cholinesterase |
acetylcholinesterase |
In enzyme terms the difference between cholinesterase and acetylcholinesterase
is that
cholinesterase is an enzyme, in muscles, nerves etc, that catalyzes the hydrolysis of acetylcholine while
acetylcholinesterase is an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine into choline and acetic acid.
cholinesterase |
pyridostigmine |
As nouns the difference between cholinesterase and pyridostigmine
is that
cholinesterase is (enzyme) an enzyme, in muscles, nerves etc, that catalyzes the hydrolysis of acetylcholine while
pyridostigmine is a parasympathomimetic and reversible cholinesterase inhibitor, used to treat muscle weakness and to combat the effects of curariform drug toxicity.
cholinesterase |
aldicarb |
As nouns the difference between cholinesterase and aldicarb
is that
cholinesterase is (enzyme) an enzyme, in muscles, nerves etc, that catalyzes the hydrolysis of acetylcholine while
aldicarb is a carbamate insecticide that acts as a cholinesterase inhibitor.
cholinesterase |
pseudocholinesterase |
As nouns the difference between cholinesterase and pseudocholinesterase
is that
cholinesterase is an enzyme, in muscles, nerves etc, that catalyzes the hydrolysis of acetylcholine while
pseudocholinesterase is one of the two types of cholinesterase (the other being acetylcholinesterase), found primarily in the liver where it hydrolyses butyrylcholine.
cholinesterase |
neostigmine |
As nouns the difference between cholinesterase and neostigmine
is that
cholinesterase is an enzyme, in muscles, nerves etc, that catalyzes the hydrolysis of acetylcholine while
neostigmine is a parasympathomimetic, a reversible cholinesterase inhibitor.
cholinesterase |
carbaryl |
As nouns the difference between cholinesterase and carbaryl
is that
cholinesterase is (enzyme) an enzyme, in muscles, nerves etc, that catalyzes the hydrolysis of acetylcholine while
carbaryl is (chemistry) a white crystalline solid of the carbamate family, a cholinesterase inhibitor used chiefly as an insecticide.
cholinesterase |
physostigmine |
As nouns the difference between cholinesterase and physostigmine
is that
cholinesterase is (enzyme) an enzyme, in muscles, nerves etc, that catalyzes the hydrolysis of acetylcholine while
physostigmine is (chemistry) a parasympathomimetic, a reversible cholinesterase inhibitor alkaloid of the calabar bean, used to treat certain medical conditions.
