Pharmacogenetics of ophthalmic topical β-blockers [PDF]
, 2008 Glaucoma is the second leading cause of blindness worldwide. The primary glaucoma risk factor is elevated intraocular pressure. Topical β-blockers are affordable and widely used to lower intraocular pressure.

Internalization dissociates β2-adrenergic receptors. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) self-associate as dimers or higher-order oligomers in living cells. The stability of associated GPCRs has not been extensively studied, but it is generally thought that these receptors move between the plasma membrane ...

Pregnancy modifies the α2-β-adrenergic receptor functional balance in rabbit fat cells
Journal of Lipid Research, 1999 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

Antipsychotic-induced bone loss: the role of dopamine, serotonin and adrenergic receptor signalling
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2023 Antipsychotics are commonly used in treating psychiatric disorders. These medications primarily target dopamine the serotonin receptors, they have some affinity to adrenergic, histamine, glutamate and muscarinic receptors. There is clinical evidence that

Molecular Mechanism for Ligand Recognition and Subtype Selectivity of α2C Adrenergic Receptor
Cell Reports, 2019 Summary: Adrenergic G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) mediate different cellular signaling pathways in the presence of endogenous catecholamines and play important roles in both physiological and pathological conditions.

The role of spinal adrenergic receptors on the antinociception of ginsenosides in a rat postoperative pain model [PDF]
Korean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2013 BackgroundThe effect of spinal adrenergic and cholinergic receptors on the anti-nociceptive effect of intrathecal ginsenosides was determined in a rat postoperative pain model.MethodsCatheters were placed into the intrathecal space of male Sprague-Dawley

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Dormant cancer cells can hide in distant organs for years, evading treatment and the immune system. This review highlights how signals from the surrounding tissue and immune environment keep these cells inactive or trigger their reawakening. Understanding these mechanisms may help develop therapies to eliminate or control dormant cells and prevent ...

The Effect of a Reduced-Calorie Diet on alpha-2 Adrenergic Receptor Responsiveness in Abdominal Adipose Tissue in Obese Men During Exercise [PDF]
, 2008 There is at present an imperfect understanding of the effect of diet on availability of inhibitory receptors in fat cells during exercise among obese men. *Objective:* The purpose of this study was to determine whether diet results in
