4. Multiple Sclerosis Episodes of random, multifocal inflammation, edema, and subsequent demyelination of axons in CNS. Each episode may become malignant.
5. Astrocytes Think “End Feet” Scavenges Ions & Metabolic Remnants GlialFibrillar Acidic Protein (GFAP) Unique to Astrocytes
6. Neuron / Nissel Bodies No Nissel Bodies in Axon Transportation Along Axon: Slow Protein, Actin Intermediate Mitochondria Fast Synaptic Vessicles
15. Epistasis Patient has a certain genotype but the expressed phenotype is partially controlled by another gene. Patient could be AB, but also has hh gene for Fructose Transferase Oh
16. Hemolytic Disease of the Newborn IgG will attack newborn. 2nd Child or Later At Birth of Rh+ Baby At Abortion of Rh+ Fetus By Transfusion By Amniocentesis/ChorionVilli Sampling
27. Blood in Urine Haptoglobin & Hemopexin Prevent loss of hemoglobin & heme groups. Low Plasma Haptoglobin(Hemoglobinuria) Normal Plasma Haptoglobin
28. Acute Phase Proteins Synthesized in Bulk in Response to Infection α1-Antiprotease = Cells Are Dying α2-Antiprotease = Death of Hepatocytes β2-Microglobin = Renal Disease Ceruloplasm = Wilson’s Disease
73. Typical Intercostal Nerves 3rd – 6th Endothoracic Fascia Near the Angle of the Rib; Between Internal/Innermost Muscles At the Angle of the Rib; Collateral Branches
74. Thoracic Splanchnic Nerves Supply Viscera Inferior to Diaphragm Greater = T5-T9 Think “Heart” Lesser = T10-T11 Least = T12
75. 5 Layers of Skin Stratum Corneum Stratum Lucidum Only in Thick Skin Stratum Granulosum Water Proof Contains Lamellar Granules Stratum Spinosum Last Layer with Mitotic Activity Stratum Basale
89. Right Vagus Nerve Right Vagus Nerve Anterior to Subclavian Artery; Right Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve Posterior to Hilum Right Pulmonary Plexus & Esophageal Plexus *Left Vagus passes over arch of aorta.
100. Doxorubicin / Etoposide Chemotherapeutic Agent Inhibits Topoisomerase Type II Used to Treat Cancer
101. Topoisomerase II / Gyrase 2 Cuts Induces Negative Supercoils Opening DNA instills positive supercoils.
102. Exonuclease vs. Endonuclease Exonuclease Removes nucleotides from a 3’ end of DNA strand. Think “Proofread” Endonuclease Cut inside of a DNA strand to produce single stranded nicks. These nicked ends can be used by Exonucleases
104. Bacteria vs. Eukaryotes SSB / RPA Primase / Polα Pol III Polymerase / Polδ and ε β2 Sliding Clamp (subunit of Pol III) / PCNA 3’ Exonuclease of Pol I / RNaseH and/or FEN1 γ subunit of Pol III / RFC
109. RNA vs. DNA Synthesis NTPs Instead of dNTPs No Primers No Proofreading U instead of T RNA pol
110. Rifampicin Inhibits RNA polymerase in bacterial cells by binding to β-subunit of RNA polymerase (the essential polymerase enzyme). Used to treat TB, Leprosy, MRSA, and bacterial meningitis due to lipophic nature and uniqueness. Adverse effects include hepatotoxicity.
