Suillin: A mixed-type acetylcholinesterase inhibitor from Suillus luteus which is used by Saraguros indigenous, southern Ecuador

Jose Miguel Andrade et al.

Summary: This study reports for the first time the anticholinesterase effect of Suillus luteus and its major metabolite, suillin. Suillin demonstrated a non-competitive mixed mechanism against AChE with moderate inhibitory activity. The kinetic parameters and moderate potency of suillin make it a promising chemopreventive agent for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's.

Chemical Composition, Enantiomeric Distribution and Anticholinesterase and Antioxidant Activity of the Essential Oil of Diplosthephium juniperinum

Melissa Salinas et al.

Summary: The aim of this study was to extract and identify the chemical compounds of Diplosthephium juniperinum essential oil (EO) from Ecuador and to assess its anticholinesterase and antioxidant properties. The EO was found to have a moderate inhibitory effect on AChE and BuChE enzymes, as well as a lower antioxidant potential. This is the first report on the chemical composition and biological activities of the EO from D. juniperinum.
