Q

What occurs when there are multiple receptor sites at a single synpase during polarized conditions?

A

Presynaptic M2 receptors have a high affinity for Ach and occupied receptors are linked to synaptic vesicles to reduce exocytosis. Postaynaptic nicotinic receptors are unoccupied and closed

Q

What occurs when there are multiple receptor sites at a single synapse during depolarized conditions?

A

Presynaptic M2 receptors have a low affinity for Ach. Ach dissociates from vesicles. VOltage-gated Ca2+ channels open and allow vesicle fusion & exocytosis

Q

What occurs when there are multiple receptor sites at a single synapse during repolariztion?

A

Presynaptic M2 receptors and postsynaptic nicotinic receptors have high affinity for Ach. Occupied presynaptic receptors are linked to vesicles to reduce exocyotsis

17
Q

A

Increase

18
Q

What is the effect of Beta1 on heart contractility?

A

Increase

19
Q

What is the effect of Beta2 on bronchi?

A

Dilate

20
Q

What receptor does Atenolol act on?

A

Beta1 blocker

21
Q

What receptor does Propanolol act on?

A

Beta1 agonist, Beta2 blocker

22
Q

What receptor does prazosin act on?

A

Alpha1 blocker

23
Q

What receptor does phenylephrine act on?

A

Alpha1 agonist

24
Q

What receptor does Dobutamine act on?

A

Beta1 agonist

25
Q

What receptor does Albuterol act on?

A

beta2 agonist

26
Q

What receptor does norepinephrine act on?

A

Alpha1, Alpha2, Beta1 agonist

27
Q

How to association constant?

A

Kd = Koff / Kon

28
Q

How to calclate affinity?

A
