Non-cholinergic actions of acetylcholinesterases: proteases regulating cell growth and development?

D H Small1.   

Abstract

The enzyme acetylcholinesterase has a well-established function in limiting the duration of acetylcholine's action at cholinergic synapses. Until recently, the function of this enzyme in non-cholinergic tissues has been a mystery. Recent evidence suggests that some forms of acetylcholinesterase act as proteases to regulate cell growth and development.
