|
Definition
where the pre (short) & post (long) ganglian neurons meet
2 types:
sympathetic chain: along spine
collateral ganglia: celiac, superior & inferior mesenteric |
|
|
Term
| sympathetic: neurotransmitters |
|
Definition
preganglionic release Acetylchonie ACH (cholingergic synapse)
-excitatory
postganglionic release Norepinephrine (adrenergic synapse)
-excitatory |

Term
| Sympathetic: Receptor types |
|
Definition
2 classes for NE:
(alpha)--constric peripheral blood vessels, close sphincters
(beta)--increase metab. rate, relax blood vessels & airway muscles
1-heart: increase HR, incr, contraction strength
2-bronchioles (open airways) |

again--> where pre(short) & post(long) ganglionic neurons meet
-peripheral ganglia in or near target organ
a)CN III, VII, IX, X (vegus): majority of body
b)Pelvic nerves: kidney, bladder, reprod organs, end of LG intestine |

Term
| parasympathetic: neurotransmitters |
|
Definition
| ACH released by pre (excitatory) ad post (excitatory or inhibitory) ggl neurons everywhere but post ggl in sympathetic |
|
|
Term
| Parasympathetic: Receptor Types |
|
Definition
2 types of ACH receptors:
-nicotinic (Excitatory) at synpase b/tw pre & post ggl neurons; also at neuromuscular jxns
-muscarinic (excitatory or inhibitory) at synapse btwn post ggl cell and effector |

Definition
a drug, medicine, chemical that acts the same as a bodies chemical
e.g. caffeine acts like NE because it speeds up heart rate |
