Intoxication with the organophosphorus compound paraoxon (POX), an inhibitor of serine hydrolases, is frequent. Oximes are the only enzyme reactivators clinically available. Recent work has shown that lactate is able to reduce in vitro the POX effects on butyrylcholinesterase (BChE). Most of the acute clinical symptoms, however, are caused by inhibition of acetylcholinesterase (AChE). Effects of lactate on the inhibition of AChE by POX were assessed in vitro in plasma of 12 (six male, six female) healthy human volunteers. The determinations were repeated using different lactate and different POX concentrations. The AChE activity determinations were performed in the following settings: (BL) baseline (untreated plasma); (a) after addition of POX to plasma (pl + POX); (b) after POX and plasma were incubated and then lactate was added (pl + POX/lact); (c) after addition of lactate to plasma (pl + lact); (d) after lactate and plasma were incubated and then POX was added (pl + lact/POX); (e) after lactate and POX were incubated and then added to plasma (lact + POX/pl). In the micro- and millimolar ranges, lactate is able to protect in vitro AChE from inhibition by POX when added to human plasma prior to POX or when incubated with POX prior to addition to plasma. Lactate added to plasma after POX has no protective effect. In a second set of experiments, the effect of lactate on AChE activity was determined. At high millimolar concentrations, lactate itself inhibits AChE non-competitively (mixed inhibition) to an extent comparable to POX (inhibition constant K(I) = 254 mM).
