Other Notes Hydrolysis by acetylcholinesterase2; Base-catalysed hydrolysis in the presence of surfactants3; Kinetic parameters of acetylcholinesterase-catalyzed hydrolysis4 Biochem/physiol Actions Acetylcholine chloride, injected at 20 mg/kg body weight, reduces mortality and plasma proinflammatory cytokines in mice with experimentally-induced sepsis 1. The cholinergicanti-infl ammatory mechanism is probably mediated by interaction of acetylcholine with α7n cholinoreceptor on monocytes, macrophages, and neutrophils, which decreases the levels of proinflammatory cytokines such as TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6. |
