Mechanism of Adrengergic Receptor Activation which is the most common by which drugs activate peripheral adrenergic receptors. The direct-acting receptor stimulants produce their effects by binding to adrenergic receptors & mimicking the actions of natural transmitters (NE,epi & dopamine)
|
Direct Receptor Binding
|
|
|
Mechanism of Adrengergic Receptor Activation, where by acting on terminals of sympathetic nerves to cause NE release, drugs can bring aobut activation by this indirect mechanism which includes amphetmines & epi
((i.e Promotion of What?) |
Promotion of NE Release
|
|
|
Mechanism of Adrengergic Receptor Activationwhereby blocking NE reuptake, drugs can cause NE to accumulated w/in the synaptic gap. & can thereby increase cocain & their tricyclic antidepressants.
(i.e. Inhibition of What?) |
Inhibition of NE Reuptake
|
|
|
Mechanism of Adrengergic Receptor Activation where some of the NE in terminals of adrenergic neurons are subject to inactivation of MAO.
(i.e. Inhibition of what?) |
Inhibition of NE Inactivation
|
|
|
Adrenergic agonists that contain a catechol group & an amine group, which are very polar & can't be taken orally. They have a brief duration of action and can't pass through blood brain barrier.
|
Catacholamines
