Effects of adrenergic .ALPHA.-agonists on the secretion of glycoproteins from the secretory cells of the rat submandibular gland.

Japanese Journal of Oral Biology, 1988
The effects of six different α-agonists: methoxamine (MET), phenylephrine (PHE), metaraminol (MTA), naphazoline (NAP), oxymetazoline (OXY), and clonidine (CLO), each administered at a dose of 8mg/kg, on the secretion of glycoprotein (GP) and fluid from the submandibular glands were studied in anesthetized rats. Salivation elicited by the drugs occurred

An Alpha-1A Adrenergic Receptor Agonist Prevents Acute Doxorubicin Cardiomyopathy in Male Mice. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2017
Alpha-1 adrenergic receptors mediate adaptive effects in the heart and cardiac myocytes, and a myocyte survival pathway involving the alpha-1A receptor subtype and ERK activation exists in vitro. However, data in vivo are limited.

Inhibition of the lipolytic action of beta-adrenergic agonists in human adipocytes by alpha-adrenergic agonists.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1981
The aim of this study was to define the role of the alpha-adrenergic receptor in the regulation of lipolysis by human adipocytes. Glycerol production by isolated human adipocytes was stimulated by the pure beta-adrenergic agonist isoproterenol in a dose ...
