Donepezil inhibits the acetylcholine degradation molecule acetylcholinesterase (AChE). Clinical studies reported that Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients with hip fractures had improved bone quality and better fracture healing if they were treated with AD medication donepezil. We asked whether mesenchymal stroma cells (MSC) from an osteoporosis sheep model treated with donepezil increased their proliferation rate and mRNA expression.

A tool to design target-specific primers for polymerase chain reaction (PCR). It uses Primer3 to design PCR primers and then uses BLAST and global alignment algorithm to screen primers against user-selected database in order to avoid primer pairs (all combinations including forward-reverse primer pair, forward-forward as well as reverse-reverse pairs) that can cause non-specific amplifications.
