tranlecture1 Flashcards
what are two outflows in the parasympathetic division
cranial and sacral
what is the outflows of the sympathetic division
lumbar and thoracic
tell me about the length of the nerves in the parasympathetic division
long pre synaptic short post synaptic neurons
tell me about the enteric division
receives input from both sympathetic and parasympathetic division but can function on its own, controls motility of the gut
what are the two plexus of the enteric division and what do they control
myentreric controls motility, and submucosal plexus controls ion and fluid transport.
tell me about dual innervation and how it works.
both sympathetic and parasympathetic system innervate most organs but they are not directly antagonist to each other they have different sites of activation or inhibition.
what are the exception of dual innervation
only sympathetic hair follicles, thermoregulatory seat gland, liver adrenal glands, and kidney, and two systems producing similar rather than opposing effects in the salivary glands. Sympathetic still produces saliva but constrics the vessels for delivery.
what do all preganglionic fibers use what and have what kind of receptors
acetyl choline nicotinic receptors
what type of neurotransmitter is used for post ganglionic neurons
neuropanephrine usually for sympatheitcs acetyl choline for parasympatehics
what is the homotropic interactions
feed back mechanism that has receptors for what its sending out to slow down the release of neurotransmitters
what is heterotropic interactions
when you have a receptor for the neurotransmitter of the other system that will inhibit the release of its own neurotransmitter giving you an opposing effect.
what is withdrawal rebound hyperactivity/ disuse hyperactivity
when you don’t use a system it will increase the number of receptors to compensate so a normal dose will overstimulate the system.
what is co-transmission
when a neuron will release more than one transmitter or modulator each of which will interact with specific receptors and produce different effects.
what are the target steps for pharmacologic therapy
synthesis, storage, release, receptor effects, termination of action.
what is the most common site for target in therapy
the receptor is the most common site.
