Reminder: Subtypes of Adrenergic Receptors a: EPI > NOR >>ISO ß: ISO > EPI > NE a1: contraction of smooth muscle (incl. VSM) a2: presynaptic receptors ( decrease NE release) ß1: in heart and juxtaglomerular cells (and some fat cells) ß2: relaxation of smooth muscle ß3: some fat cells NOTE ON ß2: (1) mediate relaxation of skeletal muscle vasculature (2) P’cologically administered NE is not effective
The Ugly Truth About Epinephrine EPINEPHRINE: MORE POTENT AT ß2 THAN AT a1 Therefore: you would predict that low doses of EPI preferentially activate ß2 receptors over a1 receptors Low doses of EPI: preferentially activate ß2 receptors in skeletal muscle vasculature: cause vasodilation, leading to a decrease in total peripheral resistance (TPR) High doses of EPI: activate both ß2 and a1 receptors: a1 response predominates, resulting in vasoconstriction, which causes an increase in total peripheral resistance (TPR)

DOPAMINE D1 > ß > a1 Can activate: (1) vasodilatory dopamine (D1) receptors in renal, mesenteric, and coronary vascular beds (2) beta receptors in heart (greater effect on contractile force that rate) (3) stimulates NE release from nerve terminals (contributes to cardiac effects) (4) high doses can activate vascular a1 receptors

“ß1- Adrenergic Agonists” Dobutamine One isomer is ß1 agonist and a1 agonist Other isomer is ß1 agonist (and apparently weak a1 antagonist) Increases contractile force, little effect on heart rate or TPR Used to increase cardiac output (e.g., CHF) Why does dobutamine have little effect on HR and TPR? 1. Human atria: 40- 50% ß1; human ventricle: 70- 85%ß1 2. Little or no ß2- mediated vasodilation, so no reflex tachycardia 3. a1 agonist activity may also contribute to direct stimulation of ventricles and lack of vasodilation
