Since tacrine is a well-known inhibitor of the catalytic site of AChE, whereas coumarins showed affinity for the peripheral anionic site (PAS) [161] , this new compounds may be potential dual-and therefore more powerful -inhibitors of ChEs. The in vitro AChE and BuChE inhibitory activity was evaluated using the Ellman's method [159] ; among all the tested molecules, compound 105 resulted the best in AChE inhibition (IC 50 Thanks to their simple structural architecture and chemical stability, coumarins can be easily synthesized and modified in order to produce more active and selective compounds. ./cache/cord-352844-wggg3ynb.txt ./txt/cord-352844-wggg3ynb.txt
