TCA overdose may occur by accident or purposefully in an attempt to cause death. [2] The toxic dose depends on the specific TCA. [2] Most are non-toxic at less than 5 mg/kg except for desipramine, nortriptyline, and trimipramine, which are generally non-toxic at less than 2.5 mg/kg. [5] [2] In small children one or two pills can be fatal. [6]
In animal tissue, BCKDC catalyzes an irreversible step [2] in the catabolism of the branched-chain amino acids L-isoleucine, L-valine, and L-leucine, acting on their deaminated derivatives (L-alpha-keto-beta-methylvalerate, alpha-ketoisovalerate, and alpha-ketoisocaproate, respectively) and converting them [3] to α-Methylbutyryl-CoA, Isobutyryl-CoA and Isovaleryl-CoA respectively.
Per the United Kingdom Medical Royal Colleges, a diagnosis of brain death is a two-fold process including 1) identifying the cause of irreversible brain damage and excluding reversible causes of brain damage and 2) conducting a series of clinical and laboratory tests to assess brain stem function.

Traumatic cardiac arrest (TCA) is a condition in which the heart has ceased to beat due to blunt or penetrating trauma, such as a stab wound to the thoracic area. [1] It is a medical emergency which will always result in death without prompt advanced medical care.
In this scheme, enzyme c catalyzes the committed step in the biosynthesis of compound 6. In biochemistry , the committed step (also known as the first committed step ) is an effectively irreversible , enzyme - catalyzed reaction that occurs at a branch point during the biosynthesis of some molecules .
“The event or death may have been related to the underlying disease being treated, may have been caused by some other product being used at the same time, or may have occurred for other reasons.” The Times story also cited a buprenorphine study by researchers in Sweden that looked at “100 autopsies where buprenorphine had been detected.”
Maprotiline (Ludiomil) – can also be classified as a TCA and grouped with the secondary amines; Mianserin (Tolvon) Mirtazapine (Remeron) Setiptiline (Tecipul) Drugs that contain four rings not all fused together but are sometimes still classified as TeCAs include: Amoxapine (Asendin) – often classified as a TCA and grouped with the ...
In 2012, investigators seemingly brought long-awaited closure to one of the nation's oldest and most high-profile kidnapping cases, solving it after more than 50 years.
