Allosteric inhibition of muscle-type nicotinic acetylcholine receptors by a neuromuscular blocking agent pancuronium. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2023 Muscle relaxants are indispensable for surgical anesthesia. Early studies suggested that a classical non-depolarizing muscle relaxant pancuronium competitively binds to the ligand binding site to block nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChR). Our group
