Five adrenoceptor subtypes are involved in the adrenergic regulation of white and brown fat
cell function. The effects on cAMP production and cAMP-related cellular responses are …

Adrenergic receptors for adrenaline and noradrenaline belong to the large multigenic family
of receptors coupled to GTP‐binding proteins. Three pharmacologic types have been …

Abstract α 2-Adrenergic receptors in brain are important presynaptic modulators of central
noradrenergic function (autoreceptors) and postsynaptic mediators of many of the …

Melanocytes and melanoma cells are known to possess receptors for melanocyte
stimulating hormone (MSH). A cDNA clone, designated IID, has been isolated from human …

Different studies have led to our present knowledge of the membrane receptors responsible
for mediating the responses to the endogenous catecholamines. These receptors were …

The adrenergic receptors are members of the superfamily of G protein‐coupled receptors.
There are three major types of adrenergic receptors: α1, α2, and β. Each of these three …

The α 2-adrenoceptor was subdivided into three subtypes: α 2A-, α 2B-and α 2C-
adrenoceptors almost ten years ago. Since then, the search has been on to discover and …

In this review, subtypes of functional α1-and α2-adrenoceptors are discussed. These are cell
membrane receptors, belonging to the seven transmembrane spanning G-protein-linked …

Through molecular cloning, the existence of three distinct subtypes ofα 2-adrenergic
receptors (α 2 AR)-A, B and C-has been established and are referred to asα 2A AR, α 2B AR …

Although the clinical course of multiple sclerosis is benign in up to one-third of patients, it is
important to recognize the high rate of morbidity in others. Most individuals pass through a …
