104
Q

varicosities

A

many axons of postganglionic neurons that make multiple points of contact.

105
Q

Cotransmission

A

can modulate responses in the autonomic nervous system (small and large vessicles for fast and slow firing rate) [depends on Ca]

106
Q

3 phases of contraction of vascular smooth muscle cell

A

phase 1 - ATP bind to P2X purinoceptor (depolarization) and a rapid Ca increase phase 2 - norepinephrine binds to an a1-receptor (Ga[q] cascade ip3 an DAG increase moderately fast calcium release) phase 3 - Y binds to Y1 receptor and causes a SLOW increase in Ca

107
Q

NO (2 phases)

A

phase 1 - mediated by NO and ACh, neuron releases NO and it diffuses through smooth muscle cell; ACh binds to M3 on endothelial cells leading to production of NO (eNOS) . NO activates guanylyl cyclase and raise [cGMP]i in the smooth muscle cell. (relaxation) phase 2 - tends to occur more with prolonged or intense stimulation, VIP binds to receptors on smooth muscle cell and causes a delayed relaxation through an increase in [cAMP]i or decrease in Ca2+.
