PNS NEUROTRANSMITTER
|
pre and post acetylcholine
ratio 1 : 1 |
|
PNS RECEPTOR
NICOTINIC |
-all autonomic ganglion cells
-adrenal medulla -neurotransmitter junction |
|
PNS RECEPTOR
MUSCARINIC |
-all effector organs innervated by post ganglionic
|
|
SNS NEUROTRANSMITTER
|
-preganglionic - acetylcholine

|
SNS RECEPTOR
ALPHA |
-excitatory (except in GI tract where inhibitory)
|
|
SNS RECEPTOR
BETA |
-inhibitory (except in heart where excitatory)
|
|
SNS RECEPTOR
BETA 1 AND BETA 2 |
B1 - cardiac
B2 - bronchi and blood vessels |
|
EFFERENT SIGNALS
|
-signals travel through sympathetic and parasympathetic fibers
|
|
SYMPATHETIC FIBERS
|
central
|
|
PARASYMPATHETIC FIBERS
|
cervical and sacral (mostly cranial nerves)
|
|
PREGANGLIONIC FIBERS IN BOTH PNS AND SNS
|
-cholinergic
(acetylcholine) |
|
POSTGANGLIONIC FIBERS IN PNS
|
-cholinergic
|
|
MOST POSTGANGLIONIC FIBERS IN SNS
|
-adrenergic
(norepinephrine) some are cholinergic |
|
RECEPTORS FOR ACh
(MUSCARINIC) |
-effector cells stimulated by the post ganglionic neurons in BOTH the SNS and PNS
|
|
NICOTINIC RECEPTORS
|
-found in the synapses between the pre and post ganglionic neurons of both the SNS and PNS
|
|
NOREPINEPHRINE
|
mainly stimulates the alpha receptors and in a lesser way the beta receptors
|
|
EPINEPHRINE
|
stimulates both alpha and beta receptors equally
|
|
SNS AGONIST AND WHAT IT DOES
|
epinephrine, norepinephrine, and dobutamine
-raises blood pressure, increases HR, and contractility fight or flight response |
|
ALPHA 1 RECEPTOR
AGONIST (+), ANTAGONIST (-) AND ACTION |
+epinephrine and norepinephrine
(-) prazosin ACTION- vasoconstriction (raises BP), intestinal relaxation, pupillary dilation |
|
ALPHA 2 RECEPTOR (+), (-), AND ACTION
|
(+) clonidine
(-) Yohimbine ACTION - Blocks the presynaptic release of NE from adrenergic (SNS) nerves, has a sympathetic action on the brainstem |
|
BETA 1 RECEPTOR (+), (-), AND ACTION
|
(+) E and NE
(-) Metoprolol ACTION - cardiac stimulation (^ HR and contractility) lipolysis |
|
BETA 2 RECEPTOR (+), (-), AND ACTION
|
(+) E > NE
(-) non selective beta blockers ACTION - vasodilation and bronchodilation |
|
DOPAMINE 1 RECEPTOR (+), (-), AND ACTION
|
(+) Dopamine
(-) Phenothiazines, and thioxanthenes ACTION - vasodilation of renal coronary, and cerebral vasc beds |
|
DOPMINE 2 RECEPTOR (+), (-) ACTION
|
(+) Dopamine
(-) Haloperidol ACTION - Inhibits transmission in SNS ganglia and NE release from SNS nerve endings |
|
PARASYMPATHETIC NERVOUS SYSTEM (+), (-), ACTION
|
(+) ACh, bethanechol, cholinesterase inhibitors (physotigmine, edrophonium, neostigmine)
(-) atropine and scopolamine ACTION - Cardiac effects - through the vagus nerve ACh slows HR and conduction through the AV node (little direct reg of contractility and PVR) -Non cardiac effects - increase GI and GU motility and relaxation of sphincters - bronchoconstriction, and increase bronchial secretions |
