what is the most important control mech for coronary vessels
local metabolites
*hypoxia: decreased O2 will increase BF
*Adenosine: dilate
*NO
*H+
*CO2

*SNS is least importatn
is SNS important for coronaries?
not really
what mechanical forces work on coronary circulation
vessels are compressed during systole
what is the most important control mech for cerebral circulation
local metabolites
*CO2
*H+

*SNS is least important
does SNS matter for cerebral circulation
not really
what mechanical mech works when intracranial pressure increases
increased pressure will increase cerebral BF
what is the most important control mech for sk mm exercise, at rest
local metabolites

*Lactate
*K+
*adenosine

REST:
SNS
a1: constricts
B2: dilates
what happens to BF when mm contract
temporary decrease
when are local metabolites importatn during exercise? what about at rest?
Metabolites:
Exercise: lactate, K+, Adenosine

Rest: SNS
a1: constrict
B2: dilate
what is the most importatn control mech in skin
SNS. temp regulation

Cold will vasoconstrict
Hot will vasodilate
what intrinsic local control mechs does the heart do?
all
1. autoregulation
2. active hyperemia
3. reactive hyperemia

**the heart relies on local metabolites for control, hypoxia, adenosine, NO, H+, CO2
explain hyperemia and reactive hyperemia in heart
Active:
contractility increases so local O2 decreases and demand increases, coronaries dilate and BF increases

Reactive:
During contraction coronaries are compressed and BF is interrupted, during diastole coronaries dilate to increase BF to pay the O2 debt
what is the main control for cerebral circulation? why types of intrinsic control does it exhibit?
local metabolites: CO2, H+, adenosine, K+, NO

ALL: Autoreg, active & reactive hyperemia
at rest how is sk mm controlled?
SNS:
a1: constricts
b2: dilates

**constriction increases TPR
do mm do reactive hyperemia
you bet ya
when mm contract compress arteries and decrease flow, after occlusion BF increases to pay the O2 debt
what do lactate, K+, and adenosine do?
vasodilate sk mm during exercise

**at exercise local metabolites play the biggest role in regulation. Sk mm do autoregulation, when demand increases the BF increases
is cutenaous BF under intrinsic or extrinsic control
extrinsic, recall extrinsic controls BP and Flow (intrinsic meets metabolic needs)

**relies on SNS, will constrict when cold (preserve heat) and dilate when hot (get rid of heat)
if there is a slow forming occlusion in a coronary what happens
collateral circulation

**preexisting collateral vessels will enlarge
if your heart beats faster what happens
active hyperemia:
increased metabolic demand, adenosine is released to vasodilate the coronaries and supply the heart with more blood

*O2 demand now matches O2 supply
if a coronary vessel is occluded for a great length of time what happens
Reactive Hyperemia: there is a larger O2 debt to pay so there is a longer increase in BF to make up the difference

**magnitude and duration of increased flow due to duration of occlusion

**occlusion of coronaries occurs in systole
when does BF decrease in the coronaries
occlusion due to compression during diastole
what side of the heart displays the greatest effects of reactive hyperemia
left
what percent of coronary flow occurs in systole
20%

systole is shorter AND compression of coronaries
what is the sympathetic stim of the ARTERIES of the heart?
a1: NE constriction (overcome by other factors)
b2: EPI dilation
what is the sympathetic stim of the HEART itself? how does this in turn affect local metabolites
B1: increased HR, increased contractility

**this increases the workload of the heart and increases vadodilation
so in the heart we have vasodilators and vasoconstrictors, who wins
the dilators

Arteries: B2 dilates
Arteries: a1 constricts, out numbered
how do parasymp affect the heart? net effect?
well, it will cause coronaries to dilate via NO BUT...

it also will decrease the activity of the heart, decreased HR and decreased O2 consumption

NET: decreased coronary flow
the B1 receptors in the heart are stim by what branch of ANS? what other branch is out competed
the B1 in the heart itself increase metabolic demands by SNS

**the a1 in the vessels also are stimulated but to constrict, this is overcome by the effects of B1
the coronaries are dilated by PNS by what mech? is this the only factor at play
PNS dilates coronaries by cholinergic, to increase flow

***BUT... at the heart cholinergic PNS decreases HR and contractility which decreases the hearts O2 needs and will decrease flow

NET: decreased flow by PNS
can the brain survive without O2? do you think it exhibits reactive hyperemia
no
no
what implication does the skull have in cerebral circulation?
constant volume
the brain is incompressible, what implication does this have on flow
flow in MUST equal flow out

increase in arterial flow is met by an increase in venous flow
what prevents vasoactive substances from acting on the brain?
tight junction btwn endothelial cells

**prevents circulating substances from affecting cerebral blood flow
how is cerebral circulation controlled?
local metabolites, same as heart and exercising sk mm

CO2, H+, adenosine, K, NO
metabolites affecting cerebral and coronary.. 4 are the same and one is different
SAME:
CO2
Adenosine
H+
NO

Heart: Decreased O2
Brain: K+
what is the MOST important vasodilator for the brain
CO2 (H+)
what is the MOST important metabolic factor for the heart
adenosine
NO
what happens to cerebral BF when CO2 decreases
vessels constrict

**when CO2 increases the vessels dilate
how are CO2 and H+ related with cerebral BF
CO2 produced H+ so when CO2 is high so is H+

* an increase in either one causes dilation
what does K+ released by active neurons do to cerebral BF
dilates coronaries, increases BF
name 3 dilators of cerebral BF
NO
K
Adenosine
does the SNS have a strong effect on cerebral circulation?
nope
what is the cushing reflex

(where is P high?)
increased P in the head! can be due to hemmorage

increased P leads to increased hydrostatic P of CSF, it eventually exceeds MAP

Vessels AND brainstem become compressed wich leads to ischemia

**ischemia leads to increased SNS to constrict vessels, to increase TPR to increase MAP and Increase cerebral blood flow

*baroreceptor mediated bradycardia
wht does a hemmorage do in the brain
well, pressure increases, CSF hydrostatic pressure increases and exceeds MAP such that blood flow is inhibited. This causes ischemia, the ischemia then causes the SNS to vasoconstrict everything else to restore BF to the brain

**baroreceptor mediated reflex by bradycardia
what happens to cerebral BF when systemic pressure drops WAY low
ischemia

Vasomotor neurons become stimulated
SNS increases systemic constriction, TPR increases, MAP increases, cerebral BF increases
what is the ischemic response
when the brain gets no O2 bc the systemic BP is SO low

the vasomotor neurons are excited
SNS induced systemic constriction
TPR increased
MAP increased
cerebral BF increased
what determines TPR
the degree of vasoconstriction in sk mm
a1 predominates in sk mm when...
rest! causes constriction

*the sk mm is largely under SNS control at rest

a1: activated by NE increases resistance, decreases BF


b2: dilates, activated by EPI from adrenal gland, decreases resistance, increases BF
what does EPI do?
acts on B2 in sk mm to dilate them and increase BF
withdraw of SNS on sk mm does what
passive dilation
at rest in sk mm high resistance is caused by...

at exercise in sk mm low resistance is cause by
rest: a1 constriction by NE

exercise: dilation by lactate, K+, adenosine, AND b2 dilation by epinepherine from adrenal medulla
adenosine, K and lactate do what
dilate sk mm during exercise, autoreg, active/reactive hyperemia
what causes hyperemia in sk mm? what does this do to venous return
mm contraction. decreased BF will increase lactate, K, adenosine to increase BF

**the compression also increases venous return
at 30% contraction of sk mm what happens to bf? 70%
30%: flow interrupted
70% flow stopped
muscle pump does what
increased sk mm perfusion

*contraction/relaxation cycle creates intermettient BF

**decreases venous Pressure which increases the pressure gradient and increases flow
what happens to BF in the calf during rhythemic contractions
BF increases

**venous return increases, venous pressure decreases, change in P increases, larger driving force for flow, flow increases
at low conc what does epi do?
high conc?
Low: dilate, B2

High: constricts a1
what does vasopressin and angiotensin do?
constriction

**when BP deceases these are released and BP is restored
what is the main fx of skin
BP reg: major resevoir for blood
Heat loss: major fx
Nutrients: necessary but monimal
when there is in an increase in bloodvolume what happens (hypervolumia)
some blood enters cutaneous circulation to try to decreased the volume
what happens when there is a decrease in blood volume (hypovolumia)
blood is taken from the skin
where does blood flow directly from an artery to a vein? why?
in thte skin, arteriovenous anastamose

allows blood to bypass capillary beds
where are arteriovenous anastamoses located
cutaneous circulation, direct a to v path

Finger, Lips, Toes, Ears, Nose
when are AVA (aretriovenous anastamoses) open
open when its hot, (SNS is removed)
also open during prolonged cold exposure

**open by decreasing sympathetic tone

Closed with sympathetic tone
are AVA's regulated by intrinsic or extrinsic factors
NO intrinsic: no metabolic factors, active/reactive hyperemia

**tonic symp tone keeps constricted
how do AVA's open?
passive dilation by removing SNS
arterioles in the cutaneous circulation have what receptors
lots of a

NO b2

**remember a1 constrict and b2 dilate so it makes sense
where in the skin do we have sympathetic cholinergic receptors
sweat glands
dilation via brady kinin
how is brady kinin made? what does it do?
from symp cholinergic receptors to the sweat glands, activation makes bradykinin

**brady kinin mediates dilation
we know AVA's dont do intrinisic regulation (autoreg, re/active hyperemis) so arterioles in the skin?
yep!
where in the skin is the greatest blood resevoir
venous plexus in the skin

**important for heat transfer

**constriction via SNS
how is heat conserved
the skin has SNS that clamps down on its AVA's and arterioles to reduce heat transfer to environment
how is heat lost
SNS is reduced to allow vasodilation in the skin and heat is transfered to the environemnt via venous plexus
what does local cooling/heat do to cutaneous circulation
cool: constrict
heat: dilate

**due to direct effects of vasculature, and CNS reflex center
if one part of the body is exposed to cold what happens to the other part
the part exposed will constrict immediatly, that info goes to brain and makes the rest of the body regulated to the cold temp

**a spinal cord injury leave an individual with poor temp control. we need the CNS integration center for temp regulation
explain how skin does reactive hyperemia
sitting leads to compression, accumulation of metabolites, this activates nocireceptors which makes it pain ful and you shitf to let blood flow back
explain cold induced vasodilation,
when its SO cold the SM freezes and cant constrict, so we get passive dilation
in the skin what does....do?
epi
antiotensin II
vasopressin
epi: constriction
angiotenisn II: constriction
vasopressin: constriction
