---|---|---|---|---|
Histocompatibility Protein
this protein in the cell membrane allows for self-identification
|
What are neurotoxicity, nephrotoxicity, ototoxicity, neuromuscular blockade
Four adverse effects of amino glycosides
|
What are Efferent neurons
These neurons carry nerve impulses from CNS to periphery to stimulate muscles or glands
|
What is Barbiturates
This class inhibits the neuronal impulse conduction in the RAS to depress the CNS
|
What are narcotic agonist-antagonists
This class stimulates kappa receptors and also has antagonist effect at mu receptors
|
What is M phase
This phase of the cell is where cell division occurs
|
What are carbapenems
These antibiotics inhibit bacterial cell membrane synthesis
|
What is GABA (Gamma-aminobutyric Acid)
This neurotransmitter inhibits nerve activity and is important in preventing over-excitability or stimulation
|
What is Buspirone
This anxiolytic is used c/out the sedation effects of benzodiazepines
|
What is pentazocine
narcotic agonist-antagonist prototype
|
What is selective toxicity
This is the ability to suppress or kill an infecting microbe without injury to the host
|
What are fluoroquinolones
These antibiotics can result in photosensitivity and are potentiated by caffeine
|
What is the hindbrain
The Reticular activation system (RAS) is located in which region of the brain?
|
What are barbiturates
used for sedation, hypnosis, anesthesia, coma, seizures, insomnia
|
What are endogenous opioids, serotonin, norepinephrine, GABA
Name two of the substances that are released into nerve synapses to inhibit pain response
|
What is vancomycin
The drug of choice for treating MRSA
|
What is fluconazole
This anti-invective inhibitssynthesis of ergosterol cell membrane
|
What is the limbic system
High levels of neurotransmitters are found in this system
|
What is to potentiate GABA, resulting in CNS depression
The action of benzodiazepines
|
What is Gate-Control Theory of Pain
This theory suggests that several factors such as learned experiences and cultural expectations can activate the nerves associated with pain
|
What is MIC
The lowest concentration of an antibiotic needed to prevent growth of microbe at site of infection
|
What are antifungal agents
These types of agents are associated with hepatic and Renal dysfunction
|
What is 31 pairs
The spinal cord is made up of how many pairs of nerves?
|
What are anxiolytics, sedative, hypnotics, minor tranquilizers
The four types of anxiolytic and Hypnotic agents
|
What are opioid receptors
These receptors are located in the CNS, nerves of the periphery and cells in the GI tract
