34
Q

describe the control of pupil diameter by the PNS and what happens if you block M3 receptors

A
  • cholinergic neurons innervate the circular muscles of the iris to cause constriction
  • blocking M3 receptors can’t get the same amount of constriction.
35
Q

What regulates the thickness of lens

A

ciliary muscles

36
Q

cholinergic neurons in eye cause

A

contraction of smooth muscles of the ciliary body to cause fattening of the lens and accommodate near sight.

37
Q

when ciliary muscles constrict, tension on the lens__

A

decreases

38
Q

depolarization of cholinergic nerve endings =

A

induced neurotransmitter release

  • Ca mediated
  • docking of vesicular and membrane proteins
  • VAMPS bind to SNAPs on membrane
  • Ca binding jams vesicles into membrane
39
Q

Ach in synaptic space binds receptors and is then degraded __

A

by acetylcholinesterase to choline and acetate and then can be recycled and resynthesized.

40
Q

First step in NT release is___ which opens

A

depolarization, which opens Na channels and Na moves in. depolarization is detected by voltage-dependent ion channels. Ca channels respond and open, let Ca into nerve ending. Ca facilitates docking of vesicle with membrane.

41
Q

choline is taken into the nerve terminal and__

A

conjugated to acetate by choline acetyltransferase to produce Ach.

42
Q

what inhibits choline acetyltransferase (ChAT)

A

hemichlonium-3

43
Q

synthesized Ach is transported into synaptic vesicles

A

and released upon depolarization of the nerve terminal.

44
Q

vesamicol inhibits

A

VAT, blocks Ach from entering vesicle

45
Q

botulinum toxin blocks

A

calcium from binding to VAMPs– so you don’t get Ach release into synaptic cleft.

46
Q

the sympathetic chain ganglion allows

A

simultaneous activation of multiple organ systems.

47
Q

pre ganglionic nerves of sympathetic that synapse in the chain ganglia are __ and release__

A

generally short and release Ach as the primary NT.

48
Q

sympathetic post-ganglionic nerves leave ___, are generally ____ and release

A

leave the chain ganglia to innervate specific effector organs. are generally longer than pre-ganglionic nerves. and release (-) norepi as the primary NT.

49
Q

sweat glands don’t follow standard sympathetic 2 neuron relay system:

A

they have a pre and post ganglionic cholinergic nerve, they are releasing Ach so they are activating muscarinic receptors that are on sweat glands, this is muscarinic receptors that are part of the sympathetic NS. The adrenal medulla- there is no post ganglionic nerve, this only gets pre ganglionic input, which means that Ach is activating this, it is a nicotinic receptor, this is a modified post ganglionic neuron, the adrenal medulla cells act as though they are a postganglionic neuron so when they are stimulated with Ach and the nicotinic receptors are activated then it releases epi.

50
Q

precursor AA tyrosine is converted to

A

dopamine which is taken into vesicles and converted to NE. NE is stored in the vesicles with ATP and neuropeptide Y and released during nerve terminal depolarization.

51
Q

synthesis of NE from tyrosine flow chart

A

tyrosine–> dopa–> dopamine–> NE

52
Q

Adrenals have ___ which converts

A

PNMT which converts norepi to epi.

53
Q

4 steps of released norepi

A
  1. interacts with specific adrenergic receptors to produce tissue/organ response.
  2. taken back into the nerve terminal by NET. blocked by cocaine, amitriptyline and nortriptyline. after uptake NE can be incorporated into vesicles or metabolized by MAO
  3. taken into post-synaptic tissue by EMT
  4. metabolized by MAO or catechol-O-methyltransferase to inactivate intermediates and finally to HVA and VMA
54
Q

regulation of adrenergic NT release

A

presynaptic receptors on sympathetic nerve terminals influence the release of norepi.

  1. alpha2–> adrenergic and muscarinic, M2 receptors decrease NE release
  2. beta2–> adrenergic, At1- angiotensin and nicotinic, N receptors increase NE release
