Beta 2 adrenergic receptor agonists as a treatment for metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) [PDF]
MASH is a leading cause of liver transplantation. Here, we investigated formoterol, a long-acting β2 adrenergic receptor agonist (LABA), in MASH. Mice treated with a high-fat diet (HFD) for sixteen weeks developed liver steatosis and were treated with ...

Adrenergic effects on hypothalamic activity: Alpha and beta agonists and antagonists [PDF]
Dose-response curves were plotted to analyze the effects of adrenergic agonists and antagonists upon neural activity within the hypothalamus. Multiple unit activity (MUA) was recorded following microinjection of the drugs directly into the recording site through a hollow recording electrode.

The β-blocker Nebivolol Is a GRK/β-arrestin Biased Agonist [PDF]
Nebivolol, a third generation β-adrenoceptor (β-AR) antagonist (β-blocker), causes vasodilation by inducing nitric oxide (NO) production. The mechanism via which nebivolol induces NO production remains unknown, resulting in the genesis of much of the ...
