alpha 1 receptors
alpha 1 receptor activation
Effects of alpha 1 receptor
1. vascular smooth muscle: vasoconstriction, increase in PVR
2. Mydriasis: mediated by both alpha 1 and alpha 2
3. genitourinary tract smooth muscle: alpha 1A located at external sphincter of the bladder (improves urinary flow)
alpha 2 receptors
alpha 2 receptor location
drugs affecting alpha receptors
alpha 2 receptors work mainly as
autoreceptors to mediate feedback inhibition of sympathetic transmission
alpha 1 agonists
VASOCONSTRICTION
reduce edema and inflammation
alpha 1 agonist drugs
decongestant drugs: naphazoline, phenylephrine, propylhexedrine
alpha 1 antagonists
VASODILATION
decrease PVR
treatment of HTN
alpha 1 antagonist drugs
prazosin
alpha 1A antagonist for treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia
tamsulosin
tamsulosin has decreased incidence of
orthostatic hypotension
alpha 2 agonists
inhibit sympathetic outflow from CNS
treatment of HTN and symptoms associated with opiod withdrawal
clonidine
treatment of HTN during pregnancy
alpha-methyldopa
precursor to alpha-methylnorepinephrine
alpha 2 antagonists
yohimibine blocks alpha 2 leading to increased release of NE with subsequent stimulation of cardiac beta 1 receptors and peripheral vasculature alpha 1 receptors
used to be used to treat erectile dysfunction
structure of beta receptors
beta 1 receptors
rank order in terms of potency of response for beta receptors
isoproternol> epi> NE
division of beta receptors is made based on their
affinities to adrenergic agonists and antagonists
beta 1 receptors
increase chronotropy (HR) and inotropy (force of contraction)
(inotropy is increased phosphorylation of Ca2+ channels)
increase in AV node conduction velocity
kidney: yuxtaglomerular cells where receptor activation causes renin release
beta 2 receptors
beta 2 agonists
bronchodilation
treatment of asthma and COPD
salbutamol, albuterol, tertbutaline
tocolytic drug
ritodrine
beta 2 receptors
system that activates bladder constriction
parasympathetic
drugs that act on _ receptors used in treatment of urinary retention
muscarinic
bethanechol
beta 2 induce vasodilation in
liver and muscle
