Q

what are allogens

A

Algogens are substances that can induce pain when they come into contact with tissues in the body. Some examples of algogens include capsaicin, which is found in spicy foods, and acetic acid, which is found in vinegar. These substances can activate pain receptors in the body, leading to the sensation of pain.

Q

central terminal of primary sensory neuron; pregabalin

A

pregabaline blocks voltage gated calcium channel which means that it will block the release of glutamate because no ca+ means no fusion of the bubbles

38
Q

true or false; pregabalin and gabapentin are antidepressants and how do they work

A

false they are anticonvulsants
they reduce seizures by blocking ay subunit of Ca+ channels

39
Q

how old is opium

A

we have clay tablets dating back to 5000bc that reference it as the joy plant

40
Q

true or false: heroin is 100% synthetic

A

false: it is semi synthetic

41
Q

what is the definition of an opiate

A

They are derived from the opium poppy plant or synthetically produced to mimic the effects of natural opioids. Opiates work by binding to opioid receptors in the brain and spinal cord, which can result in pain relief, sedation, and a sense of euphoria.

42
Q

what are the three main classes of opiates

A

-agonists
-mixed abonis-antiagonist(buprenorphine, nalbuphine)
-antagonis ex: naloxone and naltrexone

43
Q

what are some some example of strong opiate agonists

A

morphine
methadone
meperidine

44
Q

what are some examples of moderate opioid agonist

A

codeine
oxycodone

45
Q

what are some examples of weak opioid agonist

A

propoxyphene and tramadol

46
Q

what exactly does strong/weak of the opioid refer to

A

the potency of the drug so like how much mg do I need to get the effects

47
Q

descending modulation of pain: stimulation produced analgesia: what was the experiment you can do

A

you can stimulate a part opf a rats brain so that it is analgesic

48
Q

descending modulation of pain: stimulation produced analgesia: what parts of the brain will cause SPA?

A

PVG
grey matter surrounding ventricules in mid brain

49
Q

which drug will stop SPA

A

naloxone since it blocks morphine

50
Q

what can cause SPA

A

morphine and electrical stimulation

51
Q

who found opioid receptors

A

pert and snyder in 1973

52
Q

who found endogenous opioids like enkephalin

A

hughes and kosterlitz

53
Q

descending modulation of pain: stress induced analgesioa

A

it is when your body is so stressed that it produces analgesia

54
Q

which sport causes the most SIA

A

track

55
Q

can naloxone block SIA

A

true

56
Q

can the body also enhance pain?

A

yeah it can, it is called SIH: stress induced hyperalgesia

57
Q

descending inhibition can become descending facilitation if:

A

-stress is mild
-stress is chronic
-after injury
-after prolonged exposure to opioids

58
Q

what are the opioid receptors

A

-mu (u)
-delta(weird g)
-kappa (k)

59
Q

which type of receptors are the opioid receptors

A

gpcr

60
Q

what is the antagonist of the u receptor

A

naloxone

61
Q

what is the main opioid receptor

A

u

62
Q

true or false: opioid receptors are in the brain

A

false: they are everywhere

63
Q

what is the main amino acid sequence of 3 genes endogenous

A

-POMC, PENK and PDYN
tyr gly gly phe

64
Q

true or false: all endogenous opioids amino sequence starts with tyr gly gly phe

A

false there are some genes that code for endomorphin 1-2 they code for tyr pro trp phe and try pro phe phe

65
Q

pomp encodes for and binds to

A

b endorphin u>g
-mu (u)
-delta(weird g)
-kappa (k)

66
Q

penk encodes for and binds to:

A

leu enkephalin and met enkephalin
binds to g>u

67
Q

pdyn encodes for and binds to:

A

dynorphin A and binds do kappa

68
Q

what are on and off cells?

A

they are cells that are turned on when there is pain or cells that are turned off when there is pain

69
Q

does acupuncture works

A

we dunno but we know that acuelectrivity works since it can get blocked by naloxone

70
Q

do antidepressants work for pain?

A

yeah they do
