Epinephrine has to cross the cell membrane to bind to its receptor in the cytoplasm. True or False

Biology
1 answer:
Vinil7 [7]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The statement is false.

Explanation:

Epinephrine (also known as adrenaline) is a hormone and a neurotransmitter produced by the adrenal glands, it helps to regulate cellular energy metabolism and increases the heart rate.

Epinephrine adheres to certain receptors that are exposed on the surface of a large number of body cells. This receptor, called beta-adrenergic, is a receptor that is embedded in the plasma membranes of these cells. Adrenaline does not penetrate the cell, instead, joining for a short period of time to its receptor, induces it to release biochemical signals to the cytoplasm of cells. This steric change, affects the configuration of the cytoplasmic domain of the protein, this is the "link" of the receptor that protrudes in the cytoplasm.

Duration of hypotension before initiation of effective antimicrobial therapy is the critical determinant of survival in human se
nydimaria [60]

The goal is to find out how often effective antimicrobial therapy is delayed after the start of persistent or recurrent hypotension in septic shock and how this affects mortality.

Design: A cohort research that was conducted in retrospect between July 1989 and June 2004.

Setting: Ten hospitals (four academic, six community) and fourteen critical care units (four medical, four surgical, and six combined medical/surgical) located in Canada and the United States.

Patients: The 2,731 adult patients with septic shock listed in their medical records.

Measurements and key findings: Survival to hospital discharge served as the primary outcome indicator. A survival percentage of 79.9% was found when an antibiotic efficacious for isolated or suspected infections was administered within the first hour of verified hypotension. Over the following 6 hours, each hour of antibiotic delivery delay was linked to an average 7.6% decline in survival. When compared to obtaining treatment within the first hour after the beginning of persistent or recurrent hypotension, the in-hospital mortality rate was considerably higher by the second hour (odds ratio 1.67; 95% confidence range, 1.12-2.48). The single best predictor of outcome in multivariate analysis (which included Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II score and treatment factors) was time to the start of effective antimicrobial therapy. It took 6 hours on average to start effective antimicrobial therapy (25-75th percentile, 2.0-15.0 hrs).

Conclusions: In adult patients with septic shock, effective antibiotic therapy during the first hour of confirmed hypotension was related with enhanced survival to hospital discharge. Only 50% of patients with septic shock got efficient antimicrobial therapy within 6 hours of being diagnosed with proven hypotension, despite a steady rise in fatality rate with increasing delays.

<h3>What is septic shock?</h3>

Septic shock is a potentially fatal illness that develops after an infection when your blood pressure drops to an unsafely low level. The infection might be brought on by any kind of bacterium.
