Inhibition of acetylcholinesterase by derivatives of 1,3,2-dioxaphosphorinane 2-oxide. 1976

D B Coult

Cholinesterases are inhibited by 2-fluoro-1,3,2-dioxaphosphorinane 2-oxide by a mechanism that involves a slow association step followed by a very slow phosphorylation step. No phosphorylation step was observed for the interaction between acetylcholinesterase and 2-S-[2'-(NN-diethylamino)ethyl]thio-1,3,2-dioxaphosphorinane 2-oxide.

D002800	Cholinesterase Inhibitors	Drugs that inhibit cholinesterases. The neurotransmitter ACETYLCHOLINE is rapidly hydrolyzed, and thereby inactivated, by cholinesterases. When cholinesterases are inhibited, the action of endogenously released acetylcholine at cholinergic synapses is potentiated. Cholinesterase inhibitors are widely used clinically for their potentiation of cholinergic inputs to the gastrointestinal tract and urinary bladder, the eye, and skeletal muscles; they are also used for their effects on the heart and the central nervous system.
