Inhibition of acetylcholinesterase by various opioids.

abstract：:1. The ethyl acetate (EtOAc) extract and 3-O-galloyl-4,6-(S)-hexahydroxydiphenoyl-d-glucose (3OG46HG) of Euphorbia thymifolia Linnea have been shown to exhibit anti-herpes simplex virus (HSV)-2 activity in vitro. In the present study, we investigated the mode of action of these two compounds in suppressing HSV-2 multi...
