Q

Actions of Alpha 1 Adrenergic receptors

A

VC,eyes,hair,stop GIT

  • Generealized Vasoconstriction (Skin, mucous membrane,internal abdominal organs, splanchnic BVs)

Contraction of:
* Dilator pupilae –> pupil dilatation (mydrasis)
* Erector Pile (hair erectors)
* All sphincters of GIT & urinary tract

Relaxation of:
* wall of GIT
+
Facilitates neuromuscular transmission

Q

Action of Beta 2 Adrenrgic receptors

A

EL HOROOB

  • VD to skeletal & Coronary Blood vessels
  • Bronchodilatation

Increase energy, plasma glucose & glucose utilisation:
* increase insulin secretion
* Increase Glycogenolysis
* Increase Lipolysis

Relaxation of:
* GIT wall
* Urinary bladder wall
* Uterus wall

-Muscle tremors

-Increase Intracellular potassium uptake/ decerease extracellular potassium/hypokalemia: to facilitate more muscular contractions

-Increase Aqueous Humour
