Does Abnormal Expression of Acetylcholine Receptors in Hirschsprung's Disease Induce Acetylcholine Esterase Positive Nerve Fibres?

Alpha bungarotoxin (α-BTX) is a neurotoxin isolated from the venom of Bungarus multicinctus that binds specifically to the β-subunits of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChR) on myotube membranes. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the distribution of α-BTX-sensitive nAChR in Hi...
