متن کاملTargeted overexpression of ornithine decarboxylase enhances beta-adrenergic agonist-induced cardiac hypertrophy.
These studies were designed to determine the consequences of constitutive overexpression of ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) in the heart. Induction of ODC is known to occur in response to agents that induce cardiac hypertrophy. However, it is not known whether high ODC levels are sufficient for the development of a hypertrophic phenotype. Transgenic mice were generated with cardiac-specific expre...
متن کاملcAMP stimulates transcription of the beta 2-adrenergic receptor gene in response to short-term agonist exposure.
In addition to conveying cellular responses to an effector molecule, receptors are often themselves regulated by their effectors. We have demonstrated that epinephrine modulates both the rate of transcription of the beta 2-adrenergic receptor (beta 2AR) gene and the steady-state level of beta 2AR mRNA in DDT1MF-2 cells. Short-term (30 min) exposure to epinephrine (100 nM) stimulates the rate of...
متن کاملPirbuterol, an oral beta-adrenergic receptor agonist, in the treatment of chronic cardiac failure.
Pirbuterol (PB), an oral beta-adrenergic-receptor agonist, has the pharmacologic effects of vasodilation and positive inotropy. The present studies were undertaken to determine the value of PB in the long-term therapy of chronic cardiac failure. A double-blind, randomized, 7-week trial comparing PB (20 mg three times daily) with placebo in 12 patients was followed by 12 weeks of open PB therapy...
متن کاملBeta-2 adrenergic receptor
The beta-2 adrenergic receptor (β2 adrenoreceptor), also known as ADRB2, is a cell membrane-spanning beta-adrenergic receptor that interacts with (binds) epinephrine, a hormone and neurotransmitter (ligand synonym, adrenaline) whose signaling, via a downstream Ltype calcium channel interaction, mediates physiologic responses such as smooth muscle relaxation and bronchodilation. Unlike other adr...
