  2. Vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vasodilator-stimulated_p...

    Vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein (VASP) is a member of the Ena-VASP protein family.Ena-VASP family members contain an N-terminal EVH1 domain that binds proteins containing E/DFPPPPXD/E motifs and targets Ena-VASP proteins to focal adhesions cell membranes.

  3. Vasopressin receptor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vasopressin_receptor

    V 2 receptor (V 2 R) differs from V 1 R primarily in the number of sites susceptible to N-linked glycosylation; the V 1 R has sites at both the amino-terminus and at the extracellular loop, whereas the V 2 R has a single site at the extracellular amino-terminus.

  5. Energy flow (ecology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_flow_(ecology)

    There are two major food chains: The primary food chain is the energy coming from autotrophs and passed on to the consumers; and the second major food chain is when carnivores eat the herbivores or decomposers that consume the autotrophic energy. [16] Consumers are broken down into primary consumers, secondary consumers and tertiary consumers.

  6. Protein structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protein_structure

    Protein structure is the three-dimensional arrangement of atoms in an amino acid-chain molecule. Proteins are polymers – specifically polypeptides – formed from sequences of amino acids, which are the monomers of the polymer. A single amino acid monomer may also be called a residue, which indicates a repeating unit of a polymer.

  7. High-molecular-weight kininogen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-molecular-weight...

    High-molecular-weight kininogen (HMWK or HK) is a circulating plasma protein which participates in the initiation of blood coagulation, and in the generation of the vasodilator bradykinin via the kallikrein-kinin system. HMWK is inactive until it either adheres to binding proteins beneath an endothelium disrupted by injury, thereby initiating ...

  8. Vasopressin (medication) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vasopressin_(medication)

    Although both vasopressors, vasopressin and epinephrine differ in that vasopressin does not have direct effects on cardiac contractility as epinephrine does. [18] Thus, vasopressin is theorized to be of increased benefit over epinephrine in cardiac arrest due to its properties of not increasing myocardial and cerebral oxygen demands. [18]

  9. Cushing reflex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cushing_reflex

    Cushing reflex (also referred to as the vasopressor response, the Cushing effect, the Cushing reaction, the Cushing phenomenon, the Cushing response, or Cushing's Law) is a physiological nervous system response to increased intracranial pressure (ICP) that results in Cushing's triad of increased blood pressure, irregular breathing, and bradycardia.
