ANS Parasympathetic Flashcards
mushroom acts on what
acts on muscarinic receptor
CN IX innervates
parotid gland (salivary)
CN X innervates
SO MUCH!
sympathetic stimulation think increase in
secretion
M3 think
contraction
during micturition what dominate
parasympathetic: M3
what is muscarinic agonist
muscarine
muscarinic receptors are all
g protein coupled
M2 is in the
heart
agonist for nicotinic receptor
nicotine
antagonist for nicotinic receptor
N2: Hexamethonium
N1: Curare
if hexamethonium is given what will happen to parasympathetic system
go down in activity
sympathetic will go down b/c N2 receptors are in both ganglia
N2 similar to
N1 in skeletal muscle
adrenal medulla has what receptors
N2
atropine and scopolamine are
muscarinic antagonist
what is the overall function of PNS?
restorative, to conserve energy
preganglionic neurons of the PNS arise from nuclei of where
CN III, VII, IX, X
S2-4
describe the length of pre an post ganglia length for PNS
preganglionic: long
postganglionic: short
where is the approximate origin of CN III
midbrain
where is the approximate origin of CN VII and IX
upper medulla
where is the approximate origin of CN X
middle medulla
how does CN III affect pupil?
constricts pupil
what does CN VII secrete?
tears
watery salivation
describe the myelination of the PNS
preganglionic cells are myelinated
postganglionic cells are unmyelinated
CN IX secretes
copious watery saliva
name some things CN X does
constricts airway slows heart rate stimulates digestion stimulates secretion of insulin and digestive enzymes in pancreas stimulates activity of intestines stimulates gall bladder to release bile
Name some functions of the splachnic nerves of PNS
micturition
dilates blood vessels in intesine and rectum
male erection
engorgement and secretions in female
why are pre and postganlionic axons called cholinergic
they release Ach
effector organs of PNS have what kind of receptor
only muscarinic
nicotine is an
agonist
muscarine is an
agonist
what does nicotine do
binds to nicotinic receptor, mimics Ach
what does muscarine do
binds to muscarine receptor, mimics Ach
where is M1 receptor found
smooth muscle & glands of gut
where is M2 receptor found
smooth and cardiac muscle
think heart!
where is M3 receptor found
smooth muscle and glands of all targets
where are N1 receptors found
skeletal muscle (motor end plate)
where are N2 receptors found
basically anywhere you would find N receptor that is not skeletal muscle. all preganglionig PNS have N2 receptor
what is mechanism of action for nicotinic receptors
open Na+ and K+ channels → depol.
what is an antagonist for nicotinic receptor
curare N1
Hexamethonium N2
