General anaesthetics are group of drugs that produces loss of consciousness, and therefore, loss of all sensations.
The absolute loss of sensation is termed as anaesthesia.
Biosynthesis and catabolism of acetylcholine by Dheeraj gargDheeraj Aggarwal
Acetylcholine (ACh) is an organic chemical that functions in the brain and body of many types of animals (and humans) as a neurotransmitter—a chemical message released by nerve cells to send signals to other cells, such as neurons, muscle cells and gland cells.
Neurohumoral transmission in CNS-
The term neurohumoral transmission designates the transfer of a nerve impulse from a presynaptic to a postsynaptic neuron by means of a humoral agent e.g. a biogenic amine, an amino acid or a peptide.
Sympatholytic drugs (Adrenergic blockers) bind to the adrenergic receptors and prevent the action of adrenergic drugs.
These are drugs which block the actions of sympathetic division or catecholamines (adrenaline and noradrenaline).
They are competitive antagonists at both α and β adrenergic receptors.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2. CHOLINERGIC BLOCKING AGENTS
• Definition: Drugs or chemical agents apparently reduce the number of free receptors( muscarinic
and nicotinic)that can interact with acetylcholine by blocking the active site on receptor at
parasympathetic ganglia or neuro muscular junction are called as cholinergic blocking agents.
• Cholinergic blocking agents will reduce the availability of AcH – receptor interactions and its
biological response.
• Cholinergic blockers are also called as cholinolytics or parasympatholytics or cholinergic
antagonists or anticholinergics.
• They can also reduce the activity of cholinergic agonistic drugs.
• Cholinergic blockers are differentiated as muscarinic blockers and nicotinic blockers
3. SAR OF CHOLINOLYTIC AGENTS
Cationic head (Quaternary N):
• Anti cholinergics containing quaternary nitrogen atom ,shows stimulative action on
muscarinic receptor at neuromuscular junction in the skeletal muscle.
• Drugs should contain quaternary ammonium like AcH to show cholinergic blocking activity.
• Tertiary amine protonated with positive charge increases the potency of a drug.
• 10 to 12 carbon bridge between two nitrogens is optimal for maximum neuromuscular
blockade.
4. • Methyl,ethyl,propyl or isopropyl substitution on quaternary N atom shows good
activity and tolerated groups for the blocking activity.
Chain substitution:
• Bridging structure between two N atoms should be lipophilic in nature to show
increased potency.
• Ester group in the chain provides the most potent anticholinergic activity.
• The substituent may also be ether or aminoalcohol shows blocking action.
• No substitution in the chain decreases the activity.
A & B Substitution:
• Substitution may be cycloalkyl,aromatic or heterocyclic rings.
• Substitution with heterocyclic rings or carbocyclic groups increases antagonistic
activity.
• More potent anticholinergic compounds possess different rings at position A & B.
5. Substitution at position C:
• The substituent can be hydrogen atom or hydroxyl group or hyroxymethyl group.
• Antagonist with hydroxyl group or hydroxymethyl group is more potent.

• Cholinergic blockers are competitive antagonists
• They compete with acetylcholine.
• Cholinolytics block acetylcholine at the muscarinic receptors in the parasympathetic nervous
system.
• Reversible blockade of AcH at the muscarinic receptors at neuromuscular junction occurs by
receptor binding with cholinolytics.
• Reverses the levels of AcH at neuromuscular junction by decreasing the blockade.
• If these drugs(cholinergic blockers) binds to the receptors, they inhibit the nerve transmission at
these receptors.
