Murexine (urocanoylcholine, [2-beta-imidazol-4(5)-ylacryloyloxyethyl]trimethylammonium chloride hydrochloride) produced a contracture like acetylcholine in the frog rectus and a neuromuscular block in the rat diaphragm which was not relieved by neostigmine but was antagonized by hexamethonium. Using the foot muscle of the frog, electrical recordings showed that murexine produced a neuromuscular block and depolarized the end-plate region. These effects were similar to those seen with suxamethonium, decamethonium and acetylcholine. While murexine had the same depolarizing potency as decamethonium, it was only one-tenth as active as suxamethonium and acetylcholine. It was concluded that murexine could be classified as a "depolarizing type" of neuromuscular blocking agent but was less potent than suxamethonium.
紫脲酸铵(尿刊酰胆碱,[2-β-咪唑-4(5)-基丙烯酰氧基乙基]三甲基氯化铵盐酸盐)在蛙直肌中产生类似乙酰胆碱的挛缩,在大鼠膈肌中产生神经肌肉阻滞,新斯的明不能缓解这种阻滞,但六甲铵可拮抗它。利用蛙的足部肌肉进行电记录显示,紫脲酸铵产生神经肌肉阻滞并使终板区去极化。这些效应与琥珀酰胆碱、十烃季铵和乙酰胆碱所产生的效应相似。虽然紫脲酸铵具有与十烃季铵相同的去极化效力,但它的活性仅为琥珀酰胆碱和乙酰胆碱的十分之一。得出的结论是,紫脲酸铵可归类为“去极化型”神经肌肉阻滞剂,但效力比琥珀酰胆碱弱。
