Structure-based Design and Computational Evaluation of Spiropyrrolidine Derivatives as Novel Acetylcholinesterase Inhibitors for Alzheimer’s Disease

Acetylcholinesterase (AChE; E.C. 3.1.1.7) is a key enzyme involved in cholinergic neurotransmission, catalyzing the hydrolysis of acetylcholine (ACh). Reduced ACh levels are associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD), making AChE inhibition an effective therapeutic strategy. Structurally, AChE possesses a deep active sit...
