Effect of adrenalectomy on the synthesis of cholinesterases.
Adrenalectomy decreased the rate of regeneration of brain and striated muscle acetylcholinesterase (EC 3.1.1.7) in mice after sublethal poisoning with diisopropylphosphofluoridate (DFP). This may explain similar findings in previous experiments in hypophysectomized animals.
