Cholinesterase (ChE)
Cholinesterase (ChE) is a family of enzymes present in the central nervous system, particularly in nervous tissue, muscle and red cells, which catalyze the hydrolysis of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine into choline and acetic acid, a reaction necessary to allow a cholinergic neuron to return to its resting state after activation. It is one of many important enzymes needed for the proper functioning of the nervous systems of humans.
There are two types: acetylcholinesterase (AChE, acetylcholine hydrolase) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE, acylcholine acylhydrolase), also known as nonspecific cholinesterase or pseudocholinesterase. AChE is primarily found in the blood on red blood cell membranes, in neuromuscular junctions, and in neural synapses, while BChE is produced in the liver and found primarily in plasma. The difference between the two types of cholinesterase is their relative preferences for substrates: AChE hydrolyzes acetylcholine faster while BChE hydrolyzes butyrylcholine faster.

Dyclonine
0 ImagesDyclonine (Dyclocaine) is an orally active, blood-brain barrier-permeable piperidine phenylacetone small molecule commonly used as a local anesthetic. Dyclonine acts as a highly selective allosteric antagonist of TRPV3; it also reversibly inhibits G9a, ALDH2 and ALDH3A1, non-competitively blocks AChE. Dyclonine activates the Nrf2/ARE pathway, relieves the epigenetic silencing of FXN, blocks Aβ42 aggregation, and promotes remyelination and reparative polarization of microglia. Dyclonine alleviates pruritus via TRPV3 inhibition; it is used in studies of neurodegenerative disease models based on its AChE inhibitory, antioxidant and remyelinating effects; it sensitizes drug-resistant tumors through ALDH inhibition, and combined use with protease inhibitors induces more tumor cell apoptosis; it inhibits Candida albicans in vitro. Dyclonine can be used for research on multiple diseases including neurodegenerative diseases, cancer and pruritic dermatitis.
