Q

NAD+ and FAD

A

Electron carriers

They are reduced to NADH and FADH2

Nad -
Niacin (b3) ring and dehydrogenase enzyme which removes 2 hydrogens one as hydride h- a hydrogen with 2 electrons and a hydrogen cation H+ (no electrons) the hydride bonds to NAD and the cation is released

Fad+ 
Riboflavin 
Dehydrogenase removes two hydrogens 
Each a proton with one electron 
They both bind to FAD creating FADH2 

Both processes are reverse able

Q

Electron transport chain (ETC)

Overview

A

Occurs on the inner membrane of the mitochondria

Takes the NADH And FADH2 which have energy form ch bounds and releases them in order to synthesize ATP

Net yields
NADH- moves 10 h+
FADH2 moves 6 h+

NADH pases 2 electrons to complex 1 which pumps 4 H+ from matrix to intermembrane space

Uniquinone (q) moves electrons to complex 3

FADH passes 2 electrons to complex 2 (doesn’t move h+) but does pass electrons to q

Q sends electrons to complex 3

Once in complex 3 it will pump 4+ hydrogens from matrix to intermembrane space

They then move to cyte c and are carried to complex 4

Once in 4 it will then pump 2 H+ to Intermembrane space

Then o2 finally accepts the electrons creating water

25
Beta oxidation
Breakdown of a fatty acid into 2 carbon acetyl groups and a coenzyme A Process continues for every 2 carbons Each time This 2 carbons are broken off NADH and FADH2 are generated Each time one acetyl CoA goes through krebs 3NADH fAD ATP Gives more atp per gram then glucose Occurs in matrix
26
Lipogenesis
The process of making new fat Can be synthesized by combining acetyl groups Beta oxidation in reverse Occurs in cytoplasm New fatty acids are stored throughout the body for long term storage
27
Ketoacidosis
Complication when the body is no long metabolizing sugar Cause Dieting Fasting *type 1 diabetes (cells will mostly metabolize fat) The citric acid cycle has a limit When there is to much acetyl CoA Excess ACetyl CoA combine to form 4 carbon Ketones which make the breath smell like fruity alcohol Which lowers blood ph making it more acidic
28
Gluconeogenisis and protien metabolism
Protiens are broken down into individual amino acids Some amino acids can enter at different parts of the pathways depending on there r groups Best choice for making new glucose Like reverse glycolysis Happens in the liver Stimulated when blood sugar is too low
29
Upper motor neurons
Found in the cerebral cortex where planning and initiation and coordination of movement occur Which then articulate with LMN
30
Lower motor neurons
In the cranial nerve or in anterior horn of the spinal chord Which then leave the cns and synapse with a muscle at a neuromuscular junction (Somatic nervous system) all nerves involved in voluntary movement Voluntary is top down Reflexes come from bottom up
31
Motor units
A nerve and all the muscle fibers it inervates Thigh muscles have thousands of fibers I one unit Fingers and eye muscles have 3to 5 Muscle fibers are all or nothing When more fibers contract in a motor unit to increase strength this is called recruitment
32
Voluntary movement
Begins in the brain(cerebral cortex, basal nuclei, and cerebellum) ``` 1 planning (frontal lobe) 2 iniation (premotor area) 3 execution (stimulation of upper motor neurons in motor cortex) ``` The first two steps occur in the cerebral cortex and the last step follow the signal from the cns to PNS to muscle Idea (prefrontal area) and the organizing and planning movement in (premotor area) In the precentral gyris which stimulates the movement in the motor cortex the signal is then sent to lower motor units in the cranial nerve nuclei or anterior horn and sent out to muscle Aka descending tracts
33
Lateral corticospinal tract
Largest descending tract UMN cross from right side in the brain to the left side in the spinal chord Left side controls right movement This crossover is aka decussation which occurs in the medullary pyramids in the brainstem
34
Agonist muscle
Performs desired movement
35
Antagonist muscle
Opposes desired movement | Good for controlling and regulating movement speed and strength
36
Propiceptors
Are sencesors that relay information about the position of our body and extremities at any given moment Direction and rate at which we are moving We also intake input from eyes and ears to regulate movement
37
Reflex
Mechanism where the body is able to sense a change and respond appropriately Para maintain homeostasis Are autonomic and unconsciously ``` Receptor Afferent sensory neuron Control center Efferent motor unit Effector ```
38
Mechanoreceptor
Sensory input that responds to mechanical pressure or distortion Touch Pressure Sound waves Motion
39
Chemoreceptors
Detects a certain chemical stimuli Ex co2 by receptors in carotid artery which then activated breathing changes Taste and smell
40
Thermoreceptors
Respond to temperature
41
Photoreceptors
In the cells of the retina and respond to light which is converted into vision
42
Nociceptors
Detach damage in tissue or the threat of damage in a tissue Perceived as pain
43
Monosynaptic
Are simple reflexes that involve a single synapse between two neurons
44
Polysynaaptic
Two or more synapses in the more complex reflex
45
Somatic reflexes
Stretch Golgi tendon And withdraw All are based in spinal chord but can be influenced by upper neuron functioning Involve propiceptors Which are located on our Muscles
46
Stretch reflex
Muscle spindles (propoceptors muscle length) which are intrafusal fibers that run parallel with contractile fibers which are called extrafusal fibers Occur in highest density near tendons Intrafusal fibers are only capable of contraction at tapered ends Don’t contribute to net contraction where they connect with gama neurons Sensory neurons Intervate the center non contractile región which sense changes in length If pulled will stimulate an alpha motor neuron (at the anterior horn) that contracts the muscle so it doesn’t stretch to far Tapered ends contract as the rest of the muscle contracts keeping the muscle spindle at baseline which maintains sensitivity Aka alpha gama co activation Recipricle inhibition also occurs and the antagonist muscle is relaxed which prevents injury
47
Golgi tendon organ or GTO
Inhibitory Results in the opposite as a muscle spindle Prevents over contraction and tendons from damage Encapsulated nerve endings That are Inter woven in the collegen fibers of the tendon Monitor tension rather then length Sends signals Inter neurons and then inhibitory neurons which inhibit alpha motor neurons which cause the muscle to relax Brain can override in life or death senarios but can lead to damage
48
Withdrawal reflex
Avoid pain and tissue damage Nociceptors are stimulated by damage which activate lower motor neurons then stimulate the contraction to remove or withdraw ourselves from danger Generally takes place as flexor muscles are stimulated to contract Reciprocal inhibition also takes place
49
Crossed extensor reflex
This reflex can work in conjunction with withdrawal reflex. The signal also crosses over to the other side of the body to strengthen the opposite limb to account for the nos relaxed original limb.
50
Autonomic nervous system
Smooth Cardiac And glands Sympathetic and parasympathetic
51
Sympathetic Ns | Overview
``` Creates fight or flight response Increase heart rate Hyperventilation Shut down of digestion Increased bp ``` Mydriadis- pupil dilation And increased blood flow to heart and skel muscles Shorter pregang Longer post gang Pregang ACh Post gang NE (except sweat glands and some blood vessels ACH )
52
Parasympathetic NS
Rest and digest Decreased heart rate Decrease bp Miosis or the constrion of the pupil Increased digestion Increased urination SlUD ``` Salivation lacrimation(tears) urinate defecation Most secretions of the body increase ``` Longer pregang Shorter postgang Pre and post gang ACH
53
Is the ANS necesita for organs to function
No they can contract on their own But ans helps regulate them! Speed up or slowdown to maintain homeostasis
54
Dual automatic innervation
Parasympathetic and sympathetic nerves inervate the same muscle and oppose one another to maintain homeostasis
55
ANS organization | Messaging ssystem
Normally two neurons Have both preganglionic and post ganglionic neurons Preganglyonic is Myelinated and post is not Cell bodies of pre gang are located in the cns And axon terminals are located in the autonomic ganglia The synapse between post gang and effector are aka neuroeffector synapse or neuroeffector
56
Sympathetic chain ganglia
Located near the column of spine | Sympathetic
57
Collateral ganglia
Located further away from the spine Aka celiac Superior mesenteric and inferior Mesenteric
58
Terminal ganglia
Parasympathetic | Located very near the effector organ
59
Post gang effector synapse
Swellings called varicosities rather then axon terminals They secrete neurotransmitters aross synapse to effector organ
60
Sympathetic division (SNS)
Cell bodies of pregang located from T1 to L2/3ish on the lateral horn of spinal Column Go down ventral root Enter spinal nerve Then exit via white ramus Communicans (myelinated axons) And enter sympathetic chain gang (1)simple They then cross over to post gang and leave the chain gang through gray ramus communicans (un myelinated axons) and enter spinal nerve which takes them to effector 2 Instead of rendering a spinal nerve it enters a sympathetic nerve instead and travels to thoracic cavity 3 leaves chain gang without synapse and forms a spachnic nerve that then goes to collateral ganglia They then synapse and post gang goes to organs and glands and vessels in abdominal pelvic cavity 4 similar to splanchnic nerves but instead of synapse it travels straight through collateral ganglia and extend to thr medulla of adrenal gland where they produce epinephrine and norepinephrine The medullar cells function as post synaptic and 80% release epi and 20% nor epi directly in blood stream
61
Spinal nerve and post gang symp
8% of 31 pairs of spinal nerves are post gang symp ``` The can innervate effectors in the skin Irises lens Nasal mucous membranes Salivary glands Heart Lungs Stomach Intestines Adrenyl glands Urinary bladder ```
62
PNS pathways
Cranial area SacrAl área Cranial : pre gang coming from brain are in brain stem and make up part of cell bodies Cranial nerve 3 pupil size and shape of lens Cranial nerve 7 which controls mucus membranes, lacrimal and salivary glands 9 which controls parotid salivary glands And 10 Vegus thoracic cavity organs and upper abdominal (75-80%) of of all parasympathetic fibers are found in the Vegas nerve Sacral(lateral horn of spinal chord) axons go to Pelvic splanchnic nerves and then extend to terminal ganglia located near the effector Lower half of intestines Organs of reproductive system And renal systems
63
The enteric nervous system
ENS Digestive tract from esophagus to the Colon Myenteric plexus Submucosal plexus Which receive preganglionic fibers from the parasympathetic division and post ganglionic from sympathetic division Is capable of working independently of the cns by way of local reflexes Enzyme secretions and purpoltion of food Provides synchronized peristaltic movements
64
Enteric pathway
As food enters the digestive tract it stretched receptors in the gut which send action potential sown afferent enteric sensory neurons. These neurons synapse with enteric interneurons which activate enteric motor neurons which innervate glands and smooth muscle
65
Sympathetic division chemical and receptors
Pregang releases ACh which binds to nicatinic receptor post gang and then at termial of post gang releases NE which binds to ADREnErgic receptors (A12B123) Exception is sweat glands where ACh is released by post neuron and binds to muscarinic receptors(M3) Exception 2 adrenal glands Go directly to gland no synapse and activates cell. With ACH and N2 receptors which causes the call to release epi and nor epi into the blood stream
66
Sympathetic division pathway and chemical receptors
Pregang ACh that binds to nicotinic receptors (N2) then post gang releases ACh again but it binds with muscarinic M12345
67
Receptors
Nicotinic are found on all post gang receptors both para and symp Respond to ACh and become excited Muscarinic are found on all para effector cells and some sweat symp cells Respond to ACh which may be excite or inhibit Adregenic receptors are located on most symp cells respond to NE and can be both excited or inhibited
68
Neurotransmitters of ans
Cholinergic neurons produce ACh and store it in end terminals (Pre of symp and para)(post para and for some reproductive blood vessels and sweat glands of symp) ``` Adrigenoc (post neuron of symp) Produces catecholamines (nor epi and dope) ``` Even is usual inhibitory Odd is excititory Epi likes B2 and NE likes alpha 1
69
Agonist vs antagonist drugs
Agonist activates and amplifies Antagonist binds and prevents or inhibits
70
Eyes
Outer iris smooth muscles controls size of pupil “dialaters” have alpha 1 receptores Cause myrdriasis when contract which is symp The inner sphincter puppille controls how much light enters the eye Para and have m3 receptors cause miosis Phenylephrine is an alpha 1 agonist And atropine is a muscarinic antagonist Both are mydriatics and are taken by eye drops Lens focuses the image (cillary muscles help control shape of lense for shar focus ) flat fat domed close Para and symp Beta 2 cause flatter lens Muscarinic receptors make more domed lens Atropine can also blurr vision for near objects (cycloplegia) Cillary muscles also cause tension in trabecular network which allows for the opening of pores and the out glow of aqueous humor into the canal of Schlemm and and back into circulation (M) Pilocarpine muscalinc agonist can treat elevated Intraocular pressure by letting the fluid flow out Beta 1 stimulation on cillary body increase production of aqueous humor Beta1 agonist betaxolol are also used to treat glaucoma (inter eye pressure)
71
Blood vessels
Alpha 1 receptors on smooth muscle cells Activation increases ca which causes the muscle to contract which narrows the artery and and reduces blood flow Arteries of certain organs in musing skeletal or cardiac muscle have beta 2 receptors In addition to alpha 1. B2 are actives by epi which causes relaxation of smooth muscle and vasodilation Depending on the ratio of alpha and beta and concentration of epi in blood stream Prazosin is alpha 1 antagonist used to treat high bp The vast majority of blood vessels are not involved with parasympathetic response
72
Sweat glands
Only innervated by symp Stimulated by muscarinic receptors are activated by stress are located on the soles palms genitalia and armpits and have a1 receptors Terazosin is another alpha 1 antagonist that can treat excessive sweating
73
Heart
Symp and release of catecholamines. From adrenal glands increase heart rate due to high concentration of beta 1 receptors Atenolol is a beta 1 agonist and can treat high bp Decrease heart rate Parasympathetic M or muscualinic agonist have opposite effect Atropine a músculinic antagonist is used in emergency Med to start the heart back up after cardiac arrrest Which blocks parasympathetic activity
74
Lungs
Activation of muscarinic receptors on smooth muscle lining result in the constriction of the air way While beta activatated by circulated epinephrine causes the airway to open up) Beta 2 is only activated by circulating epi and not by norepinephrine from post gang Ipratropium muscarinic antagonist Alburterol is beta 2 agonist Both are administered via enhaler
75
Stomach and intestines
Para are much more extensive then symp Para includes secretion of glands mixing and digesting food, and movement down the tract. Many muscarinic and fewer alpha 1 and beta 2 are located in the smooth muscle Activation of muscarinic and blocking of alpha and beta causes better digestion Bethanechol offers a jumó start to normal gut motility and is a muscarinic agonist
76
Alpha 1 B3 B1
Primarily found on blood vessels Beta 3 (fat cells) Beta 1 everything else
