Kitz-Wilson Mechanisms of Action of Neostigmine and Penicillin
نویسنده
چکیده
The molecular mechanism of penicillin action is closely analogous to that of neostigmine. Both drugs react covalently with the active-site serine of their target enzymes. In both cases, the susceptible enzymes self-catalyze their inactivation by their respective drugs. Kinetic analysis of cholinesterase by Richard J. Kitz and Irwin B. Wilson helped to establish that concept. Neostigmine and penicillin are kindred examples of mechanism-based enzyme inhibition, a generally important phenomenon in pharmacology and physiology.

Introduction: As spinal cholinergic receptors exhibit an action against somatic pain, this effect could be potentiated by intrathecal injection of cholinesterase inhibitor-neostigmine. This study was designed to evaluate the role of interathecal neostigmine on local back pain relief after single level lumbar disc surgery. Methods and Materials: In an interventional-expremental study (Imam Khome...
متن کاملThe Different Mechanisms of Action Potential Propagation in the Heart
It was thought previously that cardiac muscle gap junctions provide low-resistance connections between cells and permit the local-circuit current to flow. Some evidences show that myocardial cells may not require low-resistance connections for successful propagation of the action potential (AP). It seems that some other types of mechanisms must be involved in AP propagation. In this article, we...

Introduction: Pain is a complex medical problem that its postoperative inadequate control can produce adverse effects on patients’ physiological, metabolic and mental states. Adding new supplements can lead to an increased duration of analgesia. Therefore, this study aimed to compare the addition of neostigmine and ketamine to 0.25% -bupivacaine for epidural analgesia in increasing duration of...

Background and purpose: The most common method of anesthesia in Cesarean section is spinal anesthesia (SA). Post-Dural puncture headache (PDPH) is one of the complications of SA. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of intravenous administration of atropine and neostigmine in prevention of PDPH following Cesarean section. Materials and methods: This study was performed in 62 candid...
