chapter 21 and CLI quiz drugs Flashcards
what determines the adequacy of perfusion of the tissues of the body
vascular tone
when does ischemia occur
when decreased perfusion leads to an O2 deficit
when does hypoxia occur
when there is O2 deprivation despite adequate perfusion
what is the common treatment for angina pectoris
nitroglycerin
what effect does acetylcholine have when applied directly to de-endothelialized blood vessels
vasoconstriction
what effect does acetylcholine have when applied to normally endothelialized vessels
vasodilation
what is the main isoform involved with cardiovascular actions and is produced by endothelial cells
ET-1
what do ETa receptors on vascular smooth muscle cells mediate
vasoconstriction
what does ETb predominately mediate
vasodilation via release of prostacyclin and NO
what does activation of alpha1- adrenergic receptors on vascular smooth muscle cells cause
vasoconstriction
what does activation of beta2-adrenergic receptors on vascular smooth muscle cells induce
vasodilation
what is the equation for blood flow
perfusion pressure/resistance
what inhibitors prevent cGMP hydrolysis and thereby promote myosin light chain dephosphorylation, especially in smooth muscle of corpus calcium erosion
cGMP phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitors
how do calcium channel blockers cause vasodilation
by reducing intracellular calcium concentration
what do hydrazine and beta-adrenergic antagonists modulate
vascular tone
