Avolition
• Schizophrenia is characterized by "positive symptoms during an
acute episode and ongoing negative symptoms throughout the life
of the individual. "First Rank" positive symptoms include audible
thoughts, running commentary, voices heard arguing, and passivity
phenomena. Negative symptoms describe the gradual longitudinal
deterioration of the personality and development of cognitive
deficits. These include avolition (lack of motivation), alogia
(reduction in spontaneous speech), affect blunting (reduction in
experience of mood), and asociability (lack of interest in
relationships). Negative symptoms are less responsive to
pharmacological treatment.

A. Endoplasmic reticulum
B. Lysosomes
C. Golgi apparatus
D. Endosomes
E. Proteasomes
Proteasomes
• proteosomes are organelles that degrade proteins targeted by
ubiquitylation. Endosomes are vacuoles containing proteins that have been
internalized by endocytosis to be translocated between the plasma
membrane, Golgi apparatus and lysosomes. Lysosomes are acidic vesicles
containing hydrolase enzymes. The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) can be
rough or smooth depending on the pręsence of ribosomes. Rough ER is
found adjacent to the nucleus and is where translation of protein destined
for secretion or insertion in the plasma membrane occurs. Smooth ER is
less abundant and is where the synthesis of lipids and the metabolism of
steroids, carbohydrates and drugs occurs. In muscle cells, it acts as a store
of calcium ions (sarcoplasmic reticulum). Proteins synthesised in the rough
ER are transferred to the Golgi apparatus in vesicles. After modification (for
example, glycosylation), they exit and fuse with the trans-Golgi network
where they are sorted for delivery to the plasma membrane.

A. Histamine
B. Gastrin
C. Somatastatin
D. Acetylcholine
E. NSAIDS
Somatastatin
• H+ secretion is mediated by H+/K+ ATPase proteins (inhibited by proton
pump inhibitors such as omeprazole), of parietal cells which are activated
when tubulovesicles possessing therm are united with the luminal
membrane. Fusion of tubulovesicles with the luminal membrane is
induced by acetylcholine (M, receptors) from the vagus nerve, gastrin
(CCK, receptors) from G cells and histamine (H, receptors) from
enterochromaffin-like (ECL) cells. Histamine release is also promoted by
ACh and gastrin and therefore acts a final 'common mediator on the
parietal cell. Conversely, somatostatin (via ST, receptors) reduces HCI
secretion: release of somatostatin from D cells is inhibited by Helicobacter
pylori, which predisposes to gastric and duodenal ulceration. NSAIDS
inhibit cyclo-oxygenase reducing levels of PGE, which would usually inhibit
parietal cell secretion of acid. PGE1 also usually increases mucus and
bicarbonate secretion. NSAID use can therefore predispose to gastric and
duodenal ulceration
