An assay for beta-adrenergic receptors in isolated human fat cells.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1982
The beta-adrenergic receptors have been characterized in isolated human adipocytes using a potent beta-adrenergic antagonist (-)-[3H]dihydroalprenolol.

Anti-Inflammatory and Antinociceptive Effects of Salbutamol on Acute and Chronic Models of Inflammation in Rats: Involvement of an Antioxidant Mechanism

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, 2012
The possible role of β-2 adrenergic receptors in modulation of inflammatory and nociceptive conditions suggests that the β-2 adrenergic receptor agonist, salbutamol, may have beneficial anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects.

Adipocyte β-arrestin-2 is essential for maintaining whole body glucose and energy homeostasis

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Beta3-adrenergic receptor signaling regulates adipose tissue browning. Here, the authors show that barr2 regulates internalization of beta3-adrenergic receptors and that mice lacking barr2 in adipocytes are protected from diet-induced weight gain and ...

Purinergic signalling: past, present and future [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The discovery of non-adrenergic, non-cholinergic neurotransmission in the gut and bladder in the early 1960's is described as well as the identification of adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) as a transmitter in these nerves in the early 1970's.

Preponderance of alpha 2- over beta 1-adrenergic receptor sites in human fat cells is not predictive of the lipolytic effect of physiological catecholamines

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1983
Adrenergic control of human fat cell lipolysis is mediated by two kinds of receptor sites that are simultaneously stimulated by physiological amines. To establish a correlation between the binding characteristics of the receptor and biological functions,
