It blocks the sodium channels that are required to create action potential in the muscles to make them contract.
Tetrodotoxin contains a series of carbon-carbon and carbon-oxygen bonds, with a unique fused ring structure known as a tricyclic guanidinium moiety. This complex structure is responsible for the potent blocking effect of tetrodoxin on sodium channels.
no
Tetrodotoxin blocks voltage-gated sodium channels in nerve cells, leading to the inhibition of action potentials and the disruption of nerve signal transmission. This can result in paralysis, respiratory failure, and death in severe cases.
what effect the muscles are the cold water
it is dangerous to other fish because it is poisonion
it makes your muscles strong to build strength
Scientists have found that toxic fugu have unique exocrine glands for the secretion of tetrodotoxin. The fish appear to actively produce the toxin, rather than passively acquire it from the environment.
Alcohol doesn't effect strength necessarily, but alcohol does effect your muscles, because the alcohol in your blood pulses through your veins, it also goes through your muscles and weakens you
neurotoxins, like tetrodotoxin
Carbonation is not known to have any effect on muscles. However, there is some research that indicates that carbonation, over time, may weaken bone structure.
it can seriously effect the brain seriously effect the muscles and seriously effect the eyes
Marijuana, as a depressant, will relax muscles while a person is under the affects of it, but has little to no long term, negative effects (on muscles).
