Blocking beta 2-adrenergic receptor inhibits dendrite ramification in a mouse model of Alzheimer's disease

Neural Regeneration Research, 2017
Dendrite ramification affects synaptic strength and plays a crucial role in memory. Previous studies revealed a correlation between beta 2-adrenergic receptor dysfunction and Alzheimer's disease (AD), although the mechanism involved is still poorly ...

β-Adrenergic receptor signaling and modulation of long-term potentiation in the mammalian hippocampus

Learning & memory (Cold Spring Harbor, N.Y.), 2015
Encoding new information in the brain requires changes in synaptic strength. Neuromodulatory transmitters can facilitate synaptic plasticity by modifying the actions and expression of specific signaling cascades, transmitter receptors and their ...

Molecular Mechanism for Ligand Recognition and Subtype Selectivity of α2C Adrenergic Receptor

Cell Reports, 2019
Summary: Adrenergic G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) mediate different cellular signaling pathways in the presence of endogenous catecholamines and play important roles in both physiological and pathological conditions.

The heartbreak of depression: 'Psycho-cardiac' coupling in myocardial infarction [PDF]

, 2017
Ample evidence identifies strong links between major depressive disorder (MDD) and both risk of ischemic or coronary heart disease (CHD) and resultant morbidity and mortality. The molecular mechanistic bases of these linkages are poorly defined. Systemic

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

Concerted action of human chorionic gonadotropin and norepinephrine on intracellular-free calcium in human granulosa-lutein cells [PDF]

, 1993
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.

Urology Residency Directors' Awareness of Association between α-Adrenergic Antagonists and Floppy Iris Syndrome and Practice Patterns Regarding Prophylactic α-Adrenergic Antagonists

Journal of Academic Ophthalmology, 2019
Purpose The use of prophylactic α-adrenergic receptor antagonists prior to surgery is associated with reduced postoperative urinary retention. However, α-adrenergic receptor antagonists have been associated with intraoperative floppy iris syndrome (IFIS).

Molecular biology of amitraz resistance in cattle ticks of the genus Rhipicephalus [PDF]

, 2018
Amitraz is an important product for the control of cattle ticks around the world. In comparison with other products for the control of ticks, it is quite affordable and it has a rapid knock-down effect.

Involvement of Noradrenergic Neurotransmission in the Stress- but not Cocaine-Induced Reinstatement of Extinguished Cocaine-Induced Conditioned Place Preference in Mice: Role for β-2 Adrenergic Receptors [PDF]

, 2010
The responsiveness of central noradrenergic systems to stressors and cocaine poses norepinephrine as a potential common mechanism through which drug re-exposure and stressful stimuli promote relapse.

BIOMARKER IDENTIFICATION IN BREAST CANCER: BETA-ADRENERGIC RECEPTOR SIGNALING AND PATHWAYS TO THERAPEUTIC RESPONSE

Computational and Structural Biotechnology Journal, 2013
Recent preclinical studies have associated beta-adrenergic receptor (β-AR) signaling with breast cancer pathways such as progression and metastasis. These findings have been supported by clinical and epidemiological studies which examined the effect of ...
