Cannabinoid Receptor Involvement in Stress-Induced Cocaine Reinstatement: Potential Interaction with Noradrenergic Pathways [PDF]
, 2012 This study examined the role of endocannabinoid signaling in stress-induced reinstatement of cocaine seeking and explored the interaction between noradrenergic and endocannabinergic systems in the process.

β‐Agonist‐induced constitutive β2‐adrenergic receptor activity in bovine tracheal smooth muscle [PDF]
British Journal of Pharmacology, 2000 According to the two state receptor model, the β2‐adrenergic receptor (β2‐AR) isomerizes between an inactive state and a constitutively active state, which couples to the stimulatory G‐protein in the absence of agonist. In bovine tracheal smooth muscle (BTSM), we investigated the effect of short and long term β2‐AR activation by fenoterol on ...

Both Ligand- and Cell-Specific Parameters Control Ligand Agonism in a Kinetic Model of G Protein–Coupled Receptor Signaling [PDF]
, 2007 G protein–coupled receptors (GPCRs) exist in multiple dynamic states (e.g., ligand-bound, inactive, G protein–coupled) that influence G protein activation and ultimately response generation. In quantitative models of GPCR signaling that incorporate these

Antithetic regulation by β-adrenergic receptors of Gq receptor signaling via phospholipase C underlies the airway β-agonist paradox [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Investigation, 2003 beta-adrenergic receptors (betaARs) relax airway smooth muscle and bronchodilate, but chronic beta-agonist treatment in asthma causes increased sensitivity to airway constriction (hyperreactivity) and is associated with exacerbations. This paradox was explored using mice with ablated betaAR genes (betaAR-/-) and transgenic mice overexpressing airway ...

Mirtazapine decreases stimulatory effects of reboxetine on cortisol, adrenocorticotropin and prolactin secretion in healthy male subjects [PDF]
, 2004 Reboxetine is a selective noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor, whereas mirtazapine acts as an antagonist at noradrenergic alpha(2), serotonin (5-HT2), 5-HT3 and histamine H-1 receptors.
