Q

List the substances that interfere with cholinergic transmission

A

Hemicholinuim- inhibits choline transporters

Vesimicol- inhibits ACH proton transporters

Botulinum toxin- breaks down/ degrades synaptobrevin and syntaxin leading to paralysis

Lactro toxin ( black widow spider)- causes excessive interaction of syntaxin and synaptobrevin leading to excessive release of ACH which results in cholinergic crisis
