[Changes in the acetylcholine--cholinesterase system in the dynamics of experimental boltulin poisoning]. / Izmenenie sistemy atsetilkholin--kholinésteraza v dinamike éksperimental'noi botulinicheskoi intoksikatsii

A study was made of the effect of botulin, type B, on the acetylcholine-cholinesterase system. High doses of the toxin increased the level of acetylcholine in the peripheral blood nervous system, as well as in the central nervous system. Injection of DLM of the toxin results in elevation of the acetylcholine level in the peripheral nervous system. Cholinesterase activity was practically unchanged.
