Exam 1 Flashcards
Primary Anion of ECF?
Chloride (Cl-)
Drug that Inhibits COX1?
Aspirin; watch for bleeding from inhibition of TXA2 (Thrombane)
Phosphatidylserine (cytosolic)
Immune Marker; uses Flippase to send “serine” back into the cell, if it goes outside cell wall (needs ATP to accomplish this); if cell is dying/no energy, then “serine” stays outside the wall, causing an immune response (attacks and destroys whole cell); bad if the cell is healthy
What is the constant to multiply osmo by to get your total osmotic pressure?
19.3 mmHg
What is driving force?
ion is most motivated to get into cell; based off concentration gradient
Homeostasis: Energy
work, heat, potential energy
How Many Na+ molecules moved to ECF via pump?
3 Na+ molecules
Feedback in Action
SEE Compensated/Decompensated Shock
Proteins in the Cell
Passage for material to get thru cell wall; stringed AA together to get task completed; functional and structural
Na/Glucose Pump (SGLT)
Speeds up the process of getting glucose into the cell by binding it with Na+; Secondary active transport; found in Kidney
Cell Membrane
In vs Out of cell; Phospholipid Bilayer; Head = hydrophilic, Tail = hydrophobic
How to calculate Osmotic Pressure?
(280 mOsm/1L) x (19.3 mmHg) = 5400 mmHg [per chart in Lec 1]
How much blood can body lose? How much can’t it afford to lose?
20% of blood can be lost; 40% cannot = death/vicious cycle
What is conductance?
The ease @ which ions get across the cell well
Resting Membrane Potential Voltage?
-80 mV
Concentration of ICF Na and Ca, if NaK ATPase pump stops working?
Increased Na and Ca, as they cannot leave the cell via NCX (no energy since 2nd degree active transport)
What is an enzyme?
“-ase”; protein that breaks down material; speed up chemical process
Negative Feedback
Change is (-) to stimuli; change is sensed by sensors, eliciting response; Thermostat Ex: Temp increased, AC kicks on to decrease
Nucleus
Center/Brain of cell; contains DNA; 2x phosphobilayer for protection
Does depolarizing a cell make it more negative or positive?
Cell is more (+) charge; think of Na+ in action potential
Which drug class affects the action potential when it is in limbo?
“-caine”; lido, bupiv, ropiv
Normal Body Temp - per lecture
37 degrees celcius
How many cells in body? How many RBC? How often do RBC get replaced? - per lecture
35 trillion; 25 trillion; 90-120 days
Who coined the term Homeostasis?
Walter Cannon
What is Osmolality?
Quantity dissolved in 1 Kg of H2O; impractical but more accurate; impractical b/c technically solute dissolved in 1 Kg/blood, so when you draw someones blood, going to get other stuff besides pure blood
Steady State vs Equilibrium?
SS: contributes to homeostasis; refers to constant relative sustained differences (if Na is 140 ECF, Na stays 14 ICF - body keeps it constant)
Equilibrium: Equalizes the internal w external environment; can be BAD (if body temp inside was same as outside, you die)
Compensated Shock
(-) FB system works well! Body is able to return back to homeostasis
Formula for Nernst Potential?
+- 61 x log (ICF/ECF)
Nernst of Cl-?
NEED GIVEN CONCENTRATION
Sphingomyelin
precursor to myelin in nervous system
Primary Active Transport (1st degree)
Directly uses ATP
Granulated Endoplasmic Reticulum
Granulated b/c ribosomes on surface give “rough” appearance; create protein in the cells; stores Ca+
Definition of Tissues
Group of cells
How Proteins are created
DNA -> DNA Transcript-> RNA-> RNA outside nucleus-> Ribosomes (link AA to create protein)-> cytosol (part of cytoplasm)
Hyperpolarized
more polar; Cell is more (-) charge; Na+ channel is closing and K+ channel is opening slowly
Fraction of ICF/L in 100 kg man?
40L
% water of body weight in Kg for healthy 100 kg man?
60L
Definition of Homeostasis
Body’s tendency to maintain stabilized internal environment, despite internal/external factors
Fraction of ECF/L in 80 kg man?
16L
What is Osmotic Pressure?
Physical pressure required to prevent osmosis from occurring through a semipermeable membrane into an osmotic-active solution; in mmHg
What does AVP stand for?
Arginine Vasopressin
Cell Membrane vs Capillary Membrane?
Cell Membrane: Very difficult to pass; to pass, must have no charge and possibly a carrier
Capillary Membrane: allows ions to pass into CV system/plasma; HARD for proteins to leave CV system, hence increased protein in Plasma vs Interstitial fluid
What is a concentration gradient?
High–>low concentration; Ex: Na ECF 140–> ICF 14; Na wants to go IN the cell! REQUIRES ENERGY TO GO AGAINST
Primary Buffer of ECF?
HCO3
What % of energy in the cell used is from Na+K+ ATPase pump?
70%
Fraction of Extracellular Fluid and how many L in 70 kg man?
1/3 ECF, 14L
When to use “-“ in Nernst Potential?
Use “-“ when Cation; Na+, K+, Ca++
“Phosphatidyl” in Lungs?
assemble to make surfactant within the lung (important for breaking surface tension); all known lung diseases have issues with surfactant
K+ vs Na+ Resting State Cell Permeability?
K+ is 10x more permeable than Na+ at a rested state; (10:1)
Sex Hormones Created from Cholesterol?
Estradiol, Testosterone,Progesterone, Androstenedione
Insoluble Compounds
Cholesterol, steroid hormones, lipids, NO2, Propofol
Initiation of Translation Occurs @ which location?
Cytosol
Active Transport
REQUIRES ENERGY to get across chemical gradient; 1st Degree and 2nd Degree; (Think Ca+ ECF to ICF is 10,000:1, so to get Ca+ to ICF, must USE ENERGY)
What is Nernst Potential?
The voltage that will prevent ions from diffusing down their concentration gradient
What happens to the TBW of a pt if they are obese?
less water because more fat
Is Na+ Voltage Gate fast or slow?
Fast! Open and close

adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the energy currency of the cell?
Mitochondria

What is Vmax?
max speed for conformational change to occur
Peroxisome
Destroy materials in cell via oxidation; Liver has an increased concentration; breaks down ethanol

Cholesterol Metabolites
Estradiol, Testosterone, Aldosterone, Cortisol, Androstenedione, Progesterone
If Hyperkalemic, do ions move faster or slower out of the cell?
Slower! The gradient is smaller, so the K+ does not speed out of the cell
Unit 1 Q2: Most cells, except for fat cells, are composed mainly of
Water
