acetylcholine
cholinoceptor agonist; acetic acid ester of choline
muscarinic and nicotinic action
organ system effects: muscarinic - eye - miosis, accommodation, aqueous humor outflow; CV - reduce periph vasc R, slow HR - direct!, vasodilation via NO (vasodilation masks constriction - direct effect on vasc SM), low dose causes an SNS reflex and incr in HR, larger ACh doses mask this and --> bradycardia; respiratory - contracts SM of bronchial tree, stimulates glands, exacerbates asthma; GI - secretions, peristalsis; GU - detrusor contraction, relaxes trigone and sphincter; glands - stims thermoreg sweat glands; nicotinic - autonomic ganglia - site of action, simulataneous SNS and PNS discharge, predominant tone predicts effects, SNS - vasculature, PNS - most other tissues, NMJ - muscle fasciculations, depolarization blockade --> flaccid paralysis
poorly absorbed, poorly distributed to CNS; rapidly hydrolyzed
methacholine
cholinoceptor agonist; acetic acid ester of methylcholine
methyl group - lower potency at nicotinic receptor, only muscarinic action
see acetylcholine but ONLY muscarinic
more resistant to hydrolysis
carbachol
cholinoceptor agonist; carbamic acid ester of alcohol
muscarinic and nicotinic action
very resistant to hydrolysis, longer duration of action
bethanechol
cholinoceptor agonist; carbamic acid ester of alcohol
methyl group - lower potency at nicotinic receptor; only muscarinic action
very resistant to hydrolysis, longer duration of action
pilocarpine
cholinoceptor agonist; alkaloid
tertiary alkaloids - penetrate CNS
nicotine
cholinoceptor agonist; alkaloid
tertiary alkaloids - penetrate CNS
fatal at 40 mg, CNS stimulation - convulsions, coma, respiratory arrest, skeletal muscel end plate depolarization - respiratory paralysis, HTN and cardiac arrhythmias, tx is symptom directed - muscarinic and adrenergic antagonists and mech respiration; most sign toxicity - due to chronic use
lobeline
cholinoceptor agonist; alkaloid
plant derivative similar to nicotine
tertiary alkaloids - penetrate CNS
edrophonium
cholinesterase inhibitor
simple alcohol w/ quaternary ammonium group, reversibly binds to active site
CIs in general: CV GI/GU - tx clinical disorders related to inactivity of SM (postop ileus, congenital megacolon, urinary retention, etc.), eye - tx closed angle glaucome (outflow of aqueous humor), and skeletal muscle effects, amplify the actions of endogenous ACh, little effect on vasc smooth muscle and blood pressure, modify tone of PNS (does NOT innervate periph vasculature), at NMJ - low concentrations increase force of contraction, higher doses produce depolarizing neuromuscular blockade, tx myasthenia gravis (dx test), tx atropine and other pure anticholinergic intoxication, tx Alzheimers - CNS
very short duration of action (2-10 min)
SLUDGE: salivation, lacrimation, urinary incontinence, diarrhea, GI cramps, emesis; can be reversed by atrophine; poisoning also tx by: maintenance of vitals (respiration), decontamination to prevent further absorption, atropine parenterally in large doses; therapy may also include tx w/ pralidoxime to rescue un-aged inhibited enzyme
neostigmine
cholinesterase inhibitor - carbamate
2-step hydrolysis, covalent bond of carbamoylated enzyme - resistant to hydration
quaternary ammonium, stays in periphery!
physostigmine
cholinesterase inhibitor - carbamate
2-step hydrolysis, covalent bond of carbamoylated enzyme - resistant to hydration
tertiary ammonium - penetrates CNS, duration of effect depends on stability of inhibitor-enzyme complex
carbaryl
cholinesterase inhibitor - carbamate
2-step hydrolysis, covalent bond of carbamoylated enzyme - resistant to hydration
high lipid solubility, rapid CNS effects
pyridostigmine
cholinesterase inhibitor - carbamate
echothiophate
cholinesterase inhibitor - organophosphate
high affinity for cholinesterase, long lasting inhibition, covalent P-enzyme bone is stable, lasts hundreds of hours (lifetime of enzyme), "aging" strengthens bond, but b4 aging, pralidoxime can restore enzyme fxn
well absorbed topically, distributed to all parts of body, including CNS
soman
cholinesterase inhibitor - organophosphate
high affinity for cholinesterase, long lasting inhiibtion; covalent P-enzyme bone is stable, lasts hundreds of hours (lifetime of enzyme), "aging" strengthens bond, but b4 aging, pralidoxime can restore enzyme fxn
well absorbed topically, distributed to all parts of body, including CNS
sarin
cholinesterase inhibitor - organophosphate
high affinity for cholinesterase, long lasting inhiibtion; covalent P-enzyme bone is stable, lasts hundreds of hours (lifetime of enzyme), "aging" strengthens bond, but b4 aging, pralidoxime can restore enzyme fxn
well absorbed topically, distributed to all parts of body, including CNS
malathion, parathion
cholinesterase inhibitor - organophosphate
high affinity for cholinesterase, long lasting inhibtion; covalent P-enzyme bone is stable, lasts hundreds of hours (lifetime of enzyme), "aging" strengthens bond, but b4 aging, pralidoxime can restore enzyme fxn
well absorbed topically, distributed to all parts of body, including CNS
isoflurophate
cholinesterase inhibitor - organophosphate
