Pharmacological investigations of new galantamine peptide esters
Galantamine hydrobromide (GAL) is a reversible acetylcholinesterase inhibitor, with properties to increase the concentration of acetylcholine in several brain structures. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of new galantamine peptide esters: 3,4-dichlorophenyl-alanil-leucil-glycine-galantamine (GAL-LEU) and 3,4-dichlorophenyl-alanil-valil-glycine-galantamine (GAL-VAL), on locomotor...

متن کاملPharmacological aspects of galantamine for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease
Galantamine is a natural product belonging to the isoquinoline alkaloid family of compounds. It was first discovered and isolated in the 1950s from Galanthus nivalis (common snowdrop) and Galanthus woronowii (Caucasian snowdrop), members of the Amaryllidaceae family (Marco and do Carmo Carreiras, 2006).

متن کاملConfirmation and certainty in toxicology screening.
Confirmation of presumptive positive urine drug screens, necessary to minimize the reporting of false-positive results, can be costly and time-consuming. The predictive value model can be used to select the confirming tests and to calculate the confidence of the result. The predictive value of a test result is the probability, based on the sensitivity and specificity of the test, that the resul...
