Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Bacterial toxins can inhibit the release of acetylcholine (ACH) from cholinergic nerve endings to produce a flaccid type of skeletal muscle paralysis. In recent years, preparations of these bacterial toxins (Botox) have been injected into skeletal muscle to produce temporary paralysis in a variety of conditions. The cholinergic receptors at the neuromuscular junction (NMJ) of skeletal muscle are known as nicotinic-muscle (Nm) receptors. Drugs that block the effects of ACH at the NMJ are referred to as neuromuscular blockers or skeletal muscle relaxants.
