BuChE-specific radiolabeled iodobenzoates enter the brain and, in general, label areas known to exhibit BuChE activity in histochemical studies. Such molecules may represent a new direction for the development of agents for the molecular imaging of BuChE in the living brain, especially in regions where BuChE-containing neuropathological structures appear in AD.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
