if MG, will improve symptoms
if Choline Crisis, will make worse
Muscarinic activation of DAG pathway results in
Secretion
Muscarinic activation of the IP3 pathway results in
Smooth muscle activation

M3 most responsible
What is the mechanism of Nicotinic stimulation
Acts @ Na/K channel causing depolarization and AP
Parasympathetic effect on blood vessels?

Cholinomimetic effect on blood vessels?
PS does not effect the uninnervated muscarinic receptors, therefore causes bradycardia

Cholinomimetics cause vasodilation and reflex tacchycardia
Sweating is a _____ response, therefore caused by cholinomimetics and not their PS stimulation
sympathetic
Nicotinic (varencycline) response in:
1 BV
2 Gut
3 SkM
1 vasodilation
2 motility and secretion
3 fasiculations and spasm --> paralysis
Successful at producing paralysis
Succinylcholine
Used to reduce nicotine cravings
Varencycline
responsible for mushroom poisoning symtoms of NVD
Muscarine
Serious effects of Amanita Phalloides mushroom
Hepatic and renal necrosis

caused by Amanitin/Phalloidin, RNA polymerase inhibitors
Nicotinic Toxicity effects
Fasculations and paralysis
Convulsions and depression
Prototype carbamic acid ester (ChEi)

duration?
Neostigmine

2-8 hours
Prototypic Organophosphate (ChEi)

duration?
Parathion, insecticide

irreversible, days to weeks
Mechanism of ChEis
binding to ChEi acidic portion prevents hydrolysis of endogenous ACh
Difference in site of action between direct and indirect Cholinomimetics?
Indirects (ChEis) do not act at uninnervated sites, therefore do not cause vasodilation and reflex tachycardia
Treatment for Myasthenia Gravis
Neostigmine
ChEi used in Alzheimers
Rivastigmine
Organophosphate used as a scabicide
Malathion
Organophosphate used as anti-helminthic

Antidote for organophosphate toxicity?

no effect on?
