What are all the systems that nerve agents can affect?
Nerve agents affect the transmission of nerve impulses in your nervous system. Nerve agents can affect the central nervous system, the respiratory system as well as cholinergic nervous system.
What are cholinergic stimulants?
they stimulate the action of ACh at post ganglionic muscarinic receptors.
What has the author A G Karczmar written?
A. G. Karczmar has written: 'Exploring the vertebrate cholinergic nervous system' -- subject(s): Cholinergic mechanisms, Vertebrates, Acetylcholine, Physiology 'Anticholinesterase agents' -- subject(s): Cholinesterase inhibitors
What are the side effects of cholinergic stimulants?
The adverse effects of cholinergic stimulants include mostly rash and digestive system complaints, including queasiness, loose stools, nausea, vomiting, abdominal cramps, muscle pain , increased salivation.
What are cholinergic nerves?
The parasympathetic nervous system, which uses acetylcholine almost exclusively to send its messages, is said to be almost entirely cholinergic. Neuromuscular junctions, preganglionic neurons of the sympathetic nervous system, the basal forebrain, and brain stem complexes are also cholinergic.
Medications that stimulate the actions of the parasympathetic nervous system are said to be?
Cholinergic drugs
What increases activity in the central nervous system?
stimulants
What operations do stimulants affect in the body?
they affect the nervous system.
What type of drug are amphetamines?
Amphetamines are stimulants of the central nervous system and sympathetic division of the peripheral nervous system.
What is cholinergic and anticholinergic?
Pharmacology is the study of drugs and their actions on the body. "Cholinergic" and "anticholinergic" are terms that refer to drugs that play a huge role in the part of the nervous system that regulates the "rest and digest" functions of the body. This part of the nervous system is the parasympathetic nervous system and the major transmitter that it uses is called acetylcholine, from whence the term "cholinergic" derives. A drug that binds and activates the acetylcholine receptor is called cholinergic, whereas a drug that blocks this receptor or blocks its downstream actions is called anticholinergic. A major nerve of the parasympathetic nervous system is the vagus nerve, the tenth cranial nerve (CN X). For this reason, cholinergic and anticholinergic drugs are commonly called vagomimetic (mimics the vagus nerve) and vagolytic (blocks vagus nerve activity), respectively. Cholinergic and anticholinergic pharmacology involves the drugs that work on the parasympathetic nervous system. These drugs are numerous and can treat a variety of diseases, from glaucoma to Alzheimer disease.
Which division of the autonomic nervous system secretes acetylcholine via cholinergic nerve fibers?
The parasympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system secretes acetylcholine via cholinergic nerve fibers. This neurotransmitter is essential for transmitting signals between nerves and muscles, helping mediate various bodily functions such as digestion, heart rate regulation, and relaxation.
Do Stimulants are designed to stimulate the central nervous system?
They may not have been designed to do so, but they do stimulate the central nervous system.
