00:00 Okay so what we discussed is the bunch of line um and we discussed

00:07 bunch of line and toxin um uh targets the protein protein complex and this

00:19 by targeting the fusion of the vesicular to the membrane protein. It prevents

00:26 exocet ketosis and neurotransmitter release. And we discussed that there are different substances

00:34 different um animals produced by bacteria produced microorganisms are found in their venom and

00:45 produced by humans organophosphates that can target only the vesicular release of acetylcholine liam

00:52 also the boston advocacy. So cold or the activity that happens the breakdown

01:01 aceto Colin in the synaptic cleft. we stopped uh these two slides where

01:08 discussed the excitatory Boston optic potential and really compared it to the employee potential

01:14 you recall we said that employee potential is found that the neuromuscular junction in

01:20 the skeletal muscle. Um uh we that this employee potential is a very

01:27 deep polarization of about 70 mill involves this very large deep polarization will always

01:33 up in the twitch of the We said that in the neuromuscular junction

01:38 the civil Colleen is released in this junction it binds the acetylcholine receptors and

01:45 there is a quantum of these acetylcholine molecules that will buy into these post

01:51 receptors and these receptors are receptor So they're ligand gated channels and those

01:58 will open and they will dip polarize plasma member of the muscle cell posson

02:05 itself and will then deeper within these falls there are smart educated sodium channels

02:12 those would be necessary to boost the phase of the action potential followed by

02:18 of calcium. And we also talked is that this action with the control

02:23 you see in the muscle Is much longer in duration than it is between

02:30 . So the dynamics of this action duration is 10-15 to 20 times longer

02:37 skeletal even in cardiac muscle cells. what we talked about is uh

02:46 P. S. P. When neurotransmitter that is glutamate that is

02:50 here and boston optic receptors for glutamate there ligand gated receptor channels and they

02:59 open up one's glutamate as we see prison optically and binding of glutamate to

03:05 glutamate receptor channels will allow an influx sodium. So you will have this

03:11 polarization which is referred to as P. S. P. And

03:16 stands for excitatory post synaptic potential. so these are transparent gated ion

03:23 But this instead of looking at the junction here, we're looking at neuronal

03:31 . And unlike employee potentials that are 70 million balls or so in

03:38 E. P. S. S. Are graded potentials. They

03:41 in amplitude anywhere between behalf a mill excitation to all the way to the

03:49 faction potential generation 20 to 30 million deep polarization and that all depends on

03:55 number of the synapses that would be this past synaptic neuron from which you

04:00 recording. So he's a greater So there are much smaller and there's

04:05 consequence you need to engage at least or more excited to synapses in order

04:12 de polarize this post synaptic cell So that would be adjacent synapses d

04:18 to reach the threshold faction potential So glutamate binding to glutamate receptor channels

04:25 cause deep polarization in the form of to passing out the potential. But

04:30 the inhibitory synapses the release of gaba mu negatory kassid and binding of Gabba

04:37 Gaba receptor channel will allow for influx fluoride. An influx of fluoride will

04:43 hyper polarization in the plasma number P. S fee is a greater

04:48 polarization. The more synopsis are The larger the amplitude of the

04:55 P. S. B. Is to be. I. DsB is

04:58 same way the more inhibitory synapses are this past synaptic neuron. The larger

05:04 graded this inhibitory personality potential will be of Gabba Gabba receptor channel. Also

05:11 lot of influx of fluoride. And the influx of negative charge into the

05:16 side of Seoul off neuron causes the hyper polarization of the plasma numbering in

05:23 form of the inhibitory synaptic potential So we talked about how these channels

05:34 ligand binds to these channels. And are of course subtypes of legitimate

05:39 And there are subtypes of Galba channels you learn. But what is demonstrated

05:44 this particular diagram is binding of a to this receptor opens up the channel

05:54 channel. Okay, that same protein a receptor to login. It has

05:58 binding side to the slogan and it's a channel. But there are metal

06:04 signaling pathways in the brain. And which case we talked about when neurotransmitter

06:11 to the receptor, that receptor is linked to G protein and G pro

06:19 gets catalyst gets activated essentially and this protium can now affect nearby iron

06:28 They can gate nearby ion channels. these are this type of signaling is

06:35 or metabolic tropic in i on a signaling molecule binds to the receptor and

06:42 receptor is also a channel whether it's her, it's a receptor is also

06:47 channel or inhibitor. It's a receptor also a channel. But in medical

06:53 signaling, binding of the neurotransmitter never up this particular protein but instead initiates

07:01 cascade of events through this G protein intracellular early that can effect and that

07:09 open or even close nearby ion So these are G protein gated ion

07:16 because they're gating or their key to to close them or to open them

07:24 through G protean activation. Likewise, protein signaling can affect enzymes inside the

07:32 and set off secondary messenger cascades and can be affecting all different organelles inside

07:41 south, all the way down to nucleus of the cells. So depending

07:50 whether this neurotransmitter is I am a memorable tropic. The same neurotransmitter can

07:56 a different effect in the same cells two cells can actually co express ira

08:03 and metabolic tropic receptors. This has neurotransmitter different effects on different cells because

08:11 same neurotransmitter may exert a different Different cells have a different subset um

08:19 iona tropic or metal tropic channels that expressed and you'll see better understand this

08:26 . We talk about this diagram here particular. So this leads us back

08:34 understanding the first discovered neurotransmitter molecule. by a synthesis degradation pathways locally.

08:43 um salah Colin is of course was in your muscular junction is released by

08:50 neurons. It's also in uh peripheral system and greedy. Angry on in

08:57 pathetic. You're ons and of course a lot of acetylcholine in the brain

09:04 expression of acetylcholine is not throughout the cortex or different structures in the brain

09:10 nuclear but rather confined to a few areas in the brain. So uh

09:18 local name is synthesized on acetyl coa and Colleen come together and chat,

09:28 or CH 80 is an abbreviation for to settle transfers. So silk.

09:35 and Colin shot on the Seattle Colin formed mrs Sydell Colin is now

09:43 Remember we said you need the secular . So they need to be transporters

09:48 you need neurotransmitter present transporters will settle transporter will upload the bicycle with acetylcholine

09:58 . And then when acetylcholine is released there is excess psychosis, when there's

10:05 of the vesicles to the membrane and of acetylcholine acetylcholine combined plus in optically

10:13 the cns to both types of some that are ligand gated receptor channels

10:21 this is the iron, a tropic nick, acetylcholine receptor and some that

10:28 G protein coupled and this blue and see it in subsequent slides. Also

10:34 blue acetylcholine receptor is meta but tropical and a acetylcholine receptor to the kucinich

10:44 receptor is going to be excited. and most currently receptors through the G

10:49 coupled through the G protein coupled It can be inhibitory to the cells

10:58 that's referring to the previous slide where same substance acetylcholine can have two effects

11:06 within the same neuron if that neuron co express nicotine nick and muscular receptors

11:10 can be like in a little tug against each other. Now when a

11:16 colon is released into the snapping cloth is degraded. It is degraded by

11:23 c local investor race is broken down cyclical industries into acetic acid and into

11:30 and then coleene is transported back into pre synaptic terminals with sodium co transporter

11:39 Colin and Macedo co come together inside south they chat and your aceto Colin

11:45 is made and it's uploaded and it through that cycle. So whenever there

11:49 a demand for release or activation of ergic neurons release of acetylcholine acetylcholine.

11:59 it binds to the receptors very the remaining molecules within the snap,

12:03 collapse will be broken down Now. I have here is a big

12:10 It's a big cross red cross that medication for Alzheimer's and what does that

12:19 ? Well, most of the Alzheimer on the market, with the exception

12:25 couple target a single Colin pathway. so it happens that Colin ergic signaling

12:33 little Colin neurons die early in the onset of the Alzheimer's disease. And

12:41 to prolong what is called by availability prolong the presence of acetylcholine in the

12:51 laugh. These medications are a citadel , nestor race inhibitors or calling mysteries

13:01 and some of the pharmaceutical commercials since rates inhibitors. Okay, since see

13:08 am. So most of the Alzheimer are satirical investor ace inhibitors. And

13:16 does that do? Well, if inhibit a seal colonel nestor is

13:23 that means you're not breaking down the Colin at the same rate and that

13:31 an opportunity for Seattle Colin that is remaining in Alzheimer's because it's pathology so

13:38 very little subtle Colin neurons are there's some that are still left,

13:44 lowest settle Colin tone if you And so to boost the stone,

13:51 you can do is really just to the presence or the by availability the

13:59 of the single column in the synoptic and hoping that the remaining acetylcholine neurons

14:06 synapses are still going to have a bit of the signaling faculty left active

14:13 functional. So when we talked about phosphates in this slide here and we

14:22 organophosphates and they said a C. . E. Organophosphates like nerve gas

14:27 there also see local industries inhibitors? it goes back to our conversations that

14:35 depends how you prepare different substances and can use these different substances for um

14:43 reasons, medical reasons, for warfare . Uh And so nerve gases are

14:54 a cyclical industries inhibitors. Um And much of a single column can send

15:04 muscles into tetanus and can lock up diaphragm and can suffocate you. So

15:12 not an effect that will be felt nerve gases in the C.

15:17 S. But it's all of the and the motor neurons that release acetylcholine

15:23 will be affected. So now you the mechanism behind all farmers medications.

15:31 I told you it would be good you have like a page that you

15:35 yourselves for Alzheimer's disease. So now can add additional information onto that page

15:43 that is that a zero Colin signaling impaired. That Colin ergic neurons are

15:52 and their neuro degenerating and that Alzheimer's , the main ones on the market

16:01 inhibit acetylcholine accessories and by inhibiting the industries, they increase the availability of

16:08 molecule and the remaining seed of Colin pathways. Okay, so this is

16:16 energy pharmacology, a suit of Colin nicotine receptor. And that receptor is

16:24 channel and it's called nicotine. It nicotine will also buying to this receptor

16:34 and it is going to open this channel just like a single colon was

16:40 to and therefore it is called an . So something that opens the channel

16:46 activates the channel, it's called an or a modulator. Something that closes

16:53 channel. Okay. Or impedes with opening of the channel is an

17:02 So nicotine and nicotine. Acetylcholine receptor its own agonist which is nicotine in

17:10 own antagonist which is cure ari uh sarinic receptor that should be here and

17:18 that with a g protein coupled It's a metaphor tropic receptor and it

17:24 has its own distinct agonist which is corinne an antagonist which is a

17:30 Okay, so there's a pharmacology, is the neuro pharmacology. This is

17:38 we can close and open these channels this is how you can manipulate nicotine

17:45 , I don't know, tropic direct versus most koranic interact metal tropic

17:53 Okay, we'll talk more about whatever signaling and some and some other

18:00 So let me uh pauses for a year and resuming the record in addition

18:09 the neurotransmitter systems and major neurotransmitters, acids, neurotransmitters and means and

18:14 We also talked about if you call . We also talked about 80

18:19 and the Dennison and we also talked endocannabinoid. So if you are not

18:25 with any of this material somehow you those elections, you may want to

18:28 the video because it's a lot of interesting stuff that we've discussed now.

18:33 you recall, we talked about amino and these are glued remains and glutamate

18:39 Gaba and also lie scene acetylcholine and and cata cola means. Do you

18:48 what they fall under? They fall a means. Okay. And so

18:54 going to review these. So we about the means like a seagull

18:59 Now how do you identify these neurotransmitter in the brain or the body?

19:06 are two techniques that are quite common doing that. And we've alluded to

19:10 actually, one of them is artistic chemistry where you produce an antibody

19:18 that antibody is tagged with invisible marker that antibody is built against a specific

19:29 . So you can isolate a neurotransmitter one animal and you can inject it

19:33 another animal such as uh from rodents a rabbit and the rabbit will have

19:43 reaction immune reaction producing an antibody. you can isolate that antibody and tag

19:49 with a fluorescent marker. And then can have an antibody that is specific

19:54 a neurotransmitter candidate? let's say a company. And that can be applied

20:02 the tissue on the brain tissue. it can be applied on the entire

20:07 of a young or developing organism uh organism of course. And you can

20:14 the cells that have this specific So you apply this antibody with the

20:24 marker and only the cells. Only cells that will have this green square

20:30 is a neurotransmitter candidate will pick up bind to this antibody and will light

20:36 those cells. And so you can use immunity is the chemistry of course

20:42 a lot of pathology studies and understanding markers inside the south so how they're

20:49 molecules, how they're changing. You stay in very small uh molecules and

20:57 at the synapses and what these molecules inside the synapses. So this is

21:03 you know history chemistry you also have situ hybridization as another technique. And

21:09 the way the cells that don't have green your transmitter candidate will never light

21:14 under a microscope. So only the that have this candidate will get stained

21:19 will line up under a microscope and ones that don't have it. They

21:23 know. Okay another technique is when have a radioactively labelled probe with the

21:33 sequence of complementary cleric assets because this basically post genomic era and you can

21:42 sequences of neglect assets for start getting strands of M. RNA messenger RNA

21:51 and you will apply this radioactive label just like you would on the tissue

21:57 with the immunity as a chemistry with probe. Now we'll have to bind

22:02 in a complementary fashion to the Is trying to messenger RNA that might

22:08 expressing something like a protein or neurotransmitter neurotransmitter receptor and so on. So

22:16 can study neurotransmitter systems very well using techniques for staining um you know it's

22:25 chemistry and the central organization and this uh and consider hybridization, sagittal section

22:33 the whole embryo of a mouth showing distribution. So wherever you see dark

22:41 there would be higher densities of this gene of interest encoding truck be tyrus

22:49 be it's not really important that you that but you understand that you can

22:54 an aerial view of the entire aerial view of the neuronal surface and

22:59 hone in and the individual neurons that the south that specifically carrying neurotransmitters and

23:06 uh neurotransmitter receptors of interest. You also even go to the level of

23:13 molecules and single synapses and visualizing We also alluded to a technique that's

23:19 mini korean. We said that this what Uggla we actually did at the

23:24 isolated the fluid from one heart applied another heart and the applied fluid had

23:32 effect of slowing down the naive heart heart. So you can actually isolate

23:40 and you can apply these neurotransmitters through pipe pads and when you apply these

23:45 they should have an equivalent. The is if you were stimulating a pre

23:50 , if this is a glutamate in pie pad that you're applying here and

23:54 liquid, this uh response from this should be equivalent very stimulated. When

24:00 stimulating a little lethargic synapse, we axon that is projecting onto this post

24:06 neuron. So this is a neurotransmitter re or neuronal or synaptic mimic Re

24:14 you may. And if you had chance to look at the article that

24:18 alluded to in class about UNQ aging . This can be done in a

24:24 specific fashion at a level of single . Using on caging using lasers and

24:32 occasion the compounds that you can actually inside the chemical cages. And some

24:37 these compounds turn out to be neurotransmitters you can isolate and even ions that

24:44 can cage. And then by pointing laser through a microscope into one very

24:49 very small area, one single. now she can on cage glutamate.

24:54 this is important technique, laser microscopy on Cajun technique because if you imagine

25:02 neurons are surrounded by fluid and And so if you apply a drug

25:07 if you apply a neurotransmitter onto this . Then this synopsis that are located

25:13 close to This pipette will be activated so will be the nearby synapses to

25:20 lesser extent and more or less it follow the diffusion laws how well the

25:25 is going to diffuse in the surroundings how many analysis? Maybe five,

25:31 10, maybe 20, maybe And with on occasion technique you can

25:35 specifically target just one area or one along the dumb drive, one single

25:41 spine. So I encourage you to at this material in the class supporting

25:48 So this slide again. But now look at it a little bit

25:52 Okay so we know I mean awesome . What is this? This is

25:57 us something about how they're being how glutamate is being synthesized and then

26:03 gamble is being synthesized. Whoa ! is a precursor to Gaba. So

26:11 major excited to a neurotransmitter is a to the major inhibitor neurotransmitter in the

26:18 . And all of the inhibitory So once it releases Gaba will contain

26:25 molecule, G. A. Or God, gamma butyric acid,

26:35 good atomic acid dicker boxers. Okay , vitamins, asset atomic acid dicker

26:44 list will turn it in together. come back to it in a

26:48 a civil coding. Great. We know this little Colleen and co and

26:53 need to chat to form a single . And then remember the molecule that

26:59 it down as the local in asteroids these are important molecules in the

27:06 Serotonin trip to fan needs Turkey has lot of trip to fan and relaxes

27:16 . It's a precursor for five hydroxy to Fan which is a precursor to

27:22 hydroxy Trip to me which is essentially molecule. And this is the synthesis

27:31 serotonin and no you will not be for serotonin and you will not be

27:35 for cata cola means. But this just to show you how some of

27:40 major molecules in the brain tire scene hydroxy this will turn tyrosine into die

27:47 phenyl Alamein which is dopa or Dopa dopa with amino acid dicker boxer

27:57 will turn into a dopamine dopamine, hydroxy Alice. So most of these

28:03 hydroxy analysis or decoder box analysis, hydroxyl, it or the dekalb

28:08 They they take the car back silly . You have dopamine and from dopamine

28:15 have norepinephrine, an epinephrine, more of the brain. And dopa or

28:21 . Dopa is a medication that is when there is dysfunction and dopamine signaling

28:29 there is lack of dopamine mints of medication and Parkinson's disease and old

28:35 So once again in this case you see that these neurotransmitter systems. As

28:40 mentioned previous lecture linked to different neurological . Dopamine will be linked to a

28:48 of motor diseases and dysfunction such as disease. And so dopamine or pharmacologically

28:59 dopa is a medication to help boost presence and production of dopamine. So

29:06 also. now learning about different not mechanisms of action but potential pharmacological strategies

29:15 will continue learning about them in the of you can block the substance that

29:21 something increased availability of that substance by is degrading enzyme here. You can

29:31 that if you supply a precursor which l dopa you will generate more dopamine

29:38 is effective. So you're not blocking instead boosting here, supplying something that's

29:44 the synthesis pathway rather than degradation on break Donald capital. Yeah this is

29:53 favorite group. I mean favorite slide . This is again a little bit

29:57 review of nicotine, egan rescreening Mhm. And this pathway is referred

30:06 a shortcut pathway uh When we talk metabolic trophic signaling and in this case

30:13 acetylcholine, sorry, binds to pseudo , mascara nick receptor uh finally you're

30:23 us that this much pain receptors meta and it's actually linked to g protein

30:28 . Yes it is. It will the data, it has different

30:34 alpha beta and gamma subunits and so of this data and gamma subunit following

30:42 binding of acetylcholine will then target nearby channels. Okay, what it can

30:50 is mustering across after binding of The muscular tonic receptor will activate a

30:58 podium and that you podium will open potassium channel. So what if you

31:08 the potassium channel potassium is going to the cell. What is going to

31:13 the outcome if the positive charge, now open potassium channel and positive potassium

31:22 leaving the sound, the cell numbering going to hyper polarized. So when

31:30 , nicotine or settle Kobe and bonds nicotine receptor. Okay, sodium well

31:39 inside. Well look at it in minute. But in most koranic receptors

31:44 have this situation where the mosque quranic , you will open the potassium channel

31:51 the hyper polarization and the shortcut pathway to the fact that there is no

31:57 intermedia is between the G pro dan the potassium channel. There's a binding

32:04 as you can see on the potassium to this, this gamma subunit of

32:08 G protein is going to attach and attaching to this channel it will change

32:14 confirmation of this channel and open channel allow for potassium to leave and hyper

32:20 neurons. What. Mhm. So and in general, what we have

32:33 realize is that neurons very intricately intertwined glial cells and not just for

32:49 not for just being a part of blood brain barrier. But this we'll

32:54 here is actually an astro site. what it shows here is another interesting

33:01 this reveals to you two. Very subject matters first of all, what

33:06 a tri apartheid synapse tri apartheid. , three parts neuron one you're on

33:15 and glia. And this is really is happening in the brain. The

33:21 a really tried apartheid. And the for it is following this example of

33:27 dermatologic signaling. So you have to is that takes glutamine and with the

33:36 line is it makes glutamate glutamine gets up into the vesicles. Glutamate gets

33:42 and then C. N. Glutamate will bind to iona trophic receptor

33:49 as well as metal but tried to with the leadership and I am a

33:56 . We remain fully staffed as well and de polarize the cells and meta

34:02 ligament receptors for the most part will an inhibitory effect on the south.

34:10 now you're seeing that this ying and of excitation and inhibition through the receptors

34:18 received the same molecule is a continuous as you talk about civil Colleen as

34:24 talk about luda mae but as you about Gaba is going to be a

34:32 different. So this glutamate once it released it doesn't stay in the synoptic

34:38 very quickly gets transported a portion of . Okay gets transported into glia,

34:46 a portion of wood and men buddha gets transported into Brianna portion into

34:53 If it gets transported into neurons it re uploaded into the classical buddha made

34:59 then this fantastical, full of with and can get released into the synoptic

35:05 but they will get transported into glia the transported and agree to will undergo

35:15 slower synthesis cycle where with gluten incentive it will become. Do you

35:25 And that glutamine will then be given these glial cells back into neurons and

35:33 neurons will take this glutamine And turn with vitamins and energy 80 p.

35:40 glutamate. Whoa. So basically neuron take care of its own glutamate.

35:50 if neuron has glia and neurons has these tripartite synapses then part of the

35:59 , not only synthesis but cycling and availability is very much dependent about what

36:07 glia is going to do. so several important concepts. Tri apartheid

36:16 glutamate receptors ion a tropic metabolic tropic signaling not just your own. Oh

36:23 also glial Somalia plays a part in overall excitatory glutamate tone in the

36:34 And how much of the excitation neurons communicate between each other. Very

36:45 So this is the pathway for cata means. And if you think about

36:51 and Gaba as fast signaling excitation inhibition when you talk about a subtle Colin

36:58 you're thinking about certain particular aspects and in the brain, certain movements,

37:05 states of the brain. If you cata colony and cyrus scene dopa,

37:13 , norepinephrine epinephrine cata cola means will follow the same cycle that will get

37:22 except for cata colony. And they rely on medical tropic signaling and they

37:30 get re up taken back through the co transporter we uploaded into the vesicles

37:36 released again. And some uh popular uh an illicit drugs. Amphetamine and

37:48 control the re uptake of cata cola . So Cata colony in plays a

37:55 in movement accelerates movement because this is , norepinephrine, epinephrine, this is

38:02 of the brain. So these are upwards of the brain if you may

38:08 typically good mood when you have uh and you alert and you're attentive,

38:14 attention. It's also of course involved many other things like visceral functions in

38:19 body. So don't forget that these are not only in the CNS but

38:24 throughout the body and the periphery and the overall oh my prosthesis and overall

38:30 of the brain and the body. so what is blocking up the re

38:36 ? Does it prolongs uh they buy , availability of category and names and

38:43 enough enough enough friends. So the , everything is movement is faster uh

38:51 attention, blah blah blah. Uh of course quite dangerous and addictive drugs

38:59 and illicit uh with uh um very when you're talking about anything that may

39:12 synthesized because we have uh covid 19 we also have an epidemic of opiates

39:21 we have an epidemic of fentaNYL and of these other things out there that

39:30 go through labs that takes synthesis that like chemicals like imagine some crusty guys

39:37 place mixing off some stuff and isolating and some tropical forest flies around and

39:54 of the stuff that gets important. illegal comes through from china, eastern

40:01 . A lot of it comes its through south America. A lot of

40:05 manufactured cocaine is manufactured but at the time for some indigenous cultures uh use

40:15 the plant of the cocoa plant. a little different from what has become

40:22 drug trade of cocaine substance. So don't know what's going on with serotonin

40:29 , appetite. Sleep learning, love , bad moon, no appetite,

40:38 sleep, no learning. So this the precursor of serotonin trip to fan

40:47 nine from Thanksgiving, everybody gets relaxed happy if the turkey has a lot

40:54 trip defending it. It's a precursor serotonin, serotonin will go through the

40:58 cycling, it will get rehab taken . And some of the more popular

41:05 medications as brand names such as PROzac they have heard would be a blocker

41:12 the serotonin re uptake and now you're seeing a common theme in the pharmacological

41:19 so you can block the re you can block the breakdown in the

41:24 of a C. Locally in you manipulate the receptor trees. Maybe you

41:29 boost it with substances that are all of these things, part of

41:34 therapeutic strategies that can be employed and diseases that would have in this case

41:39 ergic dysfunction, lack of serotonin and blocking the re uptake of certain and

41:46 can increase availability of that in the cleft, making better mood and

41:54 But you know it's interesting that a of not only natural substances not pharmaceutical

42:01 , natural substances and natural behaviors can some of these bio synthetic site cycle

42:10 and signaling in the brain, thereby the mood, the appetite,

42:17 resource functions, sexual behavior and so . So G proteins. We already

42:23 at the shortcut and the shortcut was if you activated uh must be nick

42:32 that will target potassium channels. And is a and other another illustration of

42:40 two molecules in this case we're looking norepinephrine, it's the same molecules are

42:47 two receptors. One of them is beta receptor, another is inhibitory alpha

42:52 receptor. So if there aren't enough bonds to the stimulatory receptor, It

42:58 actually activate this enzyme, a dental and from Dennison triphosphate will increase the

43:06 of cycling campy and increase the production protein kinase eight and protein kindness

43:13 Is one of the kindness system. cell and the function of kindness is

43:17 the south is to fuss for a and a lot of times when there

43:23 presence of kindnesses and there's foster relations can modulate the function of nearby receptor

43:31 and ion channels a lot of times prolonged opening of these channels but also

43:38 functions. Now that same molecule, activates inhibitory α two receptor. This

43:47 two receptor note is linked to a G protein. This is not really

43:55 up here on the left but this a stimulatory G podium or Gs this

44:04 two receptors inhibitory because it is linked an inhibitory G program or Gi complex

44:13 the function of JI complex is to identical cyclades and reduce The production of

44:23 campaign and reduce protein tiny say So is happening through secondary messengers exactly.

44:33 is a secondary messenger controlling the amount protein kindness. A One of them

44:43 pushing okay pushing to produce more second and more protein kindness A.

44:50 K. It's excited her and another is pulling away the system from producing

44:56 so it's called push pull mechanisms. is trying to stimulate the production of

45:02 and P. M. P. . Another one has seen him really

45:10 right as opposed to kindnesses. We have in the brain other molecules that

45:16 called foster rotations. So if kindnesses poorly things which means they add a

45:22 . O. For group uh hospital , defense for lead and there is

45:29 intricate balance even cellular early inside the . The presence of the receptors where

45:37 data alpha two receptors so located what you the local increases in I don't

45:43 , cyclist supporting kindness and so It was all linked and there is

45:50 logic in there and specificity to all these molecules and interactions. But this

45:56 a great example of how molecules norepinephrine influence the secondary signaling In two different

46:05 the outcome. So what is different I refer to you about these

46:13 Norepinephrine system, serotonin system and other molecule city we have been discussing

46:22 Well this is what I already mentioned you that these molecules like norepinephrine,

46:30 serotonin, they're not expressed throughout the amino acids such as glutamate gaba.

46:36 will do widely expressed throughout the brain brain stem and the spinal cord.

46:42 . But these molecules nor not enough serotonin or if you but or if

46:50 zoomed in here, there's even more . They are expressed in very specific

46:58 in the brain in this particular case norepinephrine is expressed in local civilians or

47:05 blue nucleus because when you cut it actually oxidizes on the south steak,

47:11 blue shape that you can see. so these neurons will produce more up

47:18 . And what are all of these ? All of these arrows are projections

47:22 are going to come out of this . Local Sibelius again, nucleus is

47:27 part of the brain or brain The cell said are responsible for the

47:34 similar functions. In this case. synthesizes norepinephrine and they will project the

47:42 out of local civilians throughout diffuses throughout cortex, cerebellum in the spinal

47:49 So we refer to it as a systems because uh they project very diffuse

47:57 throughout the cortical matter. Serotonin is by raffi nuclei. And so you

48:03 the serotonin raffi nuclei here shown in that will send their outputs and send

48:10 serotonin ergic Exxon all terminals essentially. what serotonin will be finals and diffused

48:16 the cortex and throughout the brain And then you have raffi nuclei that

48:23 shown him green and they will be most of the serotonin, a senator

48:29 projections in serotonin um into the into spinal cord. Okay, but this

48:37 for the C. N. Again these are very special center.

48:41 nuclei that produced these norepinephrine and serotonin . If you zoomed in here you

48:48 see a single going. So Macedo is produced by magnus, salal or

48:53 forebrain and a seal colon signaling. these neurons are dying. It will

49:03 affecting the forebrain regions but it will be affecting the regions to which acetylcholine

49:11 are projecting which is showing that it's usually have widely through the brain throughout

49:17 brain. Just like with other molecules be discussed. Okay, there's a

49:25 Colin also shown here in green and nucleus and the brains town and that

49:32 bad uncle upon team. And the dorsal to the mental nuclei that also

49:39 locally in and send the projections to areas in the brain but also diffuser

49:45 are really is here. Norepinephrine rafi for serotonin, dopamine, dental

49:53 mental area and substantial Niagara would produce to borrow mammal, every nucleus will

50:00 histamine. So there's other molecules here hypocrite in that we haven't talked about

50:06 example. But this gives you an of the difference between how the amino

50:16 are expressed throughout. You'll find prominence . Um And then all right frontal

50:23 , citadel cortex, hippocampus, parietal , temporal lobe and there will be

50:29 expression of that glutamate and synthesis and between neurons and glia all throughout.

50:38 the synthesis of these specific molecules and we're talking about is confined to these

50:47 specific synthesizing nuclei and the projections projecting throughout the brain. Andrew cannabinoids

51:04 the cannabinoids And in this slide in highlights two very important features. So

51:13 we have talked about interrogate signaling, means that pre synaptic neuron releases

51:19 glutamate or Gaba pa synaptic neuron Uh However, in the instances when

51:28 talk about gases such as nitrous oxide carbon monoxide or when we talk about

51:36 , cannabinoid molecules produced endogenous lee by cells and most of the sauce in

51:43 brain and the body. Once there heightened levels of activity there's going to

51:50 a lot of release of either glutamate Gaba when there's going to be the

51:59 of these neurotransmitters plus synaptic multi. going to be influx of calcium,

52:05 channels an activation of the enzymes that start synthesizing into cannabinoid molecules and these

52:15 molecules just like gases nitrous oxide and monoxide, they get synthesized and they

52:23 freely traverse through the membrane so lipid and just like gases they will travel

52:32 lee And mind to cannabinoid receptors that located present not frequently. So this

52:39 receptors CB one who cannabinoid receptor one the function of cannabinoid receptor is that

52:46 is g protein coupled receptor. So activating CB one receptor by releasing under

52:54 under cannabinoids retro greatly activating CB they close voltage gated calcium channels through

53:04 g protium signaling. It's a metal tropic reception. So what happens if

53:09 closely synoptic voltage gated calcium travels? is no neural transmission. Remember that

53:19 of calcium is one of the necessary because influx of calcium will allow for

53:26 vest ical to fuse with the plasma and for the neurotransmitter release. So

53:34 blocking calcium channel there is no calcium and you regulate the release of neurotransmitters

53:42 this is what endocannabinoid do the mechanisms endocannabinoid actions in the cns is to

53:49 the release of both excited to glutamate in the prohibitory Gava. And when

53:58 talk we have a whole lecture on endocannabinoid system and medical cannabinoids, You

54:06 that CB one receptors, only one , their CB two receptors and CB

54:12 receptors are predominantly expressed in glia and two receptors are dominant in michael blair

54:24 as you know, michael lee is with inflammation repair and pro inflammatory cytokine

54:34 . So and the cannabinoids such as and a mind or to a record

54:40 Glycerol to a G. They'll get by the body. They will target

54:45 one receptors on neurons and they will fast neural transmission, both excited to

54:52 inhibitory balancing excited to inhibitory neural And we'll target CB two receptors that

55:00 not shown here in glia that will concerned with slower processes such as inflammatory

55:07 such as the reactions to injury and . Delta nine THC. Tetrahydrocannabinol is

55:20 fatal cannabinoid. That means it is in the plant. And you will

55:27 so smart by the end of this that you will realize that cannabis plant

55:34 be annoyed concerned Canada's plant also derogatorily marijuana plant. That marijuana plants doesn't

55:44 produce delta nine THC. That it an acidic form of delta nine THC

55:52 delta nine THC A It actually has synthesis to synthesize THC A. Doesn't

55:59 THC. You'll be like, oh , so the cannabis plant has actually

56:06 even have THC just as THC a nine is the location of the

56:14 Now it's carbon and you will be by in town. You'll see the

56:20 stations and you'll see the centers and and Vape shops. Delta eight THC

56:28 here. So let me jump ahead this lecture that is coming in another

56:36 or so. I'll tell you that eight THC is not even produced by

56:42 plant period DELTA eight THC is converted , it's converted. Okay. And

56:57 not a good way of doing it the lab. It's synthetic essential or

57:02 synthetic because it's using a natural precursor . and with that there are many

57:09 implications. Delta eight ft see although see it as being on the

57:14 it is non regulated, there's a of unknowns. And in general stay

57:21 from synthetic cannabinoids, synthetic cannabinoids, cannabis, synthetic marijuana has nothing to

57:29 with the plant, has nothing to with phyto cannabinoids. It would be

57:34 and deadly synthetic phenomenal is um so even is a semi synthetic cannabinoid

57:43 it's not a semi synthetic because it not born from two chemicals coming together

57:48 the lives of scientists mixing it up saying here it is, but rather

57:53 taking a natural precursor, Putting that chemicals mixing it out, heating whatever

57:59 saying now we have delta eight that not regulated. And so this is

58:05 I'm getting ahead of myself for a reason. Uh deep polarization induced suppression

58:12 inhibition. What does that mean? polarization induced suppression of excitation when uh

58:18 neuronal signaling was discovered within the Where and the cannabinoids director greatly will

58:25 and pre synaptic cannabinoid receptors and will the release in particular of Galba of

58:32 neurons. So at first it was wow, it stops the release of

58:37 . It must be making people crazy of course people looked a neuroscientist like

58:43 THC delta eight THC. Tetro phenomenal hydro phenomenal does in the brain cannabinoid

58:51 THC by binding to CB one receptors not only balance gaba and glutamate excitation

58:58 is also responsible for the euphoria effect the so called high effect. Okay

59:04 activation of CB one receptors are responsible this effect. But these kind of

59:11 by the cannabinoids and buy phyto cannabinoids phyto cannabinoids they bind to CB one

59:18 , they mimic the activity of the cannabinoids and they bind to CB one

59:24 . And endocannabinoid phyto cannabinoids. Cannabinoid is applicable to both excitatory and inhibitory

59:35 . So there's a lot of deep . It is a lot of

59:40 Then cannabinoids will suppress inhibition. There's lot of deep polarization and excitatory

59:46 There's a lot of glutamate release. a lot of excitation. An endocannabinoid

59:52 suppress this excitation and that's why it's to as deep polarization induced suppression of

59:58 ambition. Deep polarization induced suppression of in reality when there is heightened levels

60:04 activity and too much activity. Cannabinoid kicks in and balances out the gaba

60:10 glutamate release. So this is very and the synthesis of under cannabinoids and

60:18 function of under cannabinoids and the brain the body is vast will cover some

60:24 it um but then the cannabinoids are very much involved in paying mediation in

60:33 of other processes and thermal regulation and overall of the body and the

60:43 Okay, so, amino acid new transmitters, glutamate. Listen, gabba

60:49 , we know it all glutamate. , the atomic acidic or box

60:54 This is God. God will take deter box. Elation means you are

60:59 this for boxing group off. so you have a blue dynamic acid

61:04 is good. Um it's an acid you take the Citigroup off when you

61:09 it into Gaba. So once all of the inhibitor into neurons that

61:13 Gaba, inhibit their neurotransmitter will have ends on God. And so you

61:18 use immunity chemistry or other means of for God. And all of the

61:24 that will show positive for God will inhibitory interneuron, wow, this is

61:30 cool. We're making a lot of . And so Okay, so is

61:35 cycling with glutamate transporters into into neurons unique to glutamate. Now, it's

61:42 happening together And also uh glial cells be involved in regulation on this.

61:50 . And you have again, transporters transport Gavin glutamate into the south and

61:55 have transporters that transport the secular gamma into the gamma vesicles and the secular

62:03 transporter into the glutamine festivals. All , so, we're going to stop

62:10 today, appreciate everyone on a short , being on zoom, apologize for

62:17 being able to be in person. be there on monday for sure.

62:20 just didn't want to. We're on , 20 minutes late and lose everyone

62:26 I may have lost some of you the first five minutes. Or if

62:29 didn't read my email early enough. any case, this lecture is recorded

62:34 deposit recording here and when we come , we'll build into greater detail into

62:40 dramaturgical glutamate neuro pharmacology. I am tropic Alpine India kind of as well

62:46 the metal with tropical We have made and you will know a lot about

62:53 and gaba signaling, acetylcholine signaling what molecules do in the brain, what

62:58 functions are and what diseases there uh or dysfunctions are associated
