Q

NH3 effects on the nervous system

A

Glutamine is converted to glutamate in presynaptic neurons.
Glutamate is used as an excitatory neurotransmitter
Once released, glutamate is eventually reabsorbed by a nearby astrocyte and combined with NH3 from the bllod to be converted back to Glutamine. This is then returned to the presynpatic neuron.

In situations with increased NH3 in the blood, increased amounts of glutamine are created in astrocytes. This acts as an osmotic agent, drawing water into the astrocyte. When the astrocyte is swollen it is no longer able to transfer its glutamine to the presynaptic neuron.

Q

Gaucher Disease

A 
Glucocerebrosidase deficiency
Accumulation of glucocerebroside
Bone dz, lipid laden macrophages, pancytopenia
Autosomal recessive
gaUcher
134
Q

Arginase Deficiency

A

Normally converts Arginine to ornithine and urea.

Causes spastic diplegia, abnormal movements, and growth delay. No/mild hyperammonemia.

135
Q

Huntingtin protein

A

In Huntington dz there is a gain of function which causes increased histone deacetylation, which silences genes necessary for neuron survival

136
Q

AAT

A

AAT is the primary inhibitor of neutrophil and macrophage elastin degradation protein

Results in panacinar empysema
Accelerated by smoking and 2nd hand smoke

137
Q

Gq G protein

A

IP3 and DAG –> PKC

Used by H1, a1, va,M1, and M3 (HAV 1 M&M)

138
Q

Gi G protein

A

Decreases cAMP

Used by M2, a2, D2 (MAD 2)

139
Q

Gs G protein

A

Increases cAMP –>PKA

used by everything besides HAV1 M&M and MAD 2

140
Q

cGMP

A

ANP BNP NO and EDRF activate guanylate cyclase creating cGMP
cGMP increased Protein Kinase G
Protein Kinase G causes vasodilation

141
Q

Receptor Tyrosine Kinases

A

Insulin, IGF-1, EGF, PDGF, FGF

Act on RAS/MAP kinase pathway

142
Q

Nonreceptor tyrosine kinases

A

IL-2, IL-6, prolactin, thrombopoietin, erythropoeitin, GH, GCSF
Acts on the JAK/STAT Pathway

143
Q

alpha 1

A

Mydriasis, vasocontriction

144
Q

alpha 2

A

Decrease NE release, decrease aqueous humor production

145
Q

Beta 1

A

Increase heart rate, increase contractility, increase Renin

146
Q

Beta 2

A

Vasodilation in Skeletal muscles, bronchodilation, increased aqueous humor production

147
Q

M3 sympathetic

A

Sweating, only sympathetic M receptor

148
Q

M3 parasympathetic

A

Miosis, lens accomodation, bronchoconstriction, increased gastric acid, increased salivation, increased parastalsis, bladder contraction

149
Q

M2

A

Decreased HR, decreased contractility

150
Q

H1

A

Increased mucous production, bronchoconstriction, and vasodilation

151
Q

H2

A

Increased HCl secretion

152
Q

V1

A

Vasoconstriction

153
Q

V2

A

Increased aquaporins in collecting tubule –> increased H20 reabsorption

154
Q

GLUT4

A

Transporter found in myocytes and adipose tissue

Responsive to insulin

155
Q

Ornithine shuttle

A

Transport of proteins into mitochondria for urea cycle
