THC | show 🗑
|
||||
show | decreases pressure within the eyes in patients with glaucoma, and reduces the symptoms of certain motor disorders
🗑
|
||||
show | stimulates cannabinoid receptors located in specific regions of the brain.
🗑
|
||||
show | indirect agonist for the GABA(A) receptor
reduce anxiety, promote sleep, reduce muscle seizure activity, produce muscle relaxation

🗑
|
||||
Acetylcholinergic neurons | show 🗑
|
||||
Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) | show 🗑
|
||||
show | Botulinum toxin (Botox) - antagonist - prevents release by terminal buttons
Black Widow spider venom - agonist - poison triggers release of ACh

🗑
|
||||
show | blocks nicotinic receptors
🗑
|
||||
show | produces both excitatory and inhibitory postsynaptic potentials (based on receptor type)
🗑
|
||||
show | agonist- block the reuptake of dopamine
🗑
|
||||
show | antagonist-blocks dopamine D2 receptors-reduces symptoms of schizophrenia
🗑
|
||||
show | agonist- causes the release of more dopamine and NE into the synapse
🗑
|

||||
caffeine | show 🗑
|
||||
adenosine | show 🗑
|
||||
Fluoxetine (Prozac) | show 🗑
|
||||
show | (ex. caffeine and adenosine)produce inhibitory postsynaptic potentials;
generally inhibitory effects on behavior

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.
