Coupling of alpha(1)-Adrenoceptors to ERK1/2 in the Human Prostate [PDF]

, 2011
Introduction: alpha(1)-Adrenoceptors are considered critical for the regulation of prostatic smooth muscle tone. However, previous studies suggested further alpha(1)-adrenoceptor functions besides contraction.

Late expression of alpha 2-adrenergic-mediated antilipolysis during differentiation of hamster preadipocytes.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1991
In order to study the ontogenesis of the beta- and alpha 2-adrenergic control of lipolysis during the adipose conversion process, a model based on preadipocytes isolated from the stromal-vascular fraction of hamster adipose tissue was developed.

Stress-Induced Cocaine Seeking Requires a Beta-2 Adrenergic Receptor-Regulated Pathway from the Ventral Bed Nucleus of the Stria Terminalis That Regulates CRF Actions in the Ventral Tegmental Area [PDF]

, 2014
The ventral bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (vBNST) has been implicated in stress-induced cocaine use. Here we demonstrate that, in the vBNST, corticotropin releasing factor (CRF) is expressed in neurons that innervate the ventral tegmental area (VTA)

Efficacy and safety of adrenergic alpha-1 receptor antagonists in older adults: a systematic review and meta-analysis supporting the development of recommendations to reduce potentially inappropriate prescribing

BMC Geriatrics, 2022
Background Adrenergic alpha-1 receptor antagonists (alpha-1 antagonists) are frequently used medications in the management of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) suggestive of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and in the management of therapy-resistant ...

Experimental Subarachnoid Hemorrhage Drives Catecholamine-Dependent Cardiac and Peripheral Microvascular Dysfunction

Frontiers in Physiology, 2020
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a devastating cerebral event caused by an aneurysmal rupture. In addition to neurological injury, SAH has significant effects on cardiac function and the peripheral microcirculation.
