It has been found to have anxiolytic and mood altering effects. Despite being a tricyclic drug‚ tianeptine has a significantly different pharmacologic profile than the average TCA and is thought to produce effects through action at several unique receptors. Tianeptine has found use in the treatment of asthma and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and may affect neural plasticity (learning). Potential Benefits of Tianeptine Tianeptine has been primarily used to treat depression‚ with some off-label use

cell membrane is subjected to mechanical stress. All adenosine receptor subtypes (A1‚ A2A‚ A2B‚ and A3) are G-protein-coupled receptors. The four receptor subtypes are further classified based on their ability to either stimulate or inhibit adenylate cyclase activity. The A1 receptors couple to Gi/o and decreases cAMP levels‚ while the A2 adenosine receptors couple to Gs‚ which stimulates adenylate cyclase activity. In addition‚ A1 receptors couple to Go‚ which has been reported to mediate adenosine

discovery of the drug ‘bullets’ (2). In his workings of stains using different dyes on lab animals‚ Paul Erhlich discovered that different dyes had varying affinities as to which blood cell it could attach to. Hence‚ he discovered the presence of chemo-receptors. With this discovery‚ Paul Erhlich worked with various chemists and went through several inventions to produce drugs such as suramin‚ to cure common illnesses and ailments (2). Paul Erhlich has been attributed for his theory that ‘bad’ cells in the

chest X-ray can be used to show the lumps called granulomas. A staging system ranging from 0‚ which is considered normal‚ to 4‚ which is will reveal scar tissue‚ is also used. Sarcoidosis can also be detected by blood tests‚ namely the ACE‚ or angiotensin test. Since the Ace isn’t always elevated‚ other blood tests are used to show liver‚ kidney‚ and bone marrow abnormalities that can occur with sarcoidosis. Other options of diagnosis are pulmonary function tests‚ fiber optic bronchoscopy‚ CT scan;

How is the distance between receptors related to sensitivity of a stimulus? * The greater the distance between receptors and stimulus the lesser sensitive are the stimulus. The smaller area‚ the more sensitive. 2. What does the two-point discrimination test measure? * It measures the smallest distance at which two points of contact can be felt or measures areas that are more sensitive and has more motor interactions. 3. What areas of

The sense of taste is mediated by taste receptor cells which are bundled in clusters called taste buds. Taste receptor cells sample oral concentrations of a large number of small molecules and report a sensation of taste to centers in the brainstem. In most animals‚ including humans‚ taste buds are most prevalent on small pegs of epithelium on the tongue called papillae. The taste buds themselves are too small to see without a microscope‚ but papillae are readily observed by close inspection of

The human body regulates concentrations of low density lipoprotein in the body using LDL receptor genes‚ [2] but missense mutations can sometimes occur in the coding sequences of these receptors‚ which would result in the formulation of the disorder‚ Familial Hypercholesterolemia‚ cardiovascular diseases‚ and other physical external symptoms on the outside of the body. The low density lipoprotein receptor gene is located on the 19th chromosome and is responsible for maintaining and regulating endocytosis
