α1-Adrenergic Receptors in Neurotransmission, Synaptic Plasticity, and Cognition
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.

Role of adrenergic receptors in shock
Shock is a severe, life-threatening medical condition with a high mortality rate worldwide. All four major categories of shock (along with their various subtypes)—hypovolemic, distributive, cardiogenic, and obstructive, involve a dramatic mismatch ...

Structural Basis of the Diversity of Adrenergic Receptors
Summary: Adrenergic receptors are highly homologous while at the same time display a wide diversity of ligand and G-protein binding, and understanding this diversity is key for designing selective or biased drugs for them.

Interaction studies on catecholamines to cellular receptors using in silico approach
Catecholamines are organic compounds derived from amino acids tyrosine and phenylalanine, which acts as neurotransmitters and also functions as hormones in the blood circulation. They bind to plasma proteins and circulate in the blood stream. High levels

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 ...

Pregnancy modifies the α2-β-adrenergic receptor functional balance in rabbit fat cells
The sympathetic nervous system controls lipolysis in fat by activation of four adrenergic receptors: β1, β2, β3, and α2. During pregnancy, maternal metabolism presents anabolic and catabolic phases, characterized by modifications of fat responsiveness to
