Term
NMDA recepor, type of channel? effect of glycine in CNS? PNS?
Definition
Na and ca channel - important for NT release
CNS glycine - agonist
PNS glycine - antagonist
Term
endogenous NMDA agonsists? antagonists?
Definition
agonists - excitatory AAs, glutamate, acetate
antagonists Zn and MG
Term
effect and SEs of Mg
Definition
-decreases excitability
SEs - decreases in HR, BP, tendon reflex, muscle force, CNS
Term
Ketamine; active isomer? action? effect? SEs?
Definition
(S) esketamine
NMDA antagonist
potent analgesic; Sympathomimetic = increased RR, HR, BP, O2 consumption
SEs - bronchorrhea, sialorrhea, vivid dreams
Term
Memantine; action? use? SEs
Definition
NMDA antagonist
rapid blocking/unblocking (unlike Mg)
prevention of dementia/improved mental performance
SE - bradycardia and bronchoconstriction
