00:00 Mhm. Alright. So last lecture stopped on this slide if I recall

00:08 . And we were talking about the much lina we're talking specifically a bunch

00:12 loud and toxin Botox. And he you can draw things from nature.

00:18 things can be toxic and poisonous can you sick. You can have it

00:22 a controlled fashion. In the case Botox it will control them to control

00:28 , vesicular acetylcholine fusion of the plasma and acetylcholine release therefore preventing muscle contractions

00:38 the site where it was injected nearby can also be used for therapeutic reasons

00:47 . Give Me 1 2nd Please. you can treat neurological disorders too as

00:54 alluded. Mhm. So you can acetylcholine release along different pathways of the

01:03 . You can control the secular You can control the presence of a

01:08 Colin in the synapse. If you controlling a cyclical in restoration, you'll

01:12 about that later in the lecture. can control it or you can control

01:17 recycling of that neurotransmitter. And all these things are found in nature,

01:24 usually by having some sort of a some sort of a disease. But

01:29 usually applied and used for therapeutic purposes well. So you'll also learn more

01:35 the function of the organophosphates. Then talked about three types of potentials and

01:42 I review the E. P. . P. That we talked about

01:46 and I PSB I'll remind you that started talking about the neuromuscular junction that

01:53 pointed out several important things in the junction, skeletal muscle. There's only

02:00 a single colony in post synaptic Nicotine exit polling reception means the synapses

02:07 excited her. There's only one neurotransmitter released from motor neuron onto the muscles

02:13 steel cone. When the synapses activated the civil coding is released, there's

02:20 these molecules that get released of these of the synoptic clough. The structure

02:25 the functional falls is such that the Akopian receptors are located most approximately to

02:33 release size of the citadel colon. receptors, eligon gator or chemical gated

02:41 channels and binding of a single Colin settle Colin receptors will open these receptor

02:50 and will allow for influx of And you learn that these channels are

02:55 to both sodium and potassium so they're specific to one ion but influx of

03:00 will account for this massive deep polarization we call the And play potential or

03:07 . P. P. In abbreviated . And to a potential is typically

03:12 the order of 70 million votes. what makes us synapse high fidelity of

03:17 to 1 but reliable when there is deep polarization and action potential prison

03:22 That means that there's going to be a large enough deep polarization to reach

03:27 threshold for actual potential and that deep from and playing potential. Once you

03:33 this deep polarization that will engage other will engage both educated sodium channels,

03:40 channels and producing muscle action potential muscles , they're also producing action country the

03:48 and skeletal muscle action potentials are much in direction. So we discussed.

03:55 you can when you think about the . P. S. Peace and

04:00 mm plea for tom Charles, you think about here again that eh PSP's

04:10 mps piece that will come back to the cns. They're typically half a

04:16 volt once the now excited person So you have to engage many excited

04:22 analysis in order to reach the threshold of the control generation. But and

04:28 play potential. The TPP shown Red for the and play potential will

04:35 massive enough to always reach that and that threshold and activate subsequently much longer

04:43 insists than both educated sodium and both calcium channels. So in contrast excited

05:05 boston optic potentials created in the N. S. By also wagon

05:13 channels but in contrast are much smaller altitude. So a single synapse activation

05:20 at 0.5 million balls. So if have many excitatory synapse sisters potential,

05:26 not the potential is graded and it be half a mil of all if

05:31 actually three synapses, 1.5 20 synopsis levels, 40 synopsis about 20 million

05:40 . They're all excited. Tory they have to remember that these neurons will

05:44 receiving inhibitory inputs to. That's not case in the neuromuscular junction. That's

05:49 it's a very simple uh synaptic communication the level of more muscular junction for

05:58 . P. S. P. excited to glutamate is going to get

06:02 prison optically that glutamate will bind to glutamate receptors that are receptor channels and

06:10 lawful influx of sodium. They're also to be permissible to both sodium and

06:15 as you learn later. Next lecture this will influx of sodium positive charge

06:22 cause a deep polarization of the possible and in the form of a predatory

06:26 after potential. On the other if this neuron contains gabba release of

06:36 and binding of Gaba, two Gaba in particular receptor subtype a gaba receptor

06:45 will result in opening of the receptor the flux of fluoride into the

06:52 the movement of negative and I on charged ion into the South will cause

07:00 polarization. And this hyper polarization is inhibitory bus synaptic potential. So just

07:07 with the PS PC PSP is also and depending on how many inhibitory synapses

07:15 been activated that I PSP can be from half a million vault of hyper

07:20 to 10 million volts of hyper polarization uh uh we learn more details about

07:29 turn inhibitor signaling. In fact next . But uh if you're wondering what

07:41 I'm covering, it's if you look your course content and you go through

07:50 lecture notes, it's a neuro transmission neurotransmitter systems. So these are the

08:03 lectures just to place you if you're where you are that we're covering?

08:09 huh. So direct versus indirect near we already alluded to it. This

08:16 direct meaning that when a ligand or binds to a receptor, that receptor

08:22 also a channel. So that receptor is a channel and can directly conduct

08:28 inside outside the cell and so And indirect transmission. Otherwise referred to

08:36 memorable tropic transmission. You have activation the receptor by neurotransmitter or chemical or

08:46 but that receptor that receives a Lagan is not a channel. Instead

08:52 is linked to the G protein complex activation of the G protein complex can

08:58 regulate the opening and closing of the channels. And so these channels are

09:03 to as g protein gated ion channels their key to open and closing them

09:12 the G protein complex. So that never opens the receptor channel. But

09:19 intracellular lee activates this complex. The that gets activated into cellular can also

09:28 regulate the amounts of enzymes that are secondary messengers to influence the secondary messenger

09:39 for different organize including for the nucleus and the transcription factors in the nucleus

09:47 neurotransmitter different effect in the same You will see that in the in

09:55 in a way there's certain receptors that bind the same neurotransmitter glutamate or they

10:04 buy the single polling and two receptors mind that same substance that can be

10:12 receptors. It can be norepinephrine They're going to be exerting opposing actions

10:18 the cell. It can be one be de polarizing another one can be

10:23 polarizing. If you talk about metabolic signaling, one could be stimulating protein

10:30 that stimulates stimulatory gs increasing the production something and another one receptor that receives

10:37 same molecule that a different subtype of linked to a different function differently program

10:44 is inhibitory and that will drive down production of that same molecule enzyme chemical

10:52 neurotransmitter, different effects on different So the same neurotransmitter and have a

10:59 effect on one side. It can excited turn another salad can be

11:04 This all speaks to what we discussed lecture that the response of the cell

11:10 not depend on the chemical as much on the receptor and what that receptor

11:16 whether it's a receptor channel whether it's g protein coupled receptor, your transmitter

11:23 . We started talking about acetylcholine and we're going to learn about the synthesis

11:30 breakdown of the city of kobane of acetylcholine is in motor neurons, neuromuscular

11:37 you there's packs of acetylcholine molecules to produced in the pre frontal lobe

11:45 prefrontal cortex and in brain standard for as well as you will see.

11:54 peripheral nervous system, pre embryonic parasympathetic and in the brain you will see

12:00 it is synthesized and we will come to the discussion that we already talked

12:06 when I said that amino acids neurotransmitters as glutamate and Gaba a widely expressed

12:12 neurons in different parts of the But these other substances means single coding

12:21 indifferent to have very specialized nuclei bunches cells that express them and then send

12:28 signal through their axonal projections throughout the . So settle Colin gets synthesized when

12:36 seal kolej and Colleen come together and . Kalina Siegel transfer is abbreviation is

12:46 so they have to come together and . It produces settle Colleen that acetylcholine

12:53 transported so you have the secular civil transporters, it will upload a single

12:58 into the vesicles. Now the seal is going to get released. There's

13:04 acetylcholine receptors that are shown here, optical one that is a receptor channel

13:10 that is our nicotine acetylcholine receptor and come back to it and a few

13:15 again and next it is acetylcholine which most sarinic receptor that is not a

13:21 but instead it's G protein coupled So once the ceo Colin is released

13:28 will buy into these receptors whatever receptors mathematically maybe expressed on specific neuronal subtypes

13:37 the remainder of the societal Colleen and general it's not just going to stay

13:42 linger instead in the synaptic cleft that's to get broken down by a civil

13:51 a race okay, A C H N is abbreviation here for a single

13:56 nurseries. So sick local investors will down a single Colin into acetic

14:02 CH three C O. H. Colleen molecule. And then Colin molecule

14:09 be transported back through the sodium co into the pre synaptic cell. Where

14:17 Colin and acetyl coa a are going come together again and chat, they

14:23 form a new is still coming molecule then acetylcholine will go through the same

14:28 of being uploaded into vesicles release binding the respective receptors. Degrade advising local

14:35 estrus. Re uptake in this mechanism called re uptake. We have taken

14:42 into the personal topic terminals, re , reloaded, released exercise doses and

14:51 on. No, if you I told you earlier in the

14:59 maybe you have a page for a that you spared for Alzheimer's disease.

15:07 early in the semester we learned about of the pathology, like gross anatomical

15:14 Alzheimer's disease. Some of the things symptoms, we learned some of the

15:18 about hallmarks of pathology of Alzheimer's disease one of the things that we alluded

15:27 , we've never talked about is that Alzheimer's disease as a seal Colin

15:33 Colin ergic signaling. Sometimes people refer this core energetic tone and the brain

15:40 decreasing in the cns and these you learn in a few slides where

15:48 located. These neurons start dying early as you haven't answered about somehow these

15:59 ergic neurons are vulnerable to this early pathology and Alzheimer's disease. So one

16:11 the uh main treatment of Alzheimer's Alzheimer's medications the target a civil pulling

16:21 race and in particular their a Seattle to race blockers or inhibitors. And

16:31 will even see some of the commercials will say since C. I.

16:37 . Because there might be some drug drug interactions. So if you watch

16:41 . V. At the airport or you watch Tv you see something,

16:45 sure you using sense of your own usually for elderly people if they're taking

16:51 medication. So Colin nestor is C . I am. That's how the

16:58 comes you know but there are some ministries inhibitors. There is one medication

17:04 there's Memon team that is targeting glutamate receptors but most of the multibillion dollar

17:13 industry is focused on this approach here on the market. And what does

17:19 do if you block a silicone erase this, prolongs the availability by

17:28 of a single Conan in the synoptic . That means that the civil Colin

17:34 gets released doesn't get degraded as easily on the dosage. Is that is

17:43 good solution. Only if you have single Colin neurons and only if those

17:50 still have a some acetylcholine and that not a great solution if these are

17:59 coming neurons. Our neuro degenerating or why because they can no longer produce

18:12 and if you're putting a saddle Colin is inhibitor in the absence but these

18:19 you may be putting it in the of a suitable clothing. So this

18:25 an important mechanism of action of Alzheimer's . You should add to your notes

18:32 it's not a cure, there is cure for Alzheimer's disease. It only

18:39 down the progression of the disease because early pathologies in the early breakdown of

18:49 arctic signaling will inevitably influence the neurons, nuclei and brain regions that

18:58 interconnected that are dependent on the seat Colin, normal tone in order to

19:07 normal functions, cognitive functions, sensory and so on. So this code

19:18 as you'll see pharmacologically could potentially be avenue of manipulation and it is seen

19:26 other means. But in general there's real need and Alzheimer's as you guys

19:34 interested in neuroscience and engineering and biology your pharmacology, there's a real need

19:42 in developing unique approaches and somehow preserving Seattle Colin signaling, busting the

19:53 untangling the tangles, so regulating the protein expression inside the cells regulating the

20:03 . P. P. L. . Apple protean expression unfolding outside the

20:07 the plaque formation. All of these also actually viable therapeutic approaches and some

20:15 them such as flag busting is quite big deal in the Euro pharmacological

20:21 Can you basically create substances that will bind to the plaques and somehow will

20:29 like bust up those plaques and those will just get digested by micro

20:35 So can you do both? You , bust the plaque, reactivate the

20:39 glia and can you control the microbial ? Because if you over activate leah

20:47 these processes glia gets also unchecked, it starts creating scars and it starts

20:53 more of cytokines that if you're creating information rather than reducing it, there's

21:00 fun balance there someplace there are two . I think you have to have

21:03 person. Yeah, why not? while? How do you give somebody

21:16 single company and in the brain it's a disease. Mhm. No,

21:23 that is an excellent question because it goes in the digestion. Then

21:28 have to wonder it passes in the . Doesn't get picked up. How

21:33 is the molecule? Right. Does cross the blood brain barrier?

21:41 Thank you injection. Okay, so get back to that also because you

21:48 want a specific site for injection. that's also a good question. And

21:53 this is also an opportunity given these networks like I mean networks and their

21:59 expression to limited parts of the brain opposed to glutamate or gaba which is

22:05 over cortex and hippocampus and brainstem and on. So Hang on to that

22:14 . I think it's very controversial. that patients without I think patients I

22:26 Alzheimer's cannot have Emily burns but still a and I guess what the process

22:32 a very good question. Uh The here, one of the students mentioned

22:41 study and amyloid plaques and the drug is controversial is the approved because Alzheimer's

22:48 have symptoms without having the plaques. I think the most and the best

22:55 action is to have the ability to the presence of plaques and you can

23:00 that with blood markers and you can that was imaging but advanced stages and

23:10 not sure. Maybe you can look if you're interested in the new stuff

23:14 Alzheimer's disease, if there is a human marker for the plaques and the

23:23 , who can be images of living ? I don't know. But I

23:29 that there are blood markers have been least indicate and suggest. And of

23:35 in severe Alzheimer's pathologies and maybe this where it's most applicable. The plug

23:42 if it is so severe that you see on CT scan. But something

23:49 which would indicate formation of really large and scarring tissue around them. Maybe

23:57 what's for as a I would probably as advanced stages of Alzheimer's disease where

24:06 plaques are causing a lot of loss function. I think politics like I

24:24 there's always politics. There's always something involved and there's always interest for both

24:32 and profit. You know. So . Yeah, because I don't find

24:47 this important therapy only useful. Yes. Yeah. But in the

25:01 of any alternative is usually increase of that happens early onset, low concentration

25:08 you progress with the disease and concentration the drug may be increased by a

25:13 too. And at first it may just barely regulating that amount of the

25:19 code or even later increases the regulation that amount, allowing for more subtle

25:24 . And so but most of the drugs, as you know, everything

25:29 you're taking is not only affecting your , expecting your liver, your

25:34 your other portions uh and the not just in the cns. And

25:40 there's a burden is a burden on body for taking the drugs to not

25:48 their beauty burden, but just Move things like that. So all

25:55 . Kind of. Well, if I don't have much time to discuss

26:07 , but if you look up it's to the top road in there's two

26:13 kind of protein systems that are upset Alzheimer's disease. And I wish I

26:17 a slide. I could show you quickly. But we know what

26:25 But we don't have a very good of approaching and therapeutical. So with

26:30 mechanisms we know pretty well behind No. Uh I'll see if I

26:35 find the slide. Maybe that will a little bit of that for the

26:39 next lecture or so. Very good . Thank you guys I'm gonna move

26:45 a little bit and talk about Acetylcholine as we talked about combined two

26:55 channel, that receptor channel is called receptor because nicotine will also bind to

27:02 receptor. So nicotine will buy into receptor, it will open the receptor

27:09 and by opening the receptor channel it as an agonist on an activator of

27:17 receptor? Oh the continent receptor also its own antagonist. So this is

27:24 ira and what you're learning is common neuro pharmacology. How do different substances

27:32 and close the channels? And acetylcholine course is an agonist is a natural

27:41 for both the Continent receptor and masculinity . That means that will initiate the

27:48 of both the receptor channel and the G protein complex, musk. Corinne

27:56 a separate agonist and that's what it's must heretic receptors. So you can

28:01 these receptors pharmacological E one will be to nicotine. Another one's mustering what

28:06 won't be responsive or blocked by chara a trippin will inhibit the activation of

28:15 . Nick receptor. So a trumpian antagonist here. Uh huh. And

28:30 you recall last time we talked about systems and I think that in this

28:38 this in this uh case I want switch to a different slide. Uh

28:47 . Mhm. Wait a second. and in this slide what is illustrated

28:59 how do you determine where different neurotransmitter . Remember what the neurotransmitter system is

29:06 neurotransmitter synthesizing ends on can be a enzyme that degrades it degrading ends on

29:15 be a specific transporter. Uh All these things are part of the,

29:22 of the system, bicycle, It's of the neurotransmitter system. So you

29:29 determine where your neurotransmitter systems, record components are located such as neurotransmitters such

29:37 receptors the most common way to do in the lab. And this can

29:42 done in the human tissue to and is done in the clinic after you

29:46 human tissue or cancer. It's not specific and do immune, artistic chemistry

29:52 liver tissues. Can tissue to determine markers or what specific molecules are expressed

29:58 over expressed. There's high levels of molecules are under express low levels of

30:04 molecules. So um you know history essentially utilizes antibodies and antibodies that you

30:12 take from one animal such as mouse rat and injected into rabbit like a

30:21 and the animal will create an antibody isolate this antibody this black white and

30:28 can tag the anti body with a marker and that visible marker could be

30:36 it's immunities to chemistry currently is done fluorescence. So these markets are fluorescent

30:42 means that they will exude, lied a certain wavelength and you can use

30:52 markers and different wavelengths of fluorescent and can do multiple immuno history chemical marker

31:00 on the same tissue or the same as long as they bind to different

31:06 say one is binding to the another is binding to receptors. Another

31:10 is binding to synthesizing enzyme and you to see all three of them.

31:15 you will tag them with three different markers and then the microscope you will

31:21 the fluorescent microscope you will switch the to pick up just the red,

31:27 the green or just the yellow color is a different marker and you will

31:33 where different aspects of this neurotransmitter systems located. You can take these tagged

31:42 antibodies and apply them onto the tissue then the immuno history chemistry preparations a

31:49 of times of course and it's only vitro where this is done a lot

31:56 times you will be doing things like , putting the tissue on the shaker

32:01 the shaking table. You may be it through the steps where you're applying

32:06 little bit of detergent which will open the plasma membrane and allow for certain

32:13 to enter into the South. And antibodies that are specific to this neurotransmitter

32:20 is green neurotransmitter. We'll enter into south that will have this green block

32:26 will bind to these cells. And as a part of the immunity chemistry

32:30 you will go through multiple steps of and even if the antibodies penetrate into

32:37 nearby south and the plasma membrane during washing stop, they will get washed

32:44 . Only the ones that are truly to the molecule of interest such as

32:52 will then show up under a microscope one cell will glow and yellow.

32:58 the next door cell that does not that near transmitter will not show any

33:04 signal. You can use immuno history and immuno fluorescence to tag uh

33:16 You can tag neurotransmitters. You can individual synapses still by using in United

33:25 chemistry for very specific molecules. You distinguish between different set types of

33:31 There's microbrewery a specific in una has chemistry that you can perform and visualize

33:37 of the micro glial south. That's very useful tool because you can combine

33:42 with other things too. Now the tool that is used to find these

33:48 is in situ hybridization and in this the radioactively labelled probe with the proper

33:56 of complementary new clegg assets. this is something that you can

34:03 you can design a sequence of nucleic because it's supposed economic error. So

34:09 know what this sequence will pull it . You can go on find it

34:13 the gene engines and jean searches called Wiebe some attitude. We'll give you

34:21 cost you know $10, whatever radioactively tag. And then you can target

34:30 specific strand of messenger RNA. So of hybridization does not go for proved

34:38 does not go for molecule but rather RNA what it codes for. That's

34:45 the message is love data and it radioactive label. And similarly to in

34:52 know chemistry only the cells that have complementary sequence to the sequence that you've

35:01 and applied onto petition only those cells show the radioactive marker. And it's

35:10 just uh you know, it's a view to look at individual networks,

35:16 cells using these techniques. But on ride here is an example of a

35:24 embryo in the early development and wherever seeing this dark blue color and you're

35:32 seeing it everywhere. This is the . So you're not seeing much of

35:36 in the stomach, You're not seeing in the legs. You're seeing it

35:41 the spinal cord. You're singing going into into the brain stem,

35:47 not seeing much of it here and , upper cortical regions. And in

35:53 this substance here is tyrosine kind is and it's not important to know for

36:01 . But it is important to know these techniques and you know, his

36:05 chemistry and zero hybridization can give you aerial view and the expression of the

36:13 of neurotransmitter systems may change with development change with age. Obviously obviously they

36:23 pathology as well. A third technique is functional more functional because here you're

36:30 a static imaging with functionally from the days when Otello we isolated, still

36:37 and applied it to an stimulated heart that stimulated heart slow down its

36:43 Once we had glutamate Gaba isolated North and all of these other neurotransmitters.

36:50 the means. We then started using in the lab Applying it on two

36:57 doing mimicry no transmitter or synoptic So you can stimulate a pre synaptic

37:04 that contains glutamate and it will release and it will cause a deep polarization

37:09 this neuron. Or you can isolate and put it inside the pipe pad

37:15 the liquid and release this glue to onto the gun rights and the response

37:22 the cell we're recording from should be . It should also be an excitatory

37:28 synaptic potential. Mrs glue, dermatologic or you apply glue to make and

37:34 my previous lecture alluded to an article is in the lecture supporting materials on

37:40 caging of neurotransmitters? It's important that think about this for a second.

37:48 what happens if you push this fluid of the pipette and you're trying to

37:54 this very small region here on the . Are you going to be exclusively

38:00 in doing so when the surrounding environment a Prius. No so this substance

38:06 going to follow the law of That means that there's going to be

38:11 concentration of the substance of the synapse interest slightly lower in the surrounding synopsis

38:17 as further as it goes is it to the essentially negligible concentration uh

38:27 not a very accurate way. In outlet way. And so what the

38:33 allows to do, it allows you actually cage these neurotransmitters and I'll you

38:40 cage glutamine, we can cage gather then use microscope blazers to activate an

38:49 blue tonight at one single dendritic Now it's very precise signs and microscopy

38:56 laser microscopy is very fast. The are now going down to mental second

39:04 but in any case nanosecond you can this very fast within nanoseconds or

39:12 You can activate several precise and it in just one or two or three

39:19 of interest. So that's why this technique uh until the we discovered this

39:26 100 years ago it is 100 year technique. We just improved the microscopes

39:32 the ability to count to single neurons them rights and stimulate them in this

39:39 like diffuse fashion, knows a lot science that was done A lot of

39:43 that were done using this technique. now moving into the 21st century I

39:48 these laser microscopy techniques engaging of neurotransmitters getting to very single synapse of every

39:56 molecule within the synapse and the very fashion and across states. So that

40:03 is uh where the science is having days. Okay, remember we talked

40:10 amino acids and groups of the In fact we had this slide that

40:18 . I uh inserted in addition to . You know acids the means and

40:25 ties. And they said no you're responsible to learn all of the breakdown

40:29 synthesis. Except for the things that really stress. Like casino calling.

40:34 huh. For other things that we about gamma wait a minute. But

40:39 will not talk about dying Norfolk. I'll never ask. You wouldn't die

40:43 and as a precursor to or how is synthesized and so on.

40:48 We mentioned these very interesting classes of that are gases which is not just

40:54 and carbon monoxide. You learn more them today as well as endocannabinoid.

40:59 the function differently than not stored in . It also mostly exert their effects

41:06 the priests unethically located receptors. ATP then isn't dry, phosphate and a

41:13 in the core of the ATP molecule very interesting. Uh neurotransmitter neurotransmitter systems

41:21 I will be mentioning in this course well. Okay, so what else

41:26 interesting in the slide Galba t. glittery glue them in. We dominates

41:36 blue linked. So if you have I mean you can make good

41:41 So all of the excited ourselves. have good families If you have

41:49 Guess what else he can do? can produce gaba. So this is

41:57 yeah. I'm I'm you know beauty car box pallets or God. And

42:03 of the inhibitory neurons will contain All right, Where did they get

42:10 from? Mhm. They don't express a minute. Where do they get

42:17 from? If you don't make will ? Where how do you get it

42:22 you don't make it? And you say you imported from Canada Mexico china

42:32 . Right? So you you have transporter probably um a transporter or another

42:43 to get you the glutamate to make into Gabba but all of the neurons

42:49 inhibit their neurons. You want to them? Not for glutamate. I

42:54 to send them for God. Okay Tommy casa dicker boxers a single

43:01 This is our pathway with a chat also know that pathway with a breakdown

43:06 the local investor is serotonin trip to . Trip to Faneuil through review some

43:15 this popular too. The trip to which a lot of you if you

43:20 thanksgiving with a turkey, he had big dose of took the fan which

43:25 rich in Turkey and that is a to your happy serotonin molecule which is

43:31 hydroxy took to me in five htp . No, there's a lot of

43:38 interesting things. Tyrosine will make dopa dopa die hydroxy Federal Lauerman. Aldo

43:45 a precursor for dopamine. Dopamine is precursor for nor epinephrine, norepinephrine is

43:51 . Epinephrine. All of these different do different things and they expressed

43:59 So as we talked about the not mediate different functions. If you have

44:06 dysfunction in acetylcholine and Colin ergic neurons its associated with Alzheimer's disease. A

44:14 and dopamine signaling is associated with motor , the general disorders such as Parkinson's

44:22 . Okay, if you're talking about like a dennison, who said that

44:27 rise and they help you relax and asleep. You talk about molecules that

44:32 and norepinephrine epinephrine. It's something that and engages, right? So just

44:39 other it's an active upstate instead of this is the pharmacology that we already

44:48 and this is the pharmacology that we know also like a technical mascara.

44:57 review a little bit more about the proteins in particular g proteins have what

45:03 discussed the short good pathway. The pathways refer to this right here.

45:11 what is most koranic, acetylcholine receptor and when this this shortage catholic when

45:19 civil coming binds to Moscow clinic receptor the do protein? The data gamma

45:25 of the spread in will then but essentially from this complex and it will

45:33 and will bind to the nearby potassium binding of this jeopardy in complex subunit

45:41 the potassium channels will open the potassium when you open the potassium channels,

45:50 is going to leave the south the charge leaving the south so binding a

45:58 Colleen the most horrific receptor metal tropic clearly perceptible open the potassium channel potassium

46:06 leave the cell and the result is to be hyper polarization, potassium positive

46:15 leaving the sound making the inside more . You continue. Acetylcholine receptor allows

46:22 influx of sodium and it's deep polarizing neurons. Most quranic is hyper polarizing

46:30 and they can co express both. then it depends where it is located

46:36 early. What networks are dominated by receptors? What cells are dominated more

46:42 what receptors and they're also subtypes of nicotine thick and muscular receptors. There's

46:47 just 1 -1 hispanic receptors slightly different . Splice variants if you make these

46:55 that are functional normal splice variants Yeah let's look at the glutamate cycle

47:05 let's talk about what is happening in brain. In general neurons communicate with

47:11 neurons but they do that. You what we call a tri apartheid synapse

47:19 apartheid synapses. You're on Guam neuron who is an optic girl. Our

47:29 neuron and we also and in this in particular disastrous site. So we

47:35 about astrocytes and we said that all are their household chores and they have

47:41 blood brain barrier a lot of supportive . But this is an example of

47:47 intricately clear control neuronal synaptic transmission glue has produced synthesized from glued mm and

47:58 theirselves with blue dominates and ATP and uploaded into the vesicles. When glutamate

48:06 released. This is the subject of following electrical intimate also binds to a

48:13 channels that are on a tropical intimate . And the D. A.

48:18 chicken. We learn about these. then they can also bind the metabolic

48:22 ornamental stoppage. And there's at least 12 different subtypes of metal with tropical

48:27 a major stuff. And those receptors will have typically an opposing action where

48:36 binding to Iowa tropic receptor will cause attic deep polarization binding to medical tropic

48:44 can actually cause a hyper realistic. some instances it can enhance the polarization

48:51 some instances can actually do the So this goes back to what we

48:57 a few slides again the same substance receptor, nicotine ECB you polarization must

49:03 hyper polarization. Two different receptors, same substance, different outcome for the

49:08 functional outcome. This glutamate when it's the synoptic collapse it doesn't linger here

49:14 lot. It gets transported back neuronal re uploaded into the vesicles and we

49:23 again. But a portion of this important the most important excited to a

49:30 is transported through real rhythm. A and it's turned through terminates enters into

49:40 and then that blew them in is back or transported exits out, released

49:47 gets transported into the neurons where it with the terminus synthesizing to glutamate glutamine

49:58 the time of Cassidy is acidic Sorry it's a it's a it's a

50:04 gloomy. Okay so atomic acid is and released again and now you can

50:13 that those two neurons and Glia both an intricate role in the overall

50:21 A little mint. So Glia can how much of this excited are.

50:27 transmission can take place between two neurons it is responsible for cycling. Part

50:34 that glutamine glutamate is turning into the and recycling it back into europe.

50:43 this is not just for probably a recycling not just for excited neurons but

50:49 for inhibitor announced to it's uh cycling Gaba and re update of Gaba.

50:58 china cola means and most of the are now going to be on the

51:06 . But I want you to pay of how things are made in the

51:09 . If you're not familiar merger with biochemistry, tyrosine will have hydroxy

51:16 What is hydroxy liss? It's a group. Ohr so don't don't don't

51:26 confused or don't think that biochemistry is . So lost now. So you

51:35 hydroxy lists of uh oh age, have Kobach Selous car box Eliza seal

51:44 in the southern enzymes that are deco oasis. Then they take the ceo

51:52 off the G carb oxalate. They this Citigroup and another one comes in

51:59 the hydroxy silicates. ADR oscillates another here. Another one commence and it's

52:08 ethel and transfers. So the method besieged there europe. So these are

52:16 of your major changes and bio synthesis uh and somatic changes in regulation that

52:24 happening. Hydroxy elation, deacon of in isolation. Mhm. We'll also

52:32 a little bit about foster relation. defense for relation. I've been waiting

52:38 a biochemistry Iraq song by famous rap but it hasn't come about yet.

52:48 cata cola means all of these We're talking about dopamine, norepinephrine and

52:54 upstate movement, mood, good attention but also this is all

53:00 So all of these molecules are expressed the periphery, not just in the

53:04 to cata colonies will go through the cycle and they will be re uptake

53:10 back and catch a colony. And is controlled by amphetamines and cocaine.

53:17 it can be controlled in a therapeutic pharmacological drug like fashion. But obviously

53:23 is also abused with illicit drugs such cocaine. And so the function of

53:29 has prolonged the by availability availability of Colombians which are uppers mood enhancers if

53:39 may is something that activates your And so it's something that is quite

53:47 and has been on the market and been synthesized not only produced from the

53:57 cocaine comes from cocoa plants. If can imagine some crusty dude someplace.

54:05 a broken down house trying to put together. Make some powder and mix

54:12 powder with something else and stuff. and some pliers and floated across the

54:18 into the United States or something like . You know. So uh and

54:25 now actually we talked about it a bit when we talk about the cannabinoids

54:31 it's very important because there's a huge of synthetic opioids. We have not

54:39 uh pandemic but we also have Opioid, epidemic synthetic drug epidemic stuff

54:51 seems to be legal but it's even laura unknown or not really legal.

55:01 pay attention to these things but the of action is a lot of it

55:06 through the update. Also pay attention serotonin smooth appetite sweep learning bad

55:15 no appetite, no sleep, bad . It's all interrelated. Right?

55:22 it's this cycle here. Your trip fan cycle. And if you look

55:27 PROzac it's most common brand name. tied depressant drug. A lot of

55:32 may have heard is like I said antidepressant because serotonin is happy mood.

55:40 if you blocked me uptake of what are you doing? You prolonging

55:45 by availability of serotonin in the synoptic . Mm. So now you have

55:52 of some interesting your pharmacological approaches. can manipulate the re uptake of molecules

56:02 you can manipulate the breakdown of Yeah. L dopa for example is

56:09 precursor for dopamine and L dopa is and you need to increase dopamine production

56:18 a drug that is L dopa. this is another approach, You increase

56:24 presence of the precursor. So maybe cannot inject the saddle Colleen into specific

56:33 of the brain or feed people a Colin. But maybe there's also a

56:39 to find molecules that of precursors or mimic the activity of the naturally produced

56:49 such as steel Colin. But how you get there? How do you

56:52 them? Not only the brave within synapses, mm. Now, g

56:59 in addition to most of these simians will have G proteins and some of

57:06 uh such as norepinephrine will function exclusively the G protein linked cascades and g

57:13 cascades is not only something that you affect through shortcut, halfway nearby ion

57:20 . Open or close these iron you can also activate downstream numbering bound

57:26 santa. Solich enzymes you can affect chemical reactions and you can activate or

57:35 downstream enzyme creation. Pyrenees hospitals all way down to the prescription factors in

57:41 nucleus. So all the way from receptor in the num brain If the

57:47 and the message is conveyed in the way in a proper way, it

57:52 actually lead you all the way to gene expression of. Okay, this

58:00 a norepinephrine, Norepinephrine is another example it's a great example what we call

58:07 pull mechanisms where when norepinephrine binds the receptor. This beta receptor. Unfortunately

58:15 blurred out as beta receptors linked to G protein or gs and binding of

58:23 to beta receptor who activate the Gs increase the production of a general

58:30 It will turn 80 P into cyclic and will produce a lot of protein

58:35 A or P. K. Highness's the south are responsible for phosphor relation

58:43 adding this P. 04 group. force for relating channels or defrost correlating

58:49 is a function of hospital basis. kindnesses appeal for foster to cIS.

58:56 . Phosphor really take the phosphate group and this balance of course formulating and

59:03 for leading the channels is very important regulating the receptor channels and ion channels

59:10 regulating downstream secondary messenger cascades. So the same molecule binds to alpha two

59:18 and alpha two receptors linked to inhibitory stimulatory and inhibitory G protein G.

59:25 . The function of the G. to inhibit a general cyclist function and

59:33 the amount of psycho campion, reduce amount of protein kind they say

59:39 Now you can imagine this massive neuron that has all of these receptors

59:46 Some of them could be located next each other, some of them farther

59:50 away. One of them is pushing system to produce more cycling camping including

59:56 . A another one is inhibiting or away from making more cycling campy more

60:04 eggs. So you have these spatial of these neurotransmitters. The molecules get

60:11 and binds to the receptors. Through jeopardy in a couple of cascades is

60:15 cellular regulation of Pioneer systems hospitals is balance of these kind of cases and

60:21 possible relation and defaults for relation of channel and affects all the way into

60:27 transcription factors inside there itself. Now is what I talked about earlier this

60:38 , we'll put a lot of things perspective Now norepinephrine is not produced in

60:46 and it is not produced in the cortex and this is not produced in

60:52 sarah dour glutamate is Jabba is, all over. You'll find excitatory glutamate

61:02 . Salento hit the campus and the lobe you'll find occipital, parietal

61:08 frontal lobe. Everyone. So their as you saw by neurons. Very

61:15 so ubiquitously throughout different brain structures. is not the case for a

61:22 There's an european african and the nucleus produces norepinephrine is locust civilians right?

61:30 blue nucleus the blue locus focuses site is a collection of South that is

61:37 for the same or similar function. this function of this nucleus of local

61:43 . It sounds like a gladiator saying be a movie name. Look civilians

61:50 serious will release norepinephrine through its projections these projections are wide and far.

61:58 so these arrows indicate all of the throughout the cortex and cerebellum and even

62:04 the spinal cord where norepinephrine is going go through. It will have external

62:12 from these brainstem nuclei odd that will lee innovate. The cortex. Sub

62:19 areas and spinal cord and cerebellum and were up enough and onto these

62:25 And so these neurons will then have author or two receptors. May be

62:30 . Maybe both. And this is a lot of times is referred to

62:34 a sprinkler system because there is no pathway. One specific ending to the

62:42 is going from here to argue with there and it stops rather it seems

62:47 just spread the love all throughout different circuits. Serotonin is produced by rafei

62:59 . And if you look at these rafei nuclei here, the sparkle rafei

63:05 will project into basil ganglia. Will into the cortex, frontal cortex exhibit

63:11 cortex will project them to the Same story. But you will not

63:17 a selling cerebellum that synthesizes serotonin. going to be synthesized in these very

63:25 nuclei in the brainstem and the wrath nuclear. The ones that are on

63:30 and purple. We'll send their projections the cortex and cerebellum. The ones

63:36 are shown in green. Well we'll their serotonin projections into the spinal cord

63:44 and then to the periphery. Does change a little bit. Your perspective

63:53 how you would want to have therapeutic to some of the neurological disorders that

64:00 actually need to target specific parts of brain. But when somebody takes a

64:09 , it only targets if you're talking a single Colin prolonging acetylcholine, right

64:16 look at a simple coding expression right in the green. You have magna

64:20 basal forebrain. My single program is and you have a silicone in particular

64:29 and lateral door. So take mental . That's it. It's not not

64:37 but you can see the projections out this house will go there broadly and

64:42 Colleen is dominating the prefrontal frontal cortex so lack of that will start affecting

64:49 functions. And if it's dominating the circus it will affect other functions.

64:56 frontal cortex, cognition, planning executive and then hippocampus it will start affecting

65:06 , emotions. All of these are be different things depending on the structures

65:10 they will have different receptors and they're in their own circuits inside the

65:16 So you can see the histamine is here to better monitor nucleus ventral take

65:23 area and substantial *** will produce So if you have dopamine dysfunction.

65:31 you're looking at a loss of cells dysfunction in the cells in this brain

65:37 but don't kill upon. Thine already about it local. Surely is already

65:41 about Iraqi nuclear. Already talked about serotonin. These are all their good

65:46 questions actually you know they are. finally we'll discuss linda cannabinoids. Okay

65:55 maybe we're pushing a little bit of here but it's very important that we

66:01 why we singled out. And the and why we actually singled out the

66:08 is not just oxide and carbon monoxide most of the things that we talked

66:13 this particular release crease line optically binding the fasten optic receptors and this is

66:18 we call interrogate signaling from prison object personal. And these molecules nitrous oxide

66:26 carbon monoxide and the cannabinoids. They're because they are not stored in the

66:32 . There are also different because in case of all of them. But

66:35 will use an example of endocannabinoid here there is a lot of activity in

66:41 glutamate or gaba. Ergic synapses. there is a lot of deep polarization

66:46 these pre synaptic neurons there's going to pasta Matic activation of influx of

66:51 Matic calcium which will turn on the of endocannabinoid boston optical, they're not

66:58 in the vesicles so they will travel the plasma membranes or lipid soluble.

67:04 under cannabinoids such as anandamide and two G to a abdominal glycerol. They

67:11 travel retro greatly and buying to the their receptors are located prison optically so

67:18 function is retrograde function in affecting the synaptic neurons. When under Cannavino is

67:26 two CB 1 receptors that are located neurons they're linked to G protein coupled

67:34 and they will control the calcium They will close the calcium channel recall

67:39 calcium influx and calcium channel activation is necessary thing for vesicular fusion a neurotransmitter

67:49 Therefore by retro greatly regulating CB one and the cannabinoids regulate the release of

67:59 and Gaba. Or they suppress the of glutamate and Gaba. And therefore

68:06 referred to as deep polarization induced suppression inhibition when there is a lot of

68:11 polarization prison optically. And this far neuron produces under cannabinoids. It will

68:21 greatly through CB one receptor activation suppress inhibition by suppressing the vesicular binding and

68:30 release. It can do that for excited to the synopsis to so deep

68:36 . Blue Dome eight. A lot calcium here and the cannabinoids binding to

68:42 juan closing calcium will regulate glutamate So and the cannabinoids in the brain

68:50 the NHL and cll nitrous oxide and monoxide. They have their respect the

68:57 on the pre synaptic terminals of neurons they travel retro greatly to pre synaptic

69:04 and regulates synaptic transmission to the G coupled receptors here. There's also CB

69:12 receptors. So we have a whole on under cannabinoid system. You're going

69:15 leave. They're smart knowing a lot things CB two receptors are predominantly expressed

69:21 Leo's health and in particular micro glial . And as I already mentioned earlier

69:28 one of the functions of microbial cells control of information and release of pro

69:35 cytokines You can think of CB one system it needs to be awoken with

69:42 lot of activity. Once it's awoken the cannabinoids through CB one receptor system

69:48 control fast neural transmission and will balance and inhibition and through binding to glia

69:57 two receptors. And the cannabinoids will slower processes such as grill functions,

70:06 functions, cytokine release. So again temporal scales. CB one receptor,

70:14 is also can be bound by THC tetrahydrocannabinol. Delta the ntc delta man

70:25 is a phyto cannabinoids. Andrew cannabinoids produced endogenous lee Fito produced by

70:33 THC is produced by plants and it will bind to CB one receptors.

70:39 will also buy into cannabinoid receptors to another function of CB one receptors is

70:46 only regulating this fast gabon glutamate synaptic , but by new york under cannabinoids

70:55 CB one receptors, Ananda is a . Sand script gives a good

71:01 This is the runner's high that is by the production of endocannabinoid. Is

71:07 ananda THC binding to CB one receptors various levels will cause ananda or

71:16 That is often referred to as the fact and some people will say psycho

71:21 intoxicating but the crack board is a effect of psychoactive effect is changing the

71:29 that your psyche is working and we talk about doping my etcetera. Had

71:35 hydrogen avenue and Canada's plant does not delta nine THC cannabis plant is not

71:47 in its raw green form it produces nine THC a the civic form of

71:54 THC which is non psychoactive non so eating raw green cannabis plant does

72:03 get one high. So THC a to be converted into THC delta nine

72:12 to be psychoactive. And that is by heating the plan. Typically cannabis

72:18 heating it, smoking it vaporizing it in the production process when it's being

72:23 , extracted and sold and shoes and on. But the plant itself is

72:30 innocent actually. I don't know why is being punished so much now.

72:35 needs to be reviewed and punished? maybe the guys down the street and

72:40 around selling delta eight THC. That's cautionary word again, don't bother with

72:50 stuff that is unknown. Delta eight a synthetic, is a semi synthetic

72:58 that is produced from a natural cannabinoid . So it doesn't come naturally in

73:04 plant and it's not naturally extracted from plant. But rather you have to

73:09 through a separate chemical processing to change double bond information between carbon eight and

73:16 versus carbon nine and 10 to move double bond to make it delta

73:22 There's a lot of stuff we don't about sending synthetic process. There is

73:27 enzyme in the plant that synthesizes Delta . There is no enzyme that synthesizes

73:33 nine. There's enzyme that synthesizes delta THC. A but there is no

73:39 eight THC a. That's how we it doesn't come from the planet.

73:45 , so these are all very interesting . I think that are very

73:49 I'm going to stop here because I'm over time a little bit. Thank

73:52 for being here. Have a great and I will see everyone on

73:58 My apologies, but I have to out of the classroom. So if

74:01 have any questions hold on to them also expect your exams to be released

74:08 friday afternoon. Okay, So take of guys see you everyone on
