GABA transporter
|
GAT primary way GABA is terminated
|
|
metabolite of GABA
|
GHB (gamma hydroxybutyrate
|
|
GABA metabolized by
|
GABA transaminase then semialdehyde dehydrogenase
|
|
GABAa receptor
|
ligand gated chlorine channel
ionotrophic 2 molec of GABA with 1 gamma subunit for benzodiazepines let chlorine in |
|
GABAb receptors
|
GPCR uses Gi. heterodimer of R1 and R2
|
|
glycine terminated by
|
Reuptake
|
|
GABA created from
|
Glutamate
|
|
Glycine receptors
|
Ligand gates ion channels. Pentamer
glycine binds to alpha subunits |
|
glutamate receptors
|
NMDA AMPA
|
|
NMDA
|
lets NA and CA in and K out
tetramer takes glycine and 2 glutamate to get the MG out of the way |
|
AMPA
|
must activate before NMDA allows NA in and K out.
voltage from Na here allow MG to move in NMDA |
|
receptor 1
|
all are excitatory
|
|
glutamate group II and III
|
are autoreceptors have inhibitory function
|
|
Glutamate excitotoxicity
|
too much Ca. can lead to cell death (free radicals, degrade membranes and proteins).
memantine decreases toxcity |
|
Aceytlcholine released from
|
CNS: the basal forebrain, and the brainstem
PNS: NMJ, preganlionic fibers |
|
Acetylcholine functions
|
attention, memory, and learning
|
|
Acetylcholine receptors
|
nicotinic always excitatory ionotopic (Na) pentamer
NMJ |
|
Acetylcholine receptors muscarinic
|
all are GPCR odds are excitatory Gq evens are inhibitory Gi
|
|
norepinephrine termination
|
via uptake by the presynaptic cell (inhibited by cocaine and TCAs also dopamine)
|
|
catecholamine degredation
|
MAO-A degrades NE and seratonin
MAO-B degrades dopamine COMT degrades all |
|
Major metabolites of catecholamines
|
VMA and HVA
|
|
Dopamine
|
released from Diencephalon(hypothamalmus) and Brainstem (SNPC)
|
|
Dopamine receptors
|
D1(renal) and D5 excitatiory (Gs)
D2, D3, and D4 inhibitory (Gi) |
|
Norepinephrine
|
released from the brainstem (locus coeruleus)
PNS |
|
Norepinephrine receptors
|
a1 excitatory Gq
a2 inhibitory Gi B1,2,3 excitatory with Gs |
|
Epinephrine
|
released from CNS in the brainstem
|
|
Serotonin 5-HT
|
made from tryptophan, reuptake by platelets and presynaptic axon terminals made in brainstem from raphe nuclei
|
|
Serotonin metabolism
|
MAO-A metabolizesmajor metabolite (5-HIAA)
|
|
Serotonin receptors
|
GPCRs and one Ligand gated (5-HT3 fast depolarization on brain stem deals with emesis)
|
|
histamine
|
released from hypothalamus
degredatiion through MAO-B |
