ANS Review

S1B2

NameFeature
Neurotransmitters of PNS Acetylcholine (Ach)
Neurotransmitters of SNS Acetylcholine for pre and Norepinephrine (NE) for post
Discharge pattern of PNS DISCRETE 1 preganglionic to 1 postganglionic
Discharge pattern of SNS DIFFUSE 1 preganglionic to many postganglionic
ANS Receptors Cholinergic: Muscarinic, Nicotinic and Adrenergic: Alpha, Beta
Muscarinic Cholinergic Receptors M1 CNS, ANS ganglia
Muscarinic Cholinergic Receptors M2 Heart
Muscarinic Cholinergic Receptors M3 Smooth muscle, gland
Muscarinic Cholinergic Receptors M4 and M5 CNS
Nicotinic Cholinergic Receptors Nn CNS, ANS ganglia
Nicotinic Cholinergic Receptors Nm Skeletal muscle
Adrenergic Receptors in SNS Alpha and Beta
Adenyl cyclase Increase protein phosphorylation
Ca2+ dependent exocytosis Action potential --> depolarization --> Ca enables fusion of storage granule proteins with nerve terminal membrane followed by neurotransmitter release into synapse
Autoreceptors Respond neurotransmitter released from its nerve terminal; usu inhibits release of transmitter
Heteroreceptors Respond to transmitters released from other nerve terminals from nearby tissue or blood
Decrease ACH release from PNS M2, M4 presynaptic receptors from PNS and alpha2A and 2C receptors stimulated by NE from SNS
Increase ACH release from spinal nerve Nn receptors stimulated by ACH released from spinal nerves to skeletal muscle --> prolongs NMJ function during prolonged high-frequency contraction of skeletal muscle
Increase flow of oxygenated blood Beta 1 (dilation), Beta 2 --> positive chronotropic (rate) and inotropic (force of contraction) and alpha 1 (shunt blood to skeletal muscle)
Alpha 1 Contract Spleen --> Increase RBC in blood
Increase skeletal muscle contractibility Beta 2 increases rate and force of contraction
Increase/maintain blood glucose alpha 2 decreases insulin secretion and Beta 2 increase glucagon secretion
increase platelet aggregation Alpha 2
Contract radial muscle of iris --> mydriasis Alpha 1
Relax ciliary muscle for far vision Beta 2
Increase sweat glands Alpha 1 and M3
Distant vision accomodation --> relax --> flat SNS
Near vision accomodation --> contract --> thicker PNS
Parasympathomimetic direct muscarinic receptor agonists
Parasympathomimetic indirect inhibit ACHE
Parasympatholytic direct Receptor antagonists
Parasympatholytic indirect Decrease ACH release
Ganglionic blockers Hypertensive emergency
Cycloplegia Loss of accomodation d/t antimuscarinic drugs (atropine)
Parasympathomimetic Amines Treatment of Glaucoma: Open angle --> primary = abnormal trabecular network; MOA: contraction which opens trabecular network, pb = reduce accomodation; close angle: medical emergency, lens position blocks access to aqueous humor
Pilocarpine pure muscarinic agonist, med of choice for open-angle glaucoma
Cevimeline Xerostomia d/t radiation or Sjorgen's syndrome
Bethenechol Relatively specific for M3 receptors of GI and GU, for GERD and post-op urinary retention, pb with circulatory collapse and cardiac arrest
Indirect ACting Parasympathomimetic Drugs (Neostigme and Prostigmin= reversible) Broader clinical use than muscarinic agonists --> urinary retention (contract bladder wall and relax internal sphincter), paralytic ileus, open-angle glaucoma, myasthenia gravis
Myasthenia gravis Skeletal muscle weakness d/t decreased number pf nicotinic receptors at neuromuscular jxn, ACHE inhibitors increase the amount of ACH to stimulate available nicotinc receptors
Organophosphates (irreversible ACHE inhibitors)--> Echothiophate, diazinon phosphorylated ACHE enz extremely stable, good absorption across body membranes,
Diazinon, Malathion, Malaoxon, Parathion insecticides
Echothiophate Open Angle Glaucoma
Pralidoxime Regenerates ACHR, breaks ACHE-organophosphate boned --> Tx of nicotinic effects; rapid injection: laryngospasm, muscle rigidity and weakness
Atropine Tx of muscarinic effects: blocks muscarinic receptors, IV for 5-15 min to dry bronchial secretions, ? efficacy to treat CNS toxicity
Benzodiazepines Tx of seizure
Atropine (Parasympatholythic muscarinic receptor antigonist) Adjunct to general anesthesia (prevent vagal reflex and reduce bronchial secretion), Myocardial infarction (prevent reflex bradycardia and AV Block) and Mushroom poisoning
Parasympatholythic muscarinic receptor antigonist --> Tolerodyne, Oxybutynin, Detrol, Ditropan Urinary Incontinence
Botulinum Toxin (botox) --> antinicotinic decrease ACH release from spinal nerves into NMJ, temporary paralysis of skeletal muscle --> Comestic
NMJ blockers Non-Depolarization --> Curare and succinylcholine Adjunct to general anesthesia --> flaccid paralysis and reversible competitive blockage for crurare and persistent opening of nicotinic receptor channel for succinyl
Ambenonium Treat myasthenia gravis
Pyridostigmine Reverse NM blockage
Tacrine ACHE inhibitor, block neuronal K+ channels, prolong action potential --> increase ACH release; AE: rate limiting, liver tox., loose stools - Tx Alzheimer
Donepezil, Galantamine, Rivastigmine Selective inhibitor of CNA ACHE 1/day; AE less GI effects d/t little inhibition of pseudocholinesterase
Nemantine Dose-dependent blockade of glutamine receptors; reduces rate of clinical deterioration in Alzheimer
ACHE inhibitor longer duration of action edrophonium then neostigmine
ACHE inhibitor with longest duration of action Echothiophate
Miosis Contraction of circular ciliar body

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
