Teleological significance of beta adrenergic receptors in muscle blood vessels.
Teleological significance of the pressence of beta adrenergic receptors in blood vessels of skeletal muscle seems to be in redistributing blood flow from viscera to skeletal muscle when muscular activity is required or anticipated. Adrenaline secreted from the adrenal medulla in such occasions constricts blood vessels in viscera as its alpha effect and dilates blood vessels in muscle as its bet...
متن کاملAdrenergic alpha 1 and alpha 2 binding sites are present in bovine retinal blood vessels.
Bovine retinal vessels have sites that specifically bind 3H-p-aminoclonidine (3H-PAC) with an apparent dissociation constant of 0.12 nM and a capacity of binding of 0.15 pmol/g. In addition, these vessels have 3H-prazosin binding sites bearing a dissociation constant of 5 nM and a binding capacity of 5 pmol/g. To understand the implications for retina-optic nerve vascular physiology and pathoph...
متن کاملCentral H2 histaminergic and alpha-2 adrenergic receptors involvement in crocetin-induced antinociception in orofacial formalin pain in rats
Previous findings have shown that saffron (Crocus sativus L.) extract and its active constituents produce antinociceptive effects in the rat models of orofacial pain. In the present study, the central H2 histaminergic and alpha-2 adrenergic receptors involvement in crocetin-induced antinociception in orofacial formalin pain in rats was evaluated.The guide cannula was implant...
متن کاملAlpha-adrenergic blocking properties of droperidol on isolated blood vessels of the dog.
Concentrations of droperidol which caused a shift to the right of the dose-response curve to noradrenaline in the pulmonary artery and the saphenous vein of the dog did not affect myogenic activation by K+; they did not inhibit spontaneous activity of portal-mesenteric veins. Droperidol inhibited the contractile response to nerve stimulation, but did not affect the evoked release of 3H-noradren...
متن کاملTranscriptional regulation of alpha-1 adrenergic receptors.
Regulation of alpha1-adrenergic receptors (alpha1ARs) is a rapidly expanding field of study due to the involvement of these receptors in several human diseases. For example, upregulation of alpha1bAR mRNA/protein with agonist exposure has been implicated in myocardial hypertrophy. In order to understand mechanisms underlying these findings, initial studies of human alpha1bAR transcription have ...
