Cholinergics Flashcards
Referred to the involuntary nervous system
ANS
Involved in the voluntary controlled functions such as the contraction of skeletal muscles
Somatic
Important in reflex regulation of the ANS, examples include the baroreceptor reflex and emotional stimuli
Afforestation neurons
Pre and postganglionic neurons
Efferent neurons
Preganglionic cell body located within
CNS
Where do preganglionic cells emerge
From the brain stem or spinal cord and make a synaptic connection in a ganglia, these ganglia function as relates between the presynaptic neuron and a second neuron
Cell body originates in the ganglia
Postganglionc neurons
Is nonmyleinated and terminates on effector organs
Postganglionic neuron
Preganglionic fibers of the sympathetic nervous system arise from
Thoracolumbar regions of spinal cord
Parasympathetic neurons arise from what
Cranial sacral
(CN III, VII, IX, X)
(S2-4)
Where do muscarinic agonists work
-various organs in the body
Is a muscarinic agonist symp or parasympathetic like
Parasympathetic
What is the exception to the muscarinic agonists being parasympathetic like
Sweat glands.
Effect of muscarinic agonist on eyes
Constrict
Muscarinic agonist effect on heart
Bradycardia
Muscarinic agonist effect on lungs
Bronchoconstriion
Muscarinic agonist affect on GI
Increased gut motility
Muscarinic agonist affect on urinary
Increased motility of urinary
Muscarinic agonist affect on sweat glands
Will cause sweating
Side effects of muscarinic agonists
Sweating, diarrhea
Is muscarinic antagonist more symp like or parasympathetic like
Sympathetic
Effect of muscarinic antagonist on eye
Dilate
Affect of muscarinic antagonist on heart
Increased HR
Affect of muscarinic antagonist on the lungs
Bronchodilate
Affect of muscarinic antagonist on GI
Decreased motility
Affect of muscarinic antagonist on sweat glands
Stop sweating
