What are the systems of the Autonomic Nervous System?
Sympathetic (SNS)
Parasympathetic (PNS)
What are the functions of the Parasympathetic Nervous System?
Slow heart rate
increase gastric secretio
nempty bladder
empty bowel
Focus eye
constrict pupil
contract bronchial smooth muscle.
Function of Nicotinic
N
receptors when activated
Release of ACh and NE from postganglionic nerves to various organs.
Release of Epi from Adrenal Medulla.
Function of NicotinicM receptors when activated
Skeletal muscle contraction
Function of Muscarinic Receptors when activated
Eyes
: Pupilary contraction (miosis)
Heart
: Decrease HR
Lung
: Bronchial dilation, increase secretions
Bladder
: Contraction of SM on bladder wall and relaxation of sphincter ---> elimination
GI
: Increased salavation and gastric secretions
Increased intestinal motility/tone ---> defecation
Sweat Glands
: Increased sweating
Blood Vessels
: Vasodilation
Function of Alpha1 Receptors when activated
Eyes
: contraction of radial muscle in pupil ---> pupilary dilation (mydriasis)
Blood Vessels
: Vasoconstriction
Male Sex apparatus
: ejaculation
Urinary Bladder
: contraction of sphincter ---> decreased elimination.
Function of Alpha2 Receptors when activated
Nerve terminal feed back loops regulate the release of neurotransmitters like NE.
Various CNS functions.
Function of Beta1 Receptors when activated
Heart
: Increased HR and force of contraction
Kidney
: Release of renin ---> release of angiotensin ---> vasoconstriction ---> increased BP
Function of Beta2 Receptors when activated
Lungs
: Bronchial dilation
Uterus
: Relaxation of smooth muscle
Arterioles of Heart, Lung, and Skeletal Muscle
: Vasodilation
Liver
: Glycogenolysis ---> increased blood glucose
Skeletal Muscles
: Glycogenolysis ---> increased blood glucose
Enhanced contraction
Function of Dopamine receptors when activated
Kidney
: dilates renal blood vessels ---> increased kidney function.
CNS
: various functions
