30
Q

What are homotrophic interactions? What is the type of receptor utilized here?

A

When the chemicals that a nerve secretes acts on itself to inhibit itself (usually).

Alpha 2

31
Q

What are heterotrophic interactions? What is the receptor utilized here?

A

When a neurotransmitter acts on a receptor other than the one that it was released from.

M2 or alpha 2

32
Q

Why does [ACh] go up in Parkinsons?

A

There is a decrease in dopamine, which means that ACh synapses are not inhibited

33
Q

What is denervation supersensitivity?

A

Just like it sounds, loss of a nerve results in hypersensitivity of the innervated organ to the neurotransmitter that is used to release

34
Q

What is one of the diagnostic tests for autonomic failure? What is the MOA for this?

A

Low-dose stimulators (this is d/t excess receptor production when neurotransmitters are low)

35
Q

What are the three possible causes of denervation hypersensitivity?

A
  1. Increased receptors
  2. Loss of transmitter removal mechanism
  3. Increased postjunctional response
