Evidence for a Non-β2-Adrenoceptor Binding Site in Human Lung Tissue for a Subset of β2-Adrenoceptor Agonists
The aim of this study was to compare the binding profile of a range of β2-adrenoceptor (β2-AR) agonists and antagonists in human lung tissue. Radioligand saturation and competition binding experiments were performed by filtration with a β2-AR antagonist ([H]propranolol) or agonist ([H]vilanterol) radioligand and membrane fragments generated from lung parenchyma in the presence of 100 μM guanosi...
متن کاملConformationally Selective RNA Aptamers Allosterically Modulate the β2-Adrenoceptor
G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) ligands function by stabilizing multiple, functionally distinct receptor conformations. This property underlies the ability of 'biased agonists' to activate specific subsets of a given receptor's signaling profile. However, stabilizing distinct active GPCR conformations to enable structural characterization of mechanisms underlying GPCR activation remains diffi...
متن کاملβ2-Adrenoceptor agonists as novel, safe and potentially effective therapies for Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a chronic and progressive neuromuscular disease for which no cure exists and better treatment options are desperately needed. We hypothesize that currently approved β2-adrenoceptor agonists may effectively treat the symptoms and possibly slow the progression of ALS. Although β2-agonists are primarily used to treat asthma, pharmacologic data from animal mod...
متن کاملβ2-Adrenoceptor agonists reduce the decline of rat diaphragm twitch force during severe hypoxia.
The aim of the present study was to investigate the in vitro effects of the short-acting β2-adrenoceptor agonist salbutamol and the long-acting β2-adrenoceptor agonist salmeterol on hypoxia-induced rat diaphragm force reduction. In vitro diaphragm twitch force (Pt) and maximal tetanic force (Po) of isolated diaphragm muscle strips were measured for 90 min during hyperoxia (tissue bath [Formula:...
متن کاملProlyl hydroxylase 2: a novel regulator of β2-adrenoceptor internalization
Adrenergic receptor (AR)-mediated signalling is modulated by oxygen levels. Prolyl hydroxylases (PHDs) are crucial for intracellular oxygen sensing and organism survival. However, it remains to be clarified whether or how PHDs are involved in the regulation of β(2) -adrenoceptor (β(2) -AR) signalling. Here we show that PHD2 can modulate the rate of β(2) -AR internalization through interactions ...
