10-21 | [Toxicity]
The inhibition of AChE by these anticholinesterases leads to an accumulation of
endogenous ACh, and thus results in hyperactivation of cholinergic
receptors. Signs of acute poisoning can include irritability,
tremors, convulsions, and predominately parasympathetic
effects, with death usually the result of respiratory failure.
Since AChE is contained in erythrocytes, the assay of erythrocyte
AChE activity can be used as a diagnostic tool to assess
exposure to organophosphorus anticholinesterases. |
Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Uses]
Pesticides. | [Definition]
Any substance that inhibits or inactivates acetylcholinesterase, thereby preventing the hydrolysis of acetylcholine. Their action leads to an accumulation of endogenous acetylcholine with a resultant hyperactivity of cholinergic neurons, which can prove lethal. | [General Description]
Predominantly exists as a tetrameric glycoprotein composed of disulfide-linked homodimers with a monomer MW of ~80 kDa. | [Hazard]
Tremors; convulsions; respiratory failure; death. | [Biochem/physiol Actions]
Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) is regarded as a biomarker in neurotoxicity. It is a modulator of nitric oxide signal transduction pathway and marker of membrane integrity and aging. The levels of erythrocyte (RBC) AChE are affected on pesticide exposure and in hemolytic anemia. RBC AChE is a marker in Hirschsprung′s disease and inflammation. |
