---|---|---|---|---|---|
Agonist | show 🗑
|
||||
show | Direct - noradrenaline, adrenaline, isoprenaline - act directly on receptor
Indirect - tyramine, ephedrine and amphetamine - increase release of transmitter
Sympathetic denervation blocks their effects
🗑
|
||||
show | Same conc, same compound, same animal - can give different effects
Adrenaline increases BP in contracting vascular smooth muscle
Adrenaline and ergot decreases BP by relaxing smooth muscle
🗑
|
||||
Potency order - Ahlquist | show 🗑
|
||||
show | Heart - alpha 1
Blood vessels - Alpha 1 and 2 and Beta 2
Bronchi - Alpha 1 and Beta 2
GIT - Alpha 1 and Beta 1
Liver - Alpha 1 and Beta 2
Eye - Alpha 1
Skeletal muscle - Beta 2 and 3
Adipose tissue - Beta 3
🗑
|
||||
show | Isoprenaline binds solely to beta receptors
Causes a decrease in resistance due to vasodilation
Increase in heart rate due to baroreceptor reflex
Overall decrease in BP
🗑
|
||||
Non-selective adrenoreceptor agonists | show 🗑
|
||||
Selective alpha 1 agonists | show 🗑
|
||||
show | Clonidine - anti hypertensive, central and peripheral actions
Xylazine - sedative effects via CNS
Presynaptic to decrease transmitter release, platelet aggregation, vasoconstriction
🗑
|
||||
Selective beta 1 agonists | show 🗑
|
||||
Selective beta 2 agonists | show 🗑
|
||||
show | First discovered were ergot alkaloids by Dale - ergot poisoning
Includes histamine, ACh, tyramine
Derivatives of lysergic acid - ergotamine and ergometrine
Partial alpha agonist as well as antagonist - stimulate then block
🗑
|
||||
show | Phentolamine - non-selective, associated with raised heart rate as it blocks alpha 2 feedback
Prazosin - selective alpha 1 used as an antihypertensive
Phenoxybenzamine - irreversible non-selective used to prevent swings in BP and heart rate in surgery
🗑
|
||||
show | Postural Hypotension
Blocking alpha receptors removes the reflex that prevents blood pooling in the legs
🗑
|
||||
Beta antagonists | show 🗑

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
To hide a column, click on the column name.
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
