==Mechanism of action== |
|
|
Pyridostigmine is an ]. It ]s ] in the ], thus slowing down the ] of ]. Like its predecessor ], it is a quaternary ] inhibitor of cholinesterase that does not cross the ]. It carbamylates about 30% of peripheral cholinesterase enzyme, and the carbamylated enzyme eventually regenerates by natural hydrolysis and excess acetylcholine (ACh) levels revert to normal. |
|
|
|
|
|
The ACh diffuses across the synaptic cleft and binds to receptors on the post synaptic membrane, causing an influx of ] (Na<sup>+</sup>,) resulting in depolarization. If large enough, this depolarization results in an action potential. To prevent constant stimulation once the ACh is released, an enzyme called ] is present in the endplate membrane close to the receptors on the post synaptic membrane, and quickly hydrolyses ACh. |
