D-APS

A

Antagonist at GLUT binding site

Voltage dependent antagonist

17
Q

D-serine

A

Endogenous agonist at glycine site

18
Q

Thrombus

A

Aggregated platelets and` RCB clumped together by fibrin

19
Q

M1,5 Agonist

A

DHPG

20
Q

M2,3 Agonist

A

APDC

21
Q

M4. 6-8 Agonist

A

I-AP4

22
Q

Full KO

A

Gene disrupted in all cells

23
Q

Condition Gene KO

A

Only have KO in certain region (i.e. HPC)

Relies on promoter of gene that is only found in a specific tissue/cell

24
Q

Inducible Gene KO

A

Administer drug to activate genomic changes

25
Q

mGluR and Umami

A

mGluR1, 4 responsible for umamai

Found in all regions of tongue bearing taste buds

Low humidity and pressure in airplanes affects taste receptors, but not umami ones

Foods with high level of GLU like tomatoes become even more savory
