Summary Introduction

To determine:

How sympathetic innervation regulates the vasodilation or vasoconstriction in the same blood vessels.

Concept introduction:

There are cholinergic as well as adrenergic receptors. The signaling molecules like hormones or neurotransmitters are known as ligands as they get bound to the receptors.

Blurred answer
Students have asked these similar questions
Epinephrine is released during vigorous exercise. How would epinephrine cause vasoconstriction in the digestive organs but vasodilation in the heart?
Following a large increase in sympathetic output from the vasomotor center, what tissues will get less blood (increased resistance, reduced flow), and which ones will continue to get plenty of flow? How is sympathetic control of skeletal muscle arterioles different from other vascular beds?
Explain how vascular resistance and blood flow are regulated by (a) sympathetic adrenergic fibers, (b) sympathetic cholinergic fibers, and (c) parasympathetic fibers.
