Adrenergic Receptors in the Heart [PDF]

open access: possibleAnnual Review of Physiology, 1982
Introduction Catecholamines, acting through alphaand beta-adrenergic receptors, modulate a variety of physiological responses in the heart. Most impor­ tantly catecholamines increase the rate and force of cardiac contraction. These actions occur mainly as a consequence of the binding of the endoge­ nous substances norepinephrine and epinephrine to ...

The hepatic adrenergic receptors

Molecular and Cellular Biochemistry, 1980
The presence of both alpha- and beta-adrenergic receptors in liver designated the hepatic plasma membrane as a useful tool for the elucidation of the mechanisms by which the hormonal signal is transferred through the membrane via a coupling system to an amplifying entity.

Cardiac Adrenergic Receptors

Annual Review of Medicine, 1984
Recently developed pharmacological and biochemical techniques have brought new insights about the structure, function, and regulation of beta-adrenergic receptors. This chapter focuses on the cardiac beta-adrenergic receptor and the possible clinical and physiological implications of this new information.

α-Adrenergic Receptors

1984
Adrenergic receptors are discrete recognition sites located on the plasma membrane of cells. Their primary function is to recognize and to bind epinephrine and related molecules, which can initiate several biochemical processes resulting in a physiological response.

Biotechnology of β-adrenergic receptors [PDF]

open access: possibleMolecular Neurobiology, 1990
This article discusses the structural and functional features of a new family of membrane receptors including alpha-adrenergic and beta-adrenergic receptors for catecholamines, muscarinic receptors for acetylcholine, and receptors for histamine, dopamine, serotonin, and neuropeptides such as angiotensin.

Molecular biology of adrenergic receptors

Journal of Hypertension, 1992
G protein-coupled receptors respond to many neuro- and autocrine transmitters. Among these receptors, adrenergic receptors are particularly important in the regulation of cardiovascular function. The primary physiological agonists for these receptors are epinephrine and norepinephrine, which have been used to differentiate α- and s-receptor families [1]

Regulation of Adrenergic Receptors [PDF]

open access: possible, 1981
Transmission of intercellular messages by the adrenergic mediators, epinephrine and norepinephrine, is a ubiquitous phenomenon in vertebrates which continues to invoke investigative effort after many years of research. It has become apparent that both the release and biological actions of these mediators are modulated very specifically by ...

Structure of β-Adrenergic Receptors

2013
β-Adrenergic receptors (βARs) control key physiological functions by transducing signals encoded in catecholamine hormones and neurotransmitters to activate intracellular signaling pathways. As members of the large family of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), βARs have a seven-transmembrane helix topology and signal via G protein- and arrestin ...
