How do anxiolytics work?
Responda
  • 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.

  • That it transmits a slow, dull pain.

Questão 19

Questão
Frequency coding states what?
Responda
  • 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.

Questão 20

Questão
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)
Responda
  • True
  • False

Questão 21

Questão
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?
Responda
  • 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.

Questão
The GATEKEEPER sends out excitatory signals to aid pain signals passing up to the brain.

Responda
  • True
  • False

Questão 27

Image:
96d0a27b-3978-4052-9013-89498f51dfaa (image/png)
Responda
  • 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.
