Street and Designer Drugs

There are basically two types of drugs. One is called the "Street Drugs" and the other is called "Designer Drugs". Street Drugs are those that, pharmacologically speaking, do not attack a particular site, but bring about a macro action. Such kind of drugs have a bundle of side effects linked to them. On the other hand, the Designer Drugs are devoid of this discrepancy. Such drugs hit only the desired target, causing minimum side effects. The reason behind their specificity is their making. Because, they are designed in a way that stereochemically binds to their target--consequently called the Designer Drugs.

Death- By Neglect or by Design

There are basically two types of cell death. One is called as the death by neglect, while the other is called as the death by design. The former one is the death that happens less often. The underlying mechanism here is that the cell, if mistakenly, is dislodged from a particular location where its survival signals lie in its paracrine. As soon as it will not be receiving its survival signals, it will be impossible for the cell to maintain its integrity, and hence the result will be obvious, death by neglect. The other phenomenon, death by design, happens very commonly in the cell. It leads towards the programmed cell death, more technically called as the apoptosis. It can be commonly seen, during the embryological development, specifically when the finishing of the organs takes place.
