Classical psychedelics like LSD, psilocybin, and mescaline are known for activating the 5-HT2A serotonin receptor, but a new ...

This article reviews the current state of knowledge and understanding of the genetic variation present in the three human beta-adrenergic receptor genes.

Noradrenaline Improves Behavioral Contrast Sensitivity via the β-Adrenergic Receptor. PLOS ONE , 2016; 11 (12): e0168455 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0168455 Cite This Page : ...

OBJECTIVE: To examine the role of the Trp64Arg polymorphism in the β3-adrenergic receptor gene and the β3-adrenergic receptor gene locus in obesity-related traits in African Americans. SUBJECTS ...

“The results of a fairly recent trial showed that use of a beta-3 adrenergic receptor agonist improved left ventricular ejection fraction in a subgroup of patients with advanced heart failure.

In their study, the researchers focused on the β1-adrenergic receptor, a GPCR that plays a key role in the cardiovascular system and is targeted by beta-blockers.

Norepinephrine has a higher affinity for α-adrenergic receptors than β-adrenergic receptors. Thus, it produces a powerful vasoconstriction effect. However, it is also a less potent inotropic and ...

The nerves secreted more noradrenaline at night, activating β2-adrenergic receptor molecules on the surface of T and B cells that impede the cells' exit from lymph nodes.
