Fenchlorphos
Cholinesterase (ChE) Inhibitor
Fenchlorphos is an organophosphate compound that acts as a potent inhibitor of acetylcholinesterase (AChE), an important enzyme in cholinergic signaling. By disrupting AChE activity, Fenchlorphos leads to the accumulation of acetylcholine, resulting in increased cholinergic neurotransmission. Additionally, this compound has been shown to induce mitochondrial dysfunction, making it a valuable tool for research on neurobiology and toxicology. Its applications include studies on the mechanisms of insecticide action and investigations into the impacts of cholinergic inhibition on cellular metabolism.
