Linked from

The 25 pages that link to Organophosphate poisoning, each with the reason it gives.

• AcetylcholineRelated: Acetylcholine accumulates when its breakdown is inhibited, disrupting nerves, muscles, and glands.

• Neuromuscular junctionRelated: Blocking acetylcholine breakdown overstimulates neuromuscular junctions.

• AtropineRelated: Atropine treats dangerous muscarinic symptoms such as bronchial secretions and bronchoconstriction.

• AcetylcholinesteraseRelated: Organophosphates can phosphorylate the enzyme and prevent it from clearing acetylcholine.

• Parasympathetic nervous systemRelated: Excess acetylcholine can produce severe overstimulation of parasympathetic targets.

• PralidoximeRelated: This is the poisoning mechanism pralidoxime is intended to counter.

• Enzyme inhibitionRelated: It demonstrates the physiological consequences of persistent enzyme inhibition.

• AntidoteRelated: Atropine and pralidoxime address different consequences of this poisoning.

• Synaptic cleftRelated: Inhibition prevents acetylcholine clearance from synaptic clefts.
