-Dobutamine
-Methyldopa
What is the acronym for non-catecholamine direct acting agonists?
PCRAT is not a cat
What are the non-catecholamine direct acting agonists?
-Phenylephrine
-Clonidine
-Ritodrine
-Albuterol
-Terbutaline
What is the Indirect catecholamine agonist?
Tyramine
How do you remember the mixed adrenergic agonists?
APE is a mix between a human and a monkey
What are the mixed adrenergic agonists?
-Amphetamine
-Pseudoephedrine
-Ephedrine
What are the adrenergic neuron blocker antagonists?
-Guanethidine
-Reserpine
What are the 3 alpha blockers?
Phe Phe Praz
What is Phe Phe Praz?
-Phenoxyenzamine
-Phentolamine
-Prazosin
How do you remember the B-blockers?
Props to my boy tim who's a metrosexual eskimo
What are the B-blockers?
-Propanolol
-Timolol
-Metropolol
-Esmolol
What is the mixed alpha beta antagonist?
Carvedilol
What are the 4 sites of therapeutically relevant a1 adrenergic receptors? What is the response seen at each?
-Eye - radial m contracts - mydriasis
-Arterioles - contract/incr bp
-Veins - contract/incr bp
-Sex ejaculate (shoot)
What are the 2 sites of therapeutically relevant a2 adrenergic receptors? What is the response seen at each?
-Presynaptic; inhibits NT release
-Postsynaptic (CNS); inhibits sympathetic outflow
What are the 2 therapeutically relevant B1 receptor sites? What is the response to NE seen at each site?
-Heart - increased HR, conduction velocity, and contractility
-Kidney - increased renin release
What are the 5 therapeutically relevant B2 receptor sites? What is the response to NE seen at each site?
Sk. Muscle arterioles - dilation
Bronchi - dilation
Uterus - relaxation
Skeletal muscle - glycogenolysis
Liver - Glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis
What Gprotein subfamily is for
-A1
-A2
-B1
-B2
A1=Gq
A2=Gi
B1=Gs
B2=Gs
What does Gq do?
Stimulates PLC to convert PIP2 to IP3 + DAG resulting in increased Ca and PKC activity
What does Gi do?
Inhibits Adenylyl cyclase which decreases cAMP, decreases Ca influx, and decreases NE release
What does Gs do?
Activates Adenylyl cyclase which increases cAMP, increases Ca, stimulates glycogenolysis, and lipase.
What adrenergic receptors does NE act on?
A1, A2, and B1
What are the 3 major cardiovascular effects of NE?
-Increased diastolic BP
-Increased systolic BP
-Reflex bradycardia
How does NE increase diastolic bp?
By causing peripheral vasoconstriction of arterioles and veins which increases TPR
How does NE increase systolic bp?
By increasing cardiac contractility
How does NE stimulate reflex bradycardia?
When BP increases, the carotid bodies sense it, transmit the signal to CNS, which stimulates the vagus to slow HR back to normal.
What is the toxic effect of too much NE?
Neurogenic shock
