postprandial gut motility
peristalsis
fasting gut motility
migrating motor complex (MMC)
motor nucleus in brainstem that receives info. from NTS
Dorsal nucleus
collector of sensory info. in the brainstem
Nucleus tractus solitarius
main motor nucleus in brainstem that receives info. from NTS
Nucleus ambiguus
a1 and M3 have what G subunit receptor
Gq (Ca2+)
EP4 (for PGE2) and 5-HT4 have what G subunit receptor
Gs (cAMP)
a2 (presynaptic), mu, M2, D2 have what G subunit receptor
Gi

5-HT3 and 5-HT4
parasympathetic and sympathetic innervation to visceral SMC
parasympathetic (M3 stimulates)
sympathetic (a2 inhibits)
sphincter innervation
a1 constricts
plexus that controls peristalsis in ENS
myenteric plexus
plexus that regulates absorption and secretion in ENS
Submucosal plexus
stimulatory motor neurons in ENS
Ach and substance P
inhibitory motor neurons in ENS
NO and VIP
myenteric ___ and ____ neurons are the primary secretomotor controllers
NE and Ach
in myenteric plexus, NE binds what
a2
in myenteric plexus, Ach binds what
M3
what motor neuron binds a1 directly for sphincter contraction
NE
what motor neuron has indirect action on sphincter and what interneuron causes sphincter relaxation
Ach; NO
_____ binds a2 for SMC relaxation and decreases intestinal secretion
NE
____ binds M3 for SMC contraction, and increase in gastric and pancreatic secretion
Ach
sympathetic stimulation to myenteric plexus causes constipation or diarrhea
constipation
parasympathetic stimulation to myenteric plexus causes constipation or diarrhea
diarrhea
