Psychiatry related information on BCHE

In Alzheimer's disease, BCHE may have thus acquired an inverse role to that of AChE by adopting imperfect amphipathic characteristics of its C terminus. Our results point to a possible association between an abnormal lipid metabolism and the BChE activity and might have implications as regards the pathomechanism of both Alzheimer's and vascular dementias and the cholinesterase inhibitor therapy of dementing disorders.
