Q

(Long-Term Blood PRessure Regulation)

  1. longer to become active - effective for long term - can it return arterial BP back to normal?
  2. Which mechanism is most important?
  3. if BP increases –> direct increase in renal output of what? leads to what? leads to?
  4. If BP is too low –> decrease in Na and H2O output –> ? —> ?

Q

(Properties of the Heart)

1-4. what are the four

  1. do these properties occur without extrinsic innervation?
A
  1. Automaticity, rhythmicity - ability to generate electrical impulse (chronotropy)
  2. Conductiivty - ability to depolarize and conduct electrical impulse (dromotropy)
  3. Contractility - ability to shorten and do work (inotropy)
  4. Lusitropy - ability to relax and fill
  5. yes (although autonomic innervation can modify them)

Q
  1. myocytes are most common
  2. purkinje fiber cells are big cells - conduct rapidly - good electrical conductivy
  3. AV node cells are smaller - makes for much slower conduction (same with SA node)
  4. Heart acts like a functional what?
A
  1. syncytium (acts like a single cell) - due to gap junctions

Q

Cariac Innervation

two points she wants to make

  1. sympatheic nervous innervation goes to what part of heart?
  2. how about parasympathetic?

this is all we need to know about this

(we don’t need innervation for heart to function)

A
  1. Sa node, Av node, atrial and ventricular tissue (all over the heart)
  2. alot to SA node and AV, and a little to atrial tissue - but not to ventricles

Q

(Cardiac Cell Electrophysiology)

(Cardiac action potential duration)

  1. much longer or shorter thatn APs of nerve and skeletal muscle?

(Cardiac Action potentials differ among different types of heart cells)

(Two main types of cardiac APs)

  1. fast response: what have these?
  2. slow response: what have these?
A
  1. longer
  2. atrial and ventricular muscle cells, and purkinje fibers
  3. sinus and A-V nodal cells

Q

(Cadiac Cell Electrophysiology)

(Sarcolemma)

  1. maintains what?
  2. responds to depolarizing wave by doing what?
  3. at rest the sarcolemma is impermable or permeable to Na and Ca?
  4. At resting membrane potential, what is important in ion maintentance?
  5. During depolarization, controlled entry of ions through what?

(Conductance)

  1. permeability of the mebrane to what?
  2. conductance helps determeine what?
A
  1. ion gradients
  2. opening and closing specific ion channels (voltage-activated channels)
  3. impermeable (some background leakage of K out)
  4. Na, K-ATPase —> 2 K in, 3 Na out
  5. their specific voltage -activated channels
  6. a particular ion
  7. the rate of current flow

Q

(Cell Membrane Potential)

  1. electrical and chemical forces important
  2. ions –> across sarcolemma only by some type of carrier: channel, exchanger, or pump - channel must be open
  3. Ion movement depends on what two things?
A
  1. electrical driving force (potential) and concentration gradient

Q

(Resting Membrane Potential)

  1. Electrical potential difference across sarcolemma when cell at rest is around what?
  2. Mainly related to what? as defined by what? small contribution from what other ions?
  3. What defines relation between ion concentration gradient and membrane potential forces?
A
  1. -80 to -90 mV (inside is negative - sarcolemma is polarized)
  2. electrochemical gradient for K+; nernst equation; Na and Cl
  3. Nernst equation
17
Q

(Resting Membrane Potential)

  1. maintained by what two things?
A
  1. passive outward K current
  2. Na/K ATPase activity (intracellular proteins contribute to negative intracelluar charge as well)
18
Q

(REsting –> Activaton)

  1. cell actively maintains RMP
  2. At rest, sarcolemma is realatively permeable to K, but no to Na or Ca
  3. For normal depolarizaiton, what must occur?
  4. for repolarization, what must occur?
A
  1. Na and Ca must enter in a controlled what (–> membrance becomes less negative (depolarized))
  2. K+ must exit
19
Q

1-3. What are the three configurations?

A
  1. closed (“resting”)
  2. open (“activated”)
  3. inactivated (“recovering from activation”)
20
Q

she talekd about this picture a decent amount

  1. Why is the inactivaiton state important?
A
  1. if you overstimulate a muscle you get tetany
21
Q
  1. overal ionic conductance at a given time reflects what?
  2. K+ currents: what are two types of channels?
A
  1. the number of channels open
  2. voltage operated; ligand (G protein and non-G prtoin dependent) what she wants us to focus on is the fact that K going out of cell to bring it back to resting membrane potential
22
Q

(“Fast Response” Action Potential)

  1. characteristic of what?

24
Q

(Vascular Action Potential)

  1. answer the question
A

if alot of sodium channels are still in recovery pahse - not enough sodium will be able to go thorugh channel therefore upstoke ins’t as rapid

25

she got cut off here - so figure this out
