Biochem/physiol Actions

Muscarinic acetylcholine receptor agonist. A constituent of betel nut that may be carcinogenic on prolonged exposure. Cytotoxicity is reduced by antioxidants, such as reduced glutathione or N-acetyl-L-cysteine. Induces ADP ribosylation of histones and chromatid relaxation in spleen and bone marrow cells.

Male Sprague-Dawley rats, preoperatively trained in a 1-h delay non-match-to-position radial maze task, received bilateral stereotaxic injections of a selective cholinotoxin, ethylcholine aziridinium ion (AF64A: 3 nmol/3 microliters/lateral ventricle). Animals treated with AF64A made significantly more total postdelay errors than
