Biological Activity: Echothiopate iodide (Echothiophate iodide) is an acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitor. Echothiopate iodide irreversibly inhibits acetylcholinesterase, prevents the enzymatic hydrolysis of acetylcholine, and increases the local acetylcholine concentration in the ciliary muscle, thereby driving muscarinic receptor downregulation and regulatory hyposensitivity to Pilocarpine Hydrochloride. Echothiopate iodide can be used in the study of glaucoma[1][2].
