Organophosphate Toxicity - StatPearls - NCBI Bookshelf Organophosphate poisoning induces symptoms based on its action at muscarinic receptors These effects typically develop more slowly than nicotinic receptor effects, occurring through a G-protein–coupled receptor mechanism
Organophosphate poisoning - Symptoms, diagnosis and treatment | BMJ . . . Organophosphate poisoning occurs after dermal, respiratory, or oral exposure to either organophosphate pesticides (e g , chlorpyrifos, dimethoate, malathion, parathion) or nerve agents (e g , tabun, sarin), causing inhibition of acetylcholinesterase at nerve synapses
Organophosphorus Nerve Agents: Types, Toxicity, and Treatments After a general introduction, this review elucidates the mechanisms underlying cholinergic and noncholinergic effects of organophosphorus compounds The conceivable treatment strategies for organophosphate poisoning are different types of bioscavengers which include stoichiometric, catalytic, and pseudocatalytic
