Study Notes
The Nervous System
- The nervous system is made up of the brain, spinal cord, sensory nerves, and sense organs.
- The brain and spinal cord work together as the central nervous system (CNS) and control the body's functions.
- Nerves connect the CNS to the rest of the body.
The Peripheral Nervous System (PNS)
- The PNS transmits information to the CNS and controls organ function through efferent and afferent nerves.
- Acetylcholine (Ach) is the neurotransmitter used in the PNS.
- Ach can act on two types of receptors: nicotinic (R(N)) and muscarinic (R(M)).
Muscarinic Receptors
- There are five types of muscarinic receptors (M1-M5).
- M1 receptors (neural) are found in the CNS, gastric parietal cells, and mediate an excitatory effect, which increases acid secretion.
- M2 receptors (cardiac) are present in the heart, and have an inhibitory effect that causes bradycardia (slow heart rate).
- M3 receptors (glandular) are found in the smooth muscle of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT).
Experiment Goals
- The experiment aimed to show the stimulant effect of cholinergic drugs on glandular secretion.
- The experiment also aimed to demonstrate the effects of atropine on chromodacryorrhea (tear secretion) caused by direct-acting cholinergic agonists.
- Chromodacryorrhea appears to be linked to muscarinic receptors.
