Cards

Term
Inhibitors of NA+ Channels
Definition
Tetrodotoxin & Saxitoxin, Cocaine and Lidocaine
Term
K+ Channel Inhibitor
Definition
Tetraethylammonium (K+ channels only have ONE gate)
Term
Myelination's affect on capacitance and resistance
Definition

R up 5000x C down 50x

Multiple Sclerosis is loss of myelination, loss of motor function 

Term
blocks voltage gated Ca++ channels, won't block AP, but will block secretion of NT's
Definition
Omega-conotoxin
Term
blocks some type of voltage-gated K+ channels...therefore have slow repolarization
Definition
Dendrotoxin
Term
endopeptidase that breaks down vesicular fusion proteins...cant release NT b/c docking and fusion is dysfunctional= flacid paralysis
Definition
Botulinum toxin
Term
endopeptidase,  breaks down vesicular fusion proteins..inhibits GLYCINE (inhib NT)= spastic paralysis
Definition
Tetanus toxin
Term
exaggerated Ach response and SLUD
Definition
Acetylcholinesterase inhibitors
Term
aka belladonna, muscarinic receptor blocker, dilates pupils
Definition
Atropine
Term
Nicotinic receptor blocker, can be used to paralyze the diaphragm,
Definition
Curare
Term
3 derivatives of Arachidonic Acid
Definition
COX, 5-Lipoxygenase, Epoxygenase
Term
Derivatives of Cyclooxegenase
Definition

Thromboxanes- up platelets

Prostacyclins- down platelets

prostaglandins- up smooth muscle inflamation 

Term
Deriv of 5-Lipoxygenase
Definition
Leukotrienes- inflamm asthma
Term
Eicosonoids are derived from
Definition
Arachidonic Acid
Term
two phospholipases that lead to prod of Arach Acid
Definition
PLA2, PLCBeta
Term

TGF-Beta

type of mediator?

type of kinase?

Hetero/homo 

Definition

Paracrine

Ser/thr

Hetero 

Term

NGF Receptor

type of mediator?

type of kinase?

hetero/homo  

Definition

Paracrine

Tyr kinase

Homo 

Term

LIF Receptor

assoc protein? 

type of kinase

hetero/homo 

Definition

JAK kinase is assoc protein (not part of receptor)

TYR kinase

HOMO 

Term

ANP receptor

type of kinase?

makes? 

Definition

not a kinase--Guanyly cyclase

makes cGMP 

Term

Guanyly cyclase- soluble & particulate

soluble...

hetero/homo

what are 3 subunit domains?

Normally inactive...what is primary activator? 

example of particulate (memb bound) Guany. cyc? 

Definition

hetero

heme-binding domain, dimerization domain, and guanylyl cyclase catalytic domain

NO is primary activator 

Ex: ANP receptor  

Term
what is homologous b/t all protein kinases regarding structure?
Definition

catalytic subunit is homologous

regulatory and autoinhib are diff
