What is the site/response from the Alpha 1 Receptor
activation of the receptors in arterioles of skin, viscera and mucous membranes and veins leading to vasoconstriction. "Think blood vessels"
What is the site / repsonse for Beta 1
heart stimulation leads to increased: heart rate, contractility, rate of conduction. Activation of receptors in kidney lead to release of renin. "Think we only have 1 heart"
What is the site / response for Beta 2
activation of aerterioles of heart, lungs and skeletal muscles leads to vasodilation. Bronchial stimulation leads to bronchodilation "think we have 2 lungs"
What is the site/response from Dopamine
activation of receptors in kidney cause renal blood vessels to dilate
what are the 3 main neurotransmitters in ANS
Acetylcholine is the main one for the parasympathetic nervous system
norepinephrine
epinephrine main one for the sympathetic nervous system
what are the two types of receptors
cholinergic / Adrenergic
Cholinergic has 3 types
1. Nicotinic N
2. Nictotinic M = muscles
3. Miscarinic = glands/mucous
Adrenergic are the catcholamines 3 types
1. epinephrine
2. norepinephrine
3. dopamine
Two subdivisions of the ANS
1. Parasympathetic Nervous system = rest and digest
2. Sympathetic Nervous system = fight or flight
Cholinergic Agonits Stimulate other names are
cholinergic, cholinomimetic, cholinergic stimulant, parasympathetic agonist and parasympathomimetic copies
Cholinergic Antagonits are drugs that block parasympathetic repectors other names are
cholinergic blocker, anticholinergic, parasympathetic antagonist, parasympatholytic
2 Mechanisms of actions of Chlinergic Agonist Agents
1. Direct acting = acts direrctly at the chlinergic receptor site
2. indirect acting = acts by making more of the neruotransmitter "acetylcholine" by inhibiting the enzymes - cholinersterase / acetylcholinesterase
Direct acting cholinergic Agonist agents
3 examples
1. Urecholine a muscarnic agonist works on muscle of bladeder contracts detrusor muscle relaxes sphincter = voiding
2. Akarpine = muscarinic agonist
3. nicotrol = nicontinic N & M agonist
indirect acting cholinergic agonist agents they bind to acetylcholinesterase either reversible bond or irreversible bond 2 examples
!. neostigmine - reversible binding for a period of mintues to hours
2. phospholine iodine = irreversible = forms a permanent bond
what is the difference between acetycholinesterase and cholinesterase
Acetycholinesterase is an enzyme that stops the action of acetylcholine
cholinesterase in an enzyme that catalyzes (speeds up the rate) they dydrolysis (split into similar compounds) of acetylcholinesterase
Urecholine is not used if there is any obstruction in bladder, GI ulcers/obstructions it is used for?
Neurogenic atony and with retention
it increases esphagel motility pressure in the LES and tone and motility of GI tract
URECHOLINE adverse side effects
CV: bradycardia/hypotention
GI: ab crampls, diarrhea
Resp: increased bronchial secrestions, bronco and or larngospasms,
Endo: excessive salivation, excessive sweating
eye: miosis
what is the complication with Erecholine
Cholinergic crisis, respiratory failure, antidote is Atropine
Akarpine what does it do?
contracts cilary muscles which ups the outflow of agueous humor lowering IOP, effect of miosis, ups secreation of salivary glands. used for open & closed angle glaucoma and xerostomia
What is Akapine contraindicated for
retinal detachment
antidote is Atropine
Nicotrol what does it do what is it for
pleasureable stimulating effect in brain / CNS
activates vasopressin
used to stop smoking
Side effects and contraindications for the use of nicotrol
can case angina pectoris, tachycardia, HA, insomnia and nervousness. Do not usse with Post-MI, life threatening arrhythmias or severe or worsening angina
Antidotes Atropine
Direct acting cholinergic Agonist agents
3 examples
1. Urecholine a muscarnic agonist works on muscle of bladeder contracts detrusor muscle relaxes sphincter = voiding
2. Akarpine = muscarinic agonist
3. nicotrol = nicontinic N & M agonist
indirect acting cholinergic agonist agents they bind to acetylcholinesterase either reversible bond or irreversible bond 2 examples
!. neostigmine - reversible binding for a period of mintues to hours
2. phospholine iodine = irreversible = forms a permanent bond
Neostigmine reversible indirect acting cholnergic agonsit what is it for
myasthenia gravis, reverse neuromuscular blocking agents, treat anticholinergic poisoning can cause a cholergic crisis
Phospholine iodine irreversible indrect acting cholinergic what is it used for
open and closed angle glaucoma and insecticides and chemical warfare agents, complication = DEATH
Antidotes = atropine, protopam and diazepam
what is a cholinergic crisis
overstimulation at neruo musclar junctions d/t excess of acetylcholine = results from inactivity of acetlycholinesterase = respiratory failure
antidote is atropine and mechanical ventilation w/oxgen
Cholinergic Antagonists
think car bad as
they act by competing w/acetylcholine for binding at the receptors once they bind they inhibit nerve transmission at the receptor site thus having an OPPOSITE effect on body
C = Cogentin = parkinsons
A = Artane = parkinsons
R = Robinul = PUD

B = Bentyl = IBS
A = Atropine
D = Detrol = overactive bladder

A = atrovent = bronchodialation
S = Scopolamine = motion sickness
What are the actions of cholinergic antagonists or anticholinergic agents on the body
CV: increases heart rate
GI: decreases secretions/ motility
GU decreases bladder contractions and increases constriction of sphincter
Resp: relaxes smooth muscles = decrease airway resistance and causes bronchial dilation / lowers bronchial secretions
Eye = dilates pupils
exocrine: lowers secretions saliva & resp
CNS: lowers muscle ridigity and decreases tremors
What are the therapuetic uses of cholinergic antagonists / anticholinergic agent
treat life threatening bradycardia, preanesthetic to prevent dangerous reduction of HR from general anesthesia, N&V, peptic ulcers, IBS, Chronic bronchitis, ashtma and COPD
Two neuromuscular blocking agents that are used to prevent muscle fibers from being stimulated and does not allow for skeletal muscle conctractions
1. Tubocurarine which is long acting
2. anectine which is ultra-short used for short procedures
Tubocurarine is contraindicated or used cautiously in
