results in a decrease in cardiac output. Chronic hypertension (CH) is a constantly elevated blood pressure. Peripheral vascular disease (PVD) causes a restriction in blood circulation due to atherosclerosis‚ fatty deposits on the inner linings of the arteries that cause a blockage of blood flow; arteriosclerosis‚ loss of elasticity in the arteries themselves; or both. Restricted peripheral blood flow causes an increase in blood pressure because the heart would have to pump with more force to maintain

is (S)-4-[1-(2‚3-dimethylphenyl)ethyl]-3H-imidazole. ALPHA – 2 ADRENORECEPTOR The primary sympathetic neurotransmitter nor-adrenaline and adrenaline exert their central and peripheral actions through specialised receptors called adrenergic receptors. Adrenergic receptors are present in nearly all the peripheral tissues and in the central nervous system neurons. Three types of adrenergic receptors are present – alpha 1‚ alpha 2 and alpha 3(29). They belong to the cell surface G-protein coupled

HCO3- Therefore‚ the increase in PCO2 will lower the pH due to increase in hydrogen ions‚ activating the central chemoreceptors to stimulate the Dorsal (DRG) and Ventral Respiratory group (VRG) which reflexly increase ventilation. Furthermore‚ the peripheral chemoreceptors located on the carotid arteries and aortic bodies is also responsible for detecting changes in arterial PCO2. Therefore‚ the human body tend to favour the hypercapnic drive‚ where response for increased ventilation occurs to exhale

hypothalamus stimulates corticotrophs in the anterior pituitary to release ACTH‚ which relays the signal to the adrenal cortex. Here‚ the zona fasciculata and zona reticularis‚ in response to ACTH‚ secrete glucocorticoids‚ in particular cortisol. In the peripheral tissues‚ cortisol is converted to cortisone by the enzyme 11-beta-steroid dehydrogenase. Cortisol has much greater glucocorticoid activity than cortisone‚ and‚ thus‚ cortisone can be considered an inactive metabolite of cortisol. However‚ 11-beta-steroid
