alpha 1 receptors:
-location -response -exception to normal response |
-smooth muscle
-generally elicit contraction -relax smooth muscles of GI tract (inhibits) and erectile tissues (vascular engorgement) |
|
beta 1 receptors:
-location -reponse |
-heart and adipose tissue
-stimulate excitatory activity -increase cardiac rate and contractility, lipolysis |
|
beta 2 receptors
-location -function |
-bronchioles, intestines, euterus, arterioles of muscles
-stimulates smooth muscle to relax, vasodilation |
|
DA1 receptors:
-function |
-stimulate vasodilation of renal and mesenteric arteries (increase blood flow)
|
|
which receptors are more sensitive to epi - alpha or beta
|
-beta 1 and 2 are 10x more sensitive to epi
|
|
What is the major NT of the sympathetic nervous system
|
-norepinephrine (levarterenol, levophed)
|
|
In what two ways in NE released
|
-released into synapse following activaiton
-released as circulating hormone by adrenal gland |
|
What triggers release of epi from adrenal medulla
|
-impulses from greater splanchnic nerves (nicotinic agonist)
|
|
What is the major NT of the CNS
|
-dopamine
|
|
What two things does dopamine do that helps when used to treat shock
|
-promotes myocardial contractility and kidney function
-decreases metabolite build up |
|
Isoproterenol
-what is it -what it does -uses |
-synthetic catecholamine
-stimulates B1 and B2 receptors equally -bradycardia, control of airway in inhaler form (asthma, COPD) |
|
How does epi affect blood pressure
|
-systolic increases due to B1 effects on heart
-diastolic decreases due to vasodilation of skeletal muscle (b2) |
|
How does norepi affect blood pressure
|
-diastolic and systolic increased
|
|
What is the effect of the vagal reflex
|
-to slow the heart
|
|
How can epi decrease MAP
-how can it increase MAP |
-by B2 --> skeletal muscle vasodilation
-by B1 -- > myocardial stimulation a1 --> vasoconstriction of many vascular beds |
|
T/F - NE has no vasodilator (B2) activity
|
-true, only epi does
-decreased heart rate, increased MAP |
|
Which catecholamine causes an increase in MAP
|
-NE
|
|
Adrenoceptor agonists:
substitute amino group substitute benzene ring substitute alpha carbon |
-increase potency, isoproterenol, dobutamine, terbutaline
-decreased potency, increased duration; metaraminol, phenylephrine, ephedrine -block MAO activity, prolonged activity; metaraminol, ephedrine |
|
What adrenergic agonist is useful to treat CHF
|
-dobutamine
|
|
Metaproterenol, terbutaline, albuterol
-what -uses |
-B2 selective adrenergic agonist
-bronchial asthma |
|
What adrenergic agonist is sued to elicit mydriasis for an eye exam
|
-phenylephrine
|
|
Which drug for:
anaphylactic shock hypovolemic shock cardiogenic shock |
-epi
-dopamine -dobutamine (B1 preference) |
