Acetylcholine

Acetylcholine (ACh) is an organic compound that functions in the brain and body of many types of animals (including humans) as a neurotransmitter.

See Ethoprophos and Acetylcholine

Acetylcholinesterase

Acetylcholinesterase (HGNC symbol ACHE; EC 3.1.1.7; systematic name acetylcholine acetylhydrolase), also known as AChE, AChase or acetylhydrolase, is the primary cholinesterase in the body.

See Ethoprophos and Acetylcholinesterase

Acetylcholinesterase inhibitor

Acetylcholinesterase inhibitors (AChEIs) also often called cholinesterase inhibitors, inhibit the enzyme acetylcholinesterase from breaking down the neurotransmitter acetylcholine into choline and acetate, thereby increasing both the level and duration of action of acetylcholine in the central nervous system, autonomic ganglia and neuromuscular junctions, which are rich in acetylcholine receptors. Ethoprophos and acetylcholinesterase inhibitor are acetylcholinesterase inhibitors.

See Ethoprophos and Acetylcholinesterase inhibitor

Atropine

Atropine is a tropane alkaloid and anticholinergic medication used to treat certain types of nerve agent and pesticide poisonings as well as some types of slow heart rate, and to decrease saliva production during surgery.

See Ethoprophos and Atropine

Biomarker

In biomedical contexts, a biomarker, or biological marker, is a measurable indicator of some biological state or condition.

See Ethoprophos and Biomarker

Cholinergic

Cholinergic agents are compounds which mimic the action of acetylcholine and/or butyrylcholine.

See Ethoprophos and Cholinergic

Cholinesterase

The enzyme cholinesterase (EC 3.1.1.8, choline esterase; systematic name acylcholine acylhydrolase) catalyses the hydrolysis of choline-based esters: Several of these serve as neurotransmitters.

See Ethoprophos and Cholinesterase

Click beetle

Elateridae or click beetles (or "typical click beetles" to distinguish them from the related families Cerophytidae and Eucnemidae, which are also capable of clicking) are a family of beetles.

See Ethoprophos and Click beetle

Drug metabolism is the metabolic breakdown of drugs by living organisms, usually through specialized enzymatic systems.

See Ethoprophos and Drug metabolism

Esterase

In biochemistry, an esterase is a class of enzyme that splits esters into an acid and an alcohol in a chemical reaction with water called hydrolysis (and as such, it is a type of hydrolase).

See Ethoprophos and Esterase

Hemoglobin

Hemoglobin (haemoglobin, Hb or Hgb) is a protein containing iron that facilitates the transport of oxygen in red blood cells.

See Ethoprophos and Hemoglobin

Hydrogen peroxide

Hydrogen peroxide is a chemical compound with the formula.

See Ethoprophos and Hydrogen peroxide

Insecticide

Insecticides are pesticides used to kill insects.

See Ethoprophos and Insecticide

Miosis

Miosis, or myosis, is excessive constriction of the pupil.

See Ethoprophos and Miosis

Muscarinic acetylcholine receptor

Muscarinic acetylcholine receptors, or mAChRs, are acetylcholine receptors that form G protein-coupled receptor complexes in the cell membranes of certain neurons and other cells.

See Ethoprophos and Muscarinic acetylcholine receptor

Nematicide

A nematicide is a type of chemical pesticide used to kill plant-parasitic nematodes.

See Ethoprophos and Nematicide

Nicotinic acetylcholine receptor

Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors, or nAChRs, are receptor polypeptides that respond to the neurotransmitter acetylcholine.

See Ethoprophos and Nicotinic acetylcholine receptor

No-observed-adverse-effect level

The no-observed-adverse-effect level (NOAEL) denotes the level of exposure of an organism, found by experiment or observation, at which there is no biologically or statistically significant increase in the frequency or severity of any adverse effects of the tested protocol.

See Ethoprophos and No-observed-adverse-effect level

Nucleophile

In chemistry, a nucleophile is a chemical species that forms bonds by donating an electron pair.

See Ethoprophos and Nucleophile

Organophosphate

In organic chemistry, organophosphates (also known as phosphate esters, or OPEs) are a class of organophosphorus compounds with the general structure, a central phosphate molecule with alkyl or aromatic substituents.

See Ethoprophos and Organophosphate

Paraoxonase

Paraoxonases are a family of mammalian enzymes with aryldialkylphosphatase activity.

See Ethoprophos and Paraoxonase

Pheochromocytoma

Pheochromocytoma is a rare tumor of the adrenal medulla composed of chromaffin cells and is part of the paraganglioma (PGL) family of tumors, being defined as an intra-adrenal PGL.

See Ethoprophos and Pheochromocytoma

Phosphorus trichloride

Phosphorus trichloride is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula PCl3.

See Ethoprophos and Phosphorus trichloride

Phosphoryl chloride

Phosphoryl chloride (commonly called phosphorus oxychloride) is a colourless liquid with the formula.

See Ethoprophos and Phosphoryl chloride

Phosphorylation

In biochemistry, phosphorylation is the attachment of a phosphate group to a molecule or an ion.

See Ethoprophos and Phosphorylation

Pralidoxime

Pralidoxime (2-pyridine aldoxime methyl chloride) or 2-PAM, usually as the chloride or iodide salts, belongs to a family of compounds called oximes that bind to organophosphate-inactivated acetylcholinesterase.

See Ethoprophos and Pralidoxime

Propanethiol

Propanethiol is an organic compound with the molecular formula C3H8S.

See Ethoprophos and Propanethiol

Propyl group

In organic chemistry, a propyl group is a three-carbon alkyl substituent with chemical formula for the linear form.

See Ethoprophos and Propyl group

Red blood cell

Red blood cells (RBCs), referred to as erythrocytes (with -cyte translated as 'cell' in modern usage) in academia and medical publishing, also known as red cells, erythroid cells, and rarely haematids, are the most common type of blood cell and the vertebrate's principal means of delivering oxygen to the body tissues—via blood flow through the circulatory system.

See Ethoprophos and Red blood cell

Route of administration

In pharmacology and toxicology, a route of administration is the way by which a drug, fluid, poison, or other substance is taken into the body.

See Ethoprophos and Route of administration

Serine

Serine (symbol Ser or S) is an α-amino acid that is used in the biosynthesis of proteins.

See Ethoprophos and Serine

Shortness of breath

Shortness of breath (SOB), known as dyspnea (in AmE) or dyspnoea (in BrE), is an uncomfortable feeling of not being able to breathe well enough.

See Ethoprophos and Shortness of breath
