Safety and efficacy of beta-3 adrenergic agonists in treating neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction: A systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]
Purpose: To evaluate efficacy and safety of beta-3 adrenergic agonists in adults with neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction. Materials and Methods: According to a protocol (CRD42022350079), we searched multiple data sources for published and ...

Trafficking of β2-adrenergic receptors: insulin and β-agonists regulate internalization by distinct cytoskeletal pathways [PDF]
Insulin and β-adrenergic agonists stimulate a rapid phosphorylation and sequestration of the β2-adrenergic receptors (β2ARs). Although the expectation was that a common pathway would be involved in the trafficking of the β2AR in response to either hormone, studies reported herein show the existence of unique cytoskeletal requirements for ...

Differential expression of skeletal muscle genes following administration of clenbuterol to exercised horses. [PDF]
BackgroundClenbuterol, a beta2-adrenergic receptor agonist, is used therapeutically to treat respiratory conditions in the horse. However, by virtue of its mechanism of action it has been suggested that clenbuterol may also have repartitioning affects in

Functional selectivity of GPCR-directed drug action through location bias. [PDF]
G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are increasingly recognized to operate from intracellular membranes as well as the plasma membrane. The β 2 -adrenergic GPCR can activate G s -linked cyclic AMP (G s -cAMP) signaling from endosomes.

Beta-agonist stimulation ameliorates the phenotype of spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy mice and patient-derived myotubes [PDF]
Spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy (SBMA) is a neuromuscular disease characterized by the loss of lower motor neurons. SBMA is caused by expansions of a polyglutamine tract in the gene coding for androgen receptor (AR).

Concerted action of human chorionic gonadotropin and norepinephrine on intracellular-free calcium in human granulosa-lutein cells [PDF]
Luteal cells are known to possess receptors for LH/hCG and receptors of the beta-adrenergic type. Interactions of specific agonists with either receptor lead to the activation of adenylate cyclase and subsequently to an increase of cAMP.

Prolonged β-Agonist Infusion Does Not Induce Desensitization or Down-Regulation of β-Adrenergic Receptors in Newborn Sheep [PDF]
In adult animals, prolonged beta-agonist exposure leads to down-regulation of beta-adrenergic receptors and desensitization. Prior evidence from our lab suggests that this may not occur in developing animals. To study this, we measured the response to graded epinephrine infusion [2.7, 5.5, 13.6, 27.3 mumol/(kg.min), (0.5, 1.0, 2.5, 5.0 micrograms/(kg ...
