prototype mixed action adrenergic agonist? its structure?
ephedrine
no subs on phenyl. N-methyl alpha-methyl beta-hydroxyl
in general, -OH groups on the phenyl ring of agonists have what effect?
reduced CNS activity & reduce oral bioavailability
what drug has a direct effect at only alpha1 adrenergic receptors? its structure?
phenylephrine
one phenyl-OH. N-methyl, beta-OH
another drug is methoxamine
what drug has a direct effect at only alpha2?
clonidine
what drug has a direct effect at only beta1? its structure?
dobutamine
dopamine with another phenol-butyl type group on dopamine's N. ie huge substituent on the amine
what drug has a direct effect at only beta2? its structure?
terbutaline (also albuterol)
3,5 phenyl-OH, N-tertbutyl, beta-OH
amphetamine has no -OH groups on the phenyl, and has an alpha-methyl group. what are the effects of this?
no OH - orally available, access to CNS
alpha-methyl: resistant to MAO
adrenergic receptor locations: alpha1
Vascular Smooth Muscle, pupillary dilator, pilomotor, prostate, heart (small role)
adrenergic receptor locations: alpha2
nerve terminals (inhibitory), fat cells to inhibit lipolysis platelets for aggregation, some VSM for contraction
adrenergic receptor locations: beta1
heart
adrenergic receptor locations: beta2
brochial SMC, uterus, VSM, liver (glycogenolysis)
adrenergic receptor locations: beta3
fat cells for lipolysis
adrenergic receptor locations: D1
dilates renal VSM
adrenergic receptor locations: D2
nerve terminals - modulates NT release (inhibitory, reduce cAMP levels)
describe the differences of low [Epi] vs high [Epi] acting on VSM
Epi binds Beta2 > Alpha1. Both exist on VSM, however, # of alpha1 > # beta2. thus, low [Epi] will vasodilate via beta2, but high [Epi] will reverse effect and vasoconstrict due to alpha1, leading to baroreflex activity and REDUCED heart rate.
an alpha1 agonist will have what effect on BP and HR? what is the prototypical alpha1 agonist?
phenylephrine will mostly affect VSM, where alpha1 predominates. this will increase MAP, and HR will drop from baroreflexes
what Rx would you use to reduce TPR with no immediate change in HR or CO?
terbutaline/albuterol, beta2agonist
(alpha 1 antagonist? prozasin?)
what Rx to increase CO and contractility and VO2 with no change in TPR?
dobutamine, Beta1 agonist
dopamine is weird. describe its effects at low doses, then at high doses
low doses - mainly increases flow to kidney (via D1) and acts on heart Beta1.
high doses - activates alpha1 and increases TPR
NE acts on Beta1 and alpha1, leading to increased TPR and BP. what happens to the heart rate and contractility?
heart rate wants to rise due to NE on Beta1, but baroreflex, via vagal nerves, slow down heart. however, the inotropic effect of NE remains
regarding NE and Epi, baroreflexes can reverse the Beta1 effects on heart. what beta1 effects are never reversed?
contractility (inotropic effect) and VO2 are not reversed
-thus baroreflexes-vagus n. can reverse chronotropic effect, but not inotropic effect
