Where do you find M1, M2, and M3 receptors?
M1 - neurons
M2 - heart (inhibitory)
M3 - glands, smooth muscle, endothelium
M4 - CNS (inhibitory)
Rate limiting step in Ach syntehsis
Choline transport/uptake into the neuron
In symp neurons, the major method of termination is reuptake, what about for para?
It's acetylcholine esterase
Hemicholinium
inhibits transport of choline into neuron (rate limting step)
Vasamciol
blocks Ach storage (so it is broken down)
Botulinium toxin
injected form is least toxic and paralyzes muslce, prevents release of Ach
AChE inhibitors
major route of degradation for Ach, blocking this allows Ach to build up
What drug blocks the rate limiting step in the PNS and SNS release pathways?
PNS - hemicholonium (blocks choline uptake)
SNS - alpha-methyltyrosine (blocks tyrosine to L-dopa conversion)
What are the 2 major direct acting Cholinomimetic drugs?
Choline esters
Alkaloids (muscarine and nicotine)
What are the indirect acting cholinomimetic drugs?
neostigmine, physostigmine, edrophonium, insecticides, neurotoxins
4 Acetylocholine esters mentioned in class.
Acetycholine
Methacholine
Carbachol
Bethanechol
What cholinomimetic, Ach esters mentioned in class have no susceptibility to Cholinesterase?
Carbechol
Bethanechol
What choline ester drugs are selelctive muscarinic stimulators?
Methacholine and Bethanechol
What other class of direct acting cholinomimetics (besides choline esters) are there, and what are the drugs?
Alkaloids -
Muscarine, Pilocarpine for M receptors
NIcotine, and Lobeline for N
What alkaloid drugs are selective to muscarinic receptors only?
muscarine and pilocarpine
Bethanechol
M1, M3 agonist
Increases secretion, visceral smooth muscle contraction, decrease HR
Uses: postop and neurogenic ileus and urinary retention
Carbachol
cholinomimetic that is used exclusively for glaucoma
Direct acting muscarinic alkaloids or synthetics?
eg. pilocarpine, muscarine, Cevimeline (new drug)
- activates muscarinic recpetors
Uses: glaucoma (both open and narrow angle) by increasing outflow of aqueous humor. Zerostomia, Sjogren's syndrome
ASE of cholinomimetics
GI stress, sweating, bronchoconstriciton, CV depression
Contraindications: peptic ulcers, bronchial asthma, hyperthyroidism
Direct acting nicotinic agonist
eg. nicotine and lobeline
Enters CNS (highly lipophillic)
activates both PNS, SNS, and NMJ
Clinical use: smoking cessation
toxicities: increase GI activites, nausea, vomiting, increase BP and HR
Interactions:additive with CNS stimulants
Neostigmine
AchE inhibiitor
used for postop paralytic ileus and neurogenic bladder
Physostigmine
AchE inhibitor
Neostigmine
AchE inhiibtor used to treat myasthenia gravis, used to terminate curare-like drugs during surgery
Edrophonium
AchE inhibitor that is used to diagnose myasthenia gravis
Physostigmine
AchE inhibitor that is antidote for atropine overdose
AchE toxicities and ASE
muscarinic - bronchoconstriciton, miosis, excessive secretions, diarrhea
NIcotinic - tremors, skeletal muscle fasciculations, depolarization block of skeletal muscle
CNS: convulsions
What do you use to treat AchE inhibitor poisoning?
Pralidoxime (regenerate active AChE)
Atropine (cholinergic receptors antagnoist)
Pralidoxime
used to treat AchE inhibit poisoning,
Toxicities: muscle weakiness in overdose
Atropine
cholinergic receptor antagnoist
Manditory antidoe for severe AChE poisoning
toxicities: not much (see slide about atropine)
Non selective muscarinic receptor antagonist:
atropine (there is a ton of info on atropine on the slide ,just look at that, i'm sick of righting
Ipratropium
non-selelctive muscarinic receptor antagnoist - redcues or prevents bronchospasms in asthma
Scopolamine
Muscarinin recpetor antagonist - treates motion sickness
Toxicities: tachycardia
Dicyclomine
Used to treat irritable bowel syndrome, minor diarrhea. It's a muscarinic M1 antagnoist
Oxybutynin
muscarinin receptor antagonist
reduces detrusor smooth muscle tone and treates ure incontinence,
Toxic effects of atropine
"red as a beet, dry as a bone, blind as a bat, hot as a firestone, mad as a hatter"
increasing dose...:
1) dryness of mouth, increase HR
2) marked dryness of mouth, rapid hear rate, blurred vision
3) hot skin, pluss all the above
4) above plus ataxia, restlessness, excitement, delirium, coma
Trimethaphan
Nictonic receptor blocker used for hypertension emergency (ganglionic blocker)
Tubocurarine
produces msucle paralysis (during surgery) by blocking nictonici recpetors
Succinylcholine
Depolarizing NM blockers
