In the sympathetic nervous system, the adrenergic receptors (both alpha and beta subclasses) are of central importance in mediating the response of cells and organs to sympathetic discharges.

Fan and his colleagues deleted three different forms of the receptors (alpha, beta, and gamma) in the muscle tissues of mice and examined the resulting effects. They found that while the most ...

Thyroid hormones exert their effects through alpha (TRα1) and beta (TRβ1 and TRβ2) receptors. Here we describe a child with classic features of hypothyroidism (growth retardation, developmental ...

Now, a potential alternative strategy to treating heart failure by targeting molecules downstream of beta ... alpha MAPK rescues cardiomyopathy induced by overexpressed beta2-adrenergic receptor ...

Blocking cell receptors for glucagon ... the researchers injected human alpha and beta cells into immunodeficient NOD mice -- just enough cells to produce sufficient insulin to make the animals ...

Researchers performed an analysis of molecular variance in 59 haplotypes of the IFNAR gene, departing from monkeypox virus, camelpox virus, buffalopox virus, ectromelia virus, cowpox virus ...

Chemically, epinephrine and norepinephrine are very similar. Both epinephrine and norepinephrine work on alpha and beta receptors. However, epinephrine has a greater effect on beta receptors ...

Beta-adrenergic signaling mechanisms are of ... have identified genetic polymorphisms in the human ß-adrenergic receptor genes; some of this variation predicts changes in protein sequence ...
