Q

Myogenic Hypothesis of Pressure

A
↑ P ->
↑ stretch ->
opens stretch-activated Ca2+ ->
↑ Ca2+ ->
contracts vessels ->
↓ flow

Opposite occurs w/ ↓ P

Q

Normal cerebral perfusion pressure = ?

A

map - Intracranial Venous Pressure

(U) ~ 85 mmHg

20
Q

A

Response to ↑ ICP:

symp NS causes widespread vasoconstriction ->
↑ systemic arterial pressure

21
Q

Primary method for ↑ flow in brain?

A

metabolic: ↑ CO2 and H+

22
Q

Symp innerv of brain vasculature:
receptors
action

A

α1 receptors

vasoconstriction

23
Q

Parasymp innerv of brain:
neurotransmitter
action

A

ACh

vasodilation

24
Q

Cerebral blood flow regulation highly dependent on?

A

mental activity,

is highly localized

25
Q

Range of mean arterial pressure in renal circulation

A

80 - 170 mmHg

26
Q

Renal circulation autoregulates how?

A

↑ renal artery P ->

1) myogenic vasoconstr of afferent (supply organ) arterioles

2) ↑ glomerular filtration rate ->
↑ water delivery ->
↑ release of vasoconstrictors

27
Q

29
Q

Anterior hypothalamus generates heat how?

A

↑ metabolic rate
shivering
vasoconstrict skin bv (↑ SNS tone)

30
Q

Anterior hypothalamus dissipates heat how?

A

↓ SNS tone to skin bv
vasodial skin bv (↑ BF)
shunt blood to skin surface

1) coronary
2) cerebral
3) exercising skeletal mm
4) pulmonary
5) renal

42
Q

Sympathetic control is most important for what circulations?

A

1) resting skeletal mm

2) skin

43
Q

Vasoactive metabolites in coronary circulation?

A

hypoxia

adenosine

44
Q

Vasoactive metabolites in cerebral circulation?

A

CO2

H+

45
Q

Vasoactive metabolites in skeletal mm circulation?

A

lactate
K+
adenosine

46
Q

Vasoactive metabolites in pulmonary circulation?

A

hypoxia

47
Q

Metabolic hypothesis states?

A

If O2 delivery to tissue cannot keep up with consumption, metabolic by-products accumulate.

Metabolic by-products induce smooth muscle relaxation and enhance flow.
