Depletion of levels of this compound in the brain has been connected to Alzheimer's disease.
A monomethylmercuric cation's affinity for sulfhydryl groups inhibits the enzyme that synthesizes this molecule. Repetitive nerve stimulation at frequencies of two to five Hz depletes stores of this molecule and decreases compound motor action potential amplitudes, a process termed the decremental response. That electrodiagnostic study is frequently helpful in the diagnosis of botulism, as botulin blocks this compound's release. Anticholinergic agents such as scopolamine competitively inhibit this compound's binding to muscarinic receptors, and antibody inhibition of this compound's binding to nicotinic receptors causes myasthenia gravis. Depletion of levels of this compound in the brain has been connected to Alzheimer's disease. FTP, name this neurotransmitter that works at the neuromuscular junction to prompt muscle contraction.
