Session Date
Lesson Topic
receptors and opioid receptors
Lesson Outline
Discuss analgesia-
Discuss acute and chronic pain-
Discuss endogenous secreted morphine like substances-endorphins-
Discuss binding of endorphins to specific mu receptors-
Perception of pain is in specific sensory areas of the brain.
endorphins help modify the pain
narcotic analgesics act as agonists, binding to the same receptors as endorphins, causing a decrease in perception and experience of pain.
Outline the reflex arc which allows a muscular response to a painful stimulus to occur before the perception of pain.

Lesson Comments
The lesson was one which was prompted through many questions asked by Nina. it was a lesson which flowed from information she wanted to know about, more of a pharmacology lesson than a physiology lesson. It was good
