Bioactivity of a peptide derived from acetylcholinesterase in hippocampal organotypic cultures.

While the molecular basis underlying the non-classical actions of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) is presently unknown, a candidate peptide sequence located at the C-terminus of AChE (AChE-peptide) has recently been identified. This study explored the bioactivity of synthetic AChE-peptide using in vitro...
