(05) 2-25 Flashcards
1-2. What influences venous return?
- blood volume
- dilation or constristion of veins
(Are Pulsations Seen in Veins?)
not usually
- none trasmitted from capillaries
- if you do see them - what is the source?
- Are jugular pulses normal or abnormal?
- transmitted back from heart
- abnormal
red dots are where pressure goes if heart stops
what does huge pressure difference tell you about difference between arteries and veins? - veins are way more compliant
(Control of Circulation)
1-2. What are the two main goals?
- What are the three ways blood flow controlled to different regions?
- relative importance of these controls may differ across the various organs and tissues
- maintain normal blood pressure
- enough blood going to individual tissues to satisfy individual needs
- local, neural, humoral
(Control of the circulation)
- which one is intrinsic?
2-3. which two are extrinsic?
- local (don’t have much effect on overall blood pressure)
- neural (affects heart, venous system, arterial system)
- hormonal (important in situations of stress)
(there are also sensors that help extrinsic)
(Vascular Smooth Muscle)
- controls what three things?
- contraction is via sliding filament-cross bridge mechanism, but lacks striations… which is greater… actin or myosin?
- functional coupling of smooth muslce cells (gap junction)
- slow contraction, high force, prolonged effect
- What controls contraction?
- total peripheral resistance (TPR), vascular tone, blood flow distribution
- actin > myosin
- Ca++ (differs from heart in mechanism)
(Vascular Smooth Muscle)
1-3. What are three sources of Ca for contraction?
- receptor operated channels
- release from sarcoplasmic reticulum
- voltage-gated channels
(just read the rest of it)
(Vascular Smooth Muscle)
1-3. what three things do we need for contraction?
(there is no troponin)
- thick or thin filament regulated?
- Ca++
- calmodulin
- myosin kinase
- thick - changes in myosin activation (rather than actin activated as it is in heart)
(look at these diagrams and get a general idea of what is going on…)
(Vascular “Tone”)
- What maintains vascular tone? and therefore what? allows for what?
- Vascular smooth muscle of most arteries and veins is innervated only by what?
- increase in sympathetic activation –> ?
- decrease?
- partial contraction; vessel diameter; further constriction or relaxation
- sympathetic fibers
- increase vascular R (increased symapthetic tone)
- decreasd vascular R (decreased symphathetic tone)
(Intrinsic (Local) flow Regulation)
- What is the most importnat intrinsic mechanism? using what compounds?
- What is the situation with higher metablic activty and higher blood flow called?
- what is an increase in blood flow that occurs in response to period of time in whch flow has been restricted?
- metabolic regulation; CO2, lactic acid, other
(go over this chart)
- active hyperemia
- reactive hyperemia
(Intrinsic Local Flow regulation)
(Autoregulation)
- Allows relatively constant flow to tissue despite what?
- When transmural P how does vessel react?
- Tends to maintain constant flow when BP is between what range?
- Below autoregulatory range, does flow increase or decrease as perfusion decreases?
- Below a certain value what happens?
- fluctuations in BP
- constricts (+ vice versa)
- 60 - 190 mmHg
- decreases
- arterioles close and flow stops (critical closing P)
(Intrinsic (Local) Flow Regulation)
(Paracrines)
(endothelial mediated reguation)
- nitric oxide –> ?; release stimulated by what?
- endothelin-1 –> ?; released from what?
- prostacyclin –> ?
- vasodilation; increase vascular sheer forces (increased flow)
(also serotonin, ADP from platelets, etc are vasodiators)
- vasoconstriction; injured epithelium
- vasodilation
(Intrinsic (Local) Flow regulation)
(Long-term adjustments in blood flow)
1-3. name three
- change in degree of vascularity
- tissue demand for O2
- angiogensis factors, collateral vessels
(Extrinsic Control of the Circulation)
(Nervous system and humoral regulation)
- superimposed on intrinsic (local) regulation
- necessary for normal functions?
- allows greater effectiveness of control in situations such as exercise, hemorrhage, etc
(Autonomic NErvous System)
- Sympathetic (adrenergic) - release of what? activatino of what?
- Parasympathetic: release of what? inhbition of what?
- So what is the big goal ehre?
- no
- NE; activation of CV system (pressor response - increase constriction)
- Ach; heart (+ some vessels)
- arterial pressure regulation
(Central Regulation of CV system)
