The Sympathetic system is also known as the"fight-or-flight response" and the Parasympathetic is referred to as the " Rest and digest" division.  ]]> 2023-02-16 13:43:09 UTC https://padlet.com/angeleosegueda2001/383f9ruvo97caf5y/wish/2484984231 #2 angeleosegueda2001 https://padlet.com/angeleosegueda2001/383f9ruvo97caf5y/wish/2484990726 Sympathetic Division's Neurotransmitters

  • Lateral gray column of the spinal cord 
Location for the Parasympathetic division's neurotransmitters 
  • Postganglionic neurons

  • Alpha and Beta receptors 
  • Alphas are located in smooth muscles 
  • Betas are located in cardiac and smooth muscles 
The receptors for the Parasympathetic division and their locations 
  • Muscarinic and Nicotinic receptors
  • Muscarinic receptors are located in the brain
  • Nicotinic receptors are located in the neuromuscular junctions

  • When the sympathetic division is activated
    • Heart- heart rate begins to speed up and pushes more blood around the body 
    • Lungs- bronchodilation occurs 
    • Eyes- pupils dilate and allows more light to enter the eyes
  • When the parasympathetic division is activated 
    • Heart- heart rate slows down and blood pressure begins to lower 
    • Lungs- bronchoconstriction occurs which slows down breathing 
    • Digestive tract- increases the rate of digestion 
    • Eyes- pupils constrict to limit the amount of light that enters the eyes

  • Cholinomimetics/Cholinesterase antagonists (Parasympathetic drugs) 
  • Anticholinergics (Parasympathetic drugs) 
  • Adrenoreceptor agonists/Sympathomimetics (Sympathetic drugs) 
  • Adrenoreceptor antagonists (Sympathetic drugs) 
Receptors Affected 
  • Cholinomimetics/Cholinesterase antagonists
    • They affect Acetylcholine receptors. 
      • The action of the drugs are to inhibit choline esterase and to protect acetylcholine from hydrolysis.
  • Anticholinergics
    • They affect Acetylcholine receptors. 
      • The action of the drugs are to block or decrease the amount of work acetylcholine has on the smooth muscle cells. 
  • Adrenoreceptor agonists/Sympathomimetics
    • They affect the alpha and beta receptors. 
      • The action of the drugs is to stimulate the beta and alpha receptors. 
  • Adrenoreceptor antagonists
    • They effect the alpha receptors. 
      • The action of the drug is the block the alpha-1 to help with hypertension.
