III, VII, IX, and X
Sacral nerves 2, 3, and 4
SNS and PNS effects on heart?
increases everything
decreases everything
SNS and PNS effects on bronchial smooth muscle
Relaxation
Contraction
SNS and PNS effects on GI Tract
Decreases motility/sphincter contraction
increased motility/sphincter relaxation
SNS and PNS effects on gallbladder
relaxation
contraction
SNS and PNS effects on urinary bladder
muscle relaxation/sphincter contraction
muscle contraction/sphincter relaxation
SNS and PNS effects on the eye
Mydriasis (dilation)
Miosis (contraction)
SNS and PNS effects on the liver
Glycogenolysis/Gluconeogenesis
Glycogen synthesis
SNS and PNS effects on the pancreas
decrease Beta cell secretion
no effect
SNS and PNS effects on the salivary glands
increased secretion
marked increase secretion
SNS and PNS effects on the sweat glands
Both increase
PNS stimulation of arterioles
relaxation
SNS stimulation of what causes relaxation, and where?
Beta cells in coronary and skeletal muscle arterioles
Movement of receptors from the cell surface to intracellular compartments?
sequestration (occurs slowly)
Movement of receptors from the cell surface to intracellular compartments, but then destroyed.
downregulation (prolonged process)
Inability of the receptor to bind G protein (alter the function of the receptor)?
Receptor Uncoupling (occurs rapidly)
uncontrolled release of catecholamines due to an adrenal gland tumor. Constant SNS stimulation
Pheochromocytoma
how is the release of epi and norepi triggered?
triggered by Ach at cholinergic fibers due to calcium ion influx
Type of tertiary amines? what drug? how does it differ?
Physostigmine, an anticholinesterase drug
more lipophilic can get into CNS causing complications
Type of Quaternary ammoniums? what drug? how does it differ?
Edrophonium
Neostigmine
Pyridostigmine
anticholinesterases
more hydrophillic
goal of anticholinesterase drugs? how does it work?
increase amount of ACH to bully off NDNMBs (competative antagonism)
enzyme inhibition (acetylcholinesterase) by presynaptic and post-synaptic/direct effects
