Hi all, as most of us are approaching to their dedicated study period for step 1, I thought I would start a thread to boost our memorization of First Aid. I am not one of those smart folks with good retention and I need some repetition and time to memorize. So if you guys happen to find some unfamiliar words/terms that strike you, just put those words in this thread and someone can add some explanation. How does this sound? So I will start. (Let's stick to First Aid .)

Cabergoline?

1.Overly inhibited? Are u sure? I thought it is due to overexpress bcl-2.

Apaf-1 is overly inhibited when bcl-2 is overexpressed such as in follicular lymphoma. So think opposite for Apaf-1, thus inhibition of Apaf-1 and overexpression of bcl-2 both lead to dec caspase activation and inc tumorigenesis

I thought it was easier than Uworld and the NBMEs I took but I had about 1/3 of my questions marked so maybe it was just false feeling

Also I highly recommend sketchypharm. I only had time to watch about half the videos and they were playing at 2x speed. I know I got at least 3 questions right only because I remembered pharm stuff from those videos

Could u explain clinical relevance about IL-2 R alpha?
Click to expand...
So the alpha chain of IL-2 receptor is CD25 which is expressed on the T reg. Sattar mentions that CD25 polymorphism leads to dysfunction in autoimmunity such as DM1 and MS
