Alpha and Beta Antagonist ppt Flashcards
The autonomic nerouns are divided into what 2 parts
preganglionic and post ganglionic
which sneurons leaves the spinal cord fromthe cranial, thoracic and lumbar or sacral region to form a synaptic connection
preganglionic
which nerons section sends their axons directly to the effector organ?
post ganglionic
Most Postganglionic autonomic nerves are what?
Nonmylinated and have slow conductino
Most preganglionic neurons are what
mylinated an dhave fast conduction
there are ___ segmentally arranged ganglia that cansit of 2 chains bilat down spinal cord
22
which ganlionic nerves are short and which are long?
pre short
post long
what NT mediates synaptic transmission B/T preganglionic and post ganglionic nerve fiber in the Sympathetic pathway
ACh
what is the NT if the postganglionic sypathetic nerve pathway (at the end organ junction)
NE
sites that use ACh as their NT are termed
cholinergic
sites that use NE as the NT are termed
adrenergic
*****************************************
the adrenal Medulla unlike the postganglionic sympathetic nerve terminal, releases what as it’s primary catecholamine
Epinephrine
a good pic to refer to notice the short preganlionic neurons and the long postganglionic neurons.
also notice the PNS vs the SNS and thier NT
Autonomic regulation of periphreral involuntary organs
most organs receive duel innervation consiting of _____ and _____ components
if blockade of one system is acheived it leads to ________ of response by the other
SNS and PNS
exaggeration
******************************************
in both the SNS and PNS ganglia the NT released by the preganglionic neurons is what?
ACh
another pic to look at understand and master
**********************
the postganglionic sympathetic NT is what
NE
******************************
the post ganglionic parasympathetic NT is what
ACh
how is ACh broken down
via acetylcholinesterase into acetic acid and choline
How is NE broken down
MAO
COMT
what are the 2 types of ADRENERGIC receptors
alpha
Beta
