Design, Synthesis, In Silico and In Vitro Analysis of Newly Synthesized 2-Mercaptobenzazole Derivatives as Potential Acetylcholinesterase Inhibitors.
The consistency between molecular docking, enzyme inhibition, and kinetic findings suggests that substituent-driven interactions play an important role in AChE inhibition, and their potential as lead scaffolds for the development of novel multitarget therapeutic candidates for Alzheimer's disease is supported.
