Adrenergic Farm Flashcards
____ has a concentration that is 35X higher in the cell than in the IF
K+
100X more permeable than sodium
____ has a concentration that is 12X lower in the cell than the cytoplasm
Na+
The cell has a much larger store of ____ _____ compared the IF
anionic protein
Net efflux of K+ continues until ______ force leading K+ outside is balance by the ________ force bringing it back
chemical, electrical
The channel for __ responds quicker to changes in voltage than the channel for __
Na+, K+
These two systems are mainly responsible for maintaining homeostasis..
autonomic and endocrine system
Preganglionic receptors..
nicotinic receptors
Post ganglionic receptors..
adrenal medulla and sympathetic - adrenergic
Parasympathetic - muscarinic
Somatic - nicotinic
Adrenergic transmission - end signal..
transmitter transported back into presynaptic terminus
cholinergic transmission - end signal..
hydrolyzed in synapse
biosynthesis of Endogenous adrenergic amines..
tyrosine, dopamine, norepi, and epi
Most important adrenergic receptors in PNS..
Aplha1, Beta1, Beta2
Alpha1 receptors on smooth muscle cells..
increase Ca++, increase activity of a myosin light chain kinase, increase myosin light chain phosphorylation and increase muscle contractility
Alpha1 receptors are important for..
BP
Alpha2 receptors are important for..
presynaptic termini
Alpha2 receptors inhibit..
epi and norepi release (CNS and PNS)
Beta2 receptors on smooth muscle..
increase PKA, phophorylate and inhibit myosin light chain kinase, diminish Ca++ levels and inhibit myosin light chain kinase —-> decrease muscle contractility
Beta1 receptors on cardiac muscle cells..
activate PKA, activate L type Ca++ channels, increase Ca++ levels and increase muscle contractility
