Term
ACH
Definition
Receptor Type: Cholinergic - Nicotinic

Major Locations: All ganglionic neurons, adrenal medullary cells, neuromuscular junctions of skeletal muscle

Effect of binding: Excitation/Stimulation
Term
ACH
Definition
Receptor Type: Cholinergic - Muscarinic

Major locations: All parasympathetic target organs

Effect of binding: Excitation/stimulation
Term
NE - Beta 1
Definition
Receptor type: Adrenergic - B1
Major location: Heart
Effect of binding: Stimuation
Term
NE - Beta 2
Definition
Receptor Type: Adrenergic - Beta 2

Major Locations: Lungs, blood vessels

Effect of binding: Inhibitory (dilates blood vessels and bronchioles)
Term
NE - Beta 3
Definition
Receptor Type: Adrenergic - Beta 3
Major Locations: Adipose tissue
Effect of binding: Simulates
Term
NE - Alpha1
Definition
Receptor Type: Adrenergic - Alpha 1

Major Locations: Blood Vessels (sympathetic target organs except heart)

Effect of binding: Simulates (constricts blood vessels and visceral sphincters, dilates pupils.
Term
NE - Alpha 2
Definition
Receptor Type: Adrenergic - Alpha 2

Major Locations: Membrane of adrenergic axon terminals

Effect of Binding: Inhibits release of NE from adrenergic terminals, inhibits insulin, promotes clotting.
Term
Eye
Definition
Parasympathetic: constricts pupil and bulges lens for close vision

Sympathetic: dilates pupil and flattens lens for far vision
Term
Glands (nasal, lacrimal, gastric, pancreas)
Definition
Parasympathetic: Stimulates secretions

Sympathetic: inhibits secretion, vasoconstricts blood vessels supplying glands
Term
Salivary glands
Definition
Parasympathetic: stimulates secretion of watery saliva

Sympathetic: stimulates secretion of thick, viscous saliva
Term
Sweat glands
Definition
Parasympathetic: No effect
Sympathetic: stimulates sweating
Term
Adrenal Medulla
Definition
Parasympathetic: No effect

Sympathetic: Stimulates medulla cells to secrete NE or epinephrine.
Term
Arrector Pili
Definition
Parasympathetic: No effect

Sympathetic: stimulates contraction
Term
Heart
Definition
Parasympathetic: decreases rate

Sympathetic: Increases rate and force of beat
Term
Urinary bladder
Definition
Parasympathetic: contraction of smooth muscle of bladder

Sympathetic: Casuses relaxation of smooth muscle of bladder
Term
Lungs
Definition
Parasympathetic: constricts bronchioles

Sympathetic: dilates bronchioles
Term
Gallbladder
Definition
Parasympathetic: Excites (constricts to expel bile)

Sympathetic: inhibits (relaxes)
Term
Liver
Definition
Parasympathetic: Increase glucose uptake from blood

Sympathetic: Stimulates release of glucose to blood
Term
Kidney
Definition
Parasympathetic: No effect

Sympathetic: Promotes renin release,
Term
Penis/Vagina
Definition
Parasympathetic: erection

Sympathetic: ejaculation/contraction
Term
Bood vessels
Definition
Parasympathetic: no effect

Sympathetic: constriction
Term
Blood coagulation
Definition
Parasympathetic: no effect

Sympathetic: increases coagulation
Term
Cellular metabolism
Definition
Parasympathetic: no effect

Sympathetic: increases metabolic rate
Term
Adipose Tissue
Definition
Parasympathetic: no effect
Sympathetic: stimulates fate breakdown
Term
Nicotinic agents (Nicotine)
Definition
Nicotinic receptors on all ganglionic neurons, stimulates sympathetic effect
Term
Parasympathomimetic agents
Definition
Mimics effect of ACH, enhances parasympathetic effect.
Pilocarpine, glaucoma
Term
ACH inhibitors
Definition
bind to the enzyme ACHe that degrades ACH prolonging the effect of ACH.
Neostigmine, Sarin
Term
Sympathomimetic agents
Definition
adrenergic receptors, enhances sympathetic activity by increasing NE release or binding to adrenergic receptors.
Albuterol, ashtma
Term
Symphatholytic agents
Definition
Adrenergic receptors, decrease sympathetic activity by blocking adrenergic receptors or inhibiting NE release
Propranolol, hypertension.
Beta blockers, decreasing heart rate and blood pressure
