Neurotransmitters Pharm Pearl: The peripheral nervous system (PNS) employs 3 neurotransmitters • Acetylcholine • Norepinephrine • Epinephrine Any given junction in the PNS uses only ONE of these substances 2 Transmitter Recap Acetycholine – employed at most junctions of the PNS • All preganglion neurons of PNS • All preganglion neurons of the SNS • All postganglionic neurons of PNS • All motor neurons to skeletal muscles • Most postganglionic neurons of the SNS that go to sweat glands 3 Transmitter Recap Norepinephrine – released by practically all postganglionic neurons of the SNS (exception – sweat glands) Epinephrine – major neurotransmitter released by the adrenal medulla. The adrenal medulla also releases some norepinephrine. 4 Adrenergic Agonists * Produce their effects by activating adrenergic receptors * Sympathomimetic * Broad spectrum of applications • CHF • Asthma • Preterm labor Mechanisms of Adrenergic Receptor Activation * Direct receptor binding * Promotion of norepinephrine (NE) release * Inhibition of NE reuptake * Inhibition of NE inactivation Overview of Adrenergic Agonists * Therapeutic applications and adverse effects of adrenergic receptor activation * Properties of representative adrenergic agonists * Discussion of adrenergic agonists in other chapters Overview of the Adrenergic Agonists Catecholamines Noncatecholamines • Cannot be used orally • Brief duration of action • Cannot cross the BBB (polar molecules) • Can be given orally • Metabolized slowly by MAO – longer half-life • More able to cross the BBB Mort & Merv: the story of selectivity Receptor specificity • Most drugs in chapter • Peripherally acting sympathomimetic • Direct receptor activation • Amphetamine, cocaine • Indirect acting sympathomimetic • Ephedrine • Direct receptor activation and promotion of NE release Receptor Specificity Terbutaline (Bricanyl) Isoproterenol (Isuprel) Epinephrine • Beta2 only •Beta1 and beta2 •Alpha1 and alpha2 •Beta1 and beta2 Therapeutic Applications Adrenergic Agonists Clinical applications of alpha1 Two responses for therapeutic use • Vasoconstriction (most common use) • • • • Blood vessels Skin Viscera Mucous membranes Mydriasis Therapeutic Applications and Adverse Effects of Adrenergic Receptor Activation * Drugs capable of activating alpha1 receptors • • • • • Epinephrine Norepinephrine (Levophed) Phenylephrine (Neosynephrine) Ephedrine Dopamine Therapeutic Applications and Adverse Effects of Adrenergic Receptor Activation Therapeutic applications of alpha1 activation * Hemostasis • Arrest bleeding via vasoconstriction * Nasal decongestion • Mucosal vasoconstriction * Adjunct to local anesthesia • Delays absorption of local anesthetic * Elevation of blood pressure • Vasoconstriction Mydriasis • Radial muscle of the iris Therapeutic Applications and Adverse Effects of Adrenergic Receptor Activation Adverse effects of alpha1 activation * Hypertension • Widespread vasoconstriction * Necrosis • Treatment with alpha1 blocking agent Bradycardia • Response to vasoconstriction and elevated BP Clinical Consequences of Alpha2 Activation * Alpha2 receptors in periphery • Located presynaptically • Regulate transmitter release • Activation inhibits NE release * Alpha2 in CNS • Reduction of sympathetic outflow to heart and blood vessels • Relief of severe pain Clinical Consequences of Beta1 Activation Therapeutic applications of beta1 activation * Cardiac arrest • Not preferred drug of choice * Heart failure • Positive inotropic effect * Shock • Positive inotropic effect;
