Neurotransmitters and Neuropharmacology (Ch 4)

        Help!  

Question
Answer
show Neurotransmitter based on modifications of a single amino acid nucleus. (acetylcholine,serotonin, dopamine)  
🗑
show A neurotransmitter that is itself an amino acid (GABA, glycine, glutamate)  
🗑
show A neurotransmitter consisting of a short chain of amino acids  
🗑
show A soluble gas that is produced and released by a neuron to alter the functioning of another neuron  
🗑
Ionotropic Receptor (fast)   show
🗑
show A receptor protein that does not contain an ion channel but may when activated use a G protein system to open a nearby ion channel  
🗑
Ligand   show
🗑
show A molecule that binds to a receptor molecule and initiates a response  
🗑
Antagonist   show
🗑
Inverse Antagonist   show
🗑
show Produced inside the body  
🗑
Exogenous Ligands   show
🗑
show The appearance of more than one neurotransmitter in a given presynaptic terminal  
🗑
show Referring to cells that use ACh as their synaptic transmitter  
🗑
show Referring to cholinergic receptors that respond to nicotine AND ACh  
🗑
show Referring to cholinergic receptors that respond to mucsarine AND ACh  
🗑
show Catecholamines, indoleamines, dopamine, norepinephrine, serotonin  
🗑
show The property by which neurons die when overstimulated  
🗑
show A neurotransmitter that diffuses from the postsynaptic neuron to the presynaptic neuron  
🗑
Affinity   show
🗑
Efficacy/intrinsic activity   show
🗑
Partial Agonist/Partial Antagonist   show
🗑
show A portion of a receptor that when bound by a compound alters the receptors response to it's transmitter. Binds to a site different than the transmitter site  
🗑
Metabolic tolerance   show
🗑
Functional tolerance   show
🗑
Cross tolerance   show
🗑
show A process in which the body shows an enhanced response to a given drug after repeated doses  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
