Acetycholine: A neurotransmitting cholinergic formed by the interaction of Vitamin B5 with choline. Acetycholine facilitates synaptic fuction of the nervous system and transmissions to muscles. Atropine interferes and blocks this function.

Acetycholine, as essential as it may be, is constantly destroyed by an enzyme that functions as a cleaner after the neurotransmission activity of acetycholine is completed by turning it into choline and acetate. The body is therefore constantly manufacturing acetycholine.

Acetycholine is a vasodilator and cardiac depressant and stimulates the vagus nerve but is rarely used therapeutically for this purpose as it has such a short life.
