In order to relate bambuterol selectivity and stereoselectivity of BChE and acetylcholinesterase (AChE, EC 3.1.1.7) of different species, we studied the inhibition of human, mouse, and horse BChE, as well as AChE of human and mouse by (R)- and (S)-bambuterol. AChE and BChE of all studied species were progressively inhibited by both bambuterol enantiomers, with a preference for the (R)-bambuterol whose inhibition rate constants were about five times higher than that of (S)-bambuterol. We observed no significant difference between human and mouse in bambuterol enantiomer BChE inhibition. However, (R)-bambuterol inhibited horse BChE about 14 times slower than human and mouse BChE, and the inhibition rate for (S)-bambuterol was about 18 times slower. Although the primary structure of horse BChE differs from the other two species in 15 amino acids, we presumed that differences in inhibition rates could be attributed to threonine at position 69 located close to the peripheral site of BChE. Since BChE inhibition by bambuterol enantiomers was at least 8000 times faster than that of AChE, both bambuterol enantiomers proved to be selective BChE inhibitors, as was previously shown for racemate. 相似文献

A comparative study is carried out on dependence of degree of activity inhibition of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) of a freshwater bony fish, the roach Rutilus rutilus L., on concentration of organophosphates: O,O-dimethyl-O-(2,2-dichlorovynyl)phosphate (DDVP) and tetraisopropylamidopyrophosphate (iso-OMPA). It has been shown that both in roach and in horse the both inhibitors are selective for BChE in comparison with AChE. Their selectivity degree was 2000-fold and 80-fold, respectively. The ranges of effective DDVP concentrations are overlapped for horse AChE and BChE, while they do not for the roach enzymes. A similar regularity is revealed at action of iso-OMPA. It is established that DDVP has a higher inhibitory potency and selectivity in relation to roach BChE, than iso-OMPA. It is suggested to use DDVP as a new selective inhibitor for separate evaluation of AChE and BChE activities in fish tissues. 相似文献

At the mouse neuromuscular junction (NMJ), there are two distinct cholinesterases (ChE): acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE). Until now, it has been difficult to determine the precise localization of BChE at the NMJ. In this study, we use a modification of Koelle''s method to stain AChE and BChE activity. This method does not interfere with fluorescent co-staining, which allows precise co-localization of ChE and other synaptic molecules at the NMJ. We demonstrate that AChE and BChE exhibit different localization patterns at the mouse NMJ. AChE activity is present both in the primary cleft and in the secondary folds, whereas BChE activity appears to be almost absent in the primary cleft and to be concentrated in subsynaptic folds. The same localization for BChE is observed in the AChE-knockout (KO) mouse NMJ. Collagenase treatment removed AChE from the primary cleft, but not from secondary folds in the wild-type mouse, whereas in the AChE-KO mouse, BChE remains in the secondary folds. After peripheral nerve injury and regeneration, BChE localization is not modified in either normal or KO mice. In conclusion, specific localization of BChE in the secondary folds of the NMJ suggests that this enzyme is not a strict surrogate of AChE and that the two enzymes have two different roles.

Butyrylcholinesterase and the control of synaptic responses in acetylcholinesterase knockout mice 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
At the neuromuscular junction (NMJ) acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) can hydrolyze acetylcholine (ACh). Released ACh quanta are known to diffuse rapidly across the narrow synaptic cleft and pairs of ACh molecules cooperate to open endplate channels. During their diffusion through the cleft, or after being released from muscle nicotinic ACh receptors (nAChRs), most ACh molecules are hydrolyzed by AChE highly concentrated at the NMJ. Advances in mouse genomics offered new approaches to assess the role of specific cholinesterases involved in synaptic transmission. AChE knockout mice (AChE-KO) provide a valuable tool for examining the complete abolition of AChE activity and the role of BChE. AChE-KO mice live to adulthood, and exhibit an increased sensitivity to BChE inhibitors, suggesting that BChE activity facilitated their survival and compensated for AChE function. Our results show that BChE is present at the endplate region of wild-type and AChE-KO mature muscles. The decay time constant of focally recorded miniature endplate currents was 1.04 +/- 0.06 ms in wild-type junctions and 5.4 ms +/- 0.3 ms in AChE-KO junctions, and remained unaffected by BChE-specific inhibitors, indicating that BChE is not limiting ACh duration on endplate nAChRs. Inhibition of BChE decreased evoked quantal ACh release in AChE-KO NMJs. This reduction in ACh release can explain the greatest sensitivity of AChE-KO mice to BChE inhibitors. BChE is known to be localized in perisynaptic Schwann cells, and our results strongly suggest that BChE's role at the NMJ is to protect nerve terminals from an excess of ACh. 相似文献

E2020 (R,S)-1-benzyl-4-[(5,6-dimethoxy-1-indanon)-2-yl]methyl)piperidine hydrochloride is a piperidine-based acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitor that was approved for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease in the United States. Structure-activity studies of this class of inhibitors have indicated that both the benzoyl containing functionality and the N-benzylpiperidine moiety are the key features for binding and inhibition of AChE. In the present study, the interaction of E2020 with cholinesterases (ChEs) with known sequence differences, was examined in more detail by measuring the inhibition constants with Torpedo AChE, fetal bovine serum AChE, human butyrylcholinesterase (BChE), and equine BChE. The basis for particular residues conferring selectivity was then confirmed by using site-specific mutants of the implicated residue in two template enzymes. Differences in the reactivity of E2020 toward AChE and BChE (200- to 400-fold) show that residues at the peripheral anionic site such as Asp74(72), Tyr72(70), Tyr124(121), and Trp286(279) in mammalian AChE may be important in the binding of E2020 to AChE. Site-directed mutagenesis studies using mouse AChE showed that these residues contribute to the stabilization energy for the AChE-E2020 complex. However, replacement of Ala277(Trp279) with Trp in human BChE does not affect the binding of E2020 to BChE. Molecular modeling studies suggest that E2020 interacts with the active-site and the peripheral anionic site in AChE, but in the case of BChE, as the gorge is larger, E2020 cannot simultaneously interact at both sites. The observation that the KI value for mutant AChE in which Ala replaced Trp286 is similar to that for wild-type BChE, further confirms our hypothesis. 相似文献

The measurement of cholinesterase activities in either plasma or cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) may ultimately prove to be relevant in the diagnosis of neurological and neuropsychiatric disorders. However, studies to date have examined only total enzyme activities. Therefore in the present study we have examined the distribution of the individual molecular forms of both acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) in plasma and CSF using sucrose density gradient centrifugation. Although the total activities of AChE were of the same order of magnitude in plasma and CSF, there was a considerable difference (120-500-fold) between total BChE activity in the CSF and the BChE-rich plasma. The analysis of the individual molecular forms revealed that the predominant molecular species of AChE and BChE in the CSF--both lumbar and ventricular--was the G4 form. The G4 form also constituted the majority of the plasma BChE activity and, on average, over half (56%) of the plasma AChE activity. The significance of the AChE and BChE molecular form compositions of both plasma and CSF and their possible relationship to pathological states are discussed. 相似文献

This study sought to investigate and compare the interaction of caffeic acid and chlorogenic acid on acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE), and some pro-oxidants (FeSO4, sodium nitroprusside and quinolinic acid) induced oxidative stress in rat brain in vitro. The result revealed that caffeic acid and chlorogenic acid inhibited AChE and BChE activities in dose-dependent manner; however, caffeic acid had a higher inhibitory effect on AChE and BChE activities than chlorogenic acid. Combination of the phenolic acids inhibited AChE and BChE activities antagonistically. Furthermore, pro-oxidants such as, FeSO4, sodium nitroprusside and quinolinic acid caused increase in the malondialdehyde (MDA) contents of the brain which was significantly decreased dose-dependently by the phenolic acids. Inhibition of AChE and BChE activities slows down acetylcholine and butyrylcholine breakdown in the brain. Therefore, one possible mechanism through which the phenolic acids exert their neuroprotective properties is by inhibiting AChE and BChE activities as well as preventing oxidative stress-induced neurodegeneration. However, esterification of caffeic acid with quinic acid producing chlorogenic acid affects these neuroprotective properties. 相似文献

Kinetic parameters were evaluated for inhibition of native and reactivation of tabun-inhibited human erythrocyte acetylcholinesterase (AChE, EC 3.1.1.7) and human plasma butyrylcholinesterase (BChE, EC 3.1.1.8) by three bispyridinium para-aldoximes with butane (K074), but-2-ene (K075) or xylene-like linker (K114). Tested aldoximes reversibly inhibited both cholinesterases with the preference for binding to the native AChE. Both cholinesterases showed the highest affinity for K114 (K(i) was 0.01mM for AChE and 0.06mM for BChE). The reactivation of tabun-inhibited AChE was efficient by K074 and K075. Their overall reactivation rate constants were around 2000min(-1)M(-1), which is seven times higher than for the classical bispyridinium para-aldoxime TMB-4. The reactivation of tabun-inhibited AChE assisted by K114 was slow and reached 90% after 20h. Since the aldoxime binding affinity of tabun-inhibited AChE was similar for all tested aldoximes (and corresponded to their K(i)), the rate of the nucleophilic displacement of the phosphoryl-moiety from the active site serine was the limiting factor for AChE reactivation. On the other hand, none of the aldoximes displayed a significant reactivation of tabun-inhibited BChE. Even after 20h, the reactivation maximum was 60% for 1mM K074 and K075, and only 20% for 1mM K114. However, lower BChE affinities for K074 and K075 compared to AChE suggest that the fast tabun-inhibited AChE reactivation by these compounds would not be obstructed by their interactions with BChE in vivo. 相似文献

Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) activities were measured in 13 sequential 2 ml aliquots of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) obtained by lumbar puncture from 7 young and 7 elderly healthy normal subjects. The slopes of the rostrocaudal gradients of AChE and BChE were calculated and compared to those of total protein concentration and the major dopaminergic metabolite homovanillic acid (HVA), for which a pronounced rostrocaudal gradient (with highest concentrations of HVA in more rostral CSF) is consistent with HVA originating primarily from the brain. AChE activity was higher in more caudal fractions of young, but not elderly subjects and there was a significant difference between the mean AChE gradient slopes in the young and old groups. These results suggest that the spinal cord makes an important contribution to AChE activity in lumbar CSF. Furthermore, the absence of a negative AChE gradient in elderly subjects may be the result of a greater rate of entry of cerebral AChE into CSF, possibly as a consequence of an increased ventricular surface area and shorter diffusion distances in atrophic elderly brains. In contrast to AChE, BChE activity and total protein concentrations were higher in more caudal CSF fractions of not only young but also old subjects. In addition, there was a significant correlation between the gradient slopes of BChE activity and total protein concentrations, suggesting that the majority of BChE activity in lumbar CSF derives from the same source as the majority of total protein, namely plasma. The diffuse (i.e. brain and spinal cord) origin of AChE in lumbar CSF would explain the relatively modest changes in lumbar CSF AChE activity in diseases involving certain central cholinergic systems, most notably Alzheimer's disease. 相似文献

Indanone derivatives containing meta/para-substituted aminopropoxy benzyl/benzylidene moieties were designed based on the structures of donepezil and ebselen analogs as the cholinesterase inhibitors. The designed compounds were synthesized and their acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) inhibitory activities were measured. Inhibitory potencies (IC50 values) for the synthesized compounds ranged from 0.12 to 11.92 μM and 0.04 to 24.36 μM against AChE and BChE, respectively. Compound 5 c showed the highest AChE inhibitory potency with IC50 value of 0.12 μM, whereas the highest BChE inhibition was achieved by structure 7 b (IC50=0.04 μM). Structure-activity relationship (SAR) analysis revealed that there is no significant difference between meta and para-substituted derivatives in AChE and BChE inhibition. However, the most potent AChE inhibitor 5 c belongs to meta-substituted compounds, while the most active BChE inhibitor is para-substituted derivative 7 b . The order of enzyme inhibition potency based on the substituted amine group is dimethyl amine>piperidine>morpholine. Compounds containing C=C linkage are more potent AChE inhibitors than the corresponding saturated structures. Molecular docking studies indicated that 5 c interacts with AChE in a very similar way to that observed experimentally for donepezil. The introduced indanone-aminopropoxy benzylidenes could be used in drug-discovery against Alzheimer's disease. 相似文献

Histochemical investigations of acetyl- and butyrilcholinesterase (AChE and BChE) activity in the cortical plate and in some subcortical areas of the human brain have demonstrated that on the 8th week of the prenatal development of the greatest AChE and BChE activity is observed in the dorsal thalamus, epithalamus and in the ependymal layer of various cerebral parts, the forebrain including. The data obtained, prove previous observations, concerning predominant localization of AChE in the intermediate layer of the isocortex (10 weeks). In a 10-week-old human fetus a total high level of AChE and BChE activity is demonstrated in various nuclei of the thalamus and in subcortical structures of the forebrain (nucl. caudatus, Meynert nucl.). 相似文献

Histochemical study on the distributive patterns of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE), amongst the constituents of the medulla oblongata of golden hamster (Mesocricetus auratus), viewed through the angle of the possible topographical and functional linkage of the two enzymes, have provided identical set-ups of AChE and BChE in many of the nuclei, fibers and tracts. In the case of AChE in many instances the results further point out that there is a balance of the enzymatic activity between the nuclei and the associated processes. On the other hand, in relation to BChE activity, the nuclei and their processes do not seem to be linked through such a histochemical factor. A detailed discussion on the significance of AChE relationship between the neurons and their processes from the functional point of view, against the data available in the literature, has been incorporated in the present study. Histoenzymologically, the ranges of the activities of AChE and BChE amongst the neurons and their processes are so closely related that such components are mirror images of each other in histochemical patterns. Naturally, such results have led to a detailed discussion in the contribution culminating in a proposition that AChE and BChE (amongst the locales studied) seems to be intimately linked in the neuro-physiological functioning undergoing in the regions of the medulla oblongata of golden hamster. 相似文献

In order to identify amino acids involved in the interaction of acetylcholinesterase (AChE; EC 3.1.1.7) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE; EC 3.1.1.8) with carbamates, the time course of inhibition of the recombinant mouse enzymes BChE wild-type (w.t.), AChE w.t. and of 11 site-directed AChE mutants by Ro 02-0683 and bambuterol was studied. In addition, the reversible inhibition of cholinesterases by terbutaline, the leaving group of bambuterol, was studied. The bimolecular rate constant of AChE w.t. inhibition was 6.8 times smaller by Ro 02-0683 and 16000 times smaller by bambuterol than that of BChE w.t. The two carbamates were equipotent BChE inhibitors. Replacement of tyrosine-337 in AChE with alanine (resembling the choline binding site of BChE) resulted in 630 times faster inhibition by bambuterol. The same replacement decreased the inhibition by Ro 02-0683 ten times. The difference in size of the choline binding site in the two w.t. enzymes appeared critical for the selectivity of bambuterol and terbutaline binding. Removal of the charge with the mutation D74N caused a reduction in the reaction rate constants for Ro 02-0683 and bambuterol. Substitution of tyrosine-124 with glutamine in the AChE peripheral site significantly increased the inhibition rate for both carbamates. Substitution of phenylalanine-297 with alanine in the AChE acyl pocket decreased the inhibition rate by Ro 02-0683. Computational docking of carbamates provided plausible orientations of the inhibitors inside the active site gorge of mouse AChE and human BChE, thus substantiating involvement of amino acid residues in the enzyme active sites critical for the carbamate binding as derived from kinetic studies. 相似文献

Abstract The series of symmetrical and unsymmetrical isoquinolinium-5-carbaldoximes was designed and prepared for cholinesterase reactivation purposes. The novel compounds were evaluated for intrinsic acetylcholinesterase (AChE) or butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) inhibition, when the majority of novel compounds resulted with high inhibition of both enzymes and only weak inhibitors were selected for reactivation experiments on human AChE or BChE inhibited by sarin, VX, or paraoxon. The AChE reactivation for all used organophosphates was found negligible if compared to the reactivation ability of obidoxime. Importantly, two compounds were found to reactivate BChE inhibited by sarin or VX better to obidoxime at human attainable concentration. One compound resulted as better reactivator of NEMP (VX surrogate)-inhibited BChE than obidoxime. The in vitro results were further rationalized by molecular docking studies showing future directions on designing potent BChE reactivators. 相似文献
