Nicotinic Receptor Types
N1 = (para)sympathetic ganglia

N2 = neuromuscular junction
Nicotinic receptor structure and function:
2x Ach [=] Nicotinic Receptor

increases Na+ conductivity
(depolarizes)

*binding to alpha-SU*
GABAa Receptor
2x GABA [=] GABAa

increases permeability of Cl-
(hyperpolarizes)

(-) phosphodiesterase

prevent breakdown of
cAMP ---> 5'-AMP
Papaverine
(-) phosphodiesterase

prevent breakdown of
cAMP ---> 5'-AMP
Effects of GPCR IP3 and DAG
contraction of smooth muscle

increased glandular secretion
EGF Receptor Fxn
Epidermal Growth Factor = EGF

Tyrosine Kinase---> transcription factor

slower to act
Cortisol MOA Intracellular
(cytoplasmic)
Cortisol [=] Cytoplasmic Gucocorticoid Rec

--->dissociation of Heat-SHock Protein allows uncovering of DNA-binding site

-->transcription factor
-increase cytokines
decrease lipocortin
MOA Estrogen, Androgens, Thyroxines
transcription factors

steroids
Targets of phosphorylation in TK
serine

threonine
IP3 and smooth muscle contraction
activates MLCK
-------->
+(P) to myosin light-chain (MLC)
---->
MLC binds to actin
---->
smooth muscle contraction


EXCEPTION beta-2 VASODIALATION
IP3 and increased glandular secretion
IP3 releases Ca++ from SER
----->
increased cytosolic Ca++
--------->
Ca++ [=] Calmodulin
--------->
activated enzymes
--------->
increased secretion
Beta-2 GPCR
endothelial cells (vasodialation)

IP3-----> +(P) MLCK inactivates

MLCK(P)----> no +(P) of MLC

MLC cannot interact with actin
------------>
no vascular contraction
---------->

---------->
-(P) protein kinases (inactive)
----------->
-(P) MLC
-------------->
VASODILATION
decrease platelet aggragates
NO (nitric oxide) produced by
endothelial cells, neurons = constitutive

macrophages, neutrophils, sm. muscle cells = cytokine induced
Sildenafil
inhibits phosphodiesterase of
cGMP----->5'GMP

increases vasodilation, erection, and prevents platelet aggregation
