| Kimara Kavanagh #258 pg. 347 Which of the following analgesic adjuncts works to block NK-1 receptors and subsequent activation of substance P? a. gabapentin b. amantadine c. maropitant d. bisphosphonates | c. maropitant (Cerenia) "The biological effects of substance P in the CNS, namely regulation of affective behavior and emesis in the brain and nociception in the spinal cord, are mediated by its binding to the NK1 receptor" (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12562137). Maropitant is an NK-1 receptor antagonist and it works to block NK-1 receptors and subsequent activation of substance P. Bisphosphonates are the drug class used for patients with osteosarcoma, which acts by preventing loss of bone mass. Gabapentin and amantadine both function to suppress neuropathic pain and to prevent the wind-up phenomenon that leads to central sensitization and allodynia.

| Michelle Cashpal #8 p 329 Which of the following describes "wind up"? a.

The perceived increase in pain intensity with time when a given painful stimulus is delivered repeatedly in excess of a critical rate. | d. The perceived increase in pain intensity with time when a given painful stimulus is delivered repeatedly in excess of a critical rate Wind up is when the neurons of the spinothalamic tract of the spinal cord are stimulated repeatedly, they apparently become sensitized and discharge at a much lower threshold.
