The Role of Beta-Adrenergic Receptors in Depression and Resilience
Norepinephrine is a catecholamine neurotransmitter that has been extensively implicated in the neurobiology of major depressive disorder (MDD). An accumulating body of evidence indicates that investigations into the action of norepinephrine at the ...

Receptor-mediated enhancement of beta adrenergic drug activity by ascorbate in vitro and in vivo. [PDF]
RATIONALE: Previous in vitro research demonstrated that ascorbate enhances potency and duration of activity of agonists binding to alpha 1 adrenergic and histamine receptors.

Beta Adrenergic Receptors in Keratinocytes [PDF]
Beta2 adrenergic receptors were identified in keratinocytes more than 30 years ago, but their function in the epidermis continues to be elucidated. Abnormalities in their expression, signaling pathway, or in the generation of endogenous catecholamine agonists by keratinocytes have been implicated in the pathogenesis of cutaneous diseases such as atopic

Alpha and beta adrenergic receptors modulate keratinocyte migration.
Keratinocyte migration into skin wounds is the step of the healing process that correlates with the wound closure rate. Keratinocyte migration, and wound epithelialization are decreased when beta 2-adrenergic receptors (B2AR) are activated by 1 μM ...

Studies of membrane fluidity and heart contractile force in Trypanosoma cruzi infected mice
In Chagas disease serious cardiac dysfunction can appear. We specifically studied the cardiac function by evaluating: ventricle contractile force and norepinephrine response, affinity and density of beta-adrenergic receptors, dynamic properties of ...

Efficacy of beta 1-adrenergic receptors is lower than that of beta 2-adrenergic receptors. [PDF]
We investigated the relative activity at which fully occupied human beta 1- and beta 2-adrenergic receptors (beta 1AR and beta 2AR) activate the stimulatory G protein (Gs)/adenylyl cyclase (AC) system in isolated membranes. The receptors were cloned and coexpressed in permanent cell lines at beta 1/beta 2 ratios that varied from 1:2 to 3:1 and at total

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,
