Shane Wright, Assistant Professor at the Department of Physiology and Pharmacology, and colleagues have uncovered a new way ...

Advances in molecular genetics have identified genetic polymorphisms in the human ß-adrenergic receptor genes; some of this variation predicts changes in protein sequence/structure, and ...

Certain areas called adrenergic receptors receive the messages from epinephrine and norepinephrine that tell your body how to respond. Adrenergic drugs also interact with these receptors.

The addition of β-adrenergic receptor antagonists to a medical regimen for heart failure that includes angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors as background therapy has been associated ...

Not All Beta-adrenergic Receptors Cause Heart Disease Along The Same Pathway Date: April 23, 2007 Source: Journal of Clinical Investigation Summary: Individuals with some forms of heart failure ...

Noradrenaline exerts its effects by binding to adrenergic receptors. Beta blockers target b-adrenergic receptors, but there are also exist a-adrenergic receptors, for which there exists alpha ...

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. These drugs are used to treat ...
