DescriptionNeurotoxin produced by fermentation of clostridium botulinum type B. The protein exists in noncovalent association with hemagglutinin and nonhemagglutinin proteins as a neurotoxin complex. The neurotoxin complex is recovered from the fermentation process.
Indication/DiseaseTo treat patients with cervical dystonia to reduce the severity of abnormal head position and neck pain associated with cervical dystonia.
PharmacodynamicsBotulinum Toxin Type B inhibits acetylcholine release at the neuromuscular junction via a three stage process: 1) Heavy Chain mediated neurospecific binding of the toxin, 2) internalization of the toxin by receptor-mediated endocytosis, and 3) ATP and pH dependent translocation of the Light Chain to the neuronal cytosol where it acts as a zinc-dependent endoprotease cleaving polypeptides essential for neurotransmitter release.
Mechanism of ActionBotulinum Toxin Type B binds and cleaves the synaptic Vesicle Associated Membrane Protein (VAMP, also known as synaptobrevin) which is a component of the protein complex responsible for docking and fusion of the synaptic vesicle to the presynaptic membrane, a necessary step to neurotransmitter release.
ToxicityOne unit of Botulinum Toxin Type B corresponds to the calculated median lethal intraperitoneal dose (LD50) in mice.

Recommended DosageThe recommended initial dose of MYOBLOC (botulinum toxin type b) for patients with a prior history of tolerating botulinum toxin injections is 2,500 to 5,000 Units divided among affected muscles. Patients without a prior history of tolerating botulinum toxin injections should receive lower initial dose.
