α2-receptors are located where?

action?
* pre-synaptic nerve endings

* post-synaptically on beta cells of pancreas

* inhibitory
on post-synaptic membrane of the effector organ
α1-receptors
Equal affinity for epinephrine and nor-epinephrine
β1-receptors
Where are β1-receptors located?
Heart, juxta glomerular apparatus of kidney, fat cells
When epinephrine binds β1-receptors, what effect does it have on heart rate?

On contractability?

On cardiac output?
* Increased
* Increased
* Increased
When NORepinephrine binds β1-receptors, what effect does it have on (1) heart rate?
(2) On contractability?
(3) On cardiac output?
(1) decreased HR
(2) increased contractability (+ ionotrophic)
(3) incr. cardiac output
Where are β2-receptors located?
β2-receptors locations:
Blood vessels of SK. muscle, liver for glycogenesis*, smooth muscles of <<bronchus>>, urogenital tract system and uterus* and CORONARY ARTERY

* only places stimulation happen (not relax/inhibition) w/β2
Which receptor is activated through G-protein activation of phopholipase C?
α1-receptors
When α2 receptors are stimulated what happens?

Exceptions?
Where? (4)
Causes feedback INHIBITION of release of norepinephrine

Generally promotes SEDATION, but in uterus (when bound by NE) and in blood vessels of skin, mucosa, splanchnic, renal - it promotes constriction.
Receptors on blood vessels of skin and kidney and splanchnic area?

Epinephrine causes ?
NE causes?
α1, α2

Constriction
Constriction
Receptors on blood vessels of skeletal muscle and coronary artery?

Binding of epinephrine causes ?
NE?
β2

dilatation
Dilatation
Epinephrine affect on:
Systsolic pressure?
Diastolic pressure?
++
-
Nor-epinephrine
Systsolic pressure?
Diastolic pressure?
+++
++
receptors for
GIT
Motility and tone
sphincter
α1α1, α2, β2
E: relaxation of smooth muscle and contraction of sph.
NE: relaxation of smooth muscle and contraction of sph.
Receptors in Smooth muscle of
BRONCHIAL muscle?
E:
NE:
β2
Relaxation
Relaxation
Receptors in Smooth muscle of
Uterus?
E:
NE:
α1, α2, β2

E: Relaxation
NE: Contraction
What is the rank order of potency for alpha receptors?
Epinephrine
Norepinephrine
Isoproterenol
What type of receptors are present in the blood vessels of skeletal muscles, liver, and smooth muscles of bronchus, urogenital system (bladder) and uterus and have a higher affinity for epinephrine over norepinephrine?
β2 {EPI>NE}
Dextrusor muscle
SMOOTH OF BLADDER

contracts when urinating to squeeze out urine. Otherwise, it remains relaxed to allow the bladder to fill.

Related are the urethral sphincter muscles
receptors for Dextrusor muscle
E:
NE:
β2
E: Relaxation (so holding onto urine)
NE: none
receptors for urethral sphincter muscles
E:
NE:
α1:

E: Contraction?? check this
NE: Contraction
At medium-high doses what receptor does dopamine interact with?
To what end? What is effector organ?
B1 receptors, exerts positive inotropic effect on myocardium
At very high concentrations what receptor does dopamine interact with?
Alpha1 adrenergic receptors, vasoconstriction
What effect does dopamine have on the body at low concentrations?
Increases GFR
Increases renal blood flow
Increases Na excretion
At low concentrations what receptor does dopamine interact with?
D1-dopaminergic receptors
So which catecholamine has strong effect on blood pressure:
- epinephrine or norepinephrine?
norepinephrine>epinephrine

(in fact epi. reduces diastolic pressure)
Only receptor that doesn't prefer epinephrine?
β1-receptors
equal affinity for epinephrine and nor-epinephrine
