Control of Tissue Blood Flow Flashcards
What organs have alpha-1 receptors?
GI, skin
What organs have beta-2 receptors?
skeletal & coronary arteries
What kind of receptors do cerebral arteries have?
THEY DO NOT RESPOND TO NEURAL/ENDOCRINE CONTROL. only local.
What contribution does the PNS make to neural control of tissue blood flow?
Vasodilation & secretion of the salivary gland through VIP & ACh
What compounds have effects as hormones to control tissue blood flow?
1) epinephrine
2) AngII
3) ADH/Vasopressin
4) Bradykinin
5) Histamine
How does AngII affect tissue blood flow?
directly causes smooth muscle vasoconstriction
–> increase TPR
How does ADH affect tissue blood flow?
causes vasoconstriction & water/salt retention
How does bradykinin affect tissue blood flow?
causes vasodilation & increased capillary permeability
How does histamine affect tissue blood flow?
vasodilation & increased capillary permeability
What cells release histamine?
mast cells & basophils
where are mast cell located?
tissue
where are basophils located?
blood
How bradykinin activated?
1) lysis/inflammation –> kallikrein activation
2) kallikrein: a2-globulin –>kallidin
3) kallidin –> bradykinin
How is bradykinin inactivated?
carboxypeptidase or ACE
What are the two theories for local control of tissue blood flow?
1) vasodilator
2) nutrient/o2-lacking theory
