3 types of vesicle (imms)
lysosome, secretory, transport
3 types of cell surface receptor
ion channel (opens) g protein (activates protein causing ion channel to open) enzyme linked (receptor linked to intracellular enzyme)
clathrin
protein that coats pits and then vesicles, in endocytosis (vesicle then binds to endosome in cell)
cell communication. 3 types
autocrine - same cell
paracrine- nearby
endocrine- into blood
what is a coenzyme
a substance that enhances the action of an enzyme
what unwinds dna from supercoiled-ness
topoisomerase
eg of autosomal dominant autosome recessive sec linked (x)
- huntingtons, polycystic kidney
- cystic fibrosis, sickle cell
- haemophilia, musclular dystrophy
which part of the nasal cavity does each paranasal sinus drain into
frontal- middle meatus
ethmoid- superior and middle meatus
maxillary- middle meatus sphenoid - sphenoethmoidal recess
pharynx constrictor muscles (3 of each)
circular
- superior (oropharynx)
- middle and inferior (laryngopharynx)
longitudinal
- stylopharyngeus
- palatopharyngeus
- salpingopharyngeus
pharynx blood supply
external carotid
carotid sheath=
common carotid artery
internal jugular vein
vagus
2 lobes of thyroid connected by
isthmus
thyroid blood supply
superioir thyroid artery= from external carotid
inferior thyroid artery = from subclavian
physical process of breathing (2)
ribsss
anteroposterior -anterioir part moves forward as well as up (pump handle )
transverse - middle part moves out as well as up (bucket handle)
muscles for active breathing
internal intercostals
pacmajor
sternocleidomastoid
abdominal muscles
trans pulmonary pressure
pressure difference between inside and outside of lungs
SASR
where
stimulated by
effect
whats it picking up
smooth muscle
lung distention
inhibits inspiration (begins expiration)
slow, so for chronic over inspiration
RASR
where
stimulated by
effect
between cells
irritants
bronchodilation
gel and coombs. what immunoglob for each, what kind of reaction. example
- igE. allergic - binds to mast cells that then release histamine and prostaglandins(hayfever)
- igM. immune system against foreign cells (blood transfusion)
- igG. deposits cause inflammation (lupus)
- T cells. learned immune response. (contact dermatitis)
epithelial barrier(3)
physical (blocks entry
chemical (proteases)
biological (endogenous bacteria)
t helper cells
how do they recognise threat
then what do they do
CD4 receptors recognise APCs
cytokines released- these stimulate B cells and T cytoxic
plus immunoglobulins indicate
t cytoxic cells recognise threat how
CD8 receptor recognises pathogen –> perforin released- breaks down cell (lysis (think lysosome))
plus immunoglobulins indicate
myosin structure
2 heavy alpha chains, 4 light beta chains
actin structure
double helix globular protein
tropomyosin structure
double peptide chain
mean arterial pressure equation
CO x TPR
left ventricular filling pressure=
difference between L atrial pressure and L ventricular diastolic pressure
endothelium produces what that controls circulation
endothelin- vasoconstrictor
NO, prostacyclin - vasodilator
hyperaemia =
when
increase in blood flow
- higher metabolic activity
- occlusion
types of aneamia
- acute- bleeding
- iron deficiency -less haemoglobin
- pernicious - B12/ folate deficiency - rbc not produced quickly enough
floor of fourth ventricle=
rhomboid fossa
calvarium=
top part of skull, opposed to skull base
skull sutres (3)
coronal - between frontal and parietal
saggital- between parietal
lambdoid- between parietal and occipital
where do the cranial nerves ARISE FROM
cn1, 2- not from brainstem
cn3,4,- from midbrain
cn 5,6,7,8 - from pons
cn 9.10,11,12 - from medulla
how many bones fused to form coccyx
4
shape of the vertebral foramen and body of cervical, thoracic and lumbar vertebrae
cervical- triangular foramen, oval body
thoracic- circular foramen, heart-shaped body
lumbar- triangular foramen, kidney-shaped body
intermediate muscles of the spine
- names
- role
role of superficial and deep muscles
superior and inferior serratus
rib movement
superficial- shoulder movement
deep-back movement
anterior vs lateral spinothalamic tract
anterior= crude touch, pressure lateral= temp, pain
where does spinothalamic tract synapse
3 orders= 2 synapses
- substantia gelatinosa
- thalamus
anterior vs later corticospinal tract
3 for each
anterior- decussated at medulla, 85%, going to limbs and digits
lateral- decussate at spinal cord, 15%, going to trunk
tectospinal
reticulospinal
rubrospinal
vestibulospinal
- ipsi/contra
- role
tecto= contra, head movement and visual stimuli
reticulo= ipsi, regulates vol movement
rubro- contr, fine movements
vestibulo=ipsi, balance and posture
adrenaline/acetyl choline— symp/para
peripheral
adrenaline= symp
acetyl choline= parasymp
summation types
spatial (multiple neurones)
temporal (multiple impulses from same neuron)
substantia gelatinosa
where nasty shit synapses
it is in posterior horn
opioids action
prevent nociceptive stimuli reaching thalamus by
- inhibits calcium movement (presynaptic)
- k+ release to hyperpolarize membrane
muscle spindle intrafusal fibres innervated by
gamma motor neurons
prevent muscle spindle being slack during contraction- allows optimum stretch detection
Golgi tendon collagen fibres innervated by
afferent fibres
hair cells in organ of corti
1 row in inner
3 rows of outer
mechanoreceptors with protruding sterocilia
cerebellar lobes
anterior
posterior (beyond primary fissure, NOT horizontal fissure)
flocculonodular(sits anterior and superior to inferior part of cerebellum, just below the peduncle-y bit)
cerebellar output=
purkinje fibres
to dentate nucleus
