Term
role
Definition
-promotes adjustments during stress/exercise
Term
a1
Definition
-Gq coupled
-mydriasis
-vasoconstriction
-prostate constriction
Term
*a2
Definition
-*Gi coupled, many *autoreceptors
-decrease SNS outflow
-decrease aqueous humor
Term
B1
Definition
-Gs coupled
-*increase HR ionotropy(contractility)
-*increase renin (inc BP)
-inc. aqueous humor
Term
effects of NE and Epi depend on
Definition
which receptor predominates
Term
*Epi
Definition
-bronchodilation
-COMPT substrate
-inc HR/BG
-muscle contraction and efficiency
-fatty acid release
-mental alertness
-ACTH and TSH
-glycogenolysis
Term
adrenergic response determined by
Definition
-potency of ligand at R
-proportion and density of Rs on tissue
-reflex adjustments
Term
*synthesis of catecholamines
Definition
-from Tyrosine
-*Tyr hydrolase is rate limiting
-DBH localization determines whether NE or Epi released into synapse
Term
*catecholamine degradation
Definition
-MAO is presynaptic
-COMPT is postsynaptic
-NOT responsible for terminating response
-exogenously administered catacholamines are substrates for COMPT
Term
*uptake 1 (NET)
Definition
primary means for terminating response
Term
if NE does not get back into vesicles
Definition
broken down by MAO
Term
catecholamine cycle
Definition
-Tyr enters
-dopamine,NE,serotonin transported into vesicle by VMAT
-DBH (membrane bound enzyme)
-synaptic NE is brought back into neuron by NET
-activation of a2 receptor inhibits subsequent release of NE
Term
B2
Definition
-Gs
-bronchodilation
-inc BG
-vasodilation
Term
both the SNS and PSNS are continuously
Definition
-active (have tone)
Term
ejaculation
Definition
SNS
Term
PSNS
Definition
erection
