Adrenergics Flashcards
What is the preferential binding to beta-1?
Isoproterenol > epinephrine = norepinephrine
What is the preferential binding to alpha-1?
Epinephrine >/= norepinephrine»_space; isoproterenol
What is the preferential binding to beta-2?
Isoproterenol > epinephrine»_space; norepinephrine
What is the preferential binding to alpha-2?
Epinephrine >/= norepinephrine»_space; isoproterenol
What is the effect of beta-1 activity on blood pressure?
Beta-1 increases HR and SV
BP=(HR)(SV)(TPR)
What are the effect of alphas-1&2 activity on blood pressure?
Alpha-1 increases TPR
Alpha-2 decreases TPR
BP=(HR)(SV)(TPR)
What is the effect of beta-2 activity on blood pressure?
Beta-2 decreases TPR
BP=(HR)(SV)(TPR)
Besides the alphas and betas, what other receptor activity can effect BP?
Muscarinic receptors
What transmitter binds to muscarinic receptors?
Acetylcholine
What is the effect of muscarinic activity on blood pressure?
Decreases HR and TPR
BP=(HR)(SV)(TPR)
What is the transmitter from the pre-ganglionic fibers? What kind of receptor is used in the sympathetic pathway?
ACh
Nicotinic receptor
What is a fancy ganglion?
Adrenal Medulla
What receptor(s) are activated by dopamine?
Beta-1 and alpha-1
Dope is #1! So Beta1 and alpha1
Because dopamine activates beta-1 and alpha-1 receptors, what is its effect on BP?
Dopamine will increase BP
Beta-1 increases HR and SV
Alpha-1 increases TPR
What would be necessary to inhibit dopamine activity?
Alpha-1 blocker (Terazosin)
Beta-1 blockers (MAA)
Non-selectives
Alpha (Trazadone)
Beta (non-MAA -alol’s)
What is Dobutamine?
Dobutamine is a beta-1 agonist. butamIne is beta1. Buta, beta, its close. i is like 1. so Beta 1. “Will be on the test”
