What else can I help you with?
Are nerve fibers in ascending tracts myelinated?
If I was paying attention in med school, I think... The pre-ganglionic fibers are myelinated and the post-ganglionic are unmyelinated. This is in reference to the sympathetic and parasympathetic systems.
What is the fate of the neutotransmitter after its release from the vesicles in the presynaptic neuron?
Noradrenaline or nor-epinephrine released in post ganglionic sympathetic nerve endings is taken up back by the nerves producing it. While acetyl choline secreted by preganglionic nerves and post ganglionic parasympathetic fibres are destroyed by the enzyme acetylcholinesterase, in milliseconds.
Does sweat glands contain cholinergic receptors?
All the post-ganglionic parasympathatic reseptors are cholinergic (muscarinic) . and all the post-ganglionic sympaythatic reseptors are adrenergic . Except for sweat glands , Piloerecter muscles , and a few blood vessels they use sympathatic nerves but a cholinergic resepotrs . -Note that all the pre-ganglionic ( sympathatic and para sympathatic ) reseptors are cholinergic ( Nicotinic ). -Note that the sweat glands on the palms of the hand are adrenergic , but the rest of the sweat glands are cholinergic.
Does post ganglionic fibers release epinephrine?
No, postganglionic fibers release norepinephrine, not epinephrine. Epinephrine is released by the adrenal medulla.
What is the process by which neurotransmitters reenter terminal buttons and are repackaged for future use?
Reuptake - process by which neurotransmitters are taken back into the synaptic vesicles.
Which nerves release acetylcholine and adrenaline?
ALL pre- and post-ganglionic parasympathetic nerve cells PRE-ganglionic sympathetic nerve cells POST-ganglionic sympathetic nerve cells to sweat glands ONLY
Which division as short pre ganglionic axon and long post ganglionic axon?
sympathetic division
What is neurotransmitter of the sympathetic nervous system?
acytelcholine in pre-ganglionic neurons, norepinephrine in most post-ganglionic neurons.
Are nerve fibers in ascending tracts myelinated?
If I was paying attention in med school, I think... The pre-ganglionic fibers are myelinated and the post-ganglionic are unmyelinated. This is in reference to the sympathetic and parasympathetic systems.
Which release norepinephrine?
The answer is sympathetic post-ganglionic axon
What is m-cholinomimetics?
they stimulate the action of ACh at post ganglionic muscarinic receptors.
How come the stimulation of sweat secretion is carried out by sympathetic system by MUSCARINIC RECEPTORS as said in your table eventhough they are pararsympathetic cholinergic receptors?
All the post-ganglionic parasympathatic reseptors are cholinergic (muscarinic) . and all the post-ganglionic sympaythatic reseptors are adrenergic . Except for sweat glands , Piloerecter muscles , and a few blood vessels they use sympathatic nerves but a cholinergic resepotrs . -Note that all the pre-ganglionic ( sympathatic and para sympathatic ) reseptors are cholinergic ( Nicotinic ). -Note that the sweat glands on the palms of the hand are adrenergic , but the rest of the sweat glands are cholinergic.
Do the post-ganglionic sympathetic fibers release acetylcholine?
No, post-ganglionic sympathetic fibers mostly release norepinephrine. But they do release some ACh to the sweat glands, which causes concurrent vasodilation of surrounding blood vessels (paired with release of bradykinin from sweat glands).
Which neuro transmitter released from ganglionic of the parasympathetic division?
Nor-adrenaline is secreted at post ganglionic sympathetic synapses. There is re-uptake of Nor-adrenaline by nerve ending and only partially destroyed there by the enzyme C.O.M.T. There is no enzyme like acetylcholinesterase present there as in post ganglionic parasympathetic synapse to destroy the acetylcholine.
What is the fate of the neutotransmitter after its release from the vesicles in the presynaptic neuron?
Noradrenaline or nor-epinephrine released in post ganglionic sympathetic nerve endings is taken up back by the nerves producing it. While acetyl choline secreted by preganglionic nerves and post ganglionic parasympathetic fibres are destroyed by the enzyme acetylcholinesterase, in milliseconds.
