A method of treating or preventing Parkinson's disease in a subject in need thereof is disclosed. The method comprises administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of AChE-R, wherein the AChE-R is devoid of an N-terminal extension. An additional method of treating or preventing Parkinson's disease in a subject is disclosed. The method comprises administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of AChE-R, wherein the AChE-R comprises a modification for increasing bioavailability.

摘要:
The present invention describes the use of an AChE-R-derived peptide, also known as ARP, as an inducer of hemopoietic cell differentiation and expansion, specifically for the granulocytic population. In addition, the use of ARP as an inducer of thrombopoietin and pro-inflammatory cytokines is also presented. ARP may further be used in the pre-transplant priming of hematopoietic stem cells. Other uses and methods utilizing ARP are also described herein.
摘要:
The invention relates to antibodies recognizing acetylcholinesterase or a C-terminal peptide derived from acetyl-cholinesterase, useful in diagnosing central nervous system (CNS) stress, elevated glucocorticoid level, disruption of the blood-brain barrier or Alzheimer's disease. The invention also relates to methods for the diagnosis of central nervous system (CNS) stress, elevated glucocorticoid level or disruption of the blood-brain barrier in a mammal, by use of the antibodies of the invention.
摘要:
The present invention relates to novel alternative forms of human acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and nucleotide sequences encoding the same. The genes encoding the novel forms of human AChE have been identified in various malignant tumor cells. In a further aspect, the invention relates to a transgenic animal assay system for evaluating efficacy of drugs against cholinergic proteins, prior to or in the course of therapeutic treatment. Transgenic animals, preferably developing tadpole of Xenopus or mice which express human AChE, are used. The transgenic animal assay system is also useful for evaluating the toxicity of substances which potentially block human AChE (e.g. organophosphorous compounds).
摘要:
This invention is directed to genetically engineered proteins having human ChE activity, and more particularly, the activity of human AChE or human pseudo-ChE. The invention also provides for DNA sequences encoding such proteins, and more specifically DNA sequences comprising the entire coding region for encoding such complete proteins, and DNA expression vectors comprising such sequences. The invention also provides for DNA, which as been joined outside living cells, capable of infecting culturable cells, to be maintained therein and in progenies thereof which is adapted to encode such active proteins. The invention further provides culturable cells infected with recombinant DNA defined above, and to purified proteins having human ChE activity produced by such cells. There are further provided antibodies interacting with human AChE and pseudo-ChE and assays based on the use of such antibodies. The invention also provides compositions counteracting the effects of succinylcholine and of organophosphorus, containing as active ingredient an effective dosage of proteins defined above.

摘要:
The present invention provides agents which are capable of regulating the function of a micro-RNA component which can be used to regulate an AChE-associated biological pathway. In addition, the present invention provides methods and pharmaceutical compositions for the treatment of various pathologies related to AChE-associated biological pathways such as apoptosis, aberrant cholinergic signaling, abnormal hematopoietic proliferation and/or differentiation, cellular stress, exposure to inflammatory response-inducing agents, and/or exposure to organophosphates or other AChE inhibitors.
摘要:
The invention provides methods/kits for assessing levels of trait or state anxiety in a subject by comparing genotypes and/or expression patterns at the ACHE, PON1 and/or BChE genes to the genotype and/or expression pattern of the genes in a reference population whose genotype and/or expression pattern of the genes is known or by correlating AChE levels activity to those of PON.
