Ach muscarinic receptors that interact with Gi and stimulate K channels and inhibit adenylyl cyclase
M2, M4
cardiac selective muscarinic Ach receptor
M2
Bethanecol (urecholine)
-choline carbamate that is resistant to cholinesterases
-increased GI and ureteral peristalsis, increased GI secretion, decrease bladder capacity, relaxes external sphincter
-used in post-op gastroparesis orally or subcutaneously
pilocarpine
-generalized muscarinic activation: ocular-pupillary contriction, spasm of accommodation, fall in intraocular pressure, miosis lasting several hours
-used as aqueous ophthalmic solution for glaucoma
metoclopramide (reglan)
-increases gastric emptying and anti-emetic (via dopamine receptor antagonism)
-firstline gastroparesis, anti-emetic, given orally
atropine
-competitive antagonist at Ach muscarinic receptors
-effects: dry mouth, constipation, urinary retention, dry skin, flush, bronchodilation, mydriasis (pupil dilation), tachycardia, delirum -- mad as a hatter, red as a beat, dry as a bone
scopolamine (l-hyoscine)
oral or transdermal admin for motion sickness
ipratropium bromide (atrovent)
bronchodilator for asthma and COPD, use inhaler
benztropine (cogentin)
oral treatment for parkinson-like side effects of anti-psychotics
oxybutynin (ditropan)
increases bladder capacity and anti-spasmodic used for incontinence, oral admin
dephenhydramine (benedryl)
antihistamine with anticholinergic properties, used as sedative
tricyclic antidepressants
blocks norepinephrine and serotonin reuptake but also has anticholinergic side effects
huperzine A
reversible competitive Ach-esterase inhibitor used in treatment of Alzheimer's
reversible covalent modifiers of Ach-esterase
neostigmine, pyridiostigmine, physostygmine
irreversible inhibitor of Ach-esterase
sarin nerve gas
signs of Ach-esterase poisoning
bronchial spasm, salivation, lacrimation, defecation, urination, bradycardia, hypotension, muscle weakness, death in minutes-hours
pralidoxime
drug that reactivates irreversibly blocked Ach-esterase (must occur before enzyme "aging")
sympathetic ganglion receptor type
nicotinic Ach receptor
sympathetic target receptor type
adrenergic (sweat glands are cholinergic)
classical sympathetic actions
lungs: dilation of bronchi
liver: increase in glucose
heart: increase in rate and stroke volume
skeletal muscle: increase in blood flow
GI: decreased motility, increased sphincter tone
synthesis pathway of norepinephrine from dopamine
tyrosine -[tyrosine hydroxylase]-> DOPA -[aromatic amino acid decarboxylase]-> dopamine -[dopamine hydroxylase]-> norepinephrine
pargyline
blocks monoamine oxidase
rate-limiting enzyme of norepinephrine synthesis
tyrosine hydroxylase
alpha-methyltyrosine
blocks tyrosine hydroxylase
treatment for pheochromacytoma
alpha-methyldopa
blocks aromatic amino acid decarboxylase
act as false neurotransmitters and replace NE in vesicles
alpha-methylnorepinephrine, bretylium, guanethidine
enzyme in adrenal glands that converts norepinephrine to epineprhine
phenylethanolamine N-methyltransferase
sympathomimetics that increase secretion of NE
tyramine, amphetamine, ephedrine
turnoff mechanism of muscarinic Ach receptor
Ach-esterase activity
turnoff mechanism of adrenergic receptor
NE reuptake
adrenergic receptor coupled to adenylate cyclase activity
