1 Neuroscience with Pharmacology 2 Acetylcholine Neuromuscular Junction 2: Pharmacology + Sir Henry Dale Quaternary nitrogen Neuromuscular Junction - Pharmacology 1. Principles and methods for studying pharmacology at the NMJ 2. Targets for drug action at the NMJ 3. Drugs affecting Receptors (activation) 1. Principles and methods 4. Drugs affecting Esterase (inactivation) 5. Drugs affecting release 6. Drugs affecting synthesis and storage. When doing drugs a good pharmacologist needs to know: Drugs acting at the NMJ are useful as: Eperimental tools Clinical treatments Target specificity/ligand specificity Agonist/Antagonist Dose/Response Efficacy (EC50/IC50)/Affinity (K D ) Competitive/Non-competitive Clinical/Non-clinical uses Side-effects 1
2 Drug assays at the NMJ are based on: Measuring muscle contractions in response to release of neurotransmitter by nerve stimulation. Repetitive stimulus : Tetanus Biological response (->efficacy, EC50) Ligand binding (->affinity, K D ) Single nerve stimulus : Twitch 1 sec Specificity and dose-response of antagonists Atropine d-tubocurarine EC 50 Ligand binding visualised But normally measured chemically (eg radioactively-labelled ligand) Control α-bungarotoin 10µm α-btx 2

Drugs affecting synthesis and storage 7
8 Drugs that inhibit transmitter synthesis/storage Choline acetyltransferase Inhibitor Choline uptake X Vesicle filling Summary 1. Every step in the cycle - synthesis, storage release, activation and inactivation - is a potential target for drug action at the NMJ. 2. Clinical uses of drugs acting at the NMJ: - muscle relaants as adjunct to anaesthesia in surgery - treatment of neuromuscular disease 3. Drugs affecting Receptors: - carbachol, decamethonium, suamethonium (agonists) - tubocurarine, α-bungarotoin, atracurium (antagonists) 4. Drugs that block Esterase: - edrophonium, prostigmine, neostigmine, sarin 5. Drugs affecting release: - TEA, 4-AP, α-latrotoin (agonists) - botulinum toin, ω-agatoin (antagonists) 6. Drugs that block uptake, storage and synthesis : - hemicholinium-3, vesamicol, AF64A 8
