Parasympathetic Nervous system
Fichas del conjunto (53)
- 1What part of the nervous system is the parasympathetic a subsection of ?Autonomic
- 2What is the role of the parasympathtic nervous system?Keep energy use low - rest and digest
- 3When the parasympathetic nervous system is activcated, describe the effect on BP, HR and GI activity?HR, BP are low and GI activity is high
- 4What is the typical effect of the PSN on many tissue and organs?inhibitory effect
- 5Where are the cell bodies of parasympathetic preganglionic nevres found?Cranial and sacral regions
- 6Name 4 nerves that exit the cranial region?Oculomotor, facial, glossopharyngeal and Vagus
- 7Name the sacral outflow?Forms the pelvic plexus - leads to intestine, bladder and uterus etc.
- 8Give the length of the PSN preganglionic neurones?Long - synapse in effector organs
- 9Give the length of the PSN post ganglionic neurones?Short and ganglia often in effector organ
- 10Give the Neurotransmitters in the at the Ganglionic synapse?ACh
- 11Give the neurotransmitter at the effector cell?ACh
- 12give the type of receptors in the ganglioic synapse?Nicotinic ACh receptors
- 13Give the type of receptor at the effector cell?Muscarinic ACh receptors
- 14Describe the action of ACh on nicotinic receptors?2 ACh bind per nicotinic receptor and threshold = AP
- 15Describe the action of ACh at muscarinic receptors?ACh binds to GPCR attached to second messenger to alter K+/Ca2+ or enzyme cascade
- 16Give the 2 point of Nicotinic receptor synapses?Ganglionic synapses and Somatic
- 17Give the 2 points of muscarinic receptor synpases?smooth muscle or glands
- 18Name subtype of the nicotinic receptors at the ganglia?Ionotropic ion channel receptors
- 19What is the response at nictinic ACh receptors synapses?depolarisation of postsynaptic membrane as Na+ channel open
- 20Name the 5 types of Muscarinic receptors on target tissues?M1,2,3,4,5
- 21What is the subtype of the muscarinic receptors at the target tissue?metabotropic - GPCR
- 22What occurs when M1 receptors recieve ACh?neuronal gut gastric acid secretion
- 23What occurs when M2 receptors receive ACh?Cardiac heart rate decreases
- 24What occurs when M3 receptors recieve ACh?Glandular secretion increases and smooth muscle constriction
- 25What occurs when M4 receptors recieve ACh?Neostriatum
- 26What occurs when M5 receptors recieve ACh?substania nigra
- 27Name 4 types of parasympathetic drugs?Parasympathomimetic, Parasympatholytic, cholinesterase inhibitors, ganglionic blocking drugs
- 28what type of drug is a parasympathomimetic drug?Cholinomimetic agonist
- 29Give 3 examples of parasympathomimetic drugs?Pilocarpine, muscarine and nicotine
- 30What effect do parasympathomimetic drugs have on PSN?Increased ( cholinergic agonists)
- 31what type of drug is a parasympatholytic drug?muscarinic antagonist
- 32Give an example of a parasympatholytic drug?Atropine
- 33What is the effect of parasympatholytic drugs on the PNS?Decreases ( muscarinic antagonist)
- 34Give an example of a cholinesterase inhibitor?Physostigmine
- 35What is the effect of choline inhibitors on the PNS?Increases ( increased ACh remains in system)
- 36what type of drug is a ganglionic blocking drug?Nicotinic anatagonist
- 37Give the effect of ganglionic blcoking drugs on the PNS and SNS?Decreases
- 38In PNS control of HR gove the general process?postganglionic nerves release ACh which acts on M2 receptors to decrease function
- 39Describe 3 target areas in the heart that are innervated by PNS?SAN - decreases HR
Atrial muscle -decrease force of contraction
AVN - decreased rate of conduction - 40What drug is used during caridiac arrest and why?Atropine (muscarinic Antagonist) so increases HR
- 41Describe effect of PNS on the pupil size of the eye?M3 muscarinic receptors receive ACh which causes circular muscle contraction = pupil constriction (MIOSIS)
- 42Give the effect of a drug that acts on the PNS of the eye?Muscarinic antagonist (atropine) blocks M3 receptors so no ACh binding = no contraction and therefore pupil dilation
- 43Name the other effect of PNS in the eye?Control of focussing
- 44Describe the effects of the PNS on ciliary muscle?ACh acts on M3 receptors and causes ciliary muscles to contract
- 45Give effect on ciliary muscles contracting?suspensory ligaments, lens fattens and so focus for near vision = ACCOMODATION
- 46What is it called when ciliary muscles get paralysed?Cycloplegia = loss of accomodation
- 47What are mydriatic drugs?Cause pupil dilation eg muscarinic antagonists and loss of accomodation
OPPOSE PNS - 48Name 2 types of miotic drugs?Muscarinic agonists and anticholinesterases
- 49Give the effect of muscarinic agonists?Constricts pupil causing Miosis
- 50Give the effect of anticholinesterases?enhancement of parasympathetic stimulation - MIOSIS and accommodation (contraction of ciliary muscle
- 51What is VIP?Vasoactive intestinal polypeptide
- 52What happens when low stimulation of ?ACh release
- 53What happens at high stim ulation?ACh and VIP released
