Résumé

Le mécanisme d'action des esters carboxyliques de la choline commence, probablement, par une hydrolyse enzymatique provoquée par une des cholinestérases. Les produits de l'hydrolyse réagissent avec un facteur inconnu, dont la spécificité est cependant définissable par la structure du résidu cholinique.
