Q

where are pregnglionic sympathetic visceral motor neurones

A

intermedialateral part of the grey mater.
in the thing that looks like a deer.
it goes from preganag to white Ramus to postgang to smooth and muscle and such.

Q

what two key characteristics are shown by sympathetic trunk

A

convergence: many diff pregang can synapse in one single postgang
divergence: different pregang will synapse at diff vertebrae levels

Q

whats special about the rostral apart of the sympathetic chain

A

3 cervical ganglia are not connected to cervical spinal cord but rather to thoracic spinal cord from T1 down.
they are called the superior cervivalg ganglion, middle and inferior.

they innervate face to make blushing, NO mucus secretions and pupil dilation

Q

whats the structure of pregang and postgang

A

myelinated with A and B axons
post gang have unmelinated with type C axons.

16
Q

why is the adrenal gland imp in the symatheitc NS

A

its a postgnaglion neurone that never grew an axon.
releases adrenaline in blood stream. by chromatin cells int he medulla.
receives input from pregang.

17
Q

do all postganglionice cells release Adrenaline

A

all except sweat gland.s
they release Ach which activates No release in blood vessels hat supply the glands. which increases bloodf low into the glands to be secreted as sweat

18
Q

what drugs block sympathetic effects and whats the main risk with them

A

beta blockers
prazosin

hypotension and death

19
Q

are all vascular beds prone to vascular tone control

A

tout sauf brain and heart

20
Q

what happens during exercise

A

local chemical facts like pH cause local vasodilation by SNS copes by causing vasoconstriction everywhere else Sauf exercising muscle.

21
Q

where is alpha 1 receptor found

antagonist

A

vascular SM

antagnosi t is prazosin. reduces BP

22
Q

where is alpha 2 receptor found

antagonist

A

pregang sympathetic nervous terminals

clonidine reduces BP

23
Q

where is beta 1 receptor found

antagonist

A

heart and kidneys
increase force of contraction of myocardium

antagnist reduce HR in stressed or HT people bisoprolol

24
Q

where is beta 2 receptor found

A

bronchi relax muscle

agonists causes relaxation in asthmatics salbutamol (short actin)

25
Q

where is beta 3 receptor found

A

increase lipolysis and gluconeogenesis and adipose tissue.

26
Q

what happens during exercise

A

B1 increases HR
B2 relax bronchi
B3 increases lipolysis

27
Q

what happens during haemorrhage injury

A

vasoconstriction

alpha receptors increase clotting speed.
