Table 1. The inhibitory capacity of AChE/BuChE by 5a–5h, rivastigmine and donepezil.
Figure 2. (A) BuChE recovery capability after preincubation of compound 5a was diluted to 0.1 × IC50. (B) The recovery capability of BuChE inhibition by rivastigmine, donepezil, and 5a was diluted to 0.1 × IC50 by monitoring with time for 240 min. The results were indicated as the mean ± SEM.
