Q

What type of motor system is the somatic nervous system? What is the unit? Where are the cell bodies? Where do axons synapse? What does pre-synaptic terminal release? What type of receptor is on motor endplate?

A
  • voluntary motor system under conscious control - single motorneuron and skeletal muscle fiber - in the CNS - brainstem of spinal cord - directly on skeletal muscle - acetylcholine - nicotinic cholinergic receptor

Q

What type of system is the autonomic nervous system? The unit of this system? Where are the cell bodies of pre-ganglionic neuron? Where do axons of pre-ganglionic neurons synapse? Where do axons of post-ganglionic neurons synapse? What do pre-ganglionic neurons release? Post ganglionic?

A
  • involuntary system that controls function primarily of visceral organs - two neurons: pre-ganglionic and post-ganglionic - in CNS - cell bodies of post-ganglionic neurons in autonomic ganglia outside CNS - visceral effector organs - acetylcholine (ACh) - ACh, NE, or neuropeptides

Q

What does N mean (plus the numbers…)

A

N = Nicotinic

1 - cholinergic

2 - cholinergic

3 - Muscarinic

4 - cholinergic

5 - adrenergic

6 - alpha and beta conformation

7 - NE

17
Q
  • In addition to classic sympathetic system, there is also a post ganglionic _______ neuron that releases _________ that affect ___________
  • There is also the instance in which Ach activate nicotinic-cholinergic receptors on the _______ glands that produce _____ and ______ which are discharged into ________
A
  • dopaminergic, dopamine, effector cells (D)
  • adrenal, NE, epinephrine, systemic ciurculation
18
Q

  1. Miosis (protects retina) vs. mydriasis (opens pupil)
  2. GI stimulation vs. GI inhibition
  3. heart rate slow vs. fast
  4. visceral secretions decreased vs. increased
  5. bronchioloes relaxed vs. contracted
  6. respiratory rate increased vs. decreased
  7. operates all the time vs all the time plus stress
  8. urinary bladder relaxed vs contracted
  9. metabolism hyperglycemia vs. normoglycemia
  10. circulation skeletal muscle vs. smooth muscle
A

Q

Organization (Sympathetic vs. Parasympathetic)

  1. pre-ganglionic
  2. autonomic ganglia
  3. pre-gangl axon
  4. post-gangl axon
  5. effector organs
  6. ganglion
  7. effector organ
  8. receptor
A
  1. spinal cord T1-L3 - CN 3,7,9,10 spinal cord S2-S4
  2. para- or pre-vertebral - effector organ
  3. short - long
  4. long - short
  5. smooth muscle, glands, cardiac muscle – smooth muscle, glands, cardiac muscle
  6. ACh/nicotinic – ACh/nicotinic
  7. norepinephrine – ACh/muscarinic
  8. a1, a2,b1, b2 – muscarinic
20
Q

Which system has its own intrinsic nervous system? What is it called? What order of neuron is it? What transmitter has the gut developed? What two examples does he want us to remember?

A
  • the gut
  • the enteric nervous system
  • 3rd order neuron
  • enteric neuropeptide families
  • tachykinins and opioids
21
Q

Enteric nervous system: What does sp stand for? Dyn? what type of thing is this? What do they do?

A
  • substance p
  • dynorphin
  • opiod
  • open calcium channels
22
Q

Identify 1 and 2. What does inflammatory bowel disease cause?

A
  1. circular smooth muscle contraction
  2. longitudinal smooth muscle contraction
    - can’t contract, loss of nutrition, diarhhea etc.
23
Q

Are opiods involved in the segmentation response in gi? What would you prescribe in response to inflammatory bowel disease and why? What drug is an example? What does it do?

A
  • yes
  • opioids, cause contraction of smooth muscle (segmentation)
  • loperamide
  • inhibits fluid secretion, increases absorption, stimulates segmentation
24
Q

What is the opposite of stress?

A
  • torpor
25
Q

Phase which occurs in the absence of all cephalic, gastric, and intestinal stimulation

A
  • basal phase
26
Q

What phase is mediated by sight, smell, taste, swallowing?

A
  • cephalic phase
27
Q

What phase is mediated by gastric distension and (protein in food)?

A
  • gastric phase
28
Q

What phase is mediated by duodenal (amino acid in food)?

A
  • intestinal phase
29
Q

Why are humans are greater risk for gastric ulcers than cats and dogs?

A
  • are basal gastric secretion is 10% whereas there’s is 1%
30
Q

What do mast cells secrete? G cells? mucous cells? parietal cells?

A
  • histamine, gastrin (hormone), mucous, gastric acid
31
Q

What 3 things activate gastric parietal cell?

A

histamine, acetylchoine, gastrin
