The predominant receptor subtype present in blood vessels is the | The predominant receptor subtype present in blood vessels is the a1-adrenergic receptor, activation of which by catecholamine binding causes activation of the phospholipase-C (PLC), inositol triphosphate (IP3), diacylglycerol (DAG) intracellular signalling pathway. This ultimately results in myocyte contraction, vasoconstriction and consequent increases in systemic blood pressure. | ||

The net effect of the sympathetic system on the heart is to increase cardiac output. The adrenergic receptors found in the heart belong to the ß-receptor subfamily and include ß1 and ß3 receptors. Catecholamine binding to ß1-receptors in the heart causes increases in cardiac output via a number of mechanisms: positive chronotropic effects, positive inotropic effects increased automaticity and conduction in both ventricular myocytes and the atrioventricular (AV) node. However ß3-receptor activation antagonises these actions, producing a negative inotropic effect and providing an inbuilt control system within the heart. | ||
