Role of adrenergic receptor signalling in neuroimmune communication
Current Research in Immunology, 2021 Neuroimmune communication plays a crucial role in maintaining homeostasis and promptly responding to any foreign insults. Sympathetic nerve fibres are innervated into all the lymphoid organs (bone marrow, thymus, spleen, and lymph nodes) and provide a ...

α1-Adrenergic Receptors in Neurotransmission, Synaptic Plasticity, and Cognition
Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2020 α1-adrenergic receptors are G-Protein Coupled Receptors that are involved in neurotransmission and regulate the sympathetic nervous system through binding and activating the neurotransmitter, norepinephrine, and the neurohormone, epinephrine.
