100

This receptor type is found on the cell bodies of postganglionic autonomic neurons.

Nicotinic muscarinic

100

This individual advanced knowledge of anatomy by studying gladiators in ancient Rome.

Who is Galen.

100

It is minimally invasive and provides an indirect whole body assesment of sympathetic activation. It is linked to outcomes.

Plasma NE

100

This term describes the fact that the parasympathetic control of the heart provides an inhibitory influence on the sympathetic control of the heart.

Accentuated antagonism

100

90% of cranial parasympathetic outflow travels via this nerve.

Vagus

200

When this receptor is stimulated it inhibits the relsease of NE from adrenergtic neurons.

Alpha 2

200

This molecule is cotransmitted from all autonomic neurons, and really neurons, in the body.

ATP

200

It is very invasive and provides an indirect assessment of regional NE release, reuptake and clearance in humans.

NE spillover

200

A postive _________ effect during exercise means the heart is relaxing faster than at rest.

Lusitrpoic

200

This specific molecule is stored within large granular vesicles within sympathetic adrenergic neuron endings.

Neuropeptide Y (NPY)

300

When this receptor is stimulated it promotes the relsease renin from the kidney.

Beta 1

300

Patient A has high cardiac output, patient B has low cardiac output. They have the same BP. BP would fall the greatest extent in this subject if both were administered a sympathetic ganglionic blocker

Patient B

300

It provides good information about parasympathetic, but not sympathetic, control of the heart. 

HR variability

300

This receptor is stimulated on adipose tissue to promote lipolysis during exercise.

Beta 3

300

This neuron has its cell body in the RVLM and its terminal endings within the laterl horns of the spinal grey matter.

Presympathetic neuron

400

When this receptor type is stimulated it produces dilation of the bronchioles.

Beta 2

400

This would happen to HR variability when a beta 1 receptor antagonist is administered to a patient.

No change

400

A direct sympathetic assessment requires that a recording of this is measured.

Electrical acitivity of a sympathetic nerve/neuron

400

In addtion to increasing sympathic activity within the RVLM, this is another key role played by angiotensin II during exericse. This other role promotes cardiac output redistribution.

Vasoconstriction

400

These contain the axons of postganlionic sympathetic neurons and is found at all levels of the sympathetic chains.

Gray raimi communicates

500

When this receptor type is stimulated it promotes vasoconstriction and cardiac output redistribution.

Alpha 1

500

This specific nucleus within the posterior hypothalamus is assocaited with control of the sympathetic nervous system.

Paraventricular nucleus

500

This hypothesis related to sympathetic heterogeneity describes the fact that the body can increase sympathetic acitvity to specific organs/regions in response to stress to minimize unwanted effects.

Tailored responder hypothesis

500

Which catecholamine is primarily involved in non-cardiovascular control during exercise?

Epinephrine

500

Cell bodies of this type of neuron are found in the intermediolateral cell column (IML).

Preganglionic sympatehtic neuron
