These compounds can slow down the progression of these diseases and can also be used in the treatment of glaucoma and myasthenia gravis. The majority of the cholinesterase inhibitors used in the clinic are derived from natural products and our ...

    • Synthetic analogs of stryphnusin isolated from the marine sponge Stryphnus fortis inhibit acetylcholinesterase with no effect on muscle function or neuromuscular transmission 

      Moodie, Lindon; Zuzek, Monika; Frangez, Robert; Andersen, Jeanette hammer; Hansen, Espen; Olsen, Elisabeth Klungerbo; Cergolj, Marija; Sepcic, Kristina; Hanssen, Kine Østnes; Svenson, Johan (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-11-09)
