Sustained Hypoxic Pulmonary Vasoconstriction in the Isolated Perfused Rat Lung: Effect of α1-adrenergic Receptor Agonist
Background: Alveolar hypoxia induces monophasic pulmonary vasoconstriction in vivo, biphasic vasoconstriction in the isolated pulmonary artery, and controversial responses in the isolated perfused lung. Pulmonary vascular responses to sustained alveolar hypoxia have not been addressed in the isolated perfused rat lung. In this study, we investigated the effect of sustained hypoxic ventilation o...
متن کاملRegulation of pineal alpha1B-adrenergic receptor mRNA: day/night rhythm and beta-adrenergic receptor/cyclic AMP control.
Mammalian pineal function is regulated by norepinephrine acting through alpha1beta- and beta1-adrenergic receptors (ARs). Noradrenergic stimulation of alpha1beta-ARs potentiates the beta1-AR-driven increase in cAMP, serotonin N-acetyltransferase, and melatonin production. In the present study, we describe a 3-fold daily rhythm in mRNA-encoding alpha1beta-ARs in the pineal gland, with a peak at ...
متن کاملApparent histological changes of adipocytes after treatment with CL 316,243, a β-3-adrenergic receptor agonist
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The objective of this experiment was to study the effect of CL 316,243 (CL) (a highly selective β3-adrenergic receptor agonist) on cellular changes occurring in retroperitoneal white adipose tissue (RWAT) of lean and obese rats. METHODS Ten-month-old lean and obese Zucker rats were implanted subcutaneously with osmotic mini-pumps, infusing either saline or CL (1 mg/k...
متن کاملRegulation of β-Adrenergic Receptor Signaling by S-Nitrosylation of G-Protein-Coupled Receptor Kinase 2
beta-adrenergic receptors (beta-ARs), prototypic G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), play a critical role in regulating numerous physiological processes. The GPCR kinases (GRKs) curtail G-protein signaling and target receptors for internalization. Nitric oxide (NO) and/or S-nitrosothiols (SNOs) can prevent the loss of beta-AR signaling in vivo, but the molecular details are unknown. Here we sh...
متن کاملOptodynamic simulation of β-adrenergic receptor signalling
Optogenetics has provided a revolutionary approach to dissecting biological phenomena. However, the generation and use of optically active GPCRs in these contexts is limited and it is unclear how well an opsin-chimera GPCR might mimic endogenous receptor activity. Here we show that a chimeric rhodopsin/β2 adrenergic receptor (opto-β2AR) is similar in dynamics to endogenous β2AR in terms of: cAM...
