HEART ANATOMY Flashcards
Pulmonary semi-lunar valve
Prevents blood flowing from the pulmonary artery bark into the right ventricle
Aortic (systemic) semi-lunar valve
Prevents blood from flowing from the aorta back into the left ventricle
Atrio-Ventricular valve (Tricuspid)
Prevents blood flowing from right ventricle to right atrium
Atrio-ventriuclar valve (Bicuspid mitral)
Prevents blood flowing from left ventricle back into left atrium
If it prevents blood flowing back into the ventricle it is a
Semi lunar valve
If it is a valve that prevents blood flowing back into the atrium it is a
Ventricular valve
M1,M3,M5 couples with what G protein receptor
Gq
M2 and M4 couples with
GI and GO
A1 adrenoreceptor couples with
Gq
A2 adrenoreceptors couples with
GI or Go
Beta adrenoreceptors couple with
Gs
Receptors in the heart
Main receptors = B1 AND M2
B2,Alpha 1 and angiotensin II receptors
