    Sympathetic Receptors and Their Responses: Nervous System

    Uploaded by

    julinka beyla yanson
    The document discusses the nervous system and its divisions. It focuses on the autonomic nervous system, which has two divisions - the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems. The sympathetic nervous system is activated during the fight or flight response and uses catecholamines like epinephrine and norepinephrine as neurotransmitters. Its receptors are divided into alpha, beta, and dopamine receptors. The parasympathetic nervous system acts in rest and digest functions using acetylcholine as a neurotransmitter. Drugs can mimic or block the effects of each system.

    SYMPATHETIC RECEPTORS AND THEIR RESPONSES

    NERVOUS SYSTEM

    OUTLINE - Whenever it is activated it triggers a fight or


    I Nervous System flight response.
    II Central Nervous System
    III Peripheral Nervous System PARASYMPATHETIC NERVOUS SYSTEM
    IV Autonomic Nervous System - Drugs under PNS are called
    A. Sympathetic NS parasympathomimetic or Cholinergics.
    B. Parasympathetic NS
    V Sympathetic NS Receptors
    SYMPATHETIC NERVOUS SYSTEM RECEPTORS
    A. Alpha
    B. Beta
    C. Dopamine DIVIDED INTO THREE:

    1) Alpha
    NERVOUS SYSTEM

    sensitive to epinephrine and
     Nervous system is your body's command
    center. Originating from your brain, it controls norepinephrine (more sensitive to
    your movements, thoughts and automatic Norepinephrine NE)
    responses to the world around you.  DIVIDED INTO TWO:

     It is divided into two;


    o CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM
    o PERIPHERAL NERVOUS SYSTEM

    CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM


    CNS – CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM

    Consists of two parts

     Brain  Alpha 1
     Spinal cord
     post synaptic
    PERIPHERAL NERVOUS SYSTEM  some location are in the liver, urinary
    bladder, eyes, and acts upon your blood
    PNS – PERIPHERAL NERVOUS SYSTEM
    vessel
    The peripheral nervous system is divided into two  generally, when you are in a fight or fight
    main parts: response, your CNS is stimulated

     Somatic - consists of afferent (sensory) and CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM SIMULATION


    efferent (motor) nerves
     Vasoconstriction (alpha1 acts upon blood vessel
     Autonomic - comprises two antagonistic sets
    of nerves, through this)
    a. Sympathetic nervous system  Mydriasis (in the eyes/pupillary dilation)
    b. Parasympathetic nervous systems.
     Urinary contraction (found in bladder; there is
    AUTONOMIC NERVOUS SYSTEM urinary retention)
     Sympathetic nervous system or SNS  Glycogenolysis (in liver)
    - Drugs under SNS are called
    sympathomimetics or adrenergics.

     Alpha 2 - Triggers the release of renin which has a part
    in regulating or increasing the blood pressure
     pre-synaptic
     has inhibitory effects (when there is too
     Beta 2
    much epinephrine, your alpha two
     Mainly seen in smooth muscles
    inhibits)
     Ex. Of a smooth muscle is the lungs
    CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM SIMULATION  Helps with smooth muscle relaxation
     Causes:
     Inhibit NE release  Bronchodilation – expansion of the
     Decrease level of insulin (since you need glucose)
    bronchial air passages
    NOTES:  Vasodilation – widening of blood
    vessels
    Sympathetic Nervous System (Fight)  Inhibits labor – helps with uterus
     neurotransmitter: catecholamines (Epinephrine, relaxation
    Norepinephrine, Dopamine)  Beta 3
    - Mainly seen in adipose tissues (fats)
    - Lipolysis (breakdown of fats)
    DRUGS THAT MIMIC SNS EFFECTS:

    a) Sympathomimetics or;
    3) Dopamine Receptors
    b) Adrenergics or; - Promotes dilation in:
    c) Adrenergic agonists  Renal system
     Mesenteric (GI)
    DRUGS THAT DOES THE OPPOSITE:  Cerebral/Cardiac/Coronary
    a) Sympatholytics or;

    b) Antiadrenergics or;

    c) Adrenergic antagonists/blockers

    “PROF’S PPT ON QUIPPER AND LECTURE”
     DRUGS THAT MIMIC PNS RESPONSES:

    a) Cholinergics or;

    b) Parasympathomimetics or;

    c) Cholinergic agonists

    DRUGS THAT DOES THE OPPOSITE:

    a) Anticholinergics or;

    b) Parasympatholytics or;

    c) Cholinergic antagonist/blockers

    2) Beta
     Beta 1
    - Mainly found in the heart
    - Increased contractility of the heart
    - Increased heart rate
    - Increased blood pressure
