Q

alpha 2: location

A

think inhibitory!
sympathetic postganglionic nerve terminals (autoreceptors), platelets, lipocytes, and heteroreceptors in GI tract
(rember: autoreceptors are inhibitory)

Q

SANS heart: receptor and effects

A

B1 (little B2)

  • SA - increase HR
  • atria - increase contractility, conduction
  • AV - automaticity, conduction
  • Perkinjee - automaticity, conduction
  • ventricle - conduction, contractility, automaticity, pacemaker
17
Q

beta 2: location

A

Beta 2 - everything but heart

vascular smooth muscle of skeletal muscle, bronchial smooth muscle, walls of the GI tract and bladder

18
Q

beta 2: effect

A

relaxation (inhibition) - dilation of vascular smooth muscle, dilation of bronchioles, relaxation of the bladder wall

19
Q

beta 2: mech of action

A

Gs; increase adenylyl cyclase, increase cAMP

20
Q

Nn location

A

Adrenal medulla, chain ganglia, CNS

21
Q

Nm location

A

neuromuscular junction

22
Q

Nn, Nm mech of action

A

opening of Na, K channels (depolarization)

23
Q

M2 location

A

heart, some smooth muscle, CNS, presynapse

24
Q

M2 action

A

inhibitory in heart

25
Q

M3 location

A

smooth muscle and glands

26
Q

M3 action

A

excitatory in smooth muscle/glands (increase motility, increase secretion)

M3 - think secretion and contraction

27
Q

M1,3,5 mech of action

A

increase IP3/DAG -> increase Ca

28
Q

M2/M4 mech of action

A

inhibit adenylyl cyclase, decrease cAMP, also open K+ channels

29
Q

beta 3 location and mech

A

increase adenylyl cyclase in lipocytes
