Autonomic nervous system Power point Flashcards
Neurotransmitters
Molecules that communicate information between neurons and target cell/organ at synapse
***The neurotransmitter for the sympathetic neuron system is?
***catecholamine which release Api and Norepi
the neurotransmitter for the parasympathetic system is?
Aceytcholine
Synapse
Pre- synaptic fiber
Neurotransmitters
Chemical “messenger” binds with receptor cites on the post-synaptic membrane
-may stimulate a response
Cholinergic
belongs to the parasympathetic response
- neurotransmitter = acetylcholine
- receptor is either 1) Muscarinic
2) Nicotinic
Andrenergic
is the sympathetic side. Epinephrine and nor-epinephrine receptors - Alpha - Bata 1 - Bata 2
Ganglion
A mass of nerve cells outside of the central nervous system
- is a neurotransmitter switching station
***Preganglion neuron parasympothetic
***long neuron then short to effector
1st order
***preganglion neuron sympathetic
***short neuron then long to effector
2nd order
Enzymes
- ** nerve gas
- inhibits the brake down neurotransmitters into their components parts
- ***Acetylcholinesterase (ache)
***Muscarinic cholinergic receptor cites are found
- **post ganglionic only
- in cardiac muscle
- smooth muscle
- they are found in the post ganglion synapses of parasympathetic NS
Muscarinic cholinegic cites
impact Post gan
***Nicotinic cholinergic receptor cites are found
found preganglionic
- **-neuromusclular junsctiomn
- preganglionic synapses
- preganglionic synapses parasympathetic divisions
Preganglionic
first order
- Neurotrannsmitter is ACH
- receptor types is Nicotinic
