Possible Interaction: Choline and Halothane

supplement:

Choline

Research Papers that Mention the Interaction

The concentration of halothane resulting in half-maximum inhibition of total choline uptake was 1.5%.
Anesthesiology  •  1994  |  View Paper
Halothane (3% in air, vol/vol) caused a “competitive-like” inhibition of choline uptake in synaptosomes but had no effect on the enzymatic activity of choline acetyl-transferase(ChAT).
It is suggested that halothane inhibits ACh synthesis by directly interfering with the carrier-mediated transport system of choline.
Anesthesia and analgesia  •  1985  |  View Paper
In cats under halothane or methoxyflurane, iontophoretic applications of choline are only eight times weaker than applications of acetylcholine in evoking firing of neurons in the sensorimotor region of the cerebral cortex.
