| Targets |
AChE-IN-65 targets acetylcholinesterase (AChE), the enzyme responsible for hydrolyzing the neurotransmitter acetylcholine in the synaptic cleft. As a mixed inhibitor, it binds to both the free enzyme and the enzyme-substrate complex, reducing the rate of acetylcholine breakdown and thereby increasing acetylcholine availability at cholinergic synapses. This mechanism is relevant to Alzheimer's disease and other neurodegenerative disorders characterized by cholinergic deficit.

|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In vitro, AChE-IN-65 acts as a mixed inhibitor of Electrophorus electricus AChE, with a Ki value of 556.4 microM. This indicates relatively weak inhibitory potency compared to other AChE inhibitors. No cellular activity data (e.g., IC50 on cell lines) or detailed enzyme kinetic parameters (Vmax, Km) are reported in the search results beyond the Ki value. The compound is a tool for studying mixed inhibition mechanisms in cholinesterase research.
|
| ln Vivo |
No in vivo activity data for AChE-IN-65 are reported in the search results. As a weak AChE inhibitor (Ki = 556.4 microM), it would likely require high doses to achieve significant AChE inhibition in animal models. It could potentially be evaluated in rodent models of Alzheimer's disease (e.g., scopolamine-induced amnesia models) or other cholinergic disorders, but no such data are currently available.

| Enzyme Assay |
The binding affinity of AChE-IN-65 to acetylcholinesterase is measured using Ellman‘s colorimetric assay. Electrophorus electricus AChE is incubated with the compound at graded concentrations (1 microM-10 mM) in phosphate buffer (pH 8.0) for 10 min. Acetylthiocholine iodide (substrate) and DTNB (Ellman's reagent) are then added, and absorbance at 412 nm is measured spectrophotometrically. The inhibition constant (Ki) of 556.4 microM is calculated from Lineweaver-Burk plots or Dixon plots by varying both inhibitor and substrate concentrations. The mixed inhibition pattern is confirmed by observing changes in both Km and Vmax.
|
| Cell Assay |
No cellular experiments for AChE-IN-65 are described in the search results. In a typical AChE inhibitor cellular assay, neuronal cell lines (e.g., SH-SY5Y, IMR-32, PC12) would be seeded in 96-well plates and treated with AChE-IN-65 at graded concentrations (1-1000 microM) for 24-72 h. Intracellular AChE activity would be measured using a commercial fluorescence-based kit, and cell viability would be assessed by MTT assay to evaluate cytotoxicity. However, no such data are reported for this compound.
|
| Animal Protocol |
No animal experiments for AChE-IN-65 are described in the search results. For in vivo evaluation, male Sprague-Dawley rats or C57BL/6 mice would be administered AChE-IN-65 intraperitoneally or orally at doses of 10-200 mg/kg. After 30-120 min, animals would be sacrificed, and brain (cortex, hippocampus) and blood samples would be collected. AChE activity in brain homogenates and erythrocytes would be measured using Ellman's method. Cognitive effects could be assessed using the Morris water maze or passive avoidance test in scopolamine-induced amnesia models.

| Additional Infomation |
AChE-IN-65 (Compound DABA_1) is a research-grade mixed inhibitor of acetylcholinesterase with weak potency (Ki = 556.4 microM). It is not a drug and has not entered clinical trials or received regulatory approval for any indication. The compound serves as a chemical tool for studying cholinesterase inhibition mechanisms, particularly mixed-type inhibition, and for exploring the structure-activity relationships of AChE inhibitors. It may be used in biochemical assays as a reference compound for screening more potent AChE inhibitors.
