Downregulation of myocardial beta-adrenergic receptors. Receptor subtype selectivity.
T he desensitization (loss of response) and downregulation (loss of receptors) of p-adrenergic receptors (,BAR) have been observed in several cardiac conditions, including certain forms of heart failure and hypertension. The inability of the failing heart to respond to inotropic agents such as catecholamines represents a major clinical problem. The downregulation of 131AR associated with certai...
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...
متن کاملThe Principles of Ligand Specificity on beta-2-adrenergic receptor
G protein-coupled receptors are recognized as one of the largest families of membrane proteins. Despite sharing a characteristic seven-transmembrane topology, G protein-coupled receptors regulate a wide range of cellular signaling pathways in response to various physical and chemical stimuli, and prevail as an important target for drug discovery. Notably, the recent progress in crystallographic...

ion fluxes in these cells, we have now examined the possibility that the decrease in beta receptor number might be associated with concomitant changes in catecholamine-dependent potassium ion transport. Hypothyroid turkey erythrocytes display decreased sensitivity to isoproterenol-stimulated potassium influx. Half-maximal stimulation of potassium influx occurs at 9.2±+1.7 nM in hypothyroid cell...
