Polymorphisms of beta2-adrenergic receptor gene (ADRB2) are clinically relevant for several reasons, including as a risk factor for asthma development/severity and predicting the effectiveness of treatment with beta2-agonists in reducing asthma symptoms. The aim of this study was to examine the association between ADRB2 gene polymorphisms and asthma in

American Journal of Physiology-Lung Cellular and Molecular Physiology, 1995
Few studies have addressed whether target tissue adrenergic receptors in humans undergo desensitization in response to agonist administration. To determine whether lung cell beta 2-adrenergic receptors (beta 2-AR) undergo such desensitization, we harvested bronchial epithelial cells and alveolar macrophages via bronchoscopy from eight normal subjects ...

In vitro incubation of cells with catecholamines leads to both down regulation of beta adrenergic receptor number and desensitization of agonist-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity. These same parameters, down regulation of beta adrenergic receptor number and desensitization of adenylate cyclase activity were assessed in rat lung membranes after in ...

Lung, 1988
This study was designed to clarify the mechanism of tolerance that occurs during prolonged administration of a beta-agonist in relation to membrane phospholipid degradation and to elucidate the effect of diltiazem, a calcium antagonist. Guinea pigs were divided into 3 groups: (1) control--physiological saline (0.5 ml) was injected once a day for 7 ...

Effects of ?-agonists on b- and c-waves implicit for adrenergic mechanisms in cat retina
Documenta Ophthalmologica, 1987Nylidrin (buphenine) is a beta-adrenergic agonist known to dilate peripheral vessels and used therapeutically in retinal degeneration and glaucoma. We studied retinal function under beta-agonists in arterially perfused cat eyes and observed a dose-dependent, reversible increase in b-wave amplitude and a decrease in c-wave amplitude in concentrations ...

Response to inhaled beta-agonist in a patient receiving beta-adrenergic blockers.
Archives of internal medicine, 1984A 52-year-old man receiving long-term hemodialysis and a beta-adrenergic blocker for hypertension had symptoms of acute bronchospasm when exposed to a new hemodialyzer. Resistant to two doses of subcutaneous epinephrine (1 mL of 1:1000 dilution) and one intravenous dose of aminophylline (250 mg), the bronchospasm was rapidly relieved by metaproterenol ...

[The effect of adrenergic beta agonists on morbidity and mortality of asthma].
Presse medicale (Paris, France : 1983), 1993The frequency and severity of asthma are increasing, and since 1960 two "epidemics" of deaths have occurred. During the first one, in the 1960's, a beta-adrenergic agonist with low specificity administered in high doses was blamed and usually exonerated.

Expert Opinion on Pharmacotherapy, 2007
Aspects of the 'beta-agonist controversy' have recently re-emerged with the publication of data implicating the long-acting beta-agonist salmeterol in increased mortality from asthma. The reasons underlying the adverse effects of beta2-agonists as a class are unclear.

The major focus of this paper is the characterization and quantification of rat cardiomyocyte, cell-surface beta-adrenergic receptors labelled with the hydrophilic radioligand [3H]CGP-12177. The ventricular cardiomyocytes used in these experiments have previously been extensively studied in our laboratory and confirmed to be functionally compatible ...

Analytical Chemistry, 2000
A technique for coating of microplate wells with a molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP), specific for epinephrine, is presented. 3-Aminophenylboronic acid was polymerized in the presence of epinephrine using oxidation of the monomer by ammonium persulfate.
