Calcium-sensing receptor

side effects, cannabinoids are shown to have a significant neuro-modulatory function in decreasing CINV.1 CB1 cannabinoid receptors are present in the central nervous system, while recent evidence proposes that CB2 receptors are present on brainstem neurons. Both CB1 and CB2 receptors may have a role in mediating the cannabinoid effects on vomiting. Whether through a CB1 receptor agonist or with CB2 binding, cannabinoids directly and indirectly affect serotonin,…

Analysis of Adenosine receptor blockage’s effects on the electrophysiology of HCTP/OR producing neurons of the Hypothalamus – receptor blockage mediated by Caffeine Introduction In this experiment, the quantification of firing rate changes on a specific neural sub-group will be analyzed via whole cell patch-clamping and the application of the common psychoactive drug-caffeine. The significance of quantifying the electrical signaling of the chosen neuron is to proportionally quantify the…

Disorders of sexual development (DSD) have been a topic of great interest as of late. Intersex, at its most basic definition, is when one does not ‘fit’ into the binary gender structure most commonly subscribed to in Western civilization; or, rather, having a variation of sexual characteristics or a combination other than the more common female to XX and male to XY. Research shows that 1.7% of the population has a DSD, considering the current population of the U.S., that would be approximately…

or specialized proteins that protect the immune system, which were most likely produced as part of the body’s response to the patients’ teratomas (Dalmau 63). Basically, teratomas contain various cell types that, when they cross-react with NMDA receptors, which can affect memory and learning in the brain, basically make one’s system vulnerable to a breakdown of the immune system. This creates a confusion in the body that produces autoantibodies which…

Purpose What makes the best bubble solution? In order to make a best bubble solution, I have to use detergent, corn syrup, water, and glycerin. By the best, I mean a mixture that creates a solution which will last long. Acknowledgments I would like to thank everyone who helped me make my project successful. First of all, I would like to thank my teacher Mr. Mackey’s help. He provided the instructions and explained how to do an essay and a poster board. Secondly, I would like to thank you my…

Firstly we need to recognize what hard water is, hard water is a water that has high mineral substance. Hard water happens when groundwater grabs minerals as it moves through rock and soil. It most normally grabs salts like magnesium chloride and calcium chloride. At the point when hard water is utilized to wash your dishes, it might turn out looking more regrettable than when they went in. Hard water leaves your dishes spotted and can even keep your dishes from getting as perfect as they…

Introduction The definition of water hardness, in its simplest form, can be explained as, “the amount of dissolved calcium and magnesium in water.” Water hardness can be attributed to groundwater systems naturally flowing through soil and rock. While doing so, divalent amounts of cations from mineral sources dissolve into the water supply (USGS). Water hardness is not harmful to people’s health. In fact, these minerals can be beneficial, as humans need minerals to survive. However, water…

Discussion: In this section the results of the degree of water hardness of the water samples of this group using the two primary methods EDTA and AA will be discussed and analyzed in terms of which sample is exhibiting a high degree of hardness and which sample is considered to have a small water hardness value compared to other samples, and test the hypothesis and prediction of the water samples being tested. According to the results obtained and calculated the water sample that has a high…

Introduction: Hot packs work by dissolving a salt, such as calcium chloride, in water to create an exothermic reaction. When salts are dissolved in water it requires energy to break their bonds apart, but energy is also released when the ions are surrounded by the water molecules. If more energy is released than is required to break the bonds, the reaction will be exothermic and will produce heat. In hot packs the water is kept separate from the salt, and when it needs to be activated, they are…

into the vinegar, the egg shell was dissolved, and the egg got larger. The reason the shell dissolved is because vinegar contains acetic acid, this breaks apart the calcium-based eggshell creating two byproducts. One byproduct is carbon dioxide from dissolving the calcium carbonate crystals in the shell. The second byproduct is the calcium…
