Q

Process of pain transmission (steps 1-4)

A

1 nociceptive action potential ( C and A fibres) reaches presynaptic dorsal horn

2 C and A fibres release pro nociceptive (excitatory NT) into synaptic cleft

3 C fibres release GLUTAMATE activating post-synaptic AMPA receptors

4 causing SP then NK1 receptor activation / CGRP pathways

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs
45
ibuprofen mechanism
non-selective inhibitor of COX1/2 | is a competitive inhibitor of the AA for COX domain involved in prostanoid production
46

48
rofecoxib
selective COX 2 inhibitor T = osteoarthritis and pain been withdrawn from market (MI / stroke risk)
49
aspirin
irreversible inhibition of COX1/2 T = fever / pain / aches / excessive clotting (prevention) SE = indigestion / nosebleeds DT = asthma / stomach ulcer / below 16 (REYES DISEASE) / haemophilia / kidney or liver problems / heart failure / thyroid problems

54
inflammation function
eliminates cause of cell injury clears out necrotic cells initiates tissue repair
55
