Document Summary
Identity of a lysosome was first through biochemistry a: later identified by microscope. If the pellet in the test tube is intact, we see respiratory activity, from mitochondria. Criteria: heterophagy, autophagy, specialized (functions of lysosome that don"t undergo the same process as hetero and auto phagy) 1960s, patients were injected with curare toxin and they were found to be very sensitive to it. Patients were injected with eserine and it relieved the symptoms. In the synapse between dendrites and a muscle, ach is present and breaks down by. Therefore, too few ach-receptors and/or not enough ach is released: mepps- miniature end plate potentials, vm (2m) due to 1 vesicle binds to post synaptic cell. Normal people have twice the height of an area of vm: don drachman performed radioactive isotope of poison that can bind to/ label. Discovered a decrease # of ach-receptors in the muscle: torpedo ray- shock sting ray.
