31
Q

What is the rate limiting step of the synthesis of cathelomines

A

converting tyrosine to DOPA

32
Q

The conversion of tyrosine to DOPA can be inhibited by what?

A

metyrosine

33
Q

What is normally the final product in catecholamines

A

Norepinephrine

34
Q

What is the final product of catecholamine synthesis in adrenal medulla and certain areas of brain

A

epinephrine

35
Q

What is the final product of catecholamine synthesis in dopaminergic neurons

A

dopamine

36
Q

How are catecholamines stored

A

transported into vescile by vesicular monoamine transport (VMAT)

37
Q

What is VMAT inhibited by

A

reserpine

38
Q

How are catecholamines terminated by simple diffusion

A

Catecholamines diffuse into circulation and are metabolized by catechol-O-methyl transferase (COMT)

39
Q

How are catecholamines reuptaked neuronally

A

taken up at nerve terminals by solute carriers

40
Q

How are catecholamines reuptaked extraneuronally

A

using extraneuronal transporters

41
Q

What happens after catecholamines have been reuptaked

A

can be restored into vesicles or metabolized by MAO

42
Q

What type of receptors are adrenergic receptors?

A

G-protein coupled

43
Q

What are the 3 main mechanisms of adrenergic receptors?

A

a. Activation of phospholipase C which increased inositol triphosphate and DAG concentrations, as well as increased protein kinase C activity
b. Inhibit adenylyl cyclase, which decreases cAMP conc. And decreases protein kinase A
c. Activate adenylyl cyclase leading to increased cAMP and protein kinase A activity
