Frage 5

Frage
How do anxiolytics work?
Antworten
  • They bind to a different site to GABA and increase the affinity of the receptor for GABA, causing increased inhibition and the user to feel drowsy.
  • They inhibit the neurotransmission at a synaptic junction which creates fewer excitatory signals in the post-synaptic membrane.

Frage 6

Frage

Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 7

Frage
Depression is thought to be caused by monoaminergic synaptic hyperactivity.

  • True
  • False

Frage 8

Frage
What do MAOI's do?
Antworten
  • Inhibit the reuptake of serotonin and noradrenaline into the pre-synaptic knob.
  • Inhibit the monoamine oxidase enzyme that breaks down serotonin and noradrenaline neurotransmitters.

Frage 9

Frage
What do TCA and SSRI's do?
Antworten
  • They inhibit the re-uptake of serotonin and noradrenaline from the synaptic cleft.
  • They inhibit monoamine oxidase which breaks serotonin and noradrenaline down.

Frage 10

Frage
TCA's are much more selective than SSRI's at blocking serotonin rather than noradrenaline at monoaminergic synapses.
Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 11

Frage

Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 12

Frage

Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 13

Frage
Why can anti-psychotics sometimes cause parkinsonian?
Antworten
  • Anti-psychotics reduce the activity at dopaminergic synapses. This can be so extreme that motor function is impaired and parkinson like symptoms are experienced.
  • Anti-psychotics increase the activity at dopaminergic synapses. This can be so extreme that motor function is impaired and parkinson like symptoms are experienced.
  • Anti-psychotics reduce the activity at monoaminergic synapses. This can be so extreme that motor function is impaired and parkinson like symptoms are experienced.
  • Anti-psychotics increase the activity at monoaminergic synapses. This can be so extreme that motor function is impaired and parkinson like symptoms are experienced.

  • That it transmits a slow, dull pain.

Frage 19

Frage
Frequency coding states what?
Antworten
  • The greater the pain stimulus is, the higher the frequency of action potentials fired from the periphery to the CNS.
  • The lower the pain stimulus is, the higher the frequency of action potentials fired from the periphery to the CNS.

Frage 20

Frage
The laminar order in which primary sensory neurones synapse in the spinal cord means that each "sheet" in the spinal cord receives input from a particular part of the body (somatotopic)
Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 21

Frage
When a painful stimulus is detected and an action potential is propagated to the spinal cord, how is the pain then transmitted up to the brain?
Antworten
  • Excitatory neurotransmitters are released from the a-delta/c fibre and this causes pain signals to be carried to the brain.
  • Excitatory neurotransmitter are released from the a-delta/c fibre which stimulate an inhibitory interneurone to inhibit the GATEKEEPER. This inhibits the inhibitory GATEKEEPER and weakens the inhibition that the GATEKEEPER provides to the ascending pain signal. This allows pain signals to carry up to the brain.

Frage 22

Frage
Rubbing your knee activates a-beta mechanoreceptor fibres which cause excitatory neurotransmitter release to the GATEKEEPER which then releases more inhibitory signals to block pain signals going to the brain.
Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 23

Frage
The GATEKEEPER sends out excitatory signals to aid pain signals passing up to the brain.
Antworten
  • True

Frage 25

Frage
Where is pain localised?
Antworten
  • The cortex
  • Subcortically (before the cortex)

Frage 26

Frage
The emotional (psychogenic) element of pain means that it is not just a single part of the brain that takes part in pain signal processing, but many different regions that co-ordinate together.
Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 27

Frage
Descending pathways that release endogenous opioids act where?
Antworten

Image:

Antworten
  • Binding of Substance P and Glutamate activate the NK-1 and AMPA receptors respectively. This causes sufficient depolarisation in order to repel the magnesium dependent block out of the VG Ca2+ channel. Calcium entry causes 2ndry messenger activation and increased neurone responsiveness. This increases the rate of AP firing and explains why pain is more intense in secondary hyperalgesia.
