In Silico Design of Dual-Binding Site Anti-Cholinesterase Phytochemical Heterodimers as Treatment Options for Alzheimer’s Disease (2021)
Journal Article
Amat-Ur-rasool, H., Ahmed, M., Hasnain, S., Ahmed, A., & Carter, W. G. (2022). In Silico Design of Dual-Binding Site Anti-Cholinesterase Phytochemical Heterodimers as Treatment Options for Alzheimer’s Disease. Current Issues in Molecular Biology, 44(1), 152-175. https://doi.org/10.3390/cimb44010012

The number of patients with neurodegenerative diseases, particularly Alzheimer’s disease (AD), continues to grow yearly. Cholinesterase inhibitors (ChEIs) represent the first-line symptomatic drug treatment for mild-to-moderate AD; however, there is...

The Neuroprotective Effects of Cannabis-Derived Phytocannabinoids and Resveratrol in Parkinson’s Disease: A Systematic Literature Review of Pre-Clinical Studies (2021)
Journal Article
Prakash, S., & Carter, W. G. (2021). The Neuroprotective Effects of Cannabis-Derived Phytocannabinoids and Resveratrol in Parkinson’s Disease: A Systematic Literature Review of Pre-Clinical Studies. Brain Sciences, 11(12), Article 1573. https://doi.org/10.3390/BRAINSCI11121573

Currently, there are no pharmacological treatments able to reverse nigral degeneration in Parkinson’s disease (PD), hence the unmet need for the provision of neuroprotective agents. Cannabis-derived phytocannabinoids (CDCs) and resveratrol (RSV) may...

Albumin binding as a potential biomarker of exposure to moderately low levels of organophosphorus pesticides (2008)
Journal Article
Tarhoni, M. H., Lister, T., Ray, D. E., & Carter, W. G. (2008). Albumin binding as a potential biomarker of exposure to moderately low levels of organophosphorus pesticides. Biomarkers, 13(4), https://doi.org/10.1080/13547500801973563

We have evaluated the potential of plasma albumin to provide a sensitive biomarker of exposure to commonly used organophosphorus pesticides in order to complement the widely used measure of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibition. Rat or human plasma... Read More about Albumin binding as a potential biomarker of exposure to moderately low levels of organophosphorus pesticides.
