difficult midterm stuff dump Flashcards
aware of sensory info
sensation
understand sensory info
perception
law of specific energies
a given sensory receptor is specific for each modality
sensory unit
one afferent + all sensory receptors
change in stimuli to electrical conduction
transduction
where is the olfactor cortex
temporal lobe
nociceptors are part of ______ sensation
somatic or visceral
somatic
ASIC
acid sensing ion channels
pericardial layers of heart
fibrous pericardium
serous pericardium
serous pericardium layers
outer parietal layer
(pericardial space inbetween)
inner visceral layer (endothelium)
layers of heart wall
endothelium
myocardium
epithelium
layers of dura
periosteal dura
(dural sinuses)
meningeal dura
what type of afferent is the mechanical nociceptor
A delta
what type of afferent is the temperature nociceptor
A delta
what type of afferent is the polymodal nociceptor
C
first pain activates __ afferents that release ___ in the ______ in synapse with 2nd order neurons
A delta
glu
dorsal horn
which has smaller receptive fields, fast or slow pain
fast
ventrolateral spinothalamic pathway is for what modalities
nociception and temperature
ventrolateral spinothalamic pathway
synapse in dorsal horn- cross to anterolateral column - ascends in anterolateral column- synapses at thalamus- synapses at primary somatosensory cortex
referred pain is based on
convergence projection theory
sub P receptor
NK1
what peptides contribute to central sensitization
sub P and CGRP
NOS and PGE2 are what kind of agents
paracrine
3 effects of sub P and bradykinin on central senstization
phosphorylation
Ca2+ release
transcriptional effects
phosphorylation effects on central sensitization
- AMPA and NMDA more sensitive + time open longer
- AMPA let in Ca2+
- AMPA insertion
Ca2+ release effects on central sensitization
- NOS = paracrine = NO = Glu release increase
2. COX2 = PGE2 = paracrine = increased Glu release
transcription effects on central sensitization
- increased transcription of AMPA receptors
2. increased synthesis of COX2, NK1, and other proanalgesic proteins
