Lázenská, Helena ; Opletalová, Veronika (advisor) ; Kuča, Kamil (referee)
QUESTIONS OF THE IN VITRO INHIBITION OF CHOLINESTERASES BY SELECTED ORGANOPHOSPHORUS PESTICIDES Helena Lázenská Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry and Drug Control, Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Kralove, Charles University in Prague, Heyrovskeho 1203, 500 05, Hradec Kralove, Czech Republic. The aim of this study was to describe organophosphorus inhibitors paraoxone, DDVP and DFP from the aspect of the kinetics of their reaction with human erythrocyte acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and plasma butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE), to find IC50, and to test the in vitro potency of five selected oximes (pralidoxime, methoxime, trimedoxime, obidoxime and HI-6) to reactivate AChE and BuChE inhibited by three mentioned organophosphorus inhibitors. The inhibition of AChE and BuChE was performed by incubation with organophosphorus inhibitors at a convenient concentration and such time, that would result in about 90% activity of an enzyme. A solution of a reactivator at a final concentration 1 μM or 10 μM was added to an enzyme, after 10 min of reactivation, a solution of a substrate - acetylthiocholine-iodide or butyrylthiocholine-iodide was added, and the activity of an enzyme was measured by the spectrophotometric Ellman's method. The experiment was performed at 25 žC, pH 7,4 and in a 0,1 M phosphate buffer. According...
