Evidence for a Second Desensitized State of β‐Adrenergic Receptor with Low Affinity for β‐Antagonists and Normal Reactivity towards β‐Agonists in Adipocyte Membranes Previously Exposed to β‐Antagonists [PDF]
When adipocyte membranes are successively exposed to (−)‐propranolol or (±)‐alprenolo1 at 25 or 4°C, repeatedly washed and then assayed for (−)‐[3H]dihydroalprenolol binding, the apparent number of β‐adrenergic binding sites is markedly decreased. Induction of this peculiar type of receptor desensitization does not require prolonged exposure of the ...

Expression of inwardly rectifying potassium channels (GIRKs) and beta-adrenergic regulation of breast cancer cell lines [PDF]
Background Previous research has indicated that at various organ sites there is a subset of adenocarcinomas that is regulated by beta-adrenergic and arachidonic acid-mediated signal transduction pathways.

Effects of Alpha‐ and Beta‐Adrenergic Agonists and Antagonists on Growth Hormone Secretion in Man [PDF]
It is well known that the adrenergic system has both stimulatory and inhibitory influences on growth hormone (GH) secretion probably by modulating GH‐releasing hormone (GHRH) and/or somatostatin release. To better understand the mechanisms by which these

New onset bronchial asthma following oral propranolol for infantile hemangioma. [PDF]
Propranolol, a nonselective adrenergic beta-receptor blocker, is the first-line drug used for the treatment of infantile hemangiomas (IH). However, its use is contraindicated in patients with bronchial asthma.
