INTRODUCTION This assignment is about the study of the effect of agonist and different concentration on guinea pig ileum and it will consist of method, graph results and discussion. Drug is defined as a chemical that has both biological and pharmacological effects on human. Its branch is pharmacology which can be divided into two branches namely pharmacodynamics and pharmaco kinetics. (C. Stephen and W. Robin (2010)) Pharmaco dynamic is about what drug does to the body and pharmaco kinetics is the study of what the body does to the drug. Drugs may produce certain effects on the cardiac muscles example ephedrine may increase heartbeat, stimulation of nerve ending in the nervous system is caused by amphetarine drug which produces changes in …show more content…

In this experiment, a programmed guinea pig ileum was used because it stimulates effects of various drugs on guinea pig ileum and has similar digestive system as humans so it will be better to study the effects of drugs on guinea pig ileum. Aim: The Aim is to obtain dose response data for agonist and calculate for ED50 and PA2 values. Secondly, to observe the effects of agonists and three different concentration of an antagonists in guinea pig ileum. Method: The organ bath file was opened and we examined tissue type and Agonist and Antagonists of different drugs which were available. Guinea pig ileum was selected as tissue type and Acetyl choline as agonists. Then different amount of acetylcholine were added to the organ bath which produced different results and finally, a log – dose response curve for acetyl- choline was constructed with the X axis corresponding to drug dose (Drug concentration) and the Y axis corresponding to response (gms). Then we calculated for (ED50) and (ECR) with the help of the graph. RESULTS FOR ACETYLCHOLINE AND NON …show more content…

After 90 seconds a second washout occurs. At 180 seconds the length of the guinea pig ileum is reset to 2cm (note. The aforementioned steps are called the 3 minute cycle). Another dose of acetylcholine is added which follows the 3 minute cycle, however the concentration is increased by 1 x 10⁻⁸ M . This is repeated until the maximum response of acetylcholine

William McKim in chapters 1, 2, 3, 5 and 14 looks at some basic pharmacology, research design and the behavioral analysis of drug effects, tolerance withdrawal, sensitization and conditioning of drug effects, dependence addiction and the self administration of drugs as well as antidepressants and mood stabilizers. A drug in its most basic form is defined as “a substance that alters the physiology of the body” (p. 1) and is comprised of a chemical name, a generic name and trade name. The chemical name is used by chemists to identify what the molecules of a drug looks like while the generic name is a shorter version of the chemical name. The trade name on the other hand, is the property of the company that sells the drug. The effect of a drug

Loperamide is a potent Mu-opioid receptor agonist [13, 15] that acts on the myenteric plexus of the gut wall. It inhibits acetylcholine release from the myenteric plexus and inhibits the peristalsis. It also increases the tone of anal sphincter. Loperamide also inhibits the secretions directly by interacting with calmodulin, this may be responsible for the anti diarrheal action. [16] Activating the Mu receptor prolongs the orocecal and colonic transit times by disrupting the gut’s electrical activity, increasing gut capacity, and delaying the passage of fluids through the small intestine, it has no direct effect on absorption [17] and when used to manage patients with ileostomy diarrhea investigators have obtained significant reduction in faecal loss, improvement in electrolytes and fluid balance have with loperamide therapy.

The reason for this is that equines are particularly sensitive to atropine and related tropane alkaloids. Being hindgut fermenters, the alkaloids are absorbed as the contaminated feed passes through the stomach. The mechanism of action of Datura plant after ingestion is that muscarinic receptor antagonists compete with acetylcholine (ACh) for a common binding site on the muscarinic receptors and thus block the action of ACh at muscarinic neuro effector sites on smooth and cardiac muscle, gland cells, in peripheral ganglia and in the central nervous system (CNS). In general they cause little blockade at nicotinic receptor sites (Brown and Taylor, 2001). Datura intoxication produce hyperthermia, tachycardia, painful photophobia and the presence of pronounced amnesia have been reported (Freye and Enno, 2009).

They promote live lean weight gain by repartitioning nutrients inside the body (5), decreasing fat content whilst increasing the muscle mass. They are safe for human consumption, allow for less feed, water, land and fuel usage with the same weight gain. However, there is a high incidence of death seen in cattle given beta agonists (7), and there is a current study with regards to their negative effects on joints (6). They are also known to affect the behaviour of animals negatively. There is a need for better alternatives to the abovementioned and further options will be discussed

An organ bath experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of agonist, histamine on guinea pig ileum (GPI) and how the antagonists, mepyramine and SIPBSDrug A affect the GPI’s response (smooth muscle contractions). A GPI simulation was conducted to compare the potencies and nature of antagonists against histamine. The control Rmax and EC50 of histamine without antagonist were 16.49gms and 2.093 x 10-7M respectively. The concentration-response curves were shifted to right parallelly and EC50 increased while Rmax remained constant when mepyramine or SIPBSDrug A was added. Besides, both antagonists showed linear graphs in Schild plot, indicating that they acted as reversible competitive antagonists.

Introduction: Myelomeningocele , commonly known as Spina Bifida, is a birth defect in which the spinal cord does not develop properly due to incomplete closure of the neural tube at 28 days of gestation. The overlying bones and skin are incompletely formed and the underdeveloped area of the spinal cord is exposed on the surface of the back. It is the most common multicomplex birth defect affecting the central nervous system that results in permanent disability . With advances in treatment modalities, technologies and scientific breakthroughs, persons with spina bifida in the US are living well into adulthood. Myelomeningocele management includes life -long comprehensive neurologic, urologic, musculoskeletal , skin and habiliation management.

Antagonists of ion channels are substances that bind into the pores of these channels and block their activity. Since the flow of ions through the channels is blocked, the changes in the electrochemical gradient surrounding the membrane cause changes in transmission of signals. This can alter the transmission of nerve impulses as well as bring about other effects in the body like muscle contractions, heart rate, etc. Examples of channel blockers include Calcium channel blockers, Potassium channel blockers, Chloride channel blockers and Sodium channel

Tolerance is caused due to the ability of brain to adapt to or compensate for the presence of a chemical. The development of tolerance after being repeatedly exposed to a particular drug can be explained through two possible biological processes. One of the processes involves a decline in the concentration of the particular drug at the effector site due to changes in the distribution, excretion, absorption and metabolism of the drug. The second process involves changes in the sensitivity towards a drug due to adaptive changes which diminish the earlier effects of a drug. The nervous system has the ability to adapt and as a result, reduces the earlier effects of a drug through the use of two methods.
