.(inhibitory)




why .is .the .brain .a .critical .target .for .toxicants? .- .correct .answer. . . . .important .for
.maintaining .physiological .operations .of .the .body; .is .very .active .metabolically, .making .it

.highly .sensitive .to .toxicants .that .interfere .with .energy .metabolism




Describe .the .BBB's .structure .and .function .- .correct .answer. . . . .endothelial .cells
.surrounded .by .astrocytes .(provide .and .add .a .layer .of .protection .against .foreign

.molecules) .which .encapsulate .capillaries .in .the .brain .by .forming .tight .junctions .between

.cells, .preventing .diffusion .of .bloodborne .molecules .into .the .nervous .system- .BUT .cannot

.prevent .passive .diffusion




what .happens .if .the .BBB .is .compromised? .- .correct .answer. . . . .toxins .that .are .small, .highly
.lipid .soluble, .non .polar .(like .glucose .and .amino .acids) .can .take .advantage .of .these

.systems .of .passive .diffusion .and .be .moved .across .the .BBB .in .active .manner- .if .toxin .gets

.into .BBB .it .may .not .be .able .to .leave, .so .it .exerts .its .toxic .effects .there




What .types .of .molecules .can .easily .pass .through .the .BBB? .- .correct .answer. . . . .small,
.highly .lipid .soluble, .non-polar .molecules




in .terms .of .the .BBB, .what .does .the .toxin .pralidoxime .do? .- .correct .answer. . . . .is .an
.antidote .for .organophosphate .poisoning- .cannot .cross .the .BBB .and .therefore .is .effective

.in .the .peripheral .but .not .central .nervous .system




in .terms .of .the .BBB, .what .does .MPTP .do? .- .correct .answer. . . . .a .compound .that .is
.metabolized .in .the .brain .to .an .ionized .form




What .are .points .in .the .energy .requirements .diagram .where .interrupting .normal
.biochemical .pathways .might .result .in .disrupting .the .production .of .ATP? .- .correct .answer. .

.aerobic .metabolism .or .to .conditions .that .induce .hypoxia .will .hit .the .nervous .system .hard
