Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

HC-3 (hemicholinium-3) is not an acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitor; it inhibits the uptake of choline into the presynaptic terminal, which is necessary for the synthesis of acetylcholine, rather than inhibiting the breakdown of acetylcholine like AChE inhibitors do. Neostigmine, Sarin, and organophosphorus insecticides are all examples of AChE inhibitors.
