Ach, muscarinic.
Sympathetic preganglionic neurons to sweat glands release the neurotransmitter ------- which act on ------- receptors.
Ach, muscarinic.
Sympathetic postganglionic neurons to sweat glands release the neurotransmitter ------- which act on ------- receptors.
Ach, muscarinic.
Sympathetic preganglionic neurons to glands, cardiac and smooth muscles release the neurotransmitter ------- which act on ------- receptors.
Ach, nicotinic.

Sympathetic preganglionic neurons to renal vascular smooth muscle release the neurotransmitter ------- which act on ------- receptors.
dopamine, D1
Sympathetic postganglionic neurons to renal vascular smooth muscle release the neurotransmitter ------- which act on ------- receptors.
Dopamine, D1
Sympathetic preganglionic neurons to the adrenal medulla release the neurotransmitter ------- which act on ------- receptors.
Ach, nicotinic.
Sympathetic preganglionic neurons to the adrenal medulla synapse directly on ------- cells of the adrenal medulla.
Chromaffin.
Somatic neurons synapse directly on -------- muscle and release the neurotransmitter ------- which act on ------- receptors.
skeletal muscle, Ach, nicotinic.
Ach is synthesized from acetyl-CoA and choline by the enzyme ---------.
Choline acetyltransferase.
The transport of choline into the nerve terminal can be inhibited by --------.
Hemicholinium.
The release of transmitter from vesicles in the nerve ending require the entry of ------ into the neuron.
Calcium.
The action of Ach in the synapse is terminated by its metabolism to acetate and choline by the enzyme ---------.
Acetylcholinesterase.
In the noradrenergic nerve terminal, tyrosine is hydroxylated to -------, which is decarboxylated to --------, which is finally hydroxylated to NE.
DOPA, dopamine.
Dopamine is transported into vesicles for hydroxylation to NE. This transport can be blocked by the drug --------.
Reserpine.
The action of NE and DA is terminated by --------- and ----------.
Reuptake, diffusion (different than for Ach).
The --------- drugs promote catecholamine release.
Amphetamine.
The drugs --------- and ---------- inhibit the reuptake of NE.
Cocaine, TCA.
The release of NE from a sympathetic nerve ending is modulated by ---------, --------- and ---------.
NE, Ach, angiotensin II.
NE inhibits its own release at the noradrenergic nerve terminal through --------- receptors.
Alpha 2.
Angiotensin II --------- (inhibits / stimulates) the release of NE from the noradrenergic nerve terminal.
Stimulates.
Ach inhibits the release of NE from the noradrenergic nerve terminal by binding to --------- receptors.
M1.
Clinical application and action of Bethanechol.
Postoperative and neurogenic ileus and urinary retention. / Activates bowel and bladder smooth muscle.
Clinical application and action of Carbachol and Pilocarpine.
Glaucoma. / Activates ciliary muscle of eye (open angle), pupillary sphincter (narrow angle).

Mechanism of action of Pralidoxime.
Regenerates active cholinesterase, chemical antagonist, used to treat organophosphate exposure.
Clinical uses of the muscarinic antagonist Atropine.
Dilate pupils, decrease acid secretion in peptic ulcer disease, decrease urgency in mild cystitis, decrease GI motility, reduce airway secretions, and treat organophosphate poisoning. "Blocks SLUD: Salivation, Lacrimation, Urination, Defecation."
