|
|
Term
without __ and ___ nicotinic receptors may migrate out and form into extrajunctional receptors |
|
Definition
need agrin and musc to anchor nicotinic receptors to lipid bilayer. |
|
|
Term
extrajunctional recpetors can occur in what patient populations |
|
Definition
Can occur with: muscular dystrophy, spinal cord injury, myotonia, ALS, MS, major burns, ICU pts., muscle breakdown |
|
|
Term
why does myathesia gravis do patients need less Sux? |
|
Definition
MG – auto Ab against nicotinic receptors – will not have extra junctional receptors. They just have less receptors, so adjust sux dose. |
|
|
Term

1. Loss of all reflexes 2. Hypnosis 3. Amnesia 4. Analgesia 5. Paralysis |
|
|
Term
ICE used to describe issues with diabetes such as? |
|
Definition
ICE - Inflammation, Coagulation, Endothelial dysfunction |
|
|
Term
suendothelium injury stimulates what coagulation pathway resulting in what? |
|
Definition
Innate immunity: Subendothelium expresses TF, not in contact with blood unless there is an injury factor 10X factor 10a. Creates a short burst of thrombin production called priming thrombin |
|
|
Term
7a activates what at injury site |
|
Definition
o 7a activates platelets at injury site |
|
|
Term
In _____________, don’t get thrombin burst or mature platelet plug formed at injury site. Only have loose fibrinogen. |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
normal endothelium expresses natural anticoagulants such as___ and ________ |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
endothelial cells turns ____ into nitric oxide (NO) |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
|
Definition
NO finds guanykate cyclase cGMP, activates protein kinase G phosphorylates myosin heads of smooth muscle cells wrapped around blood vessels |
|
|
Term
when drugs bind to mu receptor what type of channel is opened |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
what type of Na channel is the site of Local anesthetics |
|
Definition
VOLTAGE GATED Na Channels |
|
|
Term
If the pka of a LA is close to or furhter away from the body's pH will the drug act fastest |
|
Definition
the closer the pKa is to the pH the faster the LA will work |
|
|
Term
what extreme pH would locals not work well in? |
|
Definition
Extreme acid pH would effect LA from working well since it would be totally bounded by H+ ions. |
|
|
Term
in a skeletal muscle what are the two filaments |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
for cross bridging to work in our muscles what steps need to happen. |
|
Definition
The myosin head needs to be in the ready state, cocked back. To get there an ATP binds to myosin head. In the head it undergoes hydrolysis resulting in a phosphate molecule and ADP left on the head. The head is now cocked back. Neck the sarcoplasmic reticulum needs to release Ca. Ca needs to bind to troponin on the thin filament. Once this occurs the troponin will tell the tropomyosin to move over and expose the binding sites. As soon as the binding sites are exposed the mysoin head fires and binds to the binding site which then causes the release of the phosphate. then the power stroke occurs causing the ADP to be released. Then cross bridge detachment occurs only after ATP binds to it causing the myosin to release. Cannot go back to cocked position until ATP is hydrolyzed again. |

• Extra junctional nicotinic receptors happens with disease states of |
|
Definition
• Extra junctional nicotinic receptors happens with disease states of muscular dystrophy, spinal cord injury, major burns, ALS, MS, myotonia, ICU pts, muscle breakdown. These people are exposed to risk of massive K+ release that causes cardiac arrest. They should not get sux. |
|
|
Term
MG patients have what abnormalities with their AcH receptors |
|
Definition
• MG have LESS receptors, adjust sux dose but can still give. (autoimmune disorder that eats away at nicotinic receptors and destroys them. No extrajunctional nicotinic receptors here because nothing wrong with neuro or muscle. So they just have less receptors) |
|
|
Term
explain the physiology of why despite giving NMB drugs that stimulation of the larynx can still cause profound parasympathetic responses? So what exactly does NMB do to the larynx? |
|
Definition
NMB drugs can only block alpha motor neurons. So when you stimulate larynx with intubation it sends signal to the medulla which sends a effector signal to the throat via the recurrent vagus nerve to close airway but can't get there because you blocked it. HOWEVER the medulla can also send vagus signals via non-motor pathways and result in bradycardia ect... |
