Comparative rates of desensitization of beta-adrenergic receptors by the beta-adrenergic receptor kinase and the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. [PDF]

open access: greenProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1991
Three separate processes may contribute to rapid beta-adrenergic receptor desensitization: functional uncoupling from the stimulatory guanine nucleotide-binding protein Gs, mediated by phosphorylation of the receptors by two distinct kinases, the specific beta-adrenergic receptor kinase (beta ARK) and the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase A (PKA), as

Rapid desensitization of neonatal rat liver beta-adrenergic receptors. A role for beta-adrenergic receptor kinase. [PDF]

open access: bronzeJournal of Clinical Investigation, 1994
Exposure of beta-adrenergic receptors (BAR) to agonists often leads to a rapid loss of receptor responsiveness. The proposed mechanisms of such rapid receptor desensitization include receptor phosphorylation by either cAMP-dependent protein kinase or the specific beta-adrenergic receptor kinase (BARK), leading to functional uncoupling from adenylyl ...

Altered expression of beta-adrenergic receptor kinase and beta 1-adrenergic receptors in the failing human heart. [PDF]

open access: bronzeCirculation, 1993
BACKGROUND In chronic heart failure, the positive inotropic effects of beta-adrenergic receptor agonists are greatly reduced, in part as a result of two alterations of the cardiac beta-adrenergic receptors: loss of their function (receptor uncoupling) and reduction of their number (downregulation).

Reduced beta-adrenergic receptor activation decreases G-protein expression and beta-adrenergic receptor kinase activity in porcine heart. [PDF]

open access: bronzeJournal of Clinical Investigation, 1995
To determine whether beta-adrenergic receptor agonist activation influences guanosine 5'-triphosphate-binding protein (G-protein) expression and beta-adrenergic receptor kinase activity in the heart, we examined the effects of chronic beta 1-adrenergic receptor antagonist treatment (bisoprolol, 0.2 mg/kg per d i.v., 35 d) on components of the ...

Beta 2 adrenergic receptor and mu opioid receptor interact to potentiate the aggressiveness of human breast cancer cell by activating the glycogen synthase kinase 3 signaling [PDF]

open access: goldBreast Cancer Research, 2022
Background Opioid and beta-adrenergic receptors are recently shown to cross talk via formation of receptor heterodimers to control the growth and proliferation of breast cancer cells.

Association of the ADRB2 rs1042714 variant with retinopathy of prematurity highlights the importance of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) remains a leading cause of childhood blindness globally. The clinical progression of ROP exhibits notable similarities to infantile hemangioma (IH), suggesting shared risk factors and underlying mechanisms.

Mechanism of beta-adrenergic receptor kinase activation by G proteins

open access: hybridJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1993
The beta-adrenergic receptor kinase (beta-ARK) specifically phosphorylates the activated form of various G protein-coupled receptors such as the beta 2-adrenergic receptor (beta 2-AR). Recently, G protein beta gamma subunits have been demonstrated to activate beta-ARK-mediated receptor phosphorylation.

Agonist-dependent phosphorylation of the alpha 2-adrenergic receptor by the beta-adrenergic receptor kinase.

open access: hybridJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1987
Desensitization of the beta-adrenergic receptor, a receptor which is coupled to the stimulation of adenylate cyclase, may be regulated via phosphorylation by a unique protein kinase. This recently discovered enzyme, known as the beta-adrenergic receptor kinase, only phosphorylates the agonist-occupied form of the beta-adrenergic receptor.

Expression of beta-arrestins and beta-adrenergic receptor kinases in the failing human heart. [PDF]

open access: bronzeCirculation Research, 1994
The beta-adrenergic receptor system of the failing human heart is markedly desensitized. We have recently postulated that this desensitization may in part be caused by an increase in beta-adrenergic receptor kinase (beta ARK) expression. beta ARK is thought to effect desensitization by acting in concert with an inhibitor protein, called beta-arrestin ...

Activation by G protein beta gamma subunits of beta-adrenergic and muscarinic receptor kinase. [PDF]

open access: hybridJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1993
We have shown previously that GTP-binding regulatory protein (G protein) beta gamma subunits stimulate the agonist- or light-dependent phosphorylation of muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (mAChRs) and rhodopsin by a protein kinase partially purified from porcine brain (mAChR kinase) but not the phosphorylation of rhodopsin by rhodopsin kinase (Haga, K.
