Question
Chapter 15.6, Problem 19WDL
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The possibility for the stimulation of adrenergic receptors to result in either vasodilation or vasoconstriction of the selected vessels of the blood.
Concept introduction:
There are cholinergic as well as adrenergic receptors. The signalling molecules like hormones or neurotransmitters are known as ligands as they get bound to the receptors. The ligands class, which bind to the receptors (adrenergic) in neurons is known as the monoamines or biogenic

Activation of α-adrenergic receptors in vascular smooth muscle stimulates (vasodilation or vasoconstriction). Give an example of an organ system where this occurs.
Activation of β2-adrenergic receptors in vascular smooth muscle stimulates vasodilation / vasoconstriction. Give an example of organs where this occurs.

Chemical messengers within cells are always the main determinant of the effector response. Dual innervation is always present in all organs and glands; one branch enhances the function or secretion, while the other branch inhibits it. The beating of the heart is regulated only by the sympathetic division. Some blood vessels contain alpha adrenergic receptors that cause vasoconstriction in the presence of epinephrine, whereas others have beta adrenergic receptors that cause vasodilation in the presence of epinephrine.arrow_forward
