The blood-brain barrier requires special transporters to move amino acids and vitamins into the brain.

The BBB divides membrane transport proteins into two groups: uptake transporters and efflux transporters.

Multiple uptake transporters at the BBB are in charge of moving solutes from the bloodstream into the endothelial cells, where they eventually pass through the basolateral membrane into the brain.

Passive yet saturable GLUT1 transporters that are present in both the luminal and abluminal membranes of endothelial cells mediate glucose transport across the blood-brain barrier.

Abstract. AATs are membrane-bound transport proteins that facilitate the entry and exit of amino acids from cells or cellular organelles. AATs play a variety of physiological roles in intracellular energy metabolism, anabolic and catabolic processes, acid-base balance, neurotransmission, and other areas.

Is the following statement true or false? the most frequent sign and symptom of a developing pulmonary embolus is tachypnea and

Rainbow [258]

The statement is True.

Dyspnea has a multi-factorial origin, resulting from bronchospasm or vasospasm, disturbances in pulmonary circulation, immobility or diminished respiratory excursion of the diaphragm, atelectasia and/or pulmonary infarction, anoxia, or impairment of cardiac function.

Dyspnea, chest pain, and cough are the most frequent symptoms of Pulmonary Embolism(PE), while fever, tachycardia, abnormal pulmonary signs, and peripheral vascular collapse are the most common physical findings.

Pulmonary embolism (PE) occurs when a blood clot gets stuck in an artery in the lung, blocking blood flow to part of the lung. Blood clots most often start in the legs and travel up through the right side of the heart and into the lungs. This is called deep vein thrombosis (DVT).

Clot in the lung circulation (pulmonary embolus): Breathlessness is usually sudden and associated with rapid breathing and may be accompanied by chest pain.
