Q

what receptor or signaling pathway is linked most directly to A2 adrenoreceptor stimulation?

A

G1 and the reduction of cAMP

  • inhibition of adenylyl cyclase through G1 result ing to from stimulation of a2-adrenergic receptor leads to reduction of intracellular cAMP.

Q

what tissue of organ has many muscarinic receptors but lacks innervation to those receptors?

A

blood vessels

*circulating muscarinic cholinergic receptor agonist stimulate these receptors on endothelial cells,leading to release of nitric oxide and vasodilation
