NE
|
|
what SNS NT does adrenal medulla release via blood?
|
Epinephrine
|
|
are NE and E considered excitatory or inhibitory?
|
both (Ex: contracts heart, relaxes bronchioles) due to differing receptor types
|
|
what are the 2 main classes of adrenergic receptors?
|
alpha & beta
|
|
all ______ receptors act via G protein signaling
|
adrenergic receptors (alpha & beta)
|
|
which receptor constricts vessels & sphincters?
|
Alpha 1
|
|
these Rs found on presynaptic: decrease NE release,
on postsynaptic: contract smooth m., & central: decrease SNS outflow |
Alpha 2
|
|
administration of A2 agonist would be useful for:
|
hypertension (central mos predominant: decreases sympathetic outflow)
|
|

Beta 2 blocker
|
|
propranol is an antihypertensive agent that blocks B1 & B2. however it cannot be given to asthma patients. why?
|
because blocking beta 2 prevents bronchiole dilation
