  • Title: Effect of arecoline on synaptosomal K+-phosphatase and (Na+ + K+)-ATPase.
    Author: Schwarzenfeld I, Blaschke M, Fischer HD, Rudolph E, Oelszner W.
    Journal: Acta Biol Med Ger; 1976; 35(1):69-72. PubMed ID: 185859.
    Abstract:
    Synaptosomal fractions and synaptosomal membranes from rat brain tissue were prepared and characterized enzymatically. Arecoline increased both the activity of K+-phosphatase in incubated synaptosomal fractions and the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase activity of synaptosomal membranes by 40% and 78%, respectively. This activation of ion transport processes is believed to be associated with increased ACh synthesis produced by arecoline.
