Hypoxia sensing through β-adrenergic receptors.
Life-sustaining responses to low oxygen, or hypoxia, depend on signal transduction by HIFs, but the underlying mechanisms by which cells sense hypoxia are not completely understood. Based on prior studies suggesting a link between the β-adrenergic receptor (β-AR) and hypoxia responses, we hypothesized that the β-AR mediates hypoxia sensing and is necessary for HIF-1α accumulation. Beta blocker ...
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 ...
متن کاملStructure, function, and regulation of adrenergic receptors.
Adrenergic receptors for adrenaline and noradrenaline belong to the large multigenic family of receptors coupled to GTP-binding proteins. Three pharmacologic types have been identified: alpha 1-, alpha 2-, and beta-adrenergic receptors. Each of these has three subtypes, characterized by both structural and functional differences. The alpha 2 and beta receptors are coupled negatively and positiv...
متن کاملRegulation of cardiac nitric oxide signaling by nuclear β-adrenergic and endothelin receptors.
At the cell surface, βARs and endothelin receptors can regulate nitric oxide (NO) production. β-adrenergic receptors (βARs) and type B endothelin receptors (ETB) are present in cardiac nuclear membranes and regulate transcription. The present study investigated the role of the NO pathway in the regulation of gene transcription by these nuclear G protein-coupled receptors. Nitric oxide productio...
متن کاملβ-Adrenergic Regulation of Synaptic NMDA Receptors by cAMP-Dependent Protein Kinase
To identify the protein kinases regulating synaptic NMDA receptors, as well as the conditions favoring enhancement of NMDA receptor-mediated excitatory postsynaptic currents (EPSCs) by phosphorylation, we studied the effects of kinase activation and inhibition in hippocampal neurons. Inhibition of cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) prevented recovery of NMDA receptors from calcineurin-mediated...
