Abstract
The influence of tetrahydroaminacrin upon acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase is described. The compound acts as a reversible inhibitor, partly competitive with the substrate. It is a more potent inhibitor of BuChE than of AChE.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
