L- and DL-carnitine induce tetanic fade in rat neuromuscular preparation

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2003
Carnitine, a structurally choline-like metabolite, has been used to increase athletic performance, although its effects on neuromuscular transmission have not been investigated. It is present in skeletal muscle and its plasma levels are about 30 to 90 µM.

Tetanic fade induced by d-Tubocurarine, Hexamethonium and Neostigmine in phrenic nerve diaphragm of diabetic rats

open access: yesActa Scientiarum. Health Sciences, 2008
A acetilcolina liberada do terminal nervoso motor (TNM) pode modular sua própria liberação (automodulação do TNM), interagindo com receptores nicotínicos (autoestimulação do TNM) ou muscarínicos (autoinibição do TNM) pré-juncionais.

Gymnodimine A and 13-desMethyl Spirolide C Alter Intracellular Calcium Levels via Acetylcholine Receptors

open access: yesToxins, 2020
Gymnodimines and spirolides are cyclic imine phycotoxins and known antagonists of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs). We investigated the effect of gymnodimine A (GYM A) and 13-desmethyl spirolide C (SPX 1) from Alexandrium ostenfeldii on rat ...

Natural Compounds Interacting with Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptors: From Low-Molecular Weight Ones to Peptides and Proteins

open access: yesToxins, 2015
Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) fulfill a variety of functions making identification and analysis of nAChR subtypes a challenging task. Traditional instruments for nAChR research are d-tubocurarine, snake venom protein α-bungarotoxin (α-Bgt ...

The Advanced Floating Chirality Distance Geometry Approach―How Anisotropic NMR Parameters Can Support the Determination of the Relative Configuration of Natural Products

open access: yesMarine Drugs, 2020
The configurational analysis of complex natural products by NMR spectroscopy is still a challenging task. The assignment of the relative configuration is usually carried out by analysis of interproton distances from NOESY or ROESY spectra (qualitative or

TUBOCURARINE AND RENAL FAILURE

open access: yesBritish Journal of Anaesthesia, 1972
SUMMARY Different observations concerning the duration of the neuromuscular blocking effect of tubocurarine in patients with renal failure have been rationalized by pharmacokinetic analysis. Computer simulations predict that absence of renal function will have little effect on the duration of action of relatively small single doses of tubocurarine but

Cardiovascular Effects of Tubocurarine in Man [PDF]

open access: yesSurvey of Anesthesiology, 1978
The cardiovascular effects of tubocurarine in patients anaesthetised with thiopentone or ketamine have been compared, using volume-pulse finger plethysmography, electrocardiography, sphygmomanometry and impedance cardiography for the clinical assessments.

Evaluation of the cholinomimetic actions of trimethylsulfonium, a compound present in the midgut gland of the sea hare Aplysia brasiliana (Gastropoda, Opisthobranchia)

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2002
Trimethylsulfonium, a compound present in the midgut gland of the sea hare Aplysia brasiliana, negatively modulates vagal response, indicating a probable ability to inhibit cholinergic responses.
